I don't think Var was a good idea.

I don't know if it is leaving anything around... It might be simply failing to call the Delete method at times.

Type Sprite
	Global SpriteRenderList:TList = New TList
	Global gid:Int = 0
	
	Field id:Int = gid

	Method New()
		gid:+1
		ListAddLast SpriteRenderList, Self
	End Method
	
	Method Delete()
		Print "REF CLEANED:id "+id
	End Method

	Method Remove()
		ListRemove SpriteRenderList, Self
		Print "Removed id "+id+", "+CountList(SpriteRenderList)+" total sprites now remaing"
	End Method
			
End Type

Local mt:Sprite = New Sprite
Local mt2:Sprite = New Sprite
Local mt3:Sprite = New Sprite

Print "id>"+mt.id
Print "id>"+mt2.id
Print "id>"+mt3.id

Print CountList(Sprite.SpriteRenderList)
mt.Remove; mt=Null; GCCollect() 

Print CountList(Sprite.SpriteRenderList)
mt2.Remove; mt2=Null; GCCollect()

Print CountList(Sprite.SpriteRenderList)
mt3.Remove; mt3=Null; GCCollect()

Print CountList(Sprite.SpriteRenderList)

GCCollect()
GCCollect()

End

The list is empty at least. But that doesn't mean types haven't been left in ram.
