Game problem (simple) help please!

[Zak]

ok well i just have a simple shooting game but the only problem is when you shoot and then move the "tank" left and right to shoot again the bullets move with you, any help would be apprecitated, thanks.

actions of "tank" (instance name bug)

on (keyPress "<Left>") {
currentX = this._x;
this._x = currentX - 5;
}
on (keyPress "<Right>") {
currentX = this._x;
this._x = currentX + 5;
}
on (keypress "<Space>") {
_root.fire = 1;
_root.i += 1;
duplicateMovieClip(_root.bullet, "bullet"+i, i);
}

And this is the actions of the bullet (instance name bullet)

onClipEvent (load) {
this._visible = 0;
if (_root.fire == 1) {
this._x = _root.bug._x;
this._y = _root.bug._y;
}
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (this != _level0.bullet) {
if (_root.fire == 1) {
this._y -= 5;
this._visible = 1;
}
if (this._y<0) {
this.removeMovieClip();
}
}
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (_root.bullet, hitTest(_root.block)) {
_root.total = _root.total + 10;
} else {
_root.total = _root.total - 0;
}
}

And it is supposed to hit a target (instance name block), it still does but when i move the bug / tank it moves everything, any help would be appreciated.

At a first look - there is a bug:


onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
// bug: if (_root.bullet, hitTest(_root.block)) {
if (_root.bullet.hitTest(_root.block)) {
_root.total += 10;
} else {
_root.total -= 0;
}
}

And here are the Key-Codes:


if(Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)){
this._x += 5;
}
else if(Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)){
this._x -= 5;
}
else if(Key.isDown(Key.SPACE)){
_root.fire = 1;
_root.i += 1;
duplicateMovieClip(_root.bullet, "bullet"+i, i);

}
