Dismemberment function, any advices ?

[Kiwi404]

Hi,

I'm making a dismemberment function of a sprite (human) when it died.

This is how i see it :

• Get 6 bitmap (pooled)
• Copy with copyRect part of the sprite's texture (legs, torso, ...) and  eventually resize these bitmaps
• Get 6 Image (pooled) and apply theses different textures
• Play some tweens to make parts fly randomly
• When tweens finished, free the 6 bitmaps and 6 image ( return to pool queue)

Do you have any advices ( performance, ...) about this way ?

Thanks

Not advice but a question, why do you need 6 bitmaps? Can't it just be 6 sprites? That's probably less taxing on performance.

@BdR i need a destination bitmapData to do all the copyRect... work and then apply this new texture to the image.

So if i understand what you mean, the 6 images have already a bitmapData associated (when they are instantiated) and i should use it instead of taking another bitmapData ?

Thanks

That sounds fine.

Unless it's possible to just create separate images beforehand (in an image editor), then I would prefer that.
