FlxSpriteContainer
is a special FlxSprite
that can be treated like a single sprite even
if it's made up of several member sprites. It shares the FlxGroup
API, but it doesn't inherit
from it. Note that FlxSpriteContainer
is a FlxSpriteGroup
but the group is a FlxContainer
.
When to use a group or container
FlxGroups
are better for organising arbitrary groups for things like iterating or collision.
FlxContainers
are recommended when you are adding them to the current FlxState
, or a
child (or grandchild, and so on) of the state.
Since FlxSpriteGroups
and FlxSpriteContainers
are usually meant to draw groups of sprites
rather than organizing them for collision or iterating, it's recommended to always use
FlxSpriteContainer
instead of FlxSpriteGroup
.
