Hello!
If I subclass a sprite or a scene that is moved using a finite state machine (or a state chart), where do you start that FSM?
I guess doing that in onEnter is not a good idea, because if I push a pause scene, then when coming back, FSM will be started another time, and probably fail.
Now I start them at the end of init, but not sure if that is the correct way.
What do you think?
Thank you very much.
Normally, a FSM is "started" by creating the initial state values for each object whe nit is created. As far as the actual functioning of it, I think common practice is to put it in a scheduled update method, so it will be evaluated every update. This also means you can pause your scene by unscheduling that method, and rescheduling it when you want to resume.
