OK I think I have cracked it! I was going in the right direction earlier
with the localToGlobal thing
This is what I have done to fix it
[code]
var myPoint = new Object();
myPoint.x = _parent.game_mc.player_mc._x;
myPoint.y = _parent.game_mc.player_mc._y;
trace ("myPoint.x before = " + myPoint.x);
trace ("myPoint.y before = " + myPoint.y);
_parent.game_mc.localToGlobal(myPoint);
trace ("myPoint.x after = " + myPoint.x);
trace ("myPoint.y after = " + myPoint.y);
if (_level0.game_mc.bg_mc.hitTest(myPoint.x, myPoint.y,
true)) {
trace ("HIT RIVER BANK ****************");
}
[/code]
Thanks for all the help. What a waste of a day trying to fix one bug!!
Hi Paul,
The problem is that you attach it as Player_Object and refer to it as
mcDolphin.
Changing:
if (game_mc.bg_mc.hitTest(game_mc.mcDolphin._x, game_mc.mcDolphin._y, true))
{
Into:
if (game_mc.bg_mc.hitTest(game_mc.Player_Object._x,
game_mc.Player_Object._y, true)) {
Solves the problem.
Greetz,
Bernard
