I have an array with objects in it called square+square_num. There are 15 of them in total, and I am trying to get a hit test for them. But it isn't working.

onClipEvent(enterFrame){

    for(i=1;i<=15;i++){

        if(this.hitTest(_root["square"+i])){

            _root.sqaure_base.speed = 0;

        }

        else{

            _root.sqaure_base.speed = 5;

        }

    }

}

That could is from the object that is being run into. Please help if you can or if more code is needed just say so.

onClipEvent(enterFrame){

    for(i=1;i<=15;i++){

        if(this.hitTest(_root.["square"+i])){

            _root.square_base.speed = 0;

        }

        else{

            _root.square_base.speed = 5;

        }

    }

}

Bolded the bits I changed. Just a '.' and spelling (I think)

Where does the square_num come in?

He's using variable 'i' to represent the number of squares I think.

Yeah, Scorpio fixed the code as far as I can see. What you did was just typo's really, you missed a . on _root. and you miss-spelled square in the speed lines but the code I think you did correctly

I fixed up the typos. But when I added the "." for the hit test part. It returned an error.

Edit:

Got it working, I needed to change the ["square"+i]'s speed not the base movie clips one >_>
