Hi,

I have a small game thats incorporated into an ecard. basically you have to hit an object that appears randomly on a grid.  
My problem is everytime you hit the object … it goes from 1-10 very quickly does not record 1 hit at a time…

I have asked this question before, and previously I had used a && Beenhit variable in an if else statement which worked fine with 2 MC’s. But it does not seem to work with the mouse hit test.

this is what I am using:  
[AS]  
sb.onEnterFrame = function() {  
if (this.hitTest(\_root.\_xmouse, \_root.\_ymouse, true)) {  
\_root.score ++ ;  
\_root.flasher.gotoAndPlay(10);  
}  
[/AS]

Any ideas …  
Thanx V much. mako 🙂
