Well, another approach would be to put this on your sprites:
property pMyMemmber
on beginSprite me
pMyMember = sprite(me).member.name
yada yada
end
on checkMyMember me, memName
if memName = pMyMember then
return sprite(me).spriteNum
end if
end
Then you could do a
spriteChannel = sendAllSprites (#checkMyMember, "Member 1")
SendAllSprites is kind of slow, of course. Another option would be to set up a
registry object, have the sprites register their members, then ask the registry object
for the appropriate sprite channel.
Cordially,
