  • Just to add something to @SinisterSoft answer, if you don't understand what you're doing - sometimes I feel this way ;) - for debugging purposes you can print_r() your parent sprite and read its children sprites (and their children, and metatables...).

    This won't give you the exact ordering inside each parent, since it uses "pairs" to parse the array, but if your question is related to who is parent to who this should give you a start. :)
    --recursive print of tables, by ar2sawseen
    function print_r (t, indent, done)
    done = done or {}
    indent = indent or ''
    local nextIndent -- Storage for next indentation value
    for key, value in pairs (t) do
    if type (value) == "table" and not done [value] then
    nextIndent = nextIndent or
    (indent .. string.rep(' ',string.len(tostring (key))+2))
    -- Shortcut conditional allocation
    done [value] = true
    print (indent .. "[" .. tostring (key) .. "] => Table {");
    print (nextIndent .. "{");
    print_r (value, nextIndent .. string.rep(' ',2), done)
    print (nextIndent .. "}");
    else
    print (indent .. "[" .. tostring (key) .. "] => " .. tostring (value).."")
    end
    end
    end
