    Destroy Sprites

    Hi

    Sorry for another newbie question...

    I've got a list of instances of a custom class inherited from Sprite (with a TNT anomation in it) and basedupon certain conditions I want to remove them and destroy them. This may not be the best for performance but so far I've tried removing them from the stage and setting them to nil but nothing ! They keep getting events and executing them as if they still were alive...

    How can I "kill" them for good ?

    Thanks

    Paolo

      @ eclisse,

      If you use TNT Particles Engine, use :
      myEmitter:free() 
 myEmmiter = nil
      see UserGuide.pdf with TNT Particles Engine

      Otherwise, it must be :
      myObject:removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, myObject.onEnterFrame, myObject)
 stage:removeChild(myObject) -- if create on stage !
 myObject = nil

      @eclisse would be great to see more code, but in theory yes, you need to free the animations something like this: http://www.giderosmobile.com/forum/discussion/comment/25311#Comment_25311
      And remove Sprite objects from parent

      Aaaah, really newbie...

      I didn't think of removing the listeners and feeing up the animation.

      Thanks a lot to both !

      Cheers,
      Paolo
