Sprite::clone()

Creates a clone of this sprite, like Scratch's "create clone of myself": a new sprite of the same class (a clone of a Cat is a Cat), with the same costume, position, direction, size and pen, and a copy of the variables of your class. It is put on the stage right behind this sprite, and its whenStartsAsClone() runs; the constructor does not run again.

Numbers, text and booleans in your variables are the clone's own. A list or another object is shared with the original: give the clone its own in whenStartsAsClone() if it needs one.

Bullet bullet = (Bullet) this.clone();
