Featured Tutorial: 3D Trails Using Swift 3D and Flash This tutorial explains how to use an array for hitTest purposes. Most tutorials show how to duplicate movieClips for games (or other purposes), but when looked at carefully are very inefficient. This tutorial looks at creating an array which holds the 'names' of the duplicated clips, then when we do a loop to check for hits, the loop only searches for clips that exist.
