Hey Guys, My question is as easy as that: What is the best method to create character for example in Cocos2D? Here's an example: I want to create an enemy of my "Ninja". The enemy has a strength of 0.5 and a speed of 50. How would you implement this? A subclass of CCSprite or CCLayer or something completely different? I tried with...
I am trying to run Instruments on my iPod touch. I have the iPod Touch connected to the device. I fire up the Instruments and select the target as "iPod Touch" then I choose the target to be "myappname". This fires up the app but the app is stuck on the cocos2d default home screen (the cocos2d logo). When I run the application on the dev...
I'm drawing some lines in cocos2d (using handy ccDrawLine), nothing fancy, but i want to check if my animated line hits something. I could do some math calculations for some objects, but for some dynamic parts in the scene it would be much easier if i could do: if pixel not black at (x,y) // line will hit something do handleCollisi...
I was under the impression that the Cocos2D game framework was just for the iPhone. Now I see that they have a separate project supporting OS/X, Linux, and Windows. It isn't immediately obvious from their web site what languages are options for developing with the framework on these various platforms. There is an installation requirem...
Hey Guys, It's me again with a Cocos2D problem. :-D I create the main character of my upcoming game as a sublclass of NSObject.

That action which should be scheduled ever...

Hello, I'm using Cocos2D in my project and I'm quite new to this library. And I don't understand one thing. I have many sprites on the scene which are added and removed constantly. So at certain moment a sprite becomes useless and I have to remove it form a batch node. In the comments of the removeChild method of CCSpriteBatchNode clas...
I have a scene called CongratsScene which is loaded something like this: [[CCDirector sharedDirector] replaceScene:[CCFlipAngularTransition transitionWithDuration:0.8f scene:[CongratsScene scene]]]; For some reason I am not able to add the menu to the scene. Here is the code: +(id) scene { CCScene *scene = [CCScene node]; ...
In my cocos2d application I have run through it using instruments and removed all memory leaks. I have my game outputting how much memory is in use on the screen and it is constantly rising as the game progresses until I eventually run out of memory. The amount of objects on screen doesn't increase by very much each level. Its a fairly s...
My AppDelegate makes the following call to start my game scene: [[CCDirector sharedDirector] replaceScene: [HelloWorld sceneWithResponseDelegate:self]]; When the scene is finished it adds a MenuLayer (which is a singleton): MenuLayer *menu = [MenuLayer layerWithLevel:@"forest" score:score responseDelegate:mainMenu]; [[[CCDirector sha...
Hi, I am making an iPhone game. I want to release all the object that have been allocated or retained.

So I figured I need to check if its retainCount is greater than zero or not before i ...
