new Rope(game, x, y, key, frame, points)
A Rope is a Sprite that has a repeating texture. The texture can be scrolled and scaled and will automatically wrap on the edges as it does so. Please note that Ropes, as with normal Sprites, have no input handler or physics bodies by default. Both need enabling. Example usage: https://github.com/codevinsky/phaser-rope-demo/blob/master/dist/demo.js
Parameters:
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
game |
Phaser.Game | A reference to the currently running game. |
x |
number | The x coordinate (in world space) to position the Rope at. |
y |
number | The y coordinate (in world space) to position the Rope at. |
key |
string | Phaser.RenderTexture | Phaser.BitmapData | PIXI.Texture | This is the image or texture used by the Rope during rendering. It can be a string which is a reference to the Cache entry, or an instance of a RenderTexture or PIXI.Texture. |
frame |
string | number | If this Rope is using part of a sprite sheet or texture atlas you can specify the exact frame to use by giving a string or numeric index. |
points |
Array | An array of {Phaser.Point}. |

-
alpha :Number
-
The opacity of the object.
- Inherited From:
- Source - pixi/display/DisplayObject.js, line 65
-
angle :number
-
Indicates the rotation of the Sprite, in degrees, from its original orientation. Values from 0 to 180 represent clockwise rotation; values from 0 to -180 represent counterclockwise rotation. Values outside this range are added to or subtracted from 360 to obtain a value within the range. For example, the statement player.angle = 450 is the same as player.angle = 90. If you wish to work in radians instead of degrees use the property Sprite.rotation instead. Working in radians is also a little faster as it doesn't have to convert the angle. The angle of this Sprite in degrees.

-
animations :Phaser.AnimationManager
-
This manages animations of the sprite. You can modify animations through it (see Phaser.AnimationManager)
- Source - gameobjects/Rope.js, line 63
-
autoCull :boolean
-
Should this Sprite be automatically culled if out of range of the camera? A culled sprite has its renderable property set to 'false'. Be advised this is quite an expensive operation, as it has to calculate the bounds of the object every frame, so only enable it if you really need it. A flag indicating if the Sprite should be automatically camera culled or not.
- Default Value:
- false
- Source - gameobjects/Rope.js, line 110
-
blendMode :Number
-
The blend mode to be applied to the sprite. Set to PIXI.blendModes.NORMAL to remove any blend mode.
- Inherited From:
- Default Value:
- PIXI.blendModes.NORMAL;
- Source - pixi/extras/Strip.js, line 51
-
body :Phaser.Physics.Arcade.Body|Phaser.Physics.P2.Body|Phaser.Physics.Ninja.Body|null
-
By default Sprites won't add themselves to any physics system and their physics body will be
null
. To enable them for physics you need to callgame.physics.enable(sprite, system)
wheresprite
is this object andsystem
is the Physics system you want to use to manage this body. Once enabled you can access all physics related properties viaSprite.body
.Important: Enabling a Sprite for P2 or Ninja physics will automatically set
Sprite.anchor
to 0.5 so the physics body is centered on the Sprite. If you need a different result then adjust or re-create the Body shape offsets manually, and/or reset the anchor after enabling physics.Type:
- Default Value:
- null
- Source - gameobjects/Rope.js, line 137
-
buttonMode :Boolean
-
This is used to indicate if the displayObject should display a mouse hand cursor on rollover
- Inherited From:
- Source - pixi/display/DisplayObject.js, line 90
-
cacheAsBitmap :Boolean
-
Set if this display object is cached as a bitmap. This basically takes a snap shot of the display object as it is at that moment. It can provide a performance benefit for complex static displayObjects. To remove simply set this property to 'null'
- Inherited From:
- Source - pixi/display/DisplayObject.js, line 436
-
cameraOffset :Phaser.Point
-
If this object is fixedToCamera then this stores the x/y offset that its drawn at, from the top-left of the camera view.
- Source - gameobjects/Rope.js, line 124
-
checkWorldBounds :boolean
-
If true the Sprite checks if it is still within the world each frame, when it leaves the world it dispatches Sprite.events.onOutOfBounds and optionally kills the sprite (if Sprite.outOfBoundsKill is true). By default this is disabled because the Sprite has to calculate its bounds every frame to support it, and not all games need it. Enable it by setting the value to true.
- Default Value:
- false
- Source - gameobjects/Rope.js, line 119
-
<readonly> children :Array.<DisplayObject>
-
[read-only] The array of children of this container.
Type:
- Array.<DisplayObject>

-
events :Phaser.Events
-
The Events you can subscribe to that are dispatched when certain things happen on this Sprite or its components.
- Source - gameobjects/Rope.js, line 58
-
exists :boolean
-
Rope.exists controls if the core game loop and physics update this Rope or not. When you set Rope.exists to false it will remove its Body from the physics world (if it has one) and also set Rope.visible to false. Setting Rope.exists to true will re-add the Body to the physics world (if it has a body) and set Rope.visible to true. If the Rope is processed by the core game update and physics.
- Source - gameobjects/Rope.js, line 621
-
filterArea :PIXI.Rectangle
-
The area the filter is applied to like the hitArea this is used as more of an optimisation rather than figuring out the dimensions of the displayObject each frame you can set this rectangle
- Inherited From:
- Source - pixi/display/DisplayObject.js, line 180
-
filters :Array.<Filter>
-
Sets the filters for the displayObject. IMPORTANT: This is a webGL only feature and will be ignored by the canvas renderer. To remove filters simply set this property to 'null'
Type:
- Array.<Filter>
- Inherited From:
- Source - pixi/display/DisplayObject.js, line 400
-
fixedToCamera :boolean
-
A Rope that is fixed to the camera uses its x/y coordinates as offsets from the top left of the camera. These are stored in Rope.cameraOffset. Note that the cameraOffset values are in addition to any parent in the display list. So if this Rope was in a Group that has x: 200, then this will be added to the cameraOffset.x Set to true to fix this Rope to the Camera at its current world coordinates.

-
hitArea :PIXI.Rectangle|PIXI.Circle|PIXI.Ellipse|PIXI.Polygon
-
This is the defined area that will pick up mouse / touch events. It is null by default. Setting it is a neat way of optimising the hitTest function that the interactionManager will use (as it will not need to hit test all the children)
Type:
- Inherited From:
- Source - pixi/display/DisplayObject.js, line 81
-
input :Phaser.InputHandler|null
-
The Input Handler for this object. Needs to be enabled with image.inputEnabled = true before you can use it.
Type:

-
inputEnabled :boolean
-
By default a Rope won't process any input events at all. By setting inputEnabled to true the Phaser.InputHandler is activated for this object and it will then start to process click/touch events and more. Set to true to allow this object to receive input events.
- Source - gameobjects/Rope.js, line 668

- string | Phaser.RenderTexture | Phaser.BitmapData | PIXI.Texture
- Source - gameobjects/Rope.js, line 68
-
mask :PIXI.Graphics
-
Sets a mask for the displayObject. A mask is an object that limits the visibility of an object to the shape of the mask applied to it. In PIXI a regular mask must be a PIXI.Graphics object. This allows for much faster masking in canvas as it utilises shape clipping. To remove a mask, set this property to null.
