Phaser.Physics.Arcade. Body

new Body(sprite)

The Physics Body is linked to a single Sprite. All physics operations should be performed against the body rather than the Sprite itself. For example you can set the velocity, acceleration, bounce values etc all on the Body.

Parameters:
Name Type Description
sprite Phaser.Sprite

The Sprite object this physics body belongs to.
