uh....not in any attached behavior I've ever used. A behavior attached to
a sprite will get 'me' for any method in the behavior. Maybe you should
test it before offering advice?
note the declaration of property spriteNum and then the use of
sprite(spriteNum) in the endSprite.
in the message window, with this behavior attached:
-- Welcome to Director --
sendAllsprites(#CustomMessages, "duh")
-- "me: <offspring "Behavior Template" 4 145f0dc> this: duh"
I don't pass in the me, but the CustomMessages handler in the Behavior
Template gets the me anyway.
