phaser/changelog/3.80/CHANGELOG-v3.80.md

Version 3.80.0 - Nino - in dev

New Features

• The Scale Manager has a new scale mode called EXPAND. This is inspired by the Expand mode in Godot: "Keep aspect ratio when stretching the screen, but keep neither the base width nor height. Depending on the screen aspect ratio, the viewport will either be larger in the horizontal direction (if the screen is wider than the base size) or in the vertical direction (if the screen is taller than the original size)" (thanks @rexrainbow)

Updates

• The TweenChainBuilder was incorrectly setting the persist flag on the Chain to true, which goes against what the documentation says. It now correctly sets it to false. This means if you previously had a Tween Chain that was persisting, it will no longer do so, so add the property to regain the feature.
• The dropped argument has now been adeded to the documentation for the DRAG_END and GAMEOBJECT_DRAG_END events (thanks @samme)
• Container.onChildDestroyed is a new internal method used to destroy Container children. Previously, if you destroyed a Game Object in an exclusive Container, the game object would (momentarily) move onto the Scene display list and emit an ADDED_TO_SCENE event. Also, if you added a Sprite to a non-exclusive Container and stopped the Scene, you would get a TypeError (evaluating 'this.anims.destroy'). This happened because the fromChild argument in the DESTROY event was misinterpreted as destroyChild in the Container's remove(), and the Container was calling the Sprite's destroy() again. (thanks @samme)

Bug Fixes

• The InputManager.onTouchMove function has been fixed so it now correctly handles touch events on pages that have scrolled horizontally or vertically and shifted the viewport. Fix #6489 (thanks @somechris @hyewonjo)
