Drag and Drop issue

Hi,

I am updating these files, and I ran across a problem with the drag and drops allowing for the drag objects to be able to drop on the same target, I have tried a few different things to fix it, but I seem to be missing something…

DD Code:
var maxDepth:Number = 200;
init = function(){
for(i=1; i<=numQuestions; i++){
//occupied* = false;
//trace("these are "+occupied*);
drag_mc = this[“drag”+i];
target_mc = this[“drop”+i];
trace("target_mc initial values = "+target_mc);
drag_mc.num = i;
drag_mc.whereDropped = 0;
drag_mc.onPress = function(){
this.swapDepths(maxDepth+i);
this.startDrag();
this.initX = this._x;
///target_mc = undefined;
//checkTarget(target_mc);

    }
    drag_mc.onRelease = function(){
        this.swapDepths(maxDepth);
        this.stopDrag();
        var dt:String = this._droptarget
        var dropNum = Number(substring(dt,4,1));
        drag_mc.whereDropped = dropNum;
        //trace("dt = " + this.whereDropped)
        //trace("getProperty(this._droptarget, _x) = " + getProperty(this._droptarget, _x))
        trace("this is the target = "+target_mc);
        checkTargets();
        if (dt.indexOf("dz",dt.lastIndexOf(".")) &gt; 0)
        {
            target_mc = this._droptarget;
            trace("this is where this is being droped:"+this._droptarget+" also the target mc is equal to "+target_mc);
            if(target_mc != undefined){
                this._x = getProperty(this._droptarget, _x);
                this._y = getProperty(this._droptarget, _y);
                target_mc = this._droptarget;
                trace("target_mc value durring successful drop = "+target_mc);
            } else {
                
                trace("target_mc value durring unsuccessful drop = "+target_mc);
                trace("origX = "+this.origX+" and initX = "+this.initX);
                if(this.origX == this.initX){
                    trace("origX = "+this.origX+" and initX = "+this.initX);
                    this._x = this.origX;
                    this._y = this.origY;
                    target_mc = undefined;
                }
                //target_mc = undefined;  test to see if the drag that occupied this item is what was moved...
                trace("target_mc value durring unsuccessful drop2 = "+target_mc);
            }
        }
        else
        {
            
            if(this.origX != this.initX){
                    trace("origX = "+this.origX+" and initX = "+this.initX);
                    this._x = this.origX;
                    this._y = this.origY;
                    target_mc = undefined;
            }
            
            trace("target_mc value durring outside drop = "+target_mc);
        }
    }    
}

}
init();

Sorry for the jumbled code, I got to a &*%^ it point. :stuck_out_tongue:

Thanks,
