Your ADVHeroNode is either a SkNode or SkSpriteNode with no image. Neither will have any extents, they're points so to speak. They will not be found by nodeAtPoint: but the image child SKSpriteNode will. Since you're explicitly checking for the node's name, the check fails.

You could give the image a name, and check for that and then refer to its parent to gethe ADVHeronode instance. Or just check node.parent's name directly.
