Phaser.StateManager.created is a new read-only boolean that tells you if the State has finished running its `create` method. If it doesn't have one it's always true.
The StateManager would incorrectly call `loadRender` while the game was paused or if the State didn't have an `render` method defined even after the loader was completed.
Group.physicsSortDirection is a new property allowing you to set a custom sort direction for Arcade Physics Sprites within the Group hash. Previously Arcade Physics used one single sort direction (defined on `Phaser.Physics.Arcade.sortDirection`) but this change allows you to specifically control how each and every Group is sorted, so you can now combine tall and wide Groups with narrow and thin in a single system.
Loader.onLoadComplete is dispatched *before* the Loader is reset. If you have a `create` method in your State please note that the Loader will have been reset before this method is called. This allows you to immediately re-use the Loader without having to first reset it manually.

-Phaser.DOM: inViewport => inLayoutViewport
This change implements the original suggestion of using `updateTransform`,
but applies so globally instead of within a particular postUpdate
function.
Now the game loop calls `updateTransform` after each `updateLogic` call
unconditionally; it is updates that change the world that are accounted
for, not the rendering. This removes some previous checks that were
preventing correct behavior with the previous patch.
This makes the assumption that game objects (eg. Sprites) are only
modified within callbacks triggered before the completion of the
`postUpdate` walking of the scene graph.
- User code that runs outside of the "game update", such as a `setTimeout`
timer, will need to explicitly update transformations so that the world
is synced by the next `preUpdate`: but this is not the expected case and
is already outside the Phaser update model.
- If this assumption does not hold or is too weak, the transformations
could also be applied once at the start of every game update loop
(before any render or update). This change would at most double the time
spent on apply the transformations.
The constant application of `updateTransform` passes all reported failing
cases and resolves#1424 just as the original proposal of having the
change performed in the Sprite postUpdate but will work more consistently
across all scene-bound game objects.
On a desktop Chrome browser the inclusion also has minimal relative impact
as shown by the summarized results. The percentages given are the summed
CPU time of relevant required operations along with that of the
updateTransform itself:
- 10,000 non-collision particles:
- 12% pre/post update, 2.4% updateTransform
- 100 colliding particles:
- 2% pre/post update & collision, 0.3% updateTransform
- 1000 colliding particles:
- 40% pre/post update & collision, 1% updateTransform
With this patch the updateTransform time does creep up _slightly_ (vs just
in `Sprite.postUpdate`) but it is still dominated by required game
updates, and more so, by any actual work like Physics.
- Clarified proper usage of `pageAlignVertically` and add note about 2.2
change and how to obtain 2.1 behavior.
- Removed the `@readonly` status of the `parentIsWindow` and `parentNode`;
these can be updated in a controlled manner.
- Added intra-hyperlinks
- Updated some ancillary documentation
The click trampoline added for IE prevents Chrome for Android from being
able to launch Full Screen mode with the default parameters for
`ScaleManger#startFullScreen`. (The desktop version of Chrome is not
affected.)
This fix adds an additional compatibility settings (`clickTrampoline`)
that can be used to configure when such is used. By default the
'when-not-mouse' mode is only enabled for Desktop browsers, where the
primary input is ubquitously a mouse.
There are no known breaking compatibility changes - the Full Screen should
be initiatable in Chrome for Android as it was in 2.1.x. The default
Android browser does not support Full Screen.
As pointed out, `newChild.parent` could be accessed after it was set to
undefined. This fix unifies the code from the various `destroy` methods so
the previou issue does not occur.
