1st person shooter ****Test misery

1

Hi, I’m new here and am a beginner learning AS3, all code is my own as I’m really trying to learn. What this code attempts is it creates 2 moving boxes, and you click on them to “shoot them”, I didn’t want to use buttons due to lack of flexibility. So I decided by clicking you would create an object that would hittest against the box, well, it seems like the “box”, will not hitTest the “firearm”, I have rewritten this code many ways and no success. It seems like a scope problem. With code in current configuration I receive Access of undefined property nb error.

Code Below.

package{
import flash.display.;
import flash.events.;

public class BoxAttack extends MovieClip{
    public var fireArray = new Array();
    public var boxArray = new Array();
    
    public function BoxAttack(){
        
        //fires gun!
        stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, fired);
        
        
        //creates a couple random sized/placed/scaling boxes!!
        for(var i:int; i<2; i++){
        
        var nb = new Box(Math.random()*500, Math.random()*400, Math.random()*3, Math.random()*3, Math.random()*.001, Math.random()*.001);
         addChild(nb);
         
         
        }
        
    }
    
    //mouse fires!
    public function fired(eveter:MouseEvent){
        trace('working!');
        
        fireArray.push(addChild(new fireArm));
        trace(fireArray);
        for(var t:int; t<=fireArray.length; t++){
            if(fireArray[t].hitTestObject(nb)){
                 trace('hit');
            }
        }
        
        
    }
}

}
