yes. thx you very much. people like you are what makes this forum great!! thx again.

extension as i know of is a convenience way of writing 1 thing in another place. till now all teachers said it is for a cleaner code. make sense so that astronautJason should intilze in the same time... (i come from background of theoritical mathematics) believe me if i ask something its really interesting. answers like "I guess you do not understand what is instance member." don't help. what make me think you don't know the answer for this yourself... and yes i know how to fix the problem (init, static... you name it) . what is interesting y this problem appears in models that i perceive as identical. thx again

thx very much. but i m still dazzled it works with extension. after all the let astronautJason initializes in the same time in both projects. in 1 it works and in the other it doesn't. go figure!!!!????
