Hi,

I'm a pretty new Cocos2d / iPhone dev, and I'm still finding my way a little bit so apologies if this is either a stupid question / been answered before - I've searched but not found anything.

We can chain actions together using a Sequence and then give to a CocosNode to run, but is there any way to run multiple Actions at the same time ( So, instead of say moving to a position and then scaling by 2.0, is there a way to Move to a position, while at the same time scaling by 2.0?

Thanks for any help!

Just call the actions one after another. Like:

[OBJ runAction:[MoveTo blah]];
[OBJ runAction:[ScaleTo blah]];

Unless I'm missing something, that should work.

Check out for "Spawn" actions on the test files that comes with the cocos2d framework

Check out the SpritesTest demo in your cocos release. Look at the SpriteSpawn class ("Spawn: Jump + Rotate").

Wow, what quick responses! Thanks all. Problem solved and I've learnt a little more about the API!

Cheers!

Hi, with CCSpawn, we can do multiple actions at once. But what if I want to do some sequence before? For example I'd like to do actions sequence A. After receiving user input or after some times period, I'd like the sprite to have another sequence without stopping the running one. Thanks.
