javascript item splice self out of list

Question

If I have an array of objects is there any way possible for the item to splice itself out of the array that contains it?

For example: If a bad guy dies he will splice hi

Answer 1

I would suggest creating an object/class that represents the active enemies list. Create methods on that instance for adding/removing a given item from the list - abstracting the inner workings of the data structure from the outside world. If the active enemies list is global (e.g. there's only one of them), then you can just reference it directly to call the remove function when you die. If it's not global, then you'll have to give each item a reference to the list so it can call the function to remove itself.
