I have a sprite manager cocosnode which is suposed to control enemy actions and animations. Sprite manager gets added to game layer as a child. When trying to call animations on sprite objects they fail to run and the conditions state they must run. Can you call an animation from outside a layer or does it have to be called from within it?
Thanks
You can call the animation from outside the layer, i mean for example from another layer which has a reference of the other layer, so you can do [otherLayer->layer->sprite runAction ...]
I think the animations have to be added to the sprite you want to call the animation for. i don't know if adding the animation to the sprite manager will work. (which i undertand you are doing)
I have two sprite subclasses, enemysprite and playersprite, and animations are defined within these classes.
Sprite manager just calls the relevant animation on the sprite object. I store sprite pointers in an NSMutableArray within sprite manager and have a scheduled method to loop through the array.
