[NonoSoso]

hi
i am making a drag drop game.
i created a doc class for the dragged items .
i want to make the hit test with some movie clips on the stage but inside the class they are not seen by there names.
how to perform my hit test


this is my code,and target1_mc &target2_mc are movie clips on the stage

package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.text.TextField;




public class recipeMC extends MovieClip {



private var startX:Number;
private var startY:Number;
private var counter:Number=0;




public function recipeMC() {
this.mouseChildren = false;
this.buttonMode = true;
this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, pickUp);
this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropIt);
}
private function pickUp(event:MouseEvent):void {
this.startDrag(true);
this.parent.addChild(this);
startX = this.x;
startY = this.y;

}
private function dropIt(event:MouseEvent):void {
this.stopDrag();



if (this.hitTestObject(event.target.target1_mc)
||this.hitTestObject(event.target.target2_mc) ) {
this.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, pickUp);
this.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropIt);
this.buttonMode = false;
this.x = myTarget.x;
this.y = myTarget.y;
counter++;
} else {
//reply_txt.text = "Try Again!";
this.x = startX;
this.y = startY;
}

}
}
}




can any one help???

What is RecipeMC? Is it the MovieClip you are trying to do the hitTest on target1_mc and target2_mc with?

[NonoSoso]

recipeMc is the class name of the object in the libraray which is called also the same name.

and right it is the object i want to hit with

i am sorry this is not document class ,it is the class of certain movieclip

If target1_mc and target2_mc are on the stage at runtime then the document class will be able to reference them. So in recipeMc you can do

package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.text.TextField;

public class recipeMC extends MovieClip {
private var startX:Number;
private var startY:Number;
private var counter:Number=0;
var documentclass:*;////////////////////

public function recipeMC() {
this.mouseChildren = false;
this.buttonMode = true;
this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, pickUp);
this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropIt);
}
private function pickUp(event:MouseEvent):void {
this.startDrag(true);
this.parent.addChild(this);
startX = this.x;
startY = this.y;

}
private function dropIt(event:MouseEvent):void {
this.stopDrag();
documentclass = this.parent;

if (this.hitTestObject(documentclass.target1_mc)/////////////////
||this.hitTestObject(documentclass.target2_mc) ) {///////////////
this.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, pickUp);
this.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropIt);
this.buttonMode = false;
this.x = myTarget.x;
this.y = myTarget.y;
counter++;
} else {
//reply_txt.text = "Try Again!";
this.x = startX;
this.y = startY;
}

}
}
} 

Doing event.target.target1_mc is wrong because event.target means the object that triggered the event. So the object that triggered this MOUSE_UP event is recipeMc, and target1_mc and target2_mc are not children of recipeMc.
