I am Tookman, a high school student that doesn't have much experience coding games, but I have experience with just general coding, can someone give me the coding to a simple game so that I can study it to understand more about game coding?

I just need to figure out how to add in that when bobs x and y variables are close to that of the speed boost, the new variable already works just fine I just need it to change bobs speed when he almost touches it.

have you tried this?

if(bob.hitTestObject(speedBoost))
{
speed = 20;
speedDuration = 30
}

Test object... you mean the Speed class?

okay so this is what I wrote
if(char.hitTestObject(Speed))
{
speed = 20;
speedDuration = 30
}
}

it says something about speed 24 Error: Implicit coercion of a value of type Class to an unrelated type flash.displayisplayObject.

if(char.hitTestObject(sar))
{
speed = 20;
speedDuration = 30
}
worked but the duration doesn't work right, actually it doesn't work at all )=

@Tookman

looking back on your posted code... isnt sar the shark?

If so, then the collision wont trigger until the character hits the shark.

yikes that's a spaghetti code if I ever saw one. :/

what you have are 2 collisions
this

and this

I am assuming they are triggering correctly, but the first collision changes the speed to 20 then the second changes it back to 10... They are both triggering at the same time.

if(char.hitTestObject(sar))
{
	speed = 20;
	speedDuration = 30
}

no they aren't it's par.hitTestObject(sar) so when the player hits the speedboost he goes faster and then when the shark hits the speedboost he goes slow again.

ah I see... try entering a trace statement to see if it even triggers at all

if(char.hitTestObject(sar))
{
	speed = 20;
	speedDuration = 30
	trace("char hit speed")
}

I can tell it triggers the change is dramatic.
