I use dbMoveSprite to move an array of sprites (bullets) using a loop:


But somehow, when the loop contains dbMoveSprite, it causes my player-sprite to get stuck at the X-coordinate 302.

Without dbMoveSprites the player moves fine.

I move the playering using:

In your for loop you pass in 0 - 99 as bullets, but your player sprite IS number 1. So either omit 1 in your for loop or start at 2.

I use (i+20) in the loops to make sure that it never gets close to 1, which is the ID of the player-sprite.

And just to check, I removed the entire function that was supposed to move the bullets and it worked like it should.

Then I added dbMoveSprite(20,10); and the player-sprite got stuck in the middle of the screen again.

I found out what was wrong myself (about 10min after posting xD).

If the sprite that was called to move in dbMoveSprite doesn't exist, it looks like it moves the first sprite it can find (in this case my player sprite). A dbSpriteExist check solved it.
