MovieClip, is there another way to assign value to its table?

monkry · December 2012

I hope my question isn't wrong...
I'm newbie in Gideros (and also, actually, in programming), and... nice to meet you

So, you can do this with usual table (the code is just example):

    local texture = Texture.new("chuchuchu.png")
    local frame = {}
    for i=0, 4 do
        frame[i+1] = Bitmap.new(TextureRegion.new(texture, i*100, 0, 100, texture:getHeight()))
    end

Is there a way to assign value to MovieClip table that way?
If I have many charaters and the number of sprite's frame is varying, then I have to assign each frame to MovieClip.

I've tried this:

    local mc = MovieClip.new{
        {1, duration, frame[1]},
    }
    for i=2, 10 do
        mc[i] = {duration*(i-1)+1, duration*i, frame[i]}
    end

when I printed #mc, it printed 10, but the animation didn't work.

If you have a way, please tell me. And if there's no way to do something like that, please also tell me

@monkry what MovieClip accepts as a parameter is a simple table with your frames and image value.
So you can simply generate needed table and pass it to MovieClip constructor

--generate table with frames and durations
local frames = {}
frames[1] = {1, duration, frame[1]}
for i=2, 10 do
    frames[i] = {duration*(i-1)+1, duration*i, frame[i]}
end
 
--pass it to movie clip constructor
local mc = MovieClip.new(frames)

I think that should work

All hail! It works!
Thank you, thank you so much for your help! :'D

Actually, At first I was kinda pessimist seeing your answer, because I've tried something like that (passing table as its param) and it was failed. But I've done the table wrong...

Again, thank you so much for your help!
