Maximum call stack size exceeded

[glass22]

Hi,

 

I'm trying to load a bunch of sprites on screen, then update them but am getting the error Maximum call stack size exceeded

 

I've made it as simple as possible and still get the error

 

function update()
{
        badGuyArray[0].update();
}

 

    obj.update = function()
    {
    };

 

even with this it's still occuring

I don't understand what obj.update = function is there for?

Hi,

 

Obj.update is just a function attached to my badguyObject, the object is created as obj, then returned to a createBadGuy function as a value.

 

var BadGuy = function()
{
    var current = baddies.create(game.world.randomX, game.world.randomY, "bad");
    var obj = SpriteBase(badSpeed, badHits, current);

   
    obj.update = function()
    {
      //var move = accelerateToObject(this.unit, Player.unit, this.speed, this.speed * 2, this.speed * 2);
    };
   
    badGuyArray.push(this);
    return obj;
};

Sorry realised my mistake!

The old 'recursive function call death loop' - you likely registered 'this' with itself in bad guys array? Update called update called update etc.

Hi,

 

No the issue was here

 

badGuyArray.push(this);
return obj;

 

I should of been pushing obj, this was a function reference and not an object reference
