Change a SKSpriteNode Image

This method is actually re-creating the the mover object.

mover = [SKSpriteNode spriteNodeWithTexture:explodeTexture1];

You just need to update the texture with:

mover.texture = explodeTexture1;

Swift version:

mover.texture = SKTexture.textureWithImageNamed("explode")

Swift version 3.0:

mover.texture = SKTexture(imageNamed: "explode")

You have to change the texture property of your mover object.

Something like this:

mover.texture = [SKTexture textureWithImageNamed:@"explode"];
