Texture Disposal in Spine?

Spine
#1

Does anyone know how to dispose of a Spine texture once it’s been loaded in (like after a scene change)?  The TextureAtlas:dispose() method in the lua runtime is incomplete…

#2

If you have placed the spine object in a display object then remove that as usual. Also need to remove the runtime eventListener that updates skeleton animations.

Hey that totally works! Do I need to worry about all of the Lua memory, or does that just get garbage collected eventually? Thanks!!!

#4

Depends how you’re dealing with your variables and tables. As for spine, as long as it is local to your scene everything from that is disposed on a new scene change. Spine does use a few globals though I’ve noticed.
