Change Log

Version 3.3.0 - Tetsuo - In Development

New Features

• TextStyle has two new properties: baselineX and baselineY which allow you to customize the 'magic' value used in calculating the text metrics.
• Game.Config.preserveDrawingBuffer is now passed to the WebGL Renderer (default false).
• Game.Config.failIfMajorPerformanceCaveat is now passed to the WebGL Renderer (default false).
• Game.Config.powerPreference is now passed to the WebGL Renderer (default default).
• Game.Config.antialias is now passed to the WebGL Renderer as the antialias context property (default true).
• Game.Config.pixelArt is now only used by the WebGL Renderer when creating new textures.
• Game.Config.premultipliedAlpha is now passed to the WebGL Renderer as the premultipliedAlpha context property (default true).
• You can now specify all of the renderer config options within a render object in the config. If no render object is found, it will scan the config object directly for the properties.
• Group.create has a new optional argument: active which will set the active state of the child being created (thanks @samme)
• Group.create has a new optional argument: active which will set the active state of the child being created (thanks @samme)
• Group.createMultiple now allows you to include the active property in the config object (thanks @samme)
• TileSprite has a new method: setTilePosition which allows you to set the tile position in a chained called (thanks @samme)
• Added the new Action - WrapInRectangle. This will wrap each items coordinates within a rectangles area (thanks @samme)
• Arcade Physics has the new methods wrap, wrapArray and wrapObject which allow you to wrap physics bodies around the world bounds (thanks @samme)
• The Tweens Timeline has a new method: makeActive which delegates control to the Tween Manager (thanks @allanbreyes)
• Actions.GetLast will return the last element in the items array matching the conditions.
• Actions.PropertyValueInc is a new action that will increment any property of an array of objects by the given amount, using an optional step value, index and iteration direction. Most Actions have been updated to use this internally.
• Actions.PropertyValueSet is a new action that will set any property of an array of objects to the given value, using an optional step value, index and iteration direction. Most Actions have been updated to use this internally.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed the Debug draw of a scaled circle body in Arcade Physics (thanks @pixelpicosean)
• Fixed bug in DataManager.merge where it would copy the object reference instead of its value (thanks @rexrainbow)
• The SceneManager no longer copies over the shutdown and destroy callbacks in createSceneFromObject, as these are not called automatically and should be invoked via the Scene events (thanks @samme)
• The default Gamepad Button threshold has been changed from 0 to 1. Previously the value of 0 was making all gamepad buttons appear as if they were always pressed down (thanks @jmcriat)
• InputManager.hitTest will now factor the game resolution into account, stopping the tests from being offset if resolution didn't equal 1 (thanks @sftsk)
• CameraManager.getCamera now returns the Camera based on its name (thanks @bigbozo)
• Fixed Tile Culling for zoomed Cameras. When a Camera was zoomed the tiles would be aggressively culled as the dimensions didn't factor in the zoom level (thanks @bigbozo)
• When calling ScenePlugin.start any additional data passed to the method would be lost if the scene wasn't in an active running state (thanks @stuff)
• When calling Timeline.resetTweens, while the tweens are pending removal or completed, it would throw a TypeError about the undefined makeActive (thanks @allanbreyes)
• The WebGL Context would set antialias to undefined as it wasn't set in the Game Config. Fix #3386 (thanks @samme)
• The TweenManager will now check the state of a tween before playing it. If not in a pending state it will be skipped. This allows you to stop a tween immediately after creating it and not have it play through once anyway. Fix #3405 (thanks @Twilrom)
• The InputPlugin.processOverOutEvents method wasn't correctly working out the total of the number of objects interacted with, which caused input events to be disabled in Scenes further down the scene list if something was being dragged in an upper scene. Fix #3399 (thanks @Jerenaux)
• The InputPlugin.processDragEvents wasn't always returning an integer.
• LoaderPlugin.progress and the corresponding event now factor in both the list size and the inflight size when calculating the percentage complete. Fix #3384 (thanks @vinerz @rblopes @samme)
• Phaser.Utils.Array.Matrix.RotateLeft actually rotated to the right (thanks @Tomas2h)
• Phaser.Utils.Array.Matrix.RotateRight actually rotated to the left (thanks @Tomas2h)
• When deleting a Scene from the SceneManager it would set the key in the scenes has to undefined, preventing you from registering a new Scene with the same key. It's now properly removed from the hash(thanks @macbury)

