Details

Immediately stops the animation, removing it from its parent timeline, and releasing it for garbage collection. Note: don't kill() an animation if you want to use it again later - you could pause() it instead if you want to reuse it.

// kill the timeline
tl.kill();

// set to null so the reference is removed
tl = null;
