   Hi guys

   I am an experienced programmer but new to COCOS2D and I am stuck on something. Been googling for hours and can't find solution.

   I am using actions like this without a problem:

   id actionFadeOut = [FadeOut actionWithDuration:1.2f];

   But now I need an instant action to hide a sprite but can't get it to work. I can't just use sprite.visible because I want to sequence the 'fadeout' action and then the 'hide' instant action but I just can't get it to compile.

   Could someone just post an example of how to setup an instant action please?

   Many thanks
   Dean

   Dean,

   Instant actions work just like the interval actions except that they do not have a time duration argument. Look inside CCInstantAction.h and CCAction.h for more info. Note what is subclassed from what...

   try something like this:

   id actionFadeOut = [FadeOut actionWithDuration:1.2f];
   id actionHide = [CCHide action];
   [sprite runAction: [CCSequence actions:actionFadeOut, actionHide, nil];

   Hi David

   Thanks for the response

   Yeah, got that working now thanks to you. Not sure why, but where you had 'CCHide' and 'CCSequence', I had to use 'hide' and 'sequence'. Not sure why that is unless we are using difference COCOS2D versions.

   Anyway, thanks very much,really appreciate it.

   Dean, yes, it sounds like you are using an earlier version of Cocos2d (pre 0.90). If you are not to far along in your application, I suggest that you upgrade cocos to the latest version 0.99.0
