Input and Pointer now use the new ArrayList instead of a LinkedList, which resolve list item removable during callback issues.
Input.reset no longer resets every interactive item it knows of, because they are removed during the destroy phase and can now persist between States if needed.
InputHandler._setHandCursor private var wasn't properly set, meaning the hand cursor could sometimes remain (during destroy sequence for example)
All Game Objects have a new property: destroyPhase (boolean) which is true if the object is in the process of being destroyed, otherwise false.
The PIXI.AbstractFilter is now included in the Phaser Pixi build by default, allowing for easier use of external Pixi Filters.
Emitter.setAlpha has a new 'rate' parameter which allows particles to change alpha over time, using any Easing value or timescale.
Emitter.bringToTop and Emitter.sendToBack are booleans that let you optionally set the display order of the Particle when emitted.
Emitter.particleAnchor allows you to control the anchor of emitted Particles. Defaults to 0.5 (same as before) but now under your control.
Emitter now emits Phaser.Particle objects instead of Phaser.Sprites, which can be extended as required.
Emitter has had various local properties removed that were already declared in Phaser.Group which it extends.
ArcadePhysics.Body.reset incorrectly set the Body.rotation to Sprite.rotation instead of angle.
Emitter.emitParticle resets the rotation on the particle to zero before emitting it.
Lots of fixes to the TypeScript definitions file (thanks as always to clark-stevenson for his tireless work on these)
Emitters now bring the particle they are about to emit to the top of the Group before doing so. Avoids particles hidden behind others.
ArcadePhysics.Body.setSize corrected to take the parameters as positive, not negative values.
ArcadePhysics.Body now checks the Sprite scale automatically and adjusts the body size accordingly (fix#608)
Emitter.particleClass can now be set to any object that extends Phaser.Sprite, which will be emitted instead of a regular Sprite.
World.shutdown now removes all children iteratively, calling destroy on each one, ultimately performing a soft reset of the World.
Objects with a scale.x or y of 0 are no longer considered valid for input (fix#602)
InputHandler will set the browser pointer back to default if destroyed while over (fix#602)
Group.destroy has a new parameter: `soft`. A soft destruction won't remove the Group from its parent or null game references. Default is `false`.
InputHandler.validForInput is a new method that checks if the handler and its owner should be considered for Pointer input handling or not.
Group.replace will now return the old child, the one that was replaced in the Group.
