Phaser Class: Tilemap

new Tilemap(game, key, tileWidth, tileHeight, width, height)

Creates a new Phaser.Tilemap object. The map can either be populated with data from a Tiled JSON file or from a CSV file. To do this pass the Cache key as the first parameter. When using Tiled data you need only provide the key. When using CSV data you must provide the key and the tileWidth and tileHeight parameters. If creating a blank tilemap to be populated later, you can either specify no parameters at all and then use Tilemap.create or pass the map and tile dimensions here. Note that all Tilemaps use a base tile size to calculate dimensions from, but that a TilemapLayer may have its own unique tile size that overrides it. A Tile map is rendered to the display using a TilemapLayer. It is not added to the display list directly itself. A map may have multiple layers. You can perform operations on the map data such as copying, pasting, filling and shuffling the tiles around.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Default	Description
`game`	Phaser.Game			Game reference to the currently running game.
`key`	string	<optional>		The key of the tilemap data as stored in the Cache. If you're creating a blank map either leave this parameter out or pass `null`.
`tileWidth`	number	<optional>	32	The pixel width of a single map tile. If using CSV data you must specify this. Not required if using Tiled map data.
`tileHeight`	number	<optional>	32	The pixel height of a single map tile. If using CSV data you must specify this. Not required if using Tiled map data.
`width`	number	<optional>	10	The width of the map in tiles. If this map is created from Tiled or CSV data you don't need to specify this.
`height`	number	<optional>	10	The height of the map in tiles. If this map is created from Tiled or CSV data you don't need to specify this.

createFromObjects(name, gid, key, frame, exists, autoCull, group, CustomClass, adjustY)

Creates a Sprite for every object matching the given gid in the map data. You can optionally specify the group that the Sprite will be created in. If none is given it will be created in the World. All properties from the map data objectgroup are copied across to the Sprite, so you can use this as an easy way to configure Sprite properties from within the map editor. For example giving an object a property of alpha: 0.5 in the map editor will duplicate that when the Sprite is created. You could also give it a value like: body.velocity.x: 100 to set it moving automatically.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Default	Description
`name`	string			The name of the Object Group to create Sprites from.
`gid`	number			The layer array index value, or if a string is given the layer name within the map data.
`key`	string			The Game.cache key of the image that this Sprite will use.
`frame`	number \| string	<optional>		If the Sprite image contains multiple frames you can specify which one to use here.
`exists`	boolean	<optional>	true	The default exists state of the Sprite.
`autoCull`	boolean	<optional>	false	The default autoCull state of the Sprite. Sprites that are autoCulled are culled from the camera if out of its range.
`group`	Phaser.Group	<optional>	Phaser.World	Group to add the Sprite to. If not specified it will be added to the World group.
`CustomClass`	object	<optional>	Phaser.Sprite	If you wish to create your own class, rather than Phaser.Sprite, pass the class here. Your class must extend Phaser.Sprite and have the same constructor parameters.
`adjustY`	boolean	<optional>	true	By default the Tiled map editor uses a bottom-left coordinate system. Phaser uses top-left. So most objects will appear too low down. This parameter moves them up by their height.

Source - tilemap/Tilemap.js, line 361

createFromTiles(tiles, replacements, key, group, properties, layer) → {integer}

Creates a Sprite for every object matching the given tile indexes in the map data. You can specify the group that the Sprite will be created in. If none is given it will be created in the World. You can optional specify if the tile will be replaced with another after the Sprite is created. This is useful if you want to lay down special tiles in a level that are converted to Sprites, but want to replace the tile itself with a floor tile or similar once converted.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Default	Description
`tiles`	integer \| Array			The tile index, or array of indexes, to create Sprites from.
`replacements`	integer \| Array			The tile index, or array of indexes, to change a converted tile to. Set to `null` to not change.
`key`	string			The Game.cache key of the image that this Sprite will use.
`group`	Phaser.Group	<optional>	Phaser.World	Group to add the Sprite to. If not specified it will be added to the World group.
`properties`	object	<optional>		An object that contains the default properties for your newly created Sprite. This object will be iterated and any matching Sprite property will be set.
`layer`	number \| string \| Phaser.TilemapLayer	<optional>		The layer to operate on.

Returns:

integer -

The number of Sprites that were created.

Source - tilemap/Tilemap.js, line 421

createLayer(layer, width, height, group) → {Phaser.TilemapLayer}

Creates a new TilemapLayer object. By default TilemapLayers are fixed to the camera. The layer parameter is important. If you've created your map in Tiled then you can get this by looking in Tiled and looking at the Layer name. Or you can open the JSON file it exports and look at the layers[].name value. Either way it must match. If you wish to create a blank layer to put your own tiles on then see Tilemap.createBlankLayer.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Description
`layer`	number \| string		The layer array index value, or if a string is given the layer name, within the map data that this TilemapLayer represents.
`width`	number	<optional>	The rendered width of the layer, should never be wider than Game.width. If not given it will be set to Game.width.
`height`	number	<optional>	The rendered height of the layer, should never be wider than Game.height. If not given it will be set to Game.height.

