Is there a method or function that tell us how many objects are there in the current scene, something like this:

getObjectsCount()

Thanks.

The way I handle it is to maintain a list of objects using a SimSet. This way I'm tracking the objects that matter.

You can call getSceneObjectCount() on the t2dSceneGraph object since all objects need to belong to a scene graph to be in the game.

Kevin's advice is a more controlled, cleaner way to manage scene objects.

Cool! I didn't know about getSceneObjectCount(). But I can't think of a reason to use it at the moment.
