hittest help

i type in this code and it dousent do any thing

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (root.hero, hitTest(root.wall)) {
gotoAndPlay (2);
}
}

any help here

onClipEvent (enterFrame) { if (root.hero.hitTest(root.wall)) { gotoAndPlay(2); } }

The reason there is a dot between the hero and the hitTest() function is because hero is a MovieClip. hitTest() is a MovieClip method (a function associated with MovieClips), and the correct method notation for an instance method (one that is applied to one individual MovieClip as opposed to the MovieClip class in general) is instanceName.function(), in this case root.hero.hitTest(root.wall)

What’s with the comma XD

ok what are you trying to do? where is the code located? and for goto and play do you want the scene to play or a movie clip?

i want the scean to play

If you want it to go to a different scene, you have to pass two parameters to gotoAndPlay.

gotoAndPlay( scene , frame )

Where scene is a string that contains the name of the scene you want to play.

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
	if (_root.hero.hitTest(_root.wall)) {
		_root.gotoAndPlay(2);
	}
}

and go and stick this in hero…and make sure…that the wall’s instance name is “wall” same with hero. im not sure if it will work but as far as i know it will

Put this in the frame so it’s easier lolz. And for “?”, which is I have no idea what “variable” or scene you wanted, just replace it what you want.

onEnterFrame = function() {
if (_root.hero.hitTest(_root.wall))
_root.?.gotoAndPlay(2);
}
}

I’m lazy to put it in Flash lolz.
