Phaser.State

new State()

This is a base State class which can be extended if you are creating your own game. It provides quick access to common functions such as the camera, cache, input, match, sound and more.

Methods

create()

create is called once preload has completed, this includes the loading of any assets from the Loader. If you don't have a preload method then create is the first method called in your State.

Source - core/State.js, line 132

loadRender()

loadRender is called during the Loader process. This only happens if you've set one or more assets to load in the preload method. The difference between loadRender and render is that any objects you render in this method you must be sure their assets exist.

Source - core/State.js, line 123

loadUpdate()

loadUpdate is called during the Loader process. This only happens if you've set one or more assets to load in the preload method.

Source - core/State.js, line 115

paused()

This method will be called if the core game loop is paused.

Source - core/State.js, line 169

pauseUpdate()

pauseUpdate is called while the game is paused instead of preUpdate, update and postUpdate.

Source - core/State.js, line 177

preload()

preload is called first. Normally you'd use this to load your game assets (or those needed for the current State) You shouldn't create any objects in this method that require assets that you're also loading in this method, as they won't yet be available.

Source - core/State.js, line 105

render()

Nearly all display objects in Phaser render automatically, you don't need to tell them to render. However the render method is called AFTER the game renderer and plugins have rendered, so you're able to do any final post-processing style effects here. Note that this happens before plugins postRender takes place.

Source - core/State.js, line 151

resize()

If your game is set to Scalemode RESIZE then each time the browser resizes it will call this function, passing in the new width and height.

Source - core/State.js, line 161

shutdown()

This method will be called when the State is shutdown (i.e. you switch to another state from this one).

Source - core/State.js, line 185

update()

The update method is left empty for your own use. It is called during the core game loop AFTER debug, physics, plugins and the Stage have had their preUpdate methods called. If is called BEFORE Stage, Tweens, Sounds, Input, Physics, Particles and Plugins have had their postUpdate methods called.
