I have a CCSequence that is executed and just below that in the same function I set three sprites to visible = YES; The issue is that I need them to be visible only after the actions are done.
How can I do this? If I set the alpha in an action and add it to the sequence, will that also remove the touch recognition? I have a gesture Recognizer attached to the cocos2d sprite using a wrapper.
So what is the best way to have this work?
The answer to the first part of your question is to use CCCallFunc, CCCallFuncN, or CCCallFuncND. The animation in one of my apps is done like this:
CCArray* array = [[CCArray alloc] initWithCapacity:20];
for (...) {
[array addObject:[CCMoveTo actionWithDuration:time position:ccp(...)]];
}
[array addObject:[CCCallFuncN actionWithTarget:self selector:@selector(animationComplete:)]];
[sprite runAction:[CCSequence actionsWithArray:[array getNSArray]]];
[array release];
As for the second part, the alpha affecting touch recognition, I'm not sure. I would think as long as you don't set visible to NO, it would still be touchable.
