Forums » Help » Find parent

Hello.

I know I can do checks with instanceof, but how can I find out exactly what is my object's parent? I need to pass an entity to a function, that will spawn another entity of the same type as it's parameter.

Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately, in JavaScript, nested objects (children) have no knowledge of their parent object. You'll have to create a property for the child object that references the object that's created it during instantiation.