Updates

• The Text testString has changed from |MÉqgy to |MÉqgy.
• The WebGLRenderer width and height values are now floored when multiplied by the resolution.
• The WebGL Context now sets premultipliedAlpha to true by default, this prevents the WebGL context from rendering as plain white under certain versions of macOS Safari.
• The Phaser.Display.Align constants are now exposed on the namespace. Fix #3387 (thanks @samme)
• The Phaser.Loader constants are now exposed on the namespace. Fix #3387 (thanks @samme)

Version 3.2.1 - 12th March 2018

Bug Fixes

• Fixed issue with Render Texture tinting. Fix #3336 (thanks @rexrainbow)
• Fixed Utils.String.Format (thanks @samme)
• The Matter Debug Layer wouldn't clear itself in canvas mode. Fix #3345 (thanks @samid737)
• TimerEvent.remove would dispatch the Timer event immediately based on the opposite of the method argument, making it behave the opposite of what was expected. It now only fires when requested (thanks @migiyubi)
• The TileSprite Canvas Renderer did not support rotation, scaling or flipping. Fix #3231 (thanks @TCatshoek)
• Fixed Group doesn't remove children from Scene when cleared with the removeFromScene argument set (thanks @iamchristopher)
• Fixed an error in the lights pipeline when no Light Manager has been defined (thanks @samme)
• The ForwardDiffuseLightPipeline now uses sys.lights instead of the Scene variable to avoid errors due to injection removal.
• Phaser.Display.Color.Interpolate would return NaN values because it was loading the wrong Linear function. Fix #3372 (thanks @samid737)
• RenderTexture.draw was only drawing the base frame of a Texture. Fix #3374 (thanks @samid737)
• TileSprite scaling differed between WebGL and Canvas. Fix #3338 (thanks @TCatshoek)
• Text.setFixedSize was incorrectly setting the text property instead of the parent property. Fix #3375 (thanks @rexrainbow)
• RenderTexture.clear on canvas was using the last transform state, instead of clearing the whole texture.

Updates

• The SceneManager.render will now render a Scene as long as it's in a LOADING state or higher. Before it would only render RUNNING scenes, but this precluded those that were loading assets.
• A Scene can now be restarted by calling scene.start() and providing no arguments (thanks @migiyubi)
• The class GameObject has now been exposed, available via Phaser.GameObjects.GameObject (thanks @rexrainbow)
• A Camera following a Game Object will now take the zoom factor of the camera into consideration when scrolling. Fix #3353 (thanks @brandonvdongen)
• Calling setText on a BitmapText object will now recalculate its display origin values. Fix #3350 (thanks @migiyubi)
• You can now pass an object to Loader.atlas, like you you can with images. Fix #3268 (thanks @TCatshoek)
• The onContextRestored callback won't be defined any more unless the WebGL Renderer is in use in the following objects: BitmapMask, Static Tilemap, TileSprite and Text. This should allow those objects to now work in HEADLESS mode. Fix #3368 (thanks @16patsle)
• The SetFrame method now has two optional arguments: updateSize and updateOrigin (both true by default) which will update the size and origin of the Game Object respectively. Fix #3339 (thanks @Jerenaux)

