So you've basically used a movement tut? well, head over to flashkit.com go to tuts >games > and look for your topic, I tried once making a game , got the guy to walk, have a helath bar, points, but couldn't set his boundaries so i gave up.

unelss of course this site has a tut on it somewhere

you need to set a hittest. a hit test tells you when one object is hitting another hints the name. the code for this is

if (this.hitTest(VarName)) {
}

you put this code on one of the 2 mc's that you are trying to detect and put the other movieclips name in place of VarName. now to make it go to another frame you just modify the code to say

if (this.hitTest(VarName)) {
gotoAndPlay(6);
}

And of course you will replace the 6 with your desired frame.

if this doesnt help or you have another question feel free to email me at [email protected] and i will try and help you out.

well actually if ur pasting the code into a movie clip it would look like this.

if(hitTest(this._parent.instance name)) {
_root.gotoAndPlay(6);
}
