Hello everyone,

I'm having a problem with these transitions. I have a layer where basically all of my game elements are contained, and on it I run something like:
[self runAction:[FadeOutBLTiles ....]];

The problem is that when I do this my framerate drops from about 60fps to about 30fps. I wouldn't be much surprised if it only lasted for the duration of the transition, but the framerate never goes back up (I'm later running the same action, but reversed).

Does anyone have any idea why this is happening? Could it be that it continues to draw my layer in tiles, even after the reverse action completes? And how to prevent it?

Thanks,
Ivan Galic

you are running it on the device, right ? which device ? which cocos2d version ? which sdk ?

after running your action, run:
```
[self runAction: [StopGrid action]];
```

Thanks, I'd just discovered that this morning reading an unrelated post here on the forum. I don't know why it happens, but StopGrid helps. I'm using iPhone 2G, iPhone OS 3.0, Snow Leopard, SDK 3.0 (but the deployment target is 2.2).

Thanks for the help once again!
