	UIImage *ballImage = [UIImage imageNamed:@"ball.png"];

	for (int i=0; i<10 ; i++){
		
		UIImageView *newBall = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage: ballImage];

		//set X and Y of the new imageView
		newBall.center = CGPointMake(100 + i*10, 100+ i*10);
		
		//add to array
		[arrayOfBalls addObject:newBall];
		
		//add to the view, so it gets displayed.
		[self.view addSubview: newBall];
	}

Not sure why - the syntax is fine. You might get a warning if you already have a variable called myBlock; when you make two variables with the same name in different scopes, the local one hides the gobal one.

,But if i already have a array of enemies do i need another one?

My array of enemies contains uiimageview of a enemy that i added to the array when the game starts and i have a timer to move the enemy, a timer to call spawnenemy method and a timer to keep score...

And i need to spawn enemies randomly in the x axe (i only need one type of enemy that i have added to the array)... how can this be done??
And how can i increase a timers intervals in a void?? that is being called some time.....



Thanks for all current replies and future...