Sets collision on a range of tiles where the tile IDs increment sequentially. Calling this with a start value of 10 and a stop value of 14 would set collision for tiles 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14. The collides parameter controls if collision will be enabled (true) or disabled (false).

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Default	Description
`start`	number			The first index of the tile to be set for collision.
`stop`	number			The last index of the tile to be set for collision.
`collides`	boolean	<optional>	true	If true it will enable collision. If false it will clear collision.
`layer`	number \| string \| Phaser.TilemapLayer	<optional>		The layer to operate on. If not given will default to this.currentLayer.
`recalculate`	boolean	<optional>	true	Recalculates the tile faces after the update.

setCollisionByExclusion(indexes, collides, layer, recalculate)

Sets collision on all tiles in the given layer, except for the IDs of those in the given array. The collides parameter controls if collision will be enabled (true) or disabled (false).

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Default	Description
`indexes`	array			An array of the tile IDs to not be counted for collision.
`collides`	boolean	<optional>	true	If true it will enable collision. If false it will clear collision.
`layer`	number \| string \| Phaser.TilemapLayer	<optional>		The layer to operate on. If not given will default to this.currentLayer.
`recalculate`	boolean	<optional>	true	Recalculates the tile faces after the update.

<internal> setCollisionByIndex(index, collides, layer, recalculate)

Sets collision values on a tile in the set. You shouldn't usually call this method directly, instead use setCollision, setCollisionBetween or setCollisionByExclusion.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Default	Description
`index`	number			The index of the tile on the layer.
`collides`	boolean	<optional>	true	If true it will enable collision on the tile. If false it will clear collision values from the tile.
`layer`	number	<optional>		The layer to operate on. If not given will default to this.currentLayer.
`recalculate`	boolean	<optional>	true	Recalculates the tile faces after the update.

Internal:

This member is internal (protected) and may be modified or removed in the future.

setLayer(layer)

Sets the current layer to the given index.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
`layer`	number \| string \| Phaser.TilemapLayer	The layer to set as current.

Source - tilemap/Tilemap.js, line 1155

setPreventRecalculate(value)

Turn off/on the recalculation of faces for tile or collision updates. setPreventRecalculate(true) puts recalculation on hold while setPreventRecalculate(false) recalculates all the changed layers.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
`value`	boolean	If true it will put the recalculation on hold.

setTileIndexCallback(indexes, callback, callbackContext, layer)

Sets a global collision callback for the given tile index within the layer. This will affect all tiles on this layer that have the same index. If a callback is already set for the tile index it will be replaced. Set the callback to null to remove it. If you want to set a callback for a tile at a specific location on the map then see setTileLocationCallback.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Description
`indexes`	number \| array		Either a single tile index, or an array of tile indexes to have a collision callback set for.
`callback`	function		The callback that will be invoked when the tile is collided with.
`callbackContext`	object		The context under which the callback is called.
`layer`	number \| string \| Phaser.TilemapLayer	<optional>	The layer to operate on. If not given will default to this.currentLayer.

setTileLocationCallback(x, y, width, height, callback, callbackContext, layer)

Sets a global collision callback for the given map location within the layer. This will affect all tiles on this layer found in the given area. If a callback is already set for the tile index it will be replaced. Set the callback to null to remove it. If you want to set a callback for a tile at a specific location on the map then see setTileLocationCallback.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Description
`x`	number		X position of the top left of the area to copy (given in tiles, not pixels)
`y`	number		Y position of the top left of the area to copy (given in tiles, not pixels)
`width`	number		The width of the area to copy (given in tiles, not pixels)
`height`	number		The height of the area to copy (given in tiles, not pixels)
`callback`	function		The callback that will be invoked when the tile is collided with.
`callbackContext`	object		The context under which the callback is called.
`layer`	number \| string \| Phaser.TilemapLayer	<optional>	The layer to operate on. If not given will default to this.currentLayer.

setTileSize(tileWidth, tileHeight)

Sets the base tile size for the map.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
`tileWidth`	number	The width of the tiles the map uses for calculations.
`tileHeight`	number	The height of the tiles the map uses for calculations.

shuffle(x, y, width, height, layer)

Shuffles a set of tiles in a given area. It will only randomise the tiles in that area, so if they're all the same nothing will appear to have changed!

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Description
`x`	number		X position of the top left of the area to operate one, given in tiles, not pixels.
`y`	number		Y position of the top left of the area to operate one, given in tiles, not pixels.
`width`	number		The width in tiles of the area to operate on.
`height`	number		The height in tiles of the area to operate on.
`layer`	number \| string \| Phaser.TilemapLayer	<optional>	The layer to operate on.

swap(tileA, tileB, x, y, width, height, layer)

Scans the given area for tiles with an index matching tileA and swaps them with tileB.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Description
`tileA`	number		First tile index.
`tileB`	number		Second tile index.
`x`	number		X position of the top left of the area to operate one, given in tiles, not pixels.
`y`	number		Y position of the top left of the area to operate one, given in tiles, not pixels.
`width`	number		The width in tiles of the area to operate on.
`height`	number		The height in tiles of the area to operate on.
