deleting objects during active transitions...

Solar2D General Questions/Discussion

I wonder if it can cause problems if an object gets removed while a transition is still active. Can this cause problems? For example there are moving objects in a group and the group gets removed while the objects are still moving around.

I answer that there are no problems because when a rectangle is on a group and is translated during 10 seconds, when you removed the group after 5 seconds, the group become this :

table: 096550C8 {   [removeSelf] =\> function: 09512118 }

and the rectangle become this 

table: 09655578 {   [y] =\> 430   [x] =\> 360   [id] =\> "lol" }

So the listeners function has been removed. Only remains the final coordonnate and the id.

So if you listens something with the onComplete function based on the x and y coordonnate, there will be something happens.

ElseWhere, nothing.

Thx for your fast answer! Spares me a lot of headaches :slight_smile:

don’t know if i understood the question but if you delete objects that are still moving. first you need to cancel the transition then you delete the object or will give an error, because you’re trying to move an object that doesn’t exist anymore.
