Construct Sprite Start Index

Quick video showing how the new 'start frame' property in Sprite can be used to avoid creating entire new sprites for every possible obstacle in your game. Would be handy for people who find that 80% of their object types dont actually do anything except serve as decoration.

@CheezyWEAPON Shouldn't take more memory than if you put the same images in different objects and still use all of them. I'm not sure tho, just assuming...

[CheezyWEAPON]

Does this take up a lot of memory when you put all those images into one object?

Actually David drew those himself. He had a thread on the Scirra forum showing how to do it.
