[ H3LP ] Find object?

Hello, how I can check if a MovieClip exists in another?

Basically I need to check if a "SolidPoint" (represented by a red X) is "inside" of the object clicked by the mouse and block the player's movement if true.

Code:

---

function CBaseUI_MouseDown(e:MouseEvent):void
{
        // If find SolidPoint in e.target, do not move the player
        _player.moveTo(mouseX, mouseY);
}

If you are tracking it through the mouse event I use trace(e.target.name) or trace(e.target.parent.name) or event if you are wanting to look through all of the movieclips inside of it you can check trace(e.target.numChildren); to find all itsclips and check through each name like
trace(e.target.getChildAt(0).name)

trace(e.target.getChildAt(1).name)

But, name retrieves the instance of the object and not the class, so basically I would have to instantiate the object manually, correct?

I will do some tests with myself.

MovieClip(e.target.getChildAt(0)).gotoAndStop(2)

Well, let's just say that in the end, my idea didn't work out so well. I'm trying to create a "point and click" RPG, but the logic to plot a valid path (stopping the movement or circumventing when there is an obstacle) is difficult. Maybe you have a suggestion?

If this is a tile based game, you can use a* path finder which I have, but you should have some bytecode based map to read off of as well, is that a 3d game? looks like an image of some walls ready for rotationY to be used. And lol I hated when I got the Spanish flash, I posted in as3 section my adobe account so you can download adobe animate which has as3

Actually it's not a fps haha, despite the low level graphic, I'm thinking of developing a game based on Diablo 1 (PS1) and hack slash crawl (flash). About the adobe animate, ok, I will try to search!

Oh could the iso Ive been writing to that?

In as2 that's way easier, but this one I wrote in as3 there is no room for error I use a depth method for the tiles called core 2 quad because you handle the core tiles separate from the 4 sides.

Hi

All very good and well alloy, but what on earth has that last post got to do with the original post and how is it going to help them.

I smell strangeness going on here.

Diablo 1 looks like an iso scroller isn't that what he wants as the end result anyways

Hi

Sometimes you make no sense and are just trying to advertise yourself and your stuff.

I hope the op can get their answer from your videos.