Version 3.2.0 - Kaori - 5th March 2018

New Features

• The new Render Texture Game Object is now available. You can clear, fill and draw texture frames to it. The Render Texture itself can be displayed in-game with its own transform, or you can use it as a Bitmap Mask for another Game Object.
• Game.resize allows you to resize the game config, renderer and input system in one call.
• When Game.resize is called it causes all Scene.Systems to have their resize method called. This is turn emits a resize event which your Scene can respond to. It will be sent the new width and height of the canvas as the only two parameters.
• InputManager.resize allows you to update the bounds def and input scale in one call.
• Game.Config.roundPixels property added to prevent sub-pixel interpolation during rendering of Game Objects in WebGL and Canvas.
• Load.plugin now accepts a class as an argument as well as a URL string (thanks @nkholski)
• Tween.complete will allow you to flag a tween as being complete, no matter what stage it is at. If an onComplete callback has been defined it will be invoked. You can set an optional delay before this happens (thanks @Jerenaux for the idea)
• The Headless render mode has been implemented. You can now set HEADLESS as the renderType in the Game Config and it will run a special game step that skips rendering. It will still create a Canvas element, as lots of internal systems (like input) rely on it, but it will not draw anything to it. Fix #3256 (thanks @rgk)
• GameObject.setInteractive has a new boolean argument dropZone which will allow you to set the object as being a drop zone right from the method.
• Sprites can now be drop zones and have other Game Objects dragged onto them as targets.
• The SceneManager has a new method: remove which allows you to remove and destroy a Scene, freeing up the Scene key for use by future scenes and potentially clearing the Scene from active memory for gc.
• SceneManager.moveAbove will move a Scene to be directly above another Scene in the Scenes list. This is also exposed in the ScenePlugin.
• SceneManager.moveBelow will move a Scene to be directly below another Scene in the Scenes list. This is also exposed in the ScenePlugin.
• Quadratic Bezier Interpolation has been added to the Math.Interpolation functions (thanks @RiCoTeRoX)
• A new Quadratic Bezier Curve class has been added, expanding the available Curve types (thanks @RiCoTeRoX)
• Path.quadraticBezierTo allows you to add a Quadratic Bezier Curve into your Path.
• Loader.multiatlas now supports Texture Packers new JSON atlas format which exports one combined atlas for all image files. This is available if you use the new Phaser 3 Export from within Texture Packer (thanks @CodeAndWeb)
• Modified WebGLPipeline to make it easier to extend and easier to create custom rendering passes.

Bug Fixes

• Arcade Physics Bodies didn't apply the results of allowRotation to the parent Game Object.
• InputManager.updateBounds wouldn't correctly get the bounds of the canvas if it had horizontal or vertical translation in the page, causing the scale factor to be off (and subsequently input values to mis-fire)
• TileSprite.setFrame now works and allows you to change the frame to any other in the texture. Fix #3232 (thanks @Jerenaux)
• Swapped the queue loop in the SceneManager to to use _queue.length rather than a cached length (thanks @srobertson421)
• When calling ScenePlugin.launch the data argument is now passed to the queued scenes (thanks @gaudeon)
• Rectangle.top wouldn't reset the y position if the value given never exceed the Rectangles bottom. Fix #3290 (thanks @chancezeus)
• The implementation of topOnly within the Input Manager had broken the way drop zones worked, as they were now filtered out of the display list before processing. Drop zones are now treated on their own in the Input Plugin meaning you can still have topOnly set and still drop an item into a drop zone. This indirectly fixed #3291 (thanks @rexrainbow)
• InputPlugin.clear now properly removes a Game Object from all internal arrays, not just the _list.
• InputPlugin.processOverOut no longer considers an item as being 'out' if it's in the internal _drag array.
• When a Game Object is scaled, its Arcade Physics body was still calculating its position based on its original size instead of scaled one (thanks @pixelpicosean)
• The RandomDataGenerator classes randomness has been improved thanks to the correct caching of a class property. Fix #3289 (thanks @migiyubi)
• The RandomDataGenerator sign property had a method collision. Fix #3323 (thanks @vinerz and @samme)
• In Arcade Physics World if you collided a group with itself it would call a missing method (collideGroupVsSelf), it now calls collideGroupVsGroup correctly (thanks @patrickgalbraith)
• The HTML5 Sound Manager would unlock the Sound API on a touch event but only if the audio files were loaded in the first Scene, if they were loaded in a subsequent Scene the audio system would never unlock. It now unlocks only if there are audio files in the cache. Fix #3311 (thanks @chancezeus)
• The Text.lineSpacing value was not taken into account when rendering the Text. Fix #3215 (thanks @sftsk)
• InputPlugin.update now takes the totals from the drag and pointerup events into consideration when deciding to fall through to the Scene below. Fix #3333 (thanks @chancezeus)

