    Question [MX] Hit Test??? Wierd One...

    I'm trying to do a hit test on a movie clip, but it's animated, and the sides are constantly changing. It's sort of an off circle, like a blob. I cant have a rectangular hit test because, well, its not rectangular. >.<

    Please help, any thing is appriciated!

    Why not doing an invisible inner movie clip with wich the real collision is checked on?

    place the "collision" mc inside the movie clip you want, set its _visible to false and then instead of if (this.hitTest(... you go if(this.collision.hitTest.

    the same problem will happen, just with a different movieclip.

    you want shape based hitTest:

    if(blob.hitTest(point.x, point.y, true)){

    trace("a point hit the shape");
    }

    awaits response "yeah cool, how do I get another shape to hit the blob"
    lather yourself up with soap - soap arcade
