manage objects automatically

[Marcus]

I have created two examples based on the one you have shown me of oop, one with a list and the other without a list 

The one that uses the list library works fine, but the one that doesn't use the list library I can't get the trigger to be eliminated when exiting the screen. 

I show you the two examples and you can tell me where the error is or you can make a version of your example without using the list library

Sorry for the delay, got busy yesterday, but I've had a look at your code now

I replaced

Code:

free deadList[i]

in Father_Update with

Code:

free val fatherList, deadList[i]

The new line removes the object in deadList from fatherList. That is, 'free val x, y' removes any occurrence of y from the array/table x and re-indexes the array (removes any holes).

Code:

function Father_Update()
    if sizeof(fatherList)
        for i = 0 to sizeof(fatherList) -1
            fatherList[i].Update()
        next
    endif   
   
    if sizeof(deadList)
      for i = 0 to sizeof(deadList) -1
          ' Marcus
          'free deadList[i]
          free val fatherList, deadList[i]
      next
    endif
    clear deadList
endfunc

You should never use 'free' when working with arrays. Always use 'free val' (remove any occurrence of a value) or 'free key' (remove an index/key and its value).
