[CS3] need help hittest

[hopies]

i made my character for a game and i made walls which work here is the code

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (_root.wall.hitTest(_x, _y, true)) {
xspeed = 0;
yspeed = 0;
}

but half of my character still goes through the wall before it acutally calls the code

how do i stop this?

please help

thanks Hopies

I usually use

if (this.hitTest(_root.wall)){
//do stuff
}

I find it a bit more efficient.

[hopies]

can anyone HELP please thanks
