Script Wrong? Help Please...hitTest

Code:

---

onClipEvent(enterFrame){
        if(this.hitTest(_root.targe-1)){
                                        score += 10;
                                        }
}

---

Whats wrong with this?
I want it to add 10 to Var "score" when it hits "targe-1"...

My guess would be that it's not reading 'targe-1' correctly... probably interpreting it as targe minus one. Not sure, though.

Okay, thanks..

onClipEvent(enterFrame){
if(this.hitTest(_root.targe1)){
_root.score += 1;
}
}

This is my script now, but it adds up 1+1+1+1+1=11111, insteed of 1+1+1+1+1=5 as i need...

Whats wrong?

You probably have to define _root.score as a Number; it seems to be interpreting it as a string.

Try

code:

---

Number(_root.score) += 1;

---

instead.

That didnt work, errors..

Ah, I see. I tried it out and I got the same error; apparently Number() can't be on the left side of an equation... it works if you type it this way, however.

code:

---

_root.score = Number(_root.score) + 1;

---

at the beginning of your code put:
var scrore:Number = 0

that way when you use the score varirable Flash will know that its a number instead of a string

Thanks Dude!

No problem.:)
