Game making help

programming flash
1

I am currently creating a platform game using FLASH MX and would be very grateful if somone could tell me how I could have simple actions performed when two movie clips collide.

I have created a movable character MC and I need for the scene to change when it comes into contact with a door MC.

I also need for the positon of the character MC to change when it collides with a bad guy MC so that when the character comes into contact with a bad guy it is zapped back to the start or for the scene to restart or anything.

Can anybody please help :q: I am soooo desperate!!!

PS I have seen the collision detection tutorial and still don’t know how to do this.

Thank you :m:

you ahve

if (_root.mcname, hitTest(_root.mcname2)){
//all the actions you want here
}

i guess to make the character zap back youd put something like

character._x=0;
character._y=0;

insisde the if statement assuming you want it to move to 0,0

and to change scenes, youd probably put _root.gotoAndStop(2);
where each frame on root is a different scene. not to sure about aht though.
