bounds :Phaser.Rectangle

The Camera is bound to this Rectangle and cannot move outside of it. By default it is enabled and set to the size of the World. The Rectangle can be located anywhere in the world and updated as often as you like. If you don't wish the Camera to be bound at all then set this to null. The values can be anything and are in World coordinates, with 0,0 being the top-left of the world. The Rectangle in which the Camera is bounded. Set to null to allow for movement anywhere.

id :number

Reserved for future multiple camera set-ups.

Source - core/Camera.js, line 36

lerp :Phaser.Point

The linear interpolation value to use when following a target. The default values of 1 means the camera will instantly snap to the target coordinates. A lower value, such as 0.1 means the camera will more slowly track the target, giving a smooth transition. You can set the horizontal and vertical values independently, and also adjust this value in real-time during your game.

Source - core/Camera.js, line 109

onFadeComplete :Phaser.Signal

This signal is dispatched when the camera fade effect completes. When the fade effect completes you will be left with the screen black (or whatever color you faded to). In order to reset this call Camera.resetFX. This is called automatically when you change State.

Source - core/Camera.js, line 657

fade(color, duration, force) → {boolean}

This creates a camera fade effect. It works by filling the game with the color specified, over the duration given, ending with a solid fill.

You can use this for things such as transitioning to a new scene.

The game will be left 'filled' at the end of this effect, likely obscuring everything. In order to reset it you can call Camera.resetFX and it will clear the fade. Or you can call Camera.flash with the same color as the fade, and it will reverse the process, bringing the game back into view again.

When the effect ends the signal Camera.onFadeComplete is dispatched.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Default	Description
color	numer	<optional>	0x000000	The color the game will fade to. I.e. 0x000000 for black, 0xff0000 for red, etc.
duration	number	<optional>	500	The duration of the fade in milliseconds.
force	boolean	<optional>	false	If a camera flash or fade effect is already running and force is true it will replace the previous effect, resetting the duration.

Returns:

boolean -

True if the effect was started, otherwise false.

Source - core/Camera.js, line 441

flash(color, duration, force) → {boolean}

This creates a camera flash effect. It works by filling the game with the solid fill color specified, and then fading it away to alpha 0 over the duration given.

You can use this for things such as hit feedback effects.

When the effect ends the signal Camera.onFlashComplete is dispatched.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Default	Description
color	numer	<optional>	0xffffff	The color of the flash effect. I.e. 0xffffff for white, 0xff0000 for red, etc.
duration	number	<optional>	500	The duration of the flash effect in milliseconds.
force	boolean	<optional>	false	If a camera flash or fade effect is already running and force is true it will replace the previous effect, resetting the duration.

Returns:

boolean -

True if the effect was started, otherwise false.

Source - core/Camera.js, line 401

focusOn(displayObject)

Move the camera focus on a display object instantly.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
displayObject	any	The display object to focus the camera on. Must have visible x/y properties.

Source - core/Camera.js, line 335

focusOnXY(x, y)

Move the camera focus on a location instantly.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
x	number	X position.
y	number	Y position.

Source - core/Camera.js, line 346

follow(target, style, lerpX, lerpY)

Tell the camera which sprite to follow.

You can set the follow type and a linear interpolation value. Use low lerp values (such as 0.1) to automatically smooth the camera motion.

If you find you're getting a slight "jitter" effect when following a Sprite it's probably to do with sub-pixel rendering of the Sprite position. This can be disabled by setting game.renderer.renderSession.roundPixels = true to force full pixel rendering.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Default	Description
target	Phaser.Sprite | Phaser.Image | Phaser.Text			The object you want the camera to track. Set to null to not follow anything.
style	number	<optional>		Leverage one of the existing "deadzone" presets. If you use a custom deadzone, ignore this parameter and manually specify the deadzone after calling follow().
lerpX	float	<optional>	1	A value between 0 and 1. This value specifies the amount of linear interpolation to use when horizontally tracking the target. The closer the value to 1, the faster the camera will track.
lerpY	float	<optional>	1	A value between 0 and 1. This value specifies the amount of linear interpolation to use when vertically tracking the target. The closer the value to 1, the faster the camera will track.

Source - core/Camera.js, line 269

preUpdate()

Camera preUpdate. Sets the total view counter to zero.

Source - core/Camera.js, line 258

reset()

Resets the camera back to 0,0 and un-follows any object it may have been tracking. Also immediately resets any camera effects that may have been running such as shake, flash or fade.

Source - core/Camera.js, line 759

resetFX()

Resets any active FX, such as a fade or flash and immediately clears it. Useful to calling after a fade in order to remove the fade from the Stage.

Source - core/Camera.js, line 745

shake(intensity, duration, force, direction, shakeBounds) → {boolean}

This creates a camera shake effect. It works by applying a random amount of additional spacing on the x and y axis each frame. You can control the intensity and duration of the effect, and if it should effect both axis or just one.

When the shake effect ends the signal Camera.onShakeComplete is dispatched.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Default	Description
intensity	float	<optional>	0.05	The intensity of the camera shake. Given as a percentage of the camera size representing the maximum distance that the camera can move while shaking.
duration	number	<optional>	500	The duration of the shake effect in milliseconds.
force	boolean	<optional>	true	If a camera shake effect is already running and force is true it will replace the previous effect, resetting the duration.
direction	number	<optional>	Phaser.Camera.SHAKE_BOTH	The directions in which the camera can shake. Either Phaser.Camera.SHAKE_BOTH, Phaser.Camera.SHAKE_HORIZONTAL or Phaser.Camera.SHAKE_VERTICAL.
shakeBounds	boolean	<optional>	true	Is the effect allowed to shake the camera beyond its bounds (if set?).

Returns:

boolean -

True if the shake effect was started, otherwise false.
