hit test still doesnt work, its difficult for me to sort any small problems as i dont know arrays (only the basics), i will learn arrays properly, funny thing is i can create maps with arrays but just not the whole push and splice thing although i have read through stuff about those commands, ill show you the code i have done for you to see where i have gone wrong.

actually it might be easier to post the fla file, cheers for the help so far.
