Change sprite animation speed with a Behavior

  • Hi,

    I'm making a behavior that's supposed to be attached to Sprite objects.

    I want that behavior to set the animation speed of the sprite once that sprite is created.

    And this is what I do in the behavior:

    	behinstProto.onCreate = function()
    	{
    		cr.plugins_.Sprite.prototype.acts.SetAnimSpeed.call(this.inst,0);
    	};
    [/code:3d8r6s5s]
    
    Unfortunately that does nothing, because apparently the sprite object's instantiation/initialization comes after behinstProto.onCreate() and override my setting.
    One solution is to put it in behinstProto.tick() but I don't want to add initialization stuff in the tick function.
    
    One other hackish solution:
    [code:3d8r6s5s]
    	behinstProto.onCreate = function()
    	{
    		var self = this.inst;
    		setTimeout(function(){
    			cr.plugins_.Sprite.prototype.acts.SetAnimSpeed.call(self,0);
    		},0);
    	};
    [/code:3d8r6s5s]
    Do you have a better solution ?
    Thanks.

  • Using a boolean to indicate the first tick and then doing it in the tick function is a cleaner solution to me.

    behinstProto.onCreate = function()
    {
       this.firstTick = true;
    };
    
    behinstProto.tick = function()
    {
       if (this.firstTick)
       {
          this.firstTick = false;
          cr.plugins_.Sprite.prototype.acts.SetAnimSpeed.call(this.inst,0);
       }
    };[/code:3iyvjmxy]
