Oops, forgot something:

As a workaround, I had planned to put all the relevant mc's into an
array, and then cycle through the array doing a hitTest with each mc.
I'm sure there's a more efficient way though....

Cheers

  Hi Chaps,
 
  I've got a quick question:
 
  MovieClip.hitTest()
 
  Does the target need to be specific? i.e. Is it possible to have
this return true if MovieClip collides with *anything*?
 
  The reason for asking is that I've created a movie in which lots
of objects are moving around (randomly) and I don't want them to
overlap.
 
  Thanks in advance!
 
  Jason
