The Dink Network

A profile... why not.

Some things I enjoy doing: reading, mountain biking, hiking in the mountains, anything with computers, er, most things really. I love to ski, and just wish I could go on a slope longer than 180 metres.
Partly inspired by enjoying DinkC coding, I went to college to learn a bit of Software Development and am now working with some local developers, using VB.NET and C#.

I have many things I should be doing so writing a profile seemed a good way of putting them off.

I live in northwest England (south originally) and, um, that's about it.

I'm making a D-Mod and have some ambitious ideas for future ones but don't expect anything soon!

I create 11 sprites and kill them using hurt(); in a seperate script (not attached to them).
Then when I do this:
int &alldead = get_sprite_with_this_brain(9, 0);
if (&alldead == 0)
{
say_xy("`3test", 0, 200);
}

nothing happens, even though all sprites did die (at least they look dead, lots of blood and not moving ).
I checked in debug mode and when it gets to the if statement it counts 11 sprites still... so what's wrong? Do I need to set the brains to 0 myself? I thought that happened anyway when it died, at least I can't find any references to it in a normal enemy script.
