Add life to a sprite ?

[Nikow]

Hi !

 

I'm creating a space shooter, and i would like the asteroids can't be explode with only one shoot..

 

So, how could i assign differents life values to my sprites (asteroids sprites) ti make them destructables at differents points ?

 

Thank you !

It depends on how you're creating your sprites, but I'm pretty sure sprites have a health property you can modify and decrement when they're shot using the damage method.

 

If not, you might have to derive your own Asteroid sprite class and mixin the Health component.

Check out the extending sprites demo. It shows how to subclass a sprite so you can customize its behavior.

Just a little precision, if i want to create my extending class on a separate file, how can i include it ?

It depends if you're using JavaScript, or TypeScript, or what. I'm not sure what your setup is, there.

I'm coding in Js

The file declaring your parent needs to come before the file declaring your child.
