It's very strange...

This is my 5 sprites for the fireworks when the slot do a big win.
The 1st sprite get stucked at the same position.
The 2nd sprite ID is always 12, even if i change the position in the code so where to create it.
The others work as expected.

When CreaSprite (in english CreateSprite) return the ID, it is not 12, but the real ID so 10120 (for example)

I don't understand why later in the animation update it get 12!!!!
I'm going crazy!!!
Why 12??????

Anyone encountered this problem?

In the while i'm testing other solutions...

Could you perhaps show us your Fire's class/struct?
I'd also like to see whether Fire is a table or other object (vector perhaps?). So, if you can, please show how you initialize Fire aswell.

Also, I guess that the 2nd snippet occurs on loop, many times, whereas initializing fire happens once. It could be that something else's changing their values.

Two possible options:
a) Something else changes their values
b) Something's wrong with your class and you need to make a list/table/vector of pointers

xGEKKOX, take a closer look at [w] value: if it goes out of bounds set in structure (eg [6] while you have max of [5] in declaration), it will return the wrong value but not null. Just a suggestion.

I think he's using the array class so he should be safe with w < Fire.size().

What comes after your animation code?

The first firework only explode, the second never come out (the one with 12), the others work normally as...
They come up from the ground, reach the count when they need to explode and explode well.

The array is a vector:
struct _Fire { int id_sp; int oy; int conto; int cy; int fr; int anim; int vel; };
vector <_Fire> Fire(5);

The strange thing, is that the fireworks only worked 3/100 times, doing nothing!!!!

Long life to Steve!

Oh my god, if i launch the fireworks immediately, they work.
If i initialize them after the slot init and the other sprite init, they don't work.
Investigating...

Can you show the CreaSprite function?

This might help with knowing how the sprite is being created.

Also, you are using integer values as the Y value passed into SetSpriteY. That function takes a float value for the Y value. This may or may not be having an undesired effect.

And some questions about the following code:

+ Code Snippet

            if(Fire[w].anim == 0){
                //Imposta Animazione e Frame
                if(Fire[w].frame == 1){
                    Fire[w].frame = 2;
                } else if(Fire[w].frame == 2){
                    Fire[w].frame = 1;
                }
                if(Fire[w].cy < Fire[w].conto){
                    Fire[w].cy += 2;
                    int g = Fire[w].oy - Fire[w].cy;
                    agk::SetSpriteY(Fire[w].id_sp, g);
                } else {
                    Fire[w].anim = 1;
                }
            }
            
            if(Fire[w].anim == 1){
                if(fps % 5 == 0){
                    Fire[w].frame++;
                    if(Fire[w].frame > 9){
                        agk::SetSpriteY(Fire[w].id_sp, Fire[w].oy);
                        Fire[w].anim = 0;
                        Fire[w].frame = 1;
                        Fire[w].cy = 0;
                    }
                }
            }

It is possible that both of the following will evaluate to true "if(Fire[w].anim == 0)" and "if(Fire[w].anim == 1)" in the same for loop iteration. This might happen because the anim value is set to one if this test fails "if(Fire[w].cy < Fire[w].conto)".

And, how are you setting the variable 'fps' used in this test "if(fps % 5 == 0)"? Frames Per Second is a floating point value as returned by ScreenFPS and used in SetSyncRate. The way you are using the variable makes it an integer. Assuming that is what you meant, try putting parenthesis around 'fps % 5' to make sure it is being parsed correctly.

}

Ok now the fireworks don't fire the 12 sprite doesn't exist, but now only 1 fire go over the max count!!!

Try changing this: if(_fuochi && fps % 2 == 0)
to this: if(_fuochi && ((fps % 2) == 0))

In theory, assuming normal precedence, your code should produce what you intend, but I never assume that compilers really do that.

Plus, it makes it much more readable and easier for a human being to parse.

And I just found a page that says the order of evaluation (at run time) is not necessarily the same order as the compiler uses.

All of your sprite ids are in the range of 10000 or more because you are using the automatic id generation version of CreateSprite.

And I am still quite suspicious of your use of integers for X and Y values instead of the floats used by the AppGameKit function and your own CreaSprite function.

Is your fps variable a float or integer and how are you setting it?

The fps is an int.
For fps i never had problems, cause is an integer that do ++ on the loop function.
When arrive at 10000 return to 1.

I think is the float VS int as you said.
Now the ID problem is solved, but the coordinate still exist.
I wanna investigate on the compiler as you said.

Well incredible again....
All is solved creating and deleting the sprite each time i need fireworks.
But is strange, maybe the mistake is on other sprites.

I will post something if i understand better.

Long life to Steve!
