Why not just add jugglers to SPDisplayObjects already?
I think that paradigm is already used more then enough to justify it.
Even have a method so you could just override
- (void)advanceTime:(double)seconds {
[super advanceTime:seconds] // This would call; [mJuggler advanceTime:seconds]
......... do your code stuff here.............
}
Mhm, I have already thought about that, too. A simple way to do it would be to create an "SPAnimatedSprite", which is just a normal sprite with a juggler.
For now, I recommend you just make such a class yourself and use them in your games! It's not much code.
Another alternative I am considering is making access to the stage juggler easier. It's not 100% clean, as there could potentially be more than one stage in an application, but I think in this case it would make sense to add singleton access to the stage, like this:
[SPStage mainStage];
This would make it possible to access the stage, and thus the juggler, even in "init"-methods:
SPJuggler *juggler = [SPStage mainStage].juggler;
[juggler addObject: ...];Expect something akin to this in Sparrow 1.1

Seivan, there's definitely credit to your suggestions, but if you want that functionality, as Daniel says, just subclass and make it for yourself. I rarely use SPSprites directly and prefer my own subclasses, but SPSprites are very minimalist and I do use them when the extra functionality is not required. I think that's a better way than forcing individual preferences onto all users.
