...is not a function, array, macro or linked list

[lexvictory]

It will be needed to animate more then one sprite. I'll have to come up with another method.

You would have the same effect using static; calling the function with different params doesn't change the location of the static variable used...
Global does work on arrays if that's what you're thinking

First, I would like to thank you for helping.

Also, I just tried the following code which does compile to a working lib but doesn't work with multiple sprites yet, as I removed Static. Still working on it.
