Sprite.image

[davidgomes]

Changing the image of my sprite via:

my_sprite.image = "hello.png";

sprite.image is not working, I get "TypeError" on jaws.js.

my_sprite.setImage ("hello.png");

However, doing sprite.setImage ("new_image.png") is working.

setImage() will load an un-specified asset on the fly.. the simple sprite.image is a raw setter of image data.. so use setImage() and only image= if you need some extra boost. I don't think it's much of a difference though, I might just deprecate sprite.image= in total.
