please excuse the messiness of my code as im still a beginner, but i'm here to ask about a problem im having. I'm trying to create a timer for donkey kong to throw barrels at specific time intervals but im not sure exactly how to work it out. I have the logic figured out for one barrel, but trying to apply my thinking for generating multiple isnt working (it worked when i did it for some simple shapes in a test). If i had to hazard a guess, i assume it might have to do with it trying to index my animation frame on a new barrel, because i dont think i have it set up correctly, but im not sure why my first barrel isnt blitting in the place i have it set. Here's my code for reference:
