Well... very rarely.
Sometimes.
All the time?

That should teach me to make assumptions. I knew you can use "sendSprite"
with 0 or -5, so I thought 0 will do for sprite.property. My sole defence is
that I never use that syntax anyway because it's evil ;p

They're mostly interchangable, although I often use 0, since you can use it
for the gpdl (= getPropertyDescriptonList). The difference between the two
is:
put the currentSpriteNum
--0
put me.spriteNum
--0
the thing about me.spriteNum is that it can't be used untill the behavior is
instantiated, so if you put it in the gpdl, you get an error. also, you can
use the "if not the currentSpriteNum" syntax.

Or just use getter/setter methods, with "sendSprite (0,
#SetWhateverProperty, newValue)" - which I suggested in the first place...
