Detailed Description

ActionManager is a singleton that manages all the actions.

Normally you won't need to use this singleton directly. 99% of the cases you will use the Node interface, which uses this singleton. But there are some cases where you might need to use this singleton. Examples:

When you want to run an action where the target is different from a Node.
When you want to pause / resume the actions.

Since: v0.8

void addAction	(	Action *	action,
		Node *	target,
		bool	paused
	)

Adds an action with a target.

If the target is already present, then the action will be added to the existing target. If the target is not present, a new instance of this target will be created either paused or not, and the action will be added to the newly created target. When the target is paused, the queued actions won't be 'ticked'.

Parameters

action	A certain action.
target	The target which need to be added an action.
paused	Is the target paused or not.

var addAction	(	var	action,
		var	target,
		var	paused
	)

Adds an action with a target.

If the target is already present, then the action will be added to the existing target. If the target is not present, a new instance of this target will be created either paused or not, and the action will be added to the newly created target. When the target is paused, the queued actions won't be 'ticked'.

Parameters

action	A certain action.
target	The target which need to be added an action.
paused	Is the target paused or not.

local addAction	(	local	action,
		local	target,
		local	paused
	)

Adds an action with a target.

If the target is already present, then the action will be added to the existing target. If the target is not present, a new instance of this target will be created either paused or not, and the action will be added to the newly created target. When the target is paused, the queued actions won't be 'ticked'.

Parameters

action	A certain action.
target	The target which need to be added an action.
paused	Is the target paused or not.
