group.destroyEach()

Removes all the sprites in a group from the animation.

The removed sprites won't be drawn or updated anymore.

// Left mouse button destroys yellow sprites, right mouse button destroys red sprites. 
var group1 = createGroup();
for (var i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
  group1.add(createSprite(randomNumber(0, 400), randomNumber(0, 400), 100, 100));
}
group1.setColorEach("yellow");

var group2 = createGroup();
for (var i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
  group2.add(createSprite(randomNumber(0, 400), randomNumber(0, 400), 100, 100));
}
group2.setColorEach("red");
function draw() {
  background("white");
  drawSprites();
  if (mouseDown("leftButton")  ) {
    group1.destroyEach();
  } 
  if (mouseDown("rightButton")  ) {
    group2.destroyEach();
  }   
}
