hello all, does it take a lot of coding to show explosions of an object. for example if i have objects appear on the screen from either side and you have to click on them to destroy them, whats the best way to show like an explosion. basically like changing my png file to a ball of fire that then disappears. anyone have any examples etc… thanks
Hi,
I think what you are looking for are sprites:

So what did you use to create the sheet. I was trying photoshop cs6 but have not got it to work right.
Did you follow the tutorial? I followed it once and I got it to work.
After that you only need to create your sprites in your favorite image editor. A sprite is nothing more than an image with several images in it:
What exactly is a image sheet? Imagine it as a sheet of paper on which you draw the individual frames for your animated object(s). Other technical terms include texture atlas, image map, or sprite sheet. In Corona, we’ll simply refer to it as an image sheet , because its usage is not limited to either static or animated objects — you can, and often should, use image sheets for both purposes: static images picked from a portion of an image sheet, and animated sprites utilizing multiple frames from a sheet.

Tomas
