RE: FLASH: Cool video games

[Dunn, Jeff]

I followed a tutorial to get the collision detection for the Ozzy bat game:

http://www.webn.com/flash/bats.swf

http://www.webn.com/flash/bats.fla

and everything worked fine.  As per the tutorial, I made two empty objects

on the stage called subroutines and call_check which contain the logic in

frame behaviors linked to tell-target actions which jump the target movie

clip to a particular frame.


The problem started when I tried to use the same logic on my new game:

http://www.webn.com/flash/sean2.swf

http://www.webn.com/flash/sean2.fla

This is a boxing game.  You can drag Sean Penn by hovering over him and

click to punch.  The red circle is the "fist"  In order to make it work, I

need collision detection between two nested movie clips.  I thought I had

referred to the nested clips using the right "path."  But, either I am wrong

about this or there is some other reason that the game won't function.  I

have included links to the fla files to further illustrate my difficulty.

If anyone has any suggestions or comments, I would greatly appreciate them.

cool game,

only weird thing is that you can kill one guy about 7 times and it keeps

racking

up points for each click you do on him...er...it (alien).  :-)  any way to

make

them disappear after they get hit once?
