i’m new to doing anything with 3d in flash and have a few questions.
i have a game where i have items coming down the z axis at a character at the base of the stage. all of the elements are embeded in a movieclip ‘ground’ that i’m moving down the z axis. question
1)i can get the z position of the elements in ‘ground’ relative to the stage. when i try and get the z position of the items it’s always a static reference to the ‘ground’ movie clip. also how would i get the x position relative to the stage?
2)what’s the best way to determine hit collisions with the items hitting the character? I’m thinking i’ll have to check the item’s z position(re #1 above) and then determine it’s x position and if when it’s in the z range if it’s also in the x range it’s a hit. is there a better way to do this?
thanks.
