hitTest

1

help. i’m trying to make a simple game, where ‘things’ fall from the sky and ‘hit’ a person running across the screen.

I have two movie clips. One is of the person and the other a simple shape.

Both are movie clips with some 10 -20 frames of animation. but the hitTest doesn’t work… what am I doing wrong?
here’s my code:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (_root.bits_mc, hitTest(_root.bug_mc)) {
loadMovieNum(“splat.swf”, 0);

}

}

pleeese help.
