Hello,
I have recently jumped into learning about sprites and have hit a bit of

a roadblock with my code.  My C book isn't much help and I am not
sure where to look next. Here's the problem.

My sprite structure is like this declared in my game.h file.

typedef struct _sprite
{
  ... some variables...
 BITMAP *bitmap;
}SPRITE;

SPRITE *sprite[10];

In my main file I am initializing the bitmaps for each sprite from my
data file like this.

void sprite_init()
{
blit(file[0].dat,sprite[0]->bitmap,0,0,0,0,16,16);
blit(file[1].dat,sprite[1]->bitmap,0,0,0,0,16,16);
etc.
}

Problem: For some reason the second blit overwrites the
first one and I end up with the same sprite for each.
Can anyone offer assistance please?

Thanks!!
