Haxe

I'm porting something ive done in haxeflixel (and also have tried porting to some other engines to get a feel for them)

In this specific case Im just creating the graphical presentation of a unit in a TBS. So a "base" and an animated sprite combined

Works fine either way - but in this case I dont need to use a component

```haxe
class UnitIcon extends Visual {
    public var base:Sprite;
    public var sprite:Sprite;

    public function new(unit:UnitData) {
        super();

        anchor(.5, .5);

        base = new Sprite();
        base.sheet = MainScene.iconSheet;
        base.quad.roundTranslation = 1;
        base.animation = "unit_base";
        base.quad.color = 0x778899FF;
        base.anchor(.5, .5);

        sprite = new Sprite();
        sprite.sheet = MainScene.unitSheet;
        sprite.quad.roundTranslation = 1;
        sprite.animation = "infantry_idle";
        sprite.anchor(.5, .5);

        add(base);
        add(sprite);
    }
}
```

Autocompletion seems to be painfully slow

Yeah I had the same issue when I was playing around with ceramic a few months ago.

my implementation of differently sized pipes is taking one texture and randomly making copies of it, but they seem to be clipping. how can i make them look like just one image?

(notice the lines on the base of the pipe)

i was thinking about adding a pool for the pipes, but it seems like extra work since the pipes are random sizes each time so i just manage it through an array and `.destroy()` it when necessary

Yes, that’s something I hope will be improved in future haxe versions…

a loop that makes copies of a texture based on a randomly generated number, and then the textures are placed at the end of the previous texture

why cant you just scale in the Y and attach an end piece

you're copying the texture itself or adding more quads?

adding more quads that have the same texture

i would but i plan on changing the texture and i think it would make it look stretched

i did something very similar and i don't think i got any gaps

oh yea i forgot here you go
```haxe
for (i in 0...tailLength) {
            var q = new Quad();
            q.texture = tailtex;
            q.pos(width/2, height/2 - i * tailtex.height); //TODO1 remove spaces between pipe tails
            q.anchor(0.5, 1);
            tail.push(q);
        }
```

this is in `class Pipe extends ceramic.Visual {}`

try making sure that the pipes' positions are always integers

Could also set `texture.filter = NEAREST`
