Using a For Loop with Hittest objects - I'm stuck!

Hi,
I’m trying to get something quite simple to work, but can’t figure out what’s happening here. I have five identical MCs (Bat characters), and the user can drag a bottle to feed them.

There is a hittest object (called WormEat) inside the bat’s head. When the bottle, which is attached to the cursor touches the bat’s head, it toggles to frame 2 of the bottle, which should play an animation of the liquid going down to empty.

This code is all working fine, except that when the code toggles to frame 2 of the bottle, it remains static. The animated Movie Clip doesn’t play. Any ideas??

If not, perhaps a Switch statement could work, but I’m not sure how to use that method with Hittest…

Thanks,
Matt

var DragArray:Array = [Bat1, Bat2, Bat3, Bat4, Bat5];
for (var i:int = 0; i < DragArray.length; i++) {
    
DragArray*.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, CollisionWorm);
}

function CollisionWorm(event:Event) {
var Bats:MovieClip = MovieClip(event.currentTarget);
var index:int = DragArray.indexOf(Bats);

Bottle.x = mouseX;
Bottle.y = mouseY;


if (Bottle.BottleHit.hitTestObject(Bats.BatEat)) {
        
        Bottle.gotoAndStop("Empty");
        Bats.gotoAndStop("eat");
        
        } 

else  {
    
Bottle.gotoAndStop("Full");
        
Bats.gotoAndStop("start");

}

}
