I am using RubyMotion motion-game. I am trying to create a sprite, or ui widget, or really almost any other class that has an image associated with it. The trick is I want to create it from a URL, not a file.
Is there is an existing way to do this in motion-game? How? I see api methods like MG::Sprite.new and MG::Web.new but am unsure of how to take data from a url and display it as a sprite.
If it doesn't exist would the solution involve exposing cocos stuff in C++? Any help or examples of something similar would be appreciated.
