Alright, I am having alot of issues with creating my own class called StageClass. Do you know of any tutorial on how to create a custom class? Every google search turns up junk about how the iphone is world class ect. I'll keep looking though.

Edit: So I finally found some tutorials, and here's what I'm up to:

The only problem is, I can't get the image to show up at all.

//
//  StageClass.h
//

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>

@interface StageClass : NSObject
{
	// Initialization of the properties
	int plantState;
	int water;
	int harvest;
	int harvestCounter;
	int fertilizer;
	UIImageView *imageView;
	
}

@property(assign, readwrite) int plantState;
@property(assign, readwrite) int water;
@property(assign, readwrite) int harvest;
@property(assign, readwrite) int harvestCounter;
@property(assign, readwrite) int fertilizer;
@property(retain, readwrite) UIImageView *imageView;


@end

//  StageClass.m

#import "StageClass.h"

@implementation StageClass
@synthesize plantState = _plantState;
@synthesize water = _water;
@synthesize fertilizer = _fertilizer;
@synthesize harvest = _harvest;
@synthesize harvestCounter = _harvestCounter;
@synthesize imageView = _imageView;

- (void)endDayCycle{
	switch (plantState) {
		case 0:
			water = 0;
			fertilizer = 0;
			[imageView stopAnimating];
			imageView.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
			imageView.frame = CGRectMake(50, 430, 320, 350);
			imageView.animationImages = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:    
										 [UIImage imageNamed:@"empty_plot_filler.png"],nil] ;
			[imageView startAnimating];
			
			plantState = 0;
			break;
		case 1:
			if (fertilizer >= 3) {
				if (water >= 3) {
					water = 0;
					fertilizer = 0;
					[imageView stopAnimating];
					imageView.animationImages = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:    
												 [UIImage imageNamed:@"001.png"],
												 [UIImage imageNamed:@"001.png"],nil] ;;
					[imageView startAnimating];
					plantState = 2;
				} else {
					[imageView stopAnimating];
					imageView.animationImages = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:    
												 [UIImage imageNamed:@"empty_plot_filler.png"],nil] ;;
					[imageView startAnimating];
					plantState = 0;
				}
			} else {
				[imageView stopAnimating];
				imageView.animationImages = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:    
											 [UIImage imageNamed:@"empty_plot_filler.png"],nil] ;;
				[imageView startAnimating];
				plantState = 0;
			}
			break;
			
	}
}
-(void) dealloc
{
	[imageView release];
	[super dealloc];
}
