[Point n Click] Inventory

[good92]

Hey guys i'm trying to create a point n click game using AS3 and external files and i'm having a hard time to get the invetory working.

So let me explain that better...

The game I want to create is an escape game ( You're locked in a room and need to find itens and hints to get out of there)

On my .fla file (Teste.fla) there's a hammer handle and a hammer head. Both are movieclips (head name = cabeca and handle name = cabo).

Here are my codes so far.

Cabo.as:

package{
		public class Cabo extends Teste
	{
	}
}

Cabeca.as:

package{
		public class Cabeca extends Teste
	{
	}
}

Teste.as:

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

	public class Teste extends MovieClip
	{		
		public function Teste():void
		{
			buttonMode = true;
			addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, pegaritem);
		}
		
		protected function pegaritem (e:MouseEvent):void
		{
			parent.addChild(this);
			trace("pegou "+name);
			x = 50;
			y = 330;
			
			width=50;
			scaleX=scaleY;
			
			if(height>50)
				{
				height=50;
				scaleX=scaleY;
				}
				
			removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, pegaritem);
		}
	}
}

So the problem is: When I click on a movieclip (cabeca or cabo), they move to the same position.

What I want to do is to get the side by side separated by a few pixels.

I've been looking for a solution and i found out that i should arrange them on an Array... But unfortunately I have no idea how to do that.


I'm pretty new to using AS3 and external files.


Anyone has an idea how i can do that?

When you extend a class you're basically copy+pasting the code onto your new class. An array would be useful if you're working with an undetermined number of items. If you have like 2 items then don't worry about it. If you want to arrange things than you need to do so by using relative positions. So itemB.x = itemA.x+itemA.width and itemB.y = itemA.y Something like this would be simplest. Or you could do itemB.x+=itemA.width because they're being positioned in the same spot.
