Hey,

I’m still developing a game and I have some issues. Either I add a movieclip-child making it look like i am mowing the lawn or i draw graphics with blendmode.Erase erasing the top-layer.

Now i would like the addChild-solution because i can rotate, adjust size etc. very easy but ofcourse it laggs after a while. How can i make the added children into bitmaps or something? So there isnt 10000 movieclips on the stage…
