You might want to post some code that demonstrates exactly what you're doing, both with and without the static.

Right now i don't have any code except a class with variables that gets initiated when the constructor runs.

I am asking this since i need help creating the class i need.
But here is some code for example:

Imagine that these classes are located in different files as well!

Class Loader
{
public:
	 Loader()
	 {
		  SDL_Surface* tile = IMG_Load("tile.png"); //img_load is my own func
		  SDL_Surface* player = IMG_Load("player.png");
	 }
	 SDL_Surface* tile;
	 SDL_Surface* player;
}


Class Tile: public Loader
{
public:
	 Tile();
	 draw(SDL_Surface* screen)
	 {
		  //draw out the image tile from Loader
	 }
}


Class Player: public Loader
{
public:
	 Player();
	 draw(SDL_Surface* screen)
	 {
		  //draw out the image tile from Loader
	 }
}


main
{
	 init()
	 {
	 	 Loader loader;
	 	 Tile tile;
	 	 Player player;
	 }
	 draw
	 {
		  tile.draw();
		  player.draw();
	 }

	 init();
	 draw();
}

In that case isn't tile and player variables inside Loader being created twice. Once for class Tile and once for class Player?
