- In the "Particle Class" demo there was no explicitly-created FrameData which cause issues later on.
This cache updates ensures that FrameData will be automatically created for any added cached bitmap data, unless such is explicitly supplied or forbidden.
- Impact: low
- AnimationManager.loadFrameData is called for all Sprites with BitmapData (except those with an explicit null FrameData) added to the cache
Cache.autoResolveURL is a new boolean (default `false`) that automatically builds a cached map of all loaded assets vs. their absolute URLs, for use with Cache.getURL and Cache.checkURL. Note that in 2.1.3 and earlier this was enabled by default, but has since been moved behind this property which needs to be set to `true` *before* you load any assets to enable.
Cache._resolveUrl has been renamed to Cache._resolveURL internally and gained a new parameter. This method is a private internal one.
Cache.getUrl is deprecated. The same method is now available as Cache.getURL.
XML files weren't being added to the URL map.
Cache._resolveURL was causing a Sound double-load in Firefox and causing errors (thanks @domonyiv #1253)
Cache.getFrameData has a new parameter: `map` which allows you to specify which cache to get the FrameData from, i.e. `Phaser.Cache.IMAGE` or `Phaser.Cache.BITMAPDATA`.
Sprite.loadTexture if given a BitmapData as the texture will now query the cache to see if it has any associated FrameData, and if so it will load that into the AnimationManager.
Cache now has support for XML files stored in their own container. You can add them with `cache.addXML` (typically this is done from the Loader automatically for you) and get them with `cache.getXML(key)`. There is also `cache.checkXMLKey(key)`, `cache.checkKeys` and `cache.removeXML(key)`.
Instead of making a distinction between single frame images and Sprite
Sheets, I added a simple FrameData with one Frame to every image that
gets loaded. This way, a lot of the engine code can be simplified.
For instance, you can play animations on any Sprite without having to
check the “frame count” of its image anymore.
The engine doesn’t have to check for non-existing .frameData anymore.
An animation can keep on playing when an image happens to be set with 1
frame, continuing its animation when after that, another image is set
with multiple frames.
Think of it this way: an image with one frame is an animation of just
one frame.
Sprite.updateCrop is available if you wish to update an externally referenced crop rectangle.
Sprites and Images now have their own textures objects, they are no longer references to those stored in the global Pixi.TextureCache. This allows you to redefine the texture frame dynamically without messing up any other Sprites in your game, such as via cropping. They still share global Base Textures, so image references are kept to a minimum.
Sprite.resetFrame will revert the Sprites texture frame back to its defaults dimensions. This is called when you call Sprite.crop with no rectangle, to reset the crop effect, but can be userful in other situations so we've left it as a public method.
Pointer.withinGame is now accurate based on game scale and updated as the Pointer moves.
Stage.bounds is now updated if the game canvas offset changes position. Note that it gives the un-scaled game dimensions.
Cache.checkCanvasKey(key) - Check if a Canvas key exists in the cache (thanks to @delta11 for the proposal)
Cache.checkTextureKey(key) - Check if a Texture key exists in the cache (thanks to @delta11 for the proposal)
Cache.checkSoundKey(key) - Check if a Sound key exists in the cache (thanks to @delta11 for the proposal)
Cache.checkTextKey(key) - Check if a Text key exists in the cache (thanks to @delta11 for the proposal)
Cache.checkPhysicsKey(key) - Check if a Physics key exists in the cache (thanks to @delta11 for the proposal)
Cache.checkTilemapKey(key) - Check if a Tilemap key exists in the cache (thanks to @delta11 for the proposal)
Cache.checkBinaryKey(key) - Check if a Binary key exists in the cache (thanks to @delta11 for the proposal)
Cache.checkBitmapDataKey(key) - Check if a BitmapData key exists in the cache (thanks to @delta11 for the proposal)
Cache.checkBitmapFontKey(key) - Check if a BitmapFont key exists in the cache (thanks to @delta11 for the proposal)
Cache.checkJSONKey(key) - Check if a JSON key exists in the cache (thanks to @delta11 for the proposal)
Timer.clearPendingEvents will purge any events marked for deletion, this is run automatically at the start of the update loop.
The main Timer loop could incorrectly remove TimeEvent if a new one was added specifically during an event callback (thanks @garyyeap, fix#710)
We've had a number of people in the channel ask for the ability to know when a file has started loading and to get the file names of said files.
Added the OnFileStart signal to do just that.
Remove "navigator.isCocoonJS" here as CocoonJS has neither window.DOMParser nor will a createElement('div') work under Accelerated Canvas/WebGL mode. (Under WebView mode, there will probably be a DOMParser object. Most have it.)
Loader.setPreloadSprite() will now set sprite.visible = true once the crop has been applied. Should help avoid issues (#430) on super-slow connections.
InputHandler.pixelPerfectOver - performs a pixel perfect check to see if any pointer is over the current object (warning: very expensive!)
InputHandler.pixelPerfectClick - performs a pixel perfect check but only when the pointer touches/clicks on the current object.
Previously using a Pixel Perfect check didn't work if the Sprite was rotated or had a non-zero anchor point, now works under all conditions + atlas frames.
Tweens - Example showing how to use the tween events, onStart, onLoop and onComplete.
Lots of documentation fixes in the Tween class.
Tweens fire an onLoop event if they are set to repeat. onComplete is now only fired for the final repeat (or never if the repeat is infinite)
Tween.onStart is now called when the tween starts AFTER the delay value, if given (thanks stevenbouma)
Throw exceptions if wrong format given to tilemap or textureatlas. Previously, old onload remained active and error happened in the wrong (and hard to diagnose) place.
