hitTest problem

[thisspace4rent]

Actionscript v2. MX2004

How do i stop my man bumping into a wall? This is my script so far,

if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
play();
_x += movespeed;

man.hitTest(_x+1, _y, true){need script for not letting man move to right}

Please correct my script if it is wrong and if possible, provide me with the code for not letting man move to right. (The wall's instance name is "walls")

Hi.

One thing you could do is to check if the man is hitting the wall: if not, he will be able to walk, else he will stop.

code:

---

if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {

play();

if (!this.hitTest(_root.wall._x+1, _root.wall._y, true){

_x += movespeed;

}

}

There are others ways to do this however. Try this one.

Hope it helped.

EDIT:

code:

---

if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {

play();

if (!this.hitTest(_root.walls._x+1, _root.walls._y, true){

_x += movespeed;

}

}
