I am trying to delete an image, but create a new image for the object with the same ID.



Instead of the object(s) picking up the the newly loaded image with the same ID, its just deleting the old image.

Am I missing something here? Why wouldn't this work? I feel like this should work, and perhaps I am doing something wrong somehow.

Thanks for any guidance.

oh just read your problem again
its noted in the help file you shouldn't delete an image that is already
assigned to an object.

instead you need to loadimage(imgID2,"whatever.img")
Setobject Obj,imgID2)
Then you can delete the old image
deleteImage(imgID1)

Ah. bummer. I was hoping to skip a few steps, and not do that, haha.

Thanks for the heads-up, fubarpk!
