im currently creating a game which involves getting a coin( cant get the score to rise above 1)
and the coin vanishes off screen
so plz correct this code(as2):
if (_root.coin.hitTest(hero_collect)) {
_root.coin._x = Math.random()*500+50;
_root.coin._y = Math.random()*500+50;
++_root.scorenumber;
_root.score = "Score: " + _root.scorenumber;
}
SUPER THANKS!!!

I figured out first problem... the disappearing thing
Its quite an easy solution

_root.coin._x = Math.random()*500+50;
_root.coin._y = Math.random()*500+50;

that means your coin will re appear at 550 on the x and y axis when your file is only 500x400...

_root.coin._x = Math.random()*400;
_root.coin._y = Math.random()*500;

sorry it will still disappear from screen sometimes unless you subtract coins width from 400. and height from 500... and that border you have around might also hide it
