Yes. In typescript, anything thatā€™s 0, undefined, NaN, etc is treated as ā€œfalseā€ in IF statements. Thatā€™s why an undefined sprite will be treated as False in an IF block, which lets you check if it exists! ---

Oof šŸ˜… thatā€™s gotta be annoying! I myself rarely run into this problem while codingā€¦ maybe because I rarely use many sprites? I use a lot of ā€œfor every sprite of kindā€¦ā€ loops, which avoids this issue entirely, or I use general state variables not solely for keeping track of sprites that also happen to prevent the issue. ---

The one game that this happens most to uses lots of sprite wich all do different things individually, so for over half a year ive been getting around failed cast on null errors with ā€œPresenceā€ variables wich i only set to true while their related sprite is on screen. This is helpful to know and should help avoid my 500 variables issue from now on. ---

for an even better check, iā€™d use @jwunderlā€™s arcade-sprite-utils which has a block that will tell you if a sprite is undefined/null or destroyed ---
