Help me

[bombsledder]

alright say that you have a game were a block goes back and

fourth and if the block hits a wall it will stop and just not move in

that direction. how would i do this.... thanks in advance

[flash4food]

its actually really easy

assuming the movement of the block is actionscripted and the wall is a mc with instance name wall, just use the hitTest function on the onClipEvent handler like this

if(this.hitTest(_parent.wall)){
//code for stopping the mc here
//for example speed=0
}

alright so how would i be able to make the move clip stop when it

hits the wall...something like this...

if(this.hitTest(_parent.wall)){
this._x+=0
}

[bombsledder]

if that is not right please help

[flash4food]

its not right

you have to have a variable that controls the speed

say u previously had

onClipEvent(load){
speed=4
}
onClipEvent(enterframe){
_x+=speed
}

you add to the enterframe

if(this.hitTest(_parent.wall)){
speed = 0
}
