whoops, replied to author....

What I wanted to ask before was won't 'u' be overwritten with a new
object each time the loop ticks over?

what I want to do is have, say 5 users in a game, so I'd have to spawn
5 objects. I can't do that because I have'nt hardcoded any object
names for them.

or does it somehow work? how would I address them if they all have the
name 'u'?
