for loop and hittest

[genc27]

Hi,
I use arrow keys to collect five apples . I used hittest to make the collected apples invisible but there is a simple problem I can not fix..
thanks for any help

for(gi=0;gi<=5;gi++)
    {
    if(this.kare.hitTest(this.apple+gi)){
this.apple+gi._visible=false;
    }

I have no idea what are trying to do with that code.

I may be completely wrong but you might need to change... it into this:

for(gi=0;gi<=5;gi++)
{
if(this.hitTest(this.apple+[gi])){
this.apple+[gi]._visible=false;
}

What i did was remove "kare" and change "gi" to "[gi]".

If you have only five apples you can hitTest each one rather than using the extra variables, just a suggestion but if you want to use
"for(gi=0;gi<=5;gi++) " then its fine but it'll be slightly complicated.

Oh whoops, maybe you might want to change this.apple + [gi] to [ this.apple + gi ]

My code is similar to that...I also am having hitTest problems in my game.

Anyother suggetion please help..

for(gi=0;gi<=5;gi++)
{
if(this.kare.hitTest(this.apple+gi)){
this.apple+gi._visible=false;
}
}

my Hittest is supposed to work for more objects of same name...
Is there a method like ..getElementById().. flash..?
may be that way I can make it work ?
thanks

Hi,

Just if this the case: want to access multiple objects with names "apple0", "apple1", etc.. If yes, then try something like this:

(AS):

for(gi=0;gi<=5;gi++) { 
       var mc=this["apple"+gi]
    
       if(this.kare.hitTest(mc)){ 
           mc._visible=false; 
       }
}
