how to remove sprite object when we create touch in cocos2d? - ios

Question

I am new in cocos2d. I have a problem when we create new sprite object. It's not remove onto the display. Sprite object are not delete when we add new lives.(add heart sprite).
//Here I create a live which in heart shape.
-(id) init {
if( (self=[super init]) ) {
hearthArray = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
lives = 4;
for(NSInteger ilive = 0; ilive<lives; ilive++){
CCSprite *hearth = [CCSprite spriteWithFile:#"hearth.png"];
hearth.position = ccp( ((ilive+1)*50), winSize.height - 50);
[hearthArray insertObject:hearth atIndex:ilive];
[self addChild:hearth];
}
return self;
}
//Below code into remove the heart.(decrease lives).
- (void) addMonster:(ccTime)dt {
//select a random monster from the _monsters Array
int selectedMonster = arc4random() % [_monsters count];
Monster *monster = [_monsters objectAtIndex:selectedMonster];
int m = [monster movement];
CCSprite *spriteMonster = [[CCSprite alloc] initWithFile:[monster monsterSprite]];
spriteMonster.tag = [monster tag];
CGSize winSize = [CCDirector sharedDirector].winSize;
int minX = spriteMonster.contentSize.width / 2;
int maxX = winSize.width - spriteMonster.contentSize.width/2;
int rangeX = maxX - minX;
int actualY = (arc4random() % rangeX) + minX;
//BLOCK 2 - Determine speed of the monster
int minDuration = [monster minVelocity];
int maxDuration = [monster maxVelocity];
int rangeDuration = maxDuration - minDuration;
int actualDuration = (arc4random() % rangeDuration) + minDuration;
if(m == 1){
spriteMonster.position = ccp( actualY,winSize.height + spriteMonster.contentSize.height/2);
[self addChild:spriteMonster];
//BLOCK 4 - Create the actions
CCMoveTo * actionMove = [CCMoveTo actionWithDuration:actualDuration position:ccp( actualY,-spriteMonster.contentSize.height/2)];
CCCallBlockN * actionMoveDone = [CCCallBlockN actionWithBlock:^(CCNode *node) {
[_monstersOnScreen removeObject:node];
[node removeFromParentAndCleanup:YES];
// Remove lifes
lives--;
// [[hearthArray lastObject] removeFromParentAndCleanup:YES];
[self removeChild:[hearthArray lastObject] cleanup:YES];
[hearthArray removeLastObject];
NSLog(#"m=1 when array : %#",hearthArray);
if(lives == 0)
[[CCDirector sharedDirector] replaceScene:[HelloWorldLayer scene]];
}];
[spriteMonster runAction:[CCSequence actions:actionMove, actionMoveDone, nil]];
[_monstersOnScreen addObject:spriteMonster];
}
}
//Below into Add new lives using for loop.when touch particular object.
-(void)increaseLivesWhentouchCoin{
NSLog(#"lives is get when add live : %i",lives);
NSLog(#"hearthArray when toch coin: %#",hearthArray);
lives = lives+1;
NSLog(#"lives+1 : %i",lives);
for(NSInteger i = 0; i<lives; i++){
hearth = [CCSprite spriteWithFile:#"hearth.png"];
CGSize winSize = [CCDirector sharedDirector].winSize;
hearth.position = ccp( ((i+1)*50), winSize.height-50);
[hearthArray insertObject:hearth atIndex:i];
[self addChild:hearth];
}
NSLog(#"hearthArray out for loop: %#",hearthArray);
}
Please help me.Thanks in advance.

Your increaseliveswhentouch coin method should be like this..
-(void)increaseLivesWhentouchCoin{
CCSprite *hearth = [CCSprite spriteWithFile:#"hearth.png"];
CGSize winSize = [CCDirector sharedDirector].winSize;
hearth.position = ccp( ((lives+1)*50), winSize.height-50);
[hearthArray insertObject:hearth atIndex:lives];
[self addChild:hearth];
lives++;
}
You have to add just one heart object .There is no need to create all objects again,if you want to create remove all the objects first..
