Adding entities or graphics
« on: December 03, 2009, 02:56:31 PM »

Hello,

i have created a checkboard type field with 144 squares and thus 144 entities. Now I need to display icons over some of these squares.
Do I have to create another 144 entities and use active=true/false and setSprite to achieve that, or is there a way to "dynamically" create new entities (by script) or maybe insert graphics relative to the position of the original 144 entities?

Thank you for your help!

Yes, you can create entities dynamically using Scene.CreateEntity() method.

Yeah, sure, it had to be that easy. Couldn't be that it was just really complicated to do, no, it had to be that I didn't check the reference for 'Scene'...

Thank You!
