Character keeps falling when it shouldn't be - actionscript-3

Question

I am doing an assessment task for school in as3 and I have made a feature that will let the character fall if it is not standing on top of something but the boolean variable falling keeps being on when it is not supposed to. I have figured out that what causes it to stop for a short time and then fall again past what it is standing on is that the velocity valuable increases past the floor it is on so I reset the velocity value in the code in another spot but that does not solve the issue of the falling boolean being true when it is not supposed too.
I have put a comment at the temporary solution it is in the gameEngine function in the if(falling) statement

Answer 1

It was a simple logic error occurring here
hitDetection(0, char.y + char.height + 1)
I had made adjustments for the location by adding char.y to the value when my hitDetection function already made an adjustment to each corner of my character. Only took ~3 hours to figure out
