[F8] MC Barriers...

Barriers
I've been making an RPG with buildings, and my guy walks straight over them! Can someone tell me how to stop it? Thanks

Barriers
In Flash Mx 2004 (educational only) I've got a car movement document.

But I want a barrier but I don't know the actionscript. The car name is: car and the instance:car__


Thanks Sephers

Stuck With Some Barriers
Hello, I have a movie clip of a ball. And it follows the mouse using this code.


Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
_x = 0;
_y = 0;
speed = 5;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
endX = _root._xmouse;
endY = _root._ymouse;
_x += (endX-_x)/speed;
_y += (endY-_y)/speed;
}
This trails the ball, which is what I want. However, the ball follows the mouse wherever it goes. Is there a way to limit it to only be able to go to 400 on the X scale, and only 200 on the Y? If it's not with this code, could someone help me with a code that can?

Thanks

My New Method For Barriers: Sticky
This probably isn't the best way to do it because it doesn't really work but I will take credit for trying

What this does is basicly if you hit the object that you want to be a barrier it will delet the variables that allow you to move. I just thought of it when I was working on my game. Here is a sample scriptsyntex is off.)

OnClipEvent(enterFrame);
If(this.hitTest(_root.BARRIER);
//now just delete variables that allow you to move//
delete Maxspeed;
delete Move;

As you can see very simple. This is because I am a very simple person when it comes to actionscripting( and I'm only 13) but it seeams to work ok if you can get out of the barrier. LOL not the best so I am wondering if anyone has a code or an example .fla for barriers. Just for squares and rectangles. No circles. I hope someone can help. And if not plz give me feed back on my method and if you will use it (probably not) Thx

[F8] HitTest Objects Barriers
I want to make two controlled clips that stop when they collide, for some reason, they dont stop right. I uploaded an example here:

example





Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
yspeed = 0;
xspeed = 0;
wind = 0.00;
power = 10;
gravity = 1;
upconstant = 0.75;
friction = .5;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
xspeed -= 20;
this._xscale = -100;
Play();

}
else if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
xspeed += 20;
this._xscale = 100;
Play();
}
else if (Key.isDown(Key.ENTER)) {
this.gotoAndStop(13);
}
else if (Key.isDown(Key.SHIFT)) {
this.gotoAndStop(14);
}
else if (Key.isDown(Key.CONTROL)) {
this.gotoAndStop(15);
}
else if ((Key.isDown(Key.DOWN)) and (_root.sky.hitTest(this))) {
yspeed += 5;
Play();

}

else if ((Key.isDown(Key.UP)) and (_root.ground.hitTest(this))) {
_y -= 2;
yspeed -= 15;
gravity = 1;
play();

}
else {
this.gotoAndStop(1);
}

if (_root.ground.hitTest(this)){
yspeed = 0;
gravity = 0;
_y = 338;
}
if ((Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) and (_root.right1.hitTest(this))) {
xspeed = 0 ;
}
if ((Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) and (_root.right1.hitTest(this))) {
xspeed = 0 ;
}

xspeed = (xspeed+wind)*friction;
yspeed = yspeed+gravity;
_y = _y+yspeed;
_x = _x+xspeed;


}
