I'm just starting out with cocos2d so maybe this is a stupid question :)
Is it possible to share a layer instance across multiple scenes? My use case is that I have a layer called BackgroundLayer that I want present in the Menu, Play, and Setting scenes. The reason I want to share it is that the BackgroundLayer is composed of various sprites that are positioned depending on some global state.
Thanks,

Well, couldn't you just instantiate the layer based on the global state again every scene? I understand that may seem redundant but it's a quick fix.
If you want to share it then I guess you could create your own init method within all the Menu, Play, and Setting scenes to accept a layer argument. Just be sure to remove the Layer from one Scene before passing onto the other so that you don't get an error since a CocosNode can only have 1 parent at any given point in time I believe.