Updates

• AnimationComponent.play now calls setSizeToFrame() and updateDisplayOrigin() on the parent Game Object in order to catch situations where you've started playing an animation on a Game Object that uses a different size to the previously set frame.
• Text.setText will check if the value given is falsey but not a zero and set to an empty string if so.
• BitmapText.setText will check if the value given is falsey but not a zero and set to an empty string if so.
• BitmapText.setText will now cast the given value to a string before setting.
• BitmapText.setText will not change the text via setText unless the new text is different to the old one.
• If you set transparent in the Game Config but didn't provide a backgroundColor then it would render as black. It will now be properly transparent. If you do provide a color value then it must include an alpha component.
• You can now pass normal Groups to Arcade Physics collide / overlap, as well as Physics Groups. Fix #3277 (thanks @nkholski)
• Texture.get has been optimized to fail first, then error, with a new falsey check. This allows you to skip out specifying animation frames in the animation config without generating a console warning.
• The setFrame method of the Texture component has been updated so that it will now automatically reset the width and height of a Game Object to match that of the new Frame. Related, it will also adjust the display origin values, because they are size based. If the Frame has a custom pivot it will set the origin to match the custom pivot instead.
• ScenePlugin.swapPosition now allows you to use it to swap the positions of any two Scenes. Before the change it only allowed you to swap the position of the calling Scene and another one, but a new optional keyB argument opens this up.
• The SceneManager no longer renders a Scene unless it is visible AND either running or paused. This now skips Scenes that are in an init state.
• The Keyboard Manager will now no longer emit keydown events if you keep holding a key down. Fix #3239 (thanks @squaresun)
• The SceneManager now employs a new queue for all pending Scenes, creating them and booting them in strict sequence. This should prevent errors where Scenes were unable to reference other Scenes further down the boot list in their create functions. Fix #3314 (thanks @max1701 @rblopes)
• Game.preBoot and Game.postBoot callbacks now pass an instance of the game to the callback (thanks @rblopes)
• Graphics.arc in WebGL mode now works more like arc does in Canvas (thanks @Twilrom)
• GameObjects now emit a 'destroy' event when they are destroyed, which you can use to perform any additional processing you require. Fix #3251 (thanks @rexrainbow)
• If an HTML5AudioSound sound fails to play it will now issue a console.warn (thanks @samme)
• Phaser is now running Travis CI build testing again (thanks @vpmedia)
• Documentation updates: thanks to @melissaelopez @samme @jblang94

Version 3.1.2 - 23rd February 2018

Updates

• Hundreds of JSDoc fixes across the whole API.
• Tween.updateTweenData will now check to see if the Tween target still exists before trying to update its properties.
• If you try to use a local data URI in the Loader it now console warns instead of logs (thanks @samme)

Bug Fixes

• The KeyCode FORWAD_SLASH had a typo and has been changed to FORWARD_SLASH. Fix #3271 (thanks @josedarioxyz)
• Fixed issue with vertex buffer creation on Static Tilemap Layer, causing tilemap layers to appear black. Fix #3266 (thanks @akleemans)
• Implemented Static Tilemap Layer scaling and Tile alpha support.
• Fixed issue with null texture on Particle Emitter batch generation. This would manifest if you had particles with blend modes on-top of other images not appearing.
• Added missing data parameter to ScenePlugin. Fixes #3810 (thanks @AleBles)

