[COLOR=#333333][FONT=adobe-clean]Hi - I’m trying to make my cloudExplosion mc appear at the same position as a tile/actor mc clicked. That actor mc is inside a point vector and those point vectors are inside an Object vector.[/FONT][/COLOR]  
[COLOR=#333333][FONT=adobe-clean]cloudExplosion.x = tileVector[visitedVector\*.x][visitedVector\*.y][/FONT][/COLOR]  
[COLOR=#333333][FONT=adobe-clean] [/FONT][/COLOR]  
[COLOR=#333333][FONT=adobe-clean]I trace this out and I get [object Object] - I am trying to get the coordinates not the object itself.[/FONT][/COLOR]  
[COLOR=#333333][FONT=adobe-clean] [/FONT][/COLOR]  
[COLOR=#333333][FONT=adobe-clean]I tried tracing the vector point and I got the coordinates BUT an error too - couldn’t find the property (x=5, y=2),(x=4, y=3),(x=5, y=4) in vec.Vector.\<Object\>[/FONT][/COLOR]  
[COLOR=#333333][FONT=adobe-clean]trace(tileVector[visitedVector]);[/FONT][/COLOR]  
[COLOR=#333333][FONT=adobe-clean] [/FONT][/COLOR]  
[COLOR=#333333][FONT=adobe-clean]Well, I want those vector coordinates so my animation mc can appear in all the places where the tiles/actors are clicked.[/FONT][/COLOR]
