How to avoid the NaN value? Help!

[castorGraphiko]

i have this code:


function mover (e:Event):void
{
if (e.currentTarget.scaleX > 1.39)
{
e.currentTarget.auxScl = -1;
}

if (e.currentTarget.scaleX < 0.71)
{
e.currentTarget.auxScl = 1;
}

e.currentTarget.scaleX += e.currentTarget.auxScl / 1000;
e.currentTarget.scaleY=e.currentTarget.scaleX;

e.currentTarget.z=e.currentTarget.scaleX;
SimpleZSorter.sortClips (container);

distX=e.currentTarget.dx-e.currentTarget.x;
distY=e.currentTarget.dy-e.currentTarget.y;
e.currentTarget.x+=distX/Math.abs(distX);
e.currentTarget.y+=distY/Math.abs(distY);

posX=Math.round(e.currentTarget.x);
posY=Math.round(e.currentTarget.y);


if (posX==e.currentTarget.dx||posY==e.currentTarget.d y)
{
e.currentTarget.dx = Math.round((Math.random() * 60) + 150);
e.currentTarget.dy = Math.round((Math.random() * 150) + 245);


}

}

it supposed that the e.currentTarget be continuously moving, when the e.currentTarget.x reaches the e.currentTarget.dx (or y to dy) position, gets a new position to move on. The code seems to work and does for a while, but suddenly the e.currentTarget disappears from the scene, this is because the .x value of the e.currentTarget gets NaN. Somebody can tell me how to avoid that the x value gets NaN?

Please I really need your help!!!!

Thanks for reading.

I'd guess you're running into a division by zero at some point. Try checking your values before you apply them to things:

if(isNaN(n)) n = 0;

a few things I see: Depending on the speeds your objects are traveling at, they may pass right through the posX or posY.
If e.currentTarget.dx == e.currentTarget.x, then distX will be 0, and dividing by it will get you NaN. Same with ys.

Yes, as you said when the x gets 0 was divided by 0 getting NaN.

Solved...

Thanks!
