Replicate (id) sender property in skspritenode button

Question

I noticed this discussion: Setting up buttons in SKScene And decided to take a shot and use the SKSpriteButton class written by Graf, when creating a buttons in my game scrollers.

When the user taps on one of the buttons, the main object in the game should customized with that button's texture.

When I used UIButton it was very easy to determine which button was tapped (when all triggered the same function):

(IBAction)customizeMainObject: (id)sender; 

Is there a way to replicate the same behavior with Sprite Buttons?

Answer 1

You can make a subclass of SKSpriteNode that has a property called texture. In TouchesBegan or TouchesEnded, check to see if any of the sprite buttons were touched.

ex.

if ([self.sprite containsPoint: location]) 
{               
    //set players texture = self.sprite.texture;
}
