arrays - positioning blocks in breakout clone -

i trying make breakout clone without totally stuck. have created xml file , referenced etc. can see when debug pulls data through intending make first level have 4 blocks , dsplaying one. (curiously displays 3rd of 4 in xml list ?!?!)

i cannot paste xml code quite confident ok copied msdn website

please me

after

for (int = 0; < totalblocks; i++) {     blocks[i] = block;     blocks[i].position = new vector2(blocklocations[i].x, blocklocations[i].y); } 

you have array totalblocks elements referencing same block , therefore blocks displayed @ same position. want separate instance of block each entry in array.

   (int = 0; < totalblocks; i++)    {        blocks[i] = new block(40, 20, content);        blocks[i].position = new vector2(blocklocations[i].x, blocklocations[i].y);    }
