Webmaster Forum / Flash / Flash Actionscript / May 2005Creating boundaries for a game
I have created my first game, but as it currently stands, you can move the player off the screen forever to eternity. I would like to set it so that the actual border 550x400 is the limit and the player cannot cross these dimensions. How would I go about this? Regards!

Generally, you'll use an if() statement in the routine that causes your player to move. This routine presumably works in a frame loop (onEnterFrame handler) or setInterval(), so while you're doing what it takes to update the player's _x and _y properties, check their values to make sure they're no smaller than zero and no greater than 550 or 400, respectively.