Version 3.1.1 - 20th February 2018

Updates

• The entire codebase now passes our eslint config (which helped highlight a few errors), if you're submitting a PR, please ensure your PR passes the config too.
• The Web Audio Context is now suspended instead of closed to allow for prevention of 'Failed to construct AudioContext: maximum number of hardware contexts reached' errors from Chrome in a hot reload environment. We still strongly recommend reusing the same context in a production environment. See this example for details. Fixes #3238 (thanks @z0y1 @Ziao)
• The Webpack shell plugin now fires on onBuildExit, meaning it'll update the examples if you use webpack watch (thanks @rblopes)
• Added root: true flag to the eslint config to stop it scanning further-up the filesystem.

Bug Fixes

• Math.Fuzzy.Floor had an incorrect method signature.
• Arcade Physics World didn't import GetOverlapX or GetOverlapY, causing separateCircle to break.
• TileSprite was missing a gl reference, causing it to fail during a context loss and restore.
• The Mesh Game Object Factory entry had incorrect arguments passed to Mesh constructor.
• Removed unused _queue property from ScenePlugin class (thanks @rblopes)
• The variable static is no longer used in Arcade Physics, fixing the 'static is a reserved word' in strict mode error (thanks @samme)
• Fixed Set.union, Set.intersect and Set.difference (thanks @yupaul)
• The corner tints were being applied in the wrong order. Fixes #3252 (thanks @Rybar)
• BitmapText objects would ignore calls to setOrigin. Fixes #3249 (thanks @amkazan)
• Fixed a 1px camera jitter and bleeding issue in the renderer. Fixes #3245 (thanks @bradharms)
• Fixed the error WebGL: INVALID_ENUM: blendEquation: invalid mode. that would arise on iOS. Fixes #3244 (thanks @Ziao)
• The drawBlitter function would crash if roundPixels was true. Fixes #3243 (thanks @Jerenaux and @vulcanoidlogic)

Version 3.1.0 - Onishi - 16th February 2018

Updates

• Vertex resource handling code updated, further optimizing the WebGL batching. You should now see less gl ops per frame across all batches.
• The Blitter game object has been updated to use the List structure instead of DisplayList.
• Arcade Physics World disableBody has been renamed disableGameObjectBody to more accurately reflect what it does.
• Lots of un-used properties were removed from the Arcade Physics Static Body object.
• Arcade Physics Static Body can now refresh itself from its parent via refreshBody.

Bug Fixes

• A couple of accidental uses of let existed, which broke Image loading in Safari # (thanks Yat Hin Wong)
• Added the static property Graphics.TargetCamera was added back in which fixed Graphics.generateTexture.
• The SetHitArea Action now calls setInteractive, fixing Group.createMultiple when a hitArea has been set.
• Removed rogue Tween emit calls. Fix #3222 (thanks @ZaDarkSide)
• Fixed incorrect call to TweenManager.makeActive. Fix #3219 (thanks @ZaDarkSide)
• The Depth component was missing from the Zone Game Object. Fix #3213 (thanks @Twilrom)
• Fixed issue with Blitter overwriting previous objects vertex data.
• The Tile game object tinting was fixed, so tiles now honor alpha values correctly.
• The BitmapMask would sometimes incorrectly bind its resources.
• Fixed the wrong Extend target in MergeXHRSettings (thanks @samme)

New Features

• Destroying a Game Object will now call destroy on its physics body, if it has one set.
• Arcade Physics Colliders have a new name property and corresponding setName method.
• Matter.js bodies now have an inlined destroy method that removes them from the World.
• Impact bodies now remove themselves from the World when destroyed.
• Added Vector2.ZERO static property.
