My friends and I have decided to try to make a game for flash player 9 in AS3.
Since it’ll be a real-time tiled strategy game, we will have the same tiles used(rendered) on different map locations. If we were to load the same tile over and over again for each map render this would eat up a lot of memory.
So, now I’m asking, if there’s a way to load the tile(bitmap) once and then, when I want to render it 100 times, I’d just referenced to it, instead of loading it again?
Thanks!
EDIT: nevermind, i found the solution here: http://www.kirupa.com/forum/showthread.php?p=2123135#post2123135
