I know you because I used to go on Newgrounds a lot…Until it started to \*\*\*\* up my computer cause of the p-o-r-n-o ads… 🙂 I went on the forums and boy talk about buttload of s.hit. I saw your topic **Actionscript Codes Here** or something like that. You helped out a looootttt! Too bad I don’t remember anything you wrote.

There’s a parameter in hitTest where you can set the bounding box to false. Look it up in the actionscript dictionary.
