FLASH: collision detection

[Kenneth Austin]

i'm writing a platform shooter game in flash, and the engine is nearly

completed. now that i look back i'm wondering if it would be faster to do

all the collision of everything that needs to collide on the screen in one

loop while statement, or even an array.  right now i have the collision

being checked from within each movie clip of the enemies as they appear, and

i'm trying speed up the processes the best i can.


i hope this is clear enough


has anyone worked on a complex platform shooter? is anyone from pepworks on

this list?




ps where's flashkit?
