Post if(actor.ClassName == MOPixel) - How would I make this work
Code:
if(actor.ClassName == MOPixel)
                        actor.Lifetime = actor.Lifetime*1.05
          end



I'm not sure if I have the argument right, but how can I get something like this to work?

an actor can't be an MOPixel if I am correct in thinking the laws of CC variable names still apply in Lua.

If ClassName returns the class name, and you're running for actor in MovableMan.Particles, you just need to make MOPixel a strnig.

Code:
if (actor.ClassName == "MOPixel") then return end

Though you really shouldn't do "for actor in MovableMan.Particles" because that's bad variable naming (which I guess I will adress in lua lesson 2).

Also, lifetime is in MS, do you really need hundredths of milliseconds? Because CC doesn't know the difference.

I need it for things with low lifetimes like bullets, so they don't just disappear when they are slowed down considerably.

And thanks Daman, that works perfectly.
