Im using some actionscript in a button, it uses the **on(keypress “\< HOME \>”)** actionscript. Then it checks if a MC called **neo** has come into contact with an MC called **openDoorE**. It should then play an MC called **wallEDoor**. But it opens it regradless of whether **neo** has hit **openDoorE**. Here is the code im using.
_on(keyPress “\”){
if(\_root.neo, hitTest(\_root.openDoorE)){
\_root.wallEDoor.play();
\_root.switchDoorEhandle.nextFrame();
}
}_
Help appricated!?!?!?!

your hitTest is wrong… try this instead:
```auto
if (_root.neo.hitTest(_root.openDoorE)) {
```
by the way, welcome to kirupa forum!! =)
