HitTest, Or Not. BTW, Your A God G'Paris.
// Three different scripts below.. 0 of 3 work.
// Where am I going wrong?

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {

with (_root.beetle) {
if (walls.hitTest){speed = 0};

}
}

// (Above Script)
// This is 'meant' to stop the "beetle" from moving.
// It keeps going at speed 7 though


onClipEvent (enterFrame) {

with (_root.beetle) {
if (this.hitTest){speed = 0};

}
}

// This stops it from moving even if it's not touching
// the wall. (Above AS)
//
// And This next one, stops the beetle from moving
// even if it is not touching the wall once again.

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {

with (_root.beetle) {
if (this.hitTest)speed = 0;

else if (this.hitTest ne True)speed = 7;
}

}

// Does anyone have any idea what is wrong in any
// of these scripts?

// Thank You all, 'Dox

Note To G Paris
Hi G

Thanks fo rhelping us out yesterday, unfortunately still no cigar.

I just wanted to add that I have run a trace command and it is definitely going out of the clip into the main timeline and targeting itself.

Left the trace command in in a frame in the main timeline directly above the sleep clip.

Damn weird hey

thanks again

PARIS HILTON...needs Dynamic Text Help
Did I get your attention? Now that you are here you might as well read this. I am desprate and need help!

I have a project (attached)... I need to have sevral different buttons use the same dynamic text box to import text into from one .txt file. I am not sure how to program the variable for the box or buttons? Do I need to reset it?
Take a look at the enclosed file. How can I do this???
THANK YOU!!!
J
Notes for attached file:
The only country that works currently is S. America- Brazil.
All of the counrties need to use the same text box and txt file when rolled over.
Is this possible????

Real FlashKit Guru Needed. C'mon G'Paris
Does anyone know AS to put a .HitTest into this?
(The lower script is a MM Flash MX Sample Script)
To where the "Beetle" Stops if it hits a wall, or if your a real guru, to where the beetle goes around a wall (Wall meaning other MC)

TY - 'DOX

onClipEvent (load) {
// declare and set initial variables and properties
clickSpot_x = _x;
clickSpot_y = _y;
speed = 7;
clickMode = true;
turnMode = false;
}
onClipEvent (mouseDown) {
//
// set position of target spot when mouse is clicked
if (clickMode && _root._xmouse>125 && _root._xmouse<465) {
clickSpot_x = _root._xmouse;
clickSpot_y = _root._ymouse;
}
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
// toggle button icon visibility
_root.curve._visible=turnMode;
_root.pointer._visible=!clickMode;
//
// deterimine whether target spot is the clicked spot or the mouse pointer
if (clickMode) {
gotoSpotX = clickSpot_x;
gotoSpotY = clickSpot_y;
} else{

gotoSpotY = _root._ymouse;

//
// calculate angle of current position to target position

//

}
//
// move beetle toward the target and stop when it gets there
if (Math.sqrt((delta_x*delta_x)+(delta_y*delta_y))>sp eed) {

_x += speed*Math.sin(_rotation*(Math.PI/180));
}
//
// loop to opposite side of the masked area when the beetle travels off-screen
if (_y<0) {

_y = 0;
}
