I have a problem which I need to resolve. I am making a Space Invaders game in C# XNA. I've been following this tutorial for the Invaders: https://www.youtube.com/watch?list=LLhsF03QfDMDhbw02_8C6Smg&v=wIW4S75iZBI&feature=player_detailpage#t=397 But I also have my own code for animating the Invader spritesheet. And eventually here's what I'm drawing:
void Draw(SpriteBatch spriteBatch){
for (int r = 0; r < m_InvaderRows; r++)
{
for (int c = 0; c < m_InvaderCollumns; c++)
{
spriteBatch.Draw(m_BotInvaderTex, m_BotInvaderPos, m_BotInvaderHitBox, Color.White, 0f, Vector2.Zero, 1.0f, SpriteEffects.None, 0);
// ???
spriteBatch.Draw(m_BotInvaderTex, m_BotInvadersRect[r, c], Color.White);
}
}
}
So the first Draw() call draws only 1 animated sprite. The second draws 50 non-animated sprites. m_BotInvadersRect[r, c] is a rectangle I used as a multi-dimensional array. So I'm looking for a way to combine both Draw calls and have 50 animated sprites drawn on my screen.
How can I animate the Invaders using a the code bellow?
