There is 2 types of colision detection active which uses the drop target

and the target is the shape of the MC and can be any shape without

complications. Droptarget has to be activated by a mouse event.

Non-active colision detection relies on the x and y coordinates and

would need a mathematical representation of the target area circles and

squares are fairly easy, but complex shapes like planes would be much

more difficult.
