i'm making a game where this character (nate), who is a couch potato, lost his remote, and needs to get it back. i'm an ok scripter, but i can't work with hittest to save my life.
I have nate, and i have an mc instance name, remote. i need it so that when nate runs into the remote, it plays the next scene.
this is what i have for the remote mc:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (this.hitTest(_root.nate)) {
true;
nextScene();
}
}
and nate walks right through it! can someone help me, please?
I was wondering if someone would help me out with a game engine Im working on.... I have an MC, with the linkage name of "house1" and an instance name "house1", And I have a button with :
on (release) {
attachMovie("house1", "house", 10);
_root.house.startDrag(true);
}
Then in the houses AS I have :
onClipEvent (mouseDown) {
this.stopDrag();
}
Now what that does is when you click on the button It takes the House MC, Now the Problem is I want it so that If you click on the button It will create another house MC without deleting the first? Hopefully I explained myself well enough :)
I am trying to get an actionscript that lets me toggle between 3 sets of graphic symbols. (Each set contains 30 symbols). Basically I want to create a little toggle menu that just changes the symbols. Can anyone help???

I think I know what you mean,do you want something where users can select a graphic e.g.dog and it will goto a pic of a dog?

Well, sorta. I want it to toggle between different classification. Light, Neutral, Dark. Light would show the 30 light symbols all on one frame, nuetral all nuetral, etc etc. Go here http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view.php?id=142163 and you will see what I am trying to do.

Okay, all you have to do is have the "house1" movie clip in the library. Now, put this on the button:
on (release) {
attachMovie("house1", "house" + j, j++);
this["house" + j].startDrag(true);
this["house" + j].onMouseDown = function() {
stopDrag();
this.onMouseDown = null;
};
}
And that should do the trick.
By the way, there is no need to have an instance of the house movie clip on stage.

Well I could help you on that but Onfortunatly I dont know what other scripts you've used and how the character is buld...
Anyways you could program the double wapens just as one weapon, but then put an animation in it that you see 2 guns...
Thanks, CrookedAsterisk the script does just what I wanted : )

No problem!
Oh, I just figured out how to do what I wanted. Trial and error works almost every time
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (this.hitTest(_root.nate)) {
true;
nextScene();
}
}
and nate walks right through it! can someone help me, please?
The code you have has only one problem. This is what you SHOULD use. Tell me if it works.
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (this.hitTest(_root.nate)) {
this.nextFrame();
}
}
Hope it does what you wanted. Later.

Hey guys, I finally created a somewhat smart enemy A.I. for my game. I'll give you the basic part of the code, its just the part that makes the enemy follow your player and you can change how fast you want him to follow eaily, I dont have time to give out the full tutorial on making a full attacking enemy.
here it is------------------
//--------------put this in your enemy---------------------
onClipEvent(load){
speed = 3;}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (_root.guy._x<this._x && !this.hitTest(_root.guy)) {
this._x -= speed;
_xscale = 10;
} else if (_root.guy._x>this._x && !this.hitTest(_root.guy)) {
this._x += speed;
_xscale = -10;
}
}
//---------------------put this in your guy-----------------------
onClipEvent(enterFrame({
if(Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)){
this._x+=10;}
else if(Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)){
this._x-=10;}
}
//----------------------code ends here------------------
Now you need your give your character the instance "guy", and now you can walk around and the enemy will follow you, this can be used to make escort games as well.
sorry guys, I made a small mistake in the "guy's" onClipEvent handler, its like this "(enterFrame(" please change it to "(enterFrame)".

Didn't test it but the code looks nice enough!

Here's a nice little script I know you guys will like...
Just put this on a blank frame and set the framerate to 20:
_global.sw = Stage.width;
_global.sh = Stage.height;
this.createEmptyMovieClip("border", 0);
with (border) {
lineStyle(3, 0xCCCCCC, 75);
lineTo(sw, 0);
lineTo(sw, sh);
lineTo(0, sh);
lineTo(0, 0);
}
this.createEmptyMovieClip("ship", 1);
with (ship) {
beginFill(0x333366, 85);
lineStyle(1, 0x000000);
moveTo(0, -15);
lineTo(-10, 15);
curveTo(0, 5, 10, 15);
lineTo(0, -15);
endFill();
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) _rotation -= 7;
if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) _rotation += 7;
gx = Math.cos((_rotation - 90) * (Math.PI / 180));
gy = Math.sin((_rotation - 90) * (Math.PI / 180));
if (Key.isDown(Key.UP)) {
ax += gx * 2;
ay += gy * 2;
} else {
ax *= .9;
ay *= .9;
}
_x += ax;
_y += ay;
if (_x < 0) _x = sw;
if (_x > sw) _x = 0;
if (_y < 0) _y = sh;
if (_y > sh) _y = 0;
if (ax > 15) ax = 15;
if (ay > 15) ay = 15;
if (ax < -15) ax = -15;
if (ay < -15) ay = -15;
};
}
Move with arrow keys.
I am making a platform game and it is going pretty well. I am having a problem with something though. I have a character obviously, but I have a platform that moves and I want the character to move with the platform when he jumps on it, but it doesn't work. The code I have is:
if (this.hitTest(_root.char)) {
_root.char._x = this._x;
}
but whenever they collide using that code the character just gets moved to the very edge of the screen. DOes anyone know how to fix this?

By that code, you're saying, "If the player's bounding box touches the platform's bounding box, then lock the player to the center of the platform."
You should really try another method for that.
CrookedAsterisk-
I know I need a new method. That's what I asked for. Can you help?
