Forums → Programming Forum → [Need help] hittest only works once?

btw maybe it is easier to do it in a class, but how??

To make a class, right click on the movieclip in the library and check the box labelled "export for ActionScript" Then, create a new actionscript file and add the code:

Class (MovieClip Name Here) extends MovieClip
{
function onEnterFrame()
{
if(this.hitTest(_root.wall))
{
_x = -50;
}
}
}

could not load class :S (i made it correct)

Is it saved as the exact name as what you entered in the export for actionscript box? (it's case sensitive)
Did you save it in the same folder?
is the begining part where you have the movieclip's name spelled correctly? (it's also case sensitive)

Oh, whoops, and make class lowercase, sorry

sorry i ment:

ss folder\\ss.as: Line 1: Syntax error.
Class ss extends MovieClip

like I said, make class lowercase, sorry

what is that? o,o

omfg it was not that, you made a mistake in the script o.O!

you said "Class" instead of "class".

How to make a class with the moving of the char?
like this script:

tr();

function tr() {
speed = 0.2
muv = 0
friction = 0.99

}

onEnterFrame = function() {

if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT) or Key.isDown(68)) {
muv += speed;
}
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT) or Key.isDown(65)) {
muv -=speed;
}




ss._x += muv;
muv *= friction;
}

And I told you twice that I screwed it up and to make class lowercase.

Add "class (movieclip name) extends MovieClip{
//code
}

inside the code you have the same thing you already have, but take out the line "tr()" and change "function tr" to "function onLoad"

And if something doesn't work, change "onEnterFrame = function()" to "function onEnterFrame()" although what you have will probably work.

ss.as: Line 8: ActionScript 2.0 class scripts may only define class or interface constructs.
}

what is your code?
you have code inside the class frame besides creating variables..

function onLoad() {
speed = 0.5
muv = 0
friction = 0.99
}

function onEnterFrame() {

if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT) or Key.isDown(68)) {
muv += speed;
}
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT) or Key.isDown(65)) {
muv -=speed;
}




ss._x += muv; muv *= friction;
}

You need "class ss extends MovieClip{" before all of that, and an extra "}" at the end

And you don't need "ss._x" just use "_x"
