Methods
-
addPointer() → {Phaser.Pointer}

Add a new Pointer object to the Input Manager. By default Input creates 3 pointer objects: mousePointer, pointer1 and pointer2. If you need more then use this to create a new one, up to a maximum of 10.
- Source:
Returns:
A reference to the new Pointer object that was created.
- Type
- Phaser.Pointer
-
<protected> boot()
-
Starts the Input Manager running.
- Source:
-
destroy()
-
Stops all of the Input Managers from running.
- Source:
-

-
Get the next Pointer object whos active property matches the given state
Parameters:
Name Type Description stateboolean The state the Pointer should be in (false for inactive, true for active).
- Source:
Returns:
A Pointer object or null if no Pointer object matches the requested state.
- Type
- Phaser.Pointer
-
getPointerFromIdentifier(identifier) → {Phaser.Pointer}
-
Get the Pointer object whos identified property matches the given identifier value.
Parameters:
Name Type Description identifiernumber The Pointer.identifier value to search for.
- Source:

- Type
- Phaser.Pointer
-
reset(hard)

-
Resets the speed and old position properties.
Parameters:

ynumber Sets the oldPosition.y value.
- Source:
-
setMoveCallback(callback, callbackContext)
-
Sets a callback that is fired every time the activePointer receives a DOM move event such as a mousemove or touchmove. It will be called every time the activePointer moves, which in a multi-touch game can be a lot of times, so this is best to only use if you've limited input to a single pointer (i.e. mouse or touch)
Parameters:
Name Type Description callbackfunction The callback that will be called each time the activePointer receives a DOM move event.
callbackContextobject The context in which the callback will be called.
- Source:
-
startPointer(event) → {Phaser.Pointer}
-
Find the first free Pointer object and start it, passing in the event data. This is called automatically by Phaser.Touch and Phaser.MSPointer.

- Source:
Returns:
The Pointer object that was started or null if no Pointer object is available.
- Type
- Phaser.Pointer

-
Stops the matching Pointer object, passing in the event data.
Parameters:
Name Type Description eventAny The event data from the Touch event.
- Source:
Returns:
The Pointer object that was stopped or null if no Pointer object is available.
- Type
- Phaser.Pointer
-
<protected> update()
-
Updates the Input Manager. Called by the core Game loop.
- Source:
