Change Log

Version 2.3.0 - "Tarabon" - 26th March 2015

Significant Updates

Game Objects and Components

All of the core Game Objects have received an important internal restructuring. We have moved all of the common functions to a new set of Component classes. They cover functionality such as 'Crop', 'Physics Body', 'InCamera' and more. You can find the source code to each component in the src/gameobjects/components folder of the repo.

All of the Game Object classes have been restructured to use the new component approach. This puts an end to the "God classes" structure we had before and removes literally hundreds of lines of duplicate code. It also allowed us to add features to Game Objects; for example Bitmap Text objects are now full-class citizens with regard to physics capabilities.

Although this was a big internal shift from an API point of view not much changed - you still access the same methods and properties in the same way as before. Phaser is just a lot leaner under the hood now.

It's worth mentioning that from a JavaScript perspective components are mixins applied to the core game objects when Phaser is instantiated. They are not added at run-time or are dynamic (they never get removed from an object once added for example). Please understand that this is by design.

You can create your own custom Phaser classes, with your own set of active components by copying any of the pre-existing Game Objects and modifying them.

Custom Builds

As a result of the shift to components we went through the entire source base and optimised everything we could. Redundant paths were removed, debug flags removed and new stub classes and hooks were created. What this means is that it's now easier than ever to "disable" parts of Phaser and build your own custom version.

We have always included a couple of extra custom builds with Phaser. For example a build without P2 Physics included. But now you can strip out lots of additional features you may not require, saving hundreds of KB from your build file in the process. Don't use any Sound in your game? Then you can now exclude the entire sound system. Don't need Keyboard support? That can be stripped out too.

As a result of this work the minimum build size of Phaser is now just 83KB (minified and gzipped).

Please see the README instructions on how to create custom builds.

Arcade Physics

We've updated the core of Arcade Physics in a number of significant ways.

First we've dropped lots of internal private vars and moved to using non-cached local vars. Array lengths are no longer cached and we've implemented physicsType properties on Game Objects to speed-up the core World collideHandler. All of these small changes have lead to a nice improvement in speed as a result, and also allows us to now offer things like physics enabled BitmapText objects.

More importantly we're now using a spacial pre-sort for all Sprite vs. Group and Group vs. Group collisions. You can define the direction the sort will prioritize via the new sortDirection property. By default it is set to Phaser.Physics.Arcade.LEFT_RIGHT. For example if you are making a horizontally scrolling game, where the player starts on the left of the world and moves to the right, then this sort order will allow the physics system to quickly eliminate any objects to the right of the player bounds. This cuts down on the sheer volume of actual collision checks needing to be made. In a densely populated level it can improve the fps rate dramatically.

There are 3 other directions available (RIGHT_LEFT, TOP_BOTTOM and BOTTOM_TOP) and which one you need will depend on your game type. If you were making a vertically scrolling shoot-em-up then you'd pick BOTTOM_TOP so it sorts all objects above and can bail out quickly. There is also SORT_NONE if you would like to pre-sort the Groups yourself or disable this feature.

Another handy feature is that you can switch the sortDirection at run-time with no loss of performance. Just make sure you do it before running any collision checks. So if you had a large 8-way scrolling world you could set the sortDirection to match the direction the player was moving in and adjust it in real-time, getting the benefits as you go. My thanks to Aaron Lahman for inspiring this update.

Phaser.Loader

The Phaser.Loader has been updated to support parallel downloads which is now enabled by default (you can toggle it via the Loader.enableParallel flag) as well as adding future extensibility points with a pack/file unified filelist and an inflight queue.

There are no known incompatibilities with the previous Loader. Be aware that with parallel downloading enabled the order of the Loader events may vary (as can be seen in the "Load Events" example).

The parallel file concurrency limit is available in Loader.maxParallelDownloads and is set to 4 by default. Under simulated slower network connections parallel loading was a good bit faster than sequential loading. Even under a direct localhost connection parallel loading was never slower, but benefited most when loading many small assets (large assets are more limited by bandwidth); both results are fairly expected.

The Loader now supports synchronization points. An asset marked as a synchronization point must be loaded (or fail to load) before any subsequent assets can be loaded. This is enabled by using the withSyncPoint and addSyncPoint methods. Packs ('packfile' files) and Scripts ('script' files) are treated as synchronization points by default. This allows parallel downloads in general while allowing synchronization of select resources if required (packs, and potentially other assets in the future, can load-around synchronization points if they are written to delay final 'loading').

Additional error handling / guards have been added, and the reported error message has been made more consistent. Invalid XML (when loading) no longer throws an exception but fails the particular file/asset that was being loaded.

Some public methods/properties have been marked as protected, but no (except in case of a should-have-been-private-method) public-facing interfaces have been removed. Some private methods have been renamed and/or removed.

A new XHR object is created for each relevant asset (as there must be a different XHR for each asset loaded in parallel). Online searches indicated that there was no relevant benefit of XHR (as a particular use-case) re-use; and time will be dominated with the resource fetch. With the new flight queue an XHR cache could be re-added, at the cost of some complexity.

The URL is always transformed through transformUrl, which can make adding some one-off special cases like #1355 easier to deal with.

This also incorporates the fast-cache path for Images tags that can greatly speed up the responsiveness of image loading.

Loader.resetLocked is a boolean that allows you to control what happens when the loader is reset, which happens automatically on a State change. If you set resetLocked to true it allows you to populate the loader queue in one State, then swap to another State without having the queue erased, and start the load going from there. After the load has completed you could then disable the lock again as needed.

Thanks to @pnstickne for vast majority of this update.

Pixi v2

We are now using our own custom build of Pixi v2. The Pixi project has moved all development resources over to Pixi v3, but it wasn't ready in time for the release of Phaser 2.3 so we've started applying our own fixes to the version of Pixi that Phaser uses.

As a result we have removed all files from the src/pixi folder that Phaser doesn't use, in order to make this distinction clearer. This includes EventTarget, so if you were relying on that in your game you'll need to add it back in to your local build.

We've also removed functions and properties from Pixi classes that Phaser doesn't require: such as the Interaction Manager, Stage.dirty, etc. This has helped us cut down the source code size and make the docs less confusing, as they no longer show properties for things that weren't even enabled.

We've rolled our own fixes into our version of Pixi, ensuring we keep it as bug-free as possible.

New Features

• Physics.Arcade.isPaused allows you to toggle Arcade Physics processing on and off. If true the Body.preUpdate method will be skipped, halting all motion for all bodies. Note that other methods such as collide will still work, so be careful not to call them on paused bodies.
• Arcade.Body.friction allows you to have more fine-grained control over the amount of velocity passed between bodies on collision.
• BitmapData.text will render the given string to the BitmapData, with optional font, color and shadow settings.
• MSPointer.capture allows you to optionally event.preventDefault the pointer events (was previously always on)
• MSPointer.event now stores the most recent pointer event.
• MSPointer.pointerDownCallback, pointerMoveCallback and pointerUpCallback all allow you to set your own event based callbacks.
• MSPointer.button now records which button was pressed down (if any)
• Phaser now supports rotated and flipped tiles in tilemaps, as exported from the Tiled map editor (thanks @nkholski #1608)
• TilemapParser now supports Tiled 0.11 version maps which includes the rotation property on all Object types.
• Tilemap.createFromObjects now checks for a rotation property on the Object and if present will set it as the Sprite.angle (#1433)
• If for whatever reason you wish to hide the Phaser banner in the console.log you can set window.PhaserGlobal.hideBanner to true and it will skip the output. Honestly I'd rather if you didn't, but the option is now there.
• TilemapLayer.setScale will allow you to apply scaling to a specific Tilemap layer, i.e. layer.setScale(2) would double the size of the layer. The way the Camera responds to the layer is adjusted accordingly based on the scale, as is Arcade collision (thanks @mickez #1605)
• SoundManager.setDecodedCallback lets you specify a list of Sound files, or keys, and a callback. Once all of the Sound files have finished decoding the callback will be invoked. The amount of time spent decoding depends on the codec used and file size. If all of the files given have already decoded the callback is triggered immediately.
• Sound.loopFull is a new method that will start playback of the Sound and set it to loop in its entirety.
• left, right, top and bottom are new properties that contain the totals of the Game Objects position and dimensions, adjusted for the anchor. These are available on any Game Object with the Bounds Component.
• Sprite.offsetX and Sprite.offsetY contain the offsets from the Sprite.x/y coordinates to the top-left of the Sprite, taking anchor into consideration.
• Emitter.flow now works in a slightly different (and more useful!) way. You can now specify a quantity and a total. The quantity controls how many particles are emitted every time the flow frequency is met. The total controls how many particles will be emitted in total. You can set total to be -1 and it will carry on emitting at the given frequency forever (also fixes #1598 thanks @brianbunch)
• ArraySet.removeAll allows you to remove all members of an ArraySet and optionally call destroy on them as well.
• GameObject.input.dragStartPoint now stores the coordinates the object was at when the drag started. This value is populated when the drag starts. It can be used to return an object to its pre-drag position, for example if it was dropped in an invalid place in-game.
• Text.padding specifies a padding value which is added to the line width and height when calculating the Text size. Allows you to add extra spacing if Phaser is unable to accurately determine the true font dimensions (#1561 #1518)
• P2 Capsule Shapes now support BodyDebug drawing (thanks @englercj #1686)
• Game Objects now have a new physicsType property. This maps to a Phaser const such as SPRITE or GROUP and allows Phaser to sort out pairings for collision checks in the core World collide handler much quicker than before.
• BitmapText objects can now have physics enabled on them. When the physics body is first created it will use the dimensions of the BitmapText at the time you enable it. If you update the text it will adjust the body width and height as well, however any applied offset will be retained.
• BitmapText objects now have an anchor property. This works in a similar way to Sprite.anchor except that it offsets the position of each letter of the BitmapText by the given amount, based on the overall BitmapText width - whereas Sprite.anchor offsets the position the texture is drawn at.

Updates

• TypeScript definitions fixes and updates (thanks @Phaiax @Bilge @clark-stevenson @TimvdEijnden @belohlavek @ivw @vulvulune @zeh @englercj)
• There is a new TypeScript defs file (phaser.comments.d.ts) which now has all of the jsdocs included! (thanks @vulvulune #1559)
• Sound.fadeTween is now used for Sound.fadeIn and Sound.fadeOut audio tweens.
• Sound.stop and Sound.destroy now halt a fade tween if in effect.
• Arcade Physics computeVelocity now allows a max velocity of 0 allowing movement to be constrained to a single axis (thanks @zekoff #1594)
• Added missing properties to the InputHandler prototype, reducing hidden class modifications.
• Updated docstrap-master toc.js to fix nav scrolling (thanks @abderrahmane-tj @vulvulune #1589)
• Added missing plugins member in Phaser.Game class (thanks @Bilge #1568)
• Lots of JSDocs fixes (thanks @vulvulune @micahjohnston @Marchys @JesseAldridge)
• TilemapLayer.getTiles now returns a copy of the Tiles found by the method, rather than references to the original Tile objects, so you're free to modify them without corrupting the source (thanks @Leekao #1585)
• Sprite.events.onDragStart has 2 new parameters x and y which is the position of the Sprite before the drag was started. The full list of parameters is: (sprite, pointer, x, y). This allows you to retain the position of the Sprite prior to dragging should dragFromCenter have been enabled (thanks @vulvulune #1583)
• Body.reset now resets the Body.speed value to zero.
• Device.touch checks if window.navigator.maxTouchPoints is >= 1 rather than > 1, which allows touch events to work properly in Chrome mobile emulation.
• Loader.XDomainRequest wasn't used for atlas json loading. It has now been moved to the xhrLoad method to ensure it's used for all request if required (thanks @draconisNoctis #1601)
• Loader.reset has a new optional 2nd parameter clearEvents which if set to true (the default is false) will reset all event listeners bound to the Loader.
• If Body.customSeparateX or customSeparateY is true then the Body will no longer be automatically separated from a Tilemap collision or exchange any velocity. The amount of pixels that the Body has intersected the tile is available in Body.overlapX and overlapY, so you can use these values to perform your own separation in your collision callback (#992)
• TilemapParser will now set the .type property for ObjectLayer Objects (thanks @mikaturunen #1609)
• The Loader now directly calls StateManager.loadComplete rather than the StateManager listening for the loadComplete event, because Loader.reset unbinds this event (and it's easy to accidentally remove it too)
• Loader.onLoadComplete is dispatched before the Loader is reset. If you have a create method in your State please note that the Loader will have been reset before this method is called. This allows you to immediately re-use the Loader without having to first reset it manually.
• World.setBounds will now adjust the World.x/y values to match those given (#1555)
• ArcadePhysics.distanceToPointer now calculates the distance in world space values.
• Sound.fadeIn now supports fading from a marker, as well as the entire audio clip, so now works with audio sprites (thanks @vorrin #1413)
• Text font components can now be specified as part of "style". There is a breaking change in that the fontWeight now only handles the CSS font-weight component. The fontStyle property handles 'italic', 'oblique', values from font-style. This makes the overall consistency cleaner but some code may need to be updated. This does not affect font-weight/font-style as with setStyle({font:..}). Also fixes overwrite font/size/weight oddities - which may result in different behavior for code that was relying on such. All of the text examples appear to work and modification using the new features (while respecting the change in previous behavior) work better (thanks @pnstickne #1375 #1370)
• Loader.audiosprite has a new jsonData parameter. It allows you to pass a pre-existing JSON object (or a string which will be parsed as JSON) to use as the audiosprite data, instead of specifying a URL to a JSON file on the server (thanks @jounii #1447)
• Loader.audiosprite has a new autoDecode parameter. If true the audio file will be decoded immediately upon load.
• Tile.properties is now unique to that specific Tile, and not a reference to the Tileset index bound properties object. Tile.properties can now be modified freely without impacting other tiles sharing the same id (#1254)
• PIXI.TextureSilentFail is a boolean that defaults to false. If true then PIXI.Texture.setFrame will no longer throw an error if the texture dimensions are incorrect. Instead Texture.valid will be set to false (#1556)
• InputHandler.enableDrag with a boundsRect set now takes into account the Sprites anchor when limiting the drag (thanks @unindented #1593)
• InputHandler.enableDrag with a boundsSprite set now takes into account both the Sprites anchor and the boundsSprite anchor when limiting the drag.
• Sound in Web Audio now uses AudioContext.onended to trigger when it will stop playing instead of using a time based value. This is only used if the sound doesn't loop and isn't an audio sprite, but will give a much more accurate Sound.onStop event. It also prevents short audio files from being cut off during playback (#1471) and accounts for time spent decoding.
• If you load an image and provide a key that was already in-use in the Cache, then the old image is now destroyed (via Cache.removeImage) and the new image takes its place.
• BitmapText has a new maxWidth property that will attempt to wrap the text if it exceeds the width specified.
• Group.cursorIndex is the index of the item the Group cursor points to. This replaces Group._cache[8].
• Tween.updateTweenData allows you to set a property to the given value across one or all of the current tweens. All of the Tween methods like Tween.delay and Tween.repeat have been updated to use this.
• Tween.repeat has a new parameter repeatDelay which allows you to set the delay (in ms) before a tween will repeat itself.
• Tween.yoyo has a new parameter yoyoDelay which allows you to set the delay (in ms) before a tween will start a yoyo.
• Tween.interpolation has a new parameter context which allows you to define the context in which the interpolation function will run.
• ArraySet.getByKey gets an item from the set based on the property strictly equaling the value given.
• A State swap now sets the Loader.reset hard parameter to true by default. This will null any Loader.preloadSprite that may have been set.
• You can now set a resolution property in your Game Configuration object. This will be read when the Pixi renderer instance is created and used to set the resolution within that (#1621)
• Text style has a new optional property: backgroundColor which is a Canvas fill style that is set behind all Text in the Text object. It allows you to set a background color without having to use an additional Graphics object.
• The Physics Manager now has a new reset method which will reset the active physics systems. This is called automatically on a State swap (thanks @englercj #1691)
• When a State is started and linked to Phaser it has a new property created on it: key, which is the string identifier used by the State.
• When the Game first boots it will now call window.focus(). This allows keyboard events to work properly in IE when the game is running inside an iframe. You can stop this from happening by setting window.PhaserGlobal.stopFocus = true (thanks @webholics #1681)
• When an Animation completes playback and isn't set to loop it would change the currentFrame property to be the first frame in the set after the onComplete callback had fired. This meant if you set a Sprite to a new frame within an Animation onComplete callback then your change would have been overwritten by the animation itself. This is now no longer the case.
• When an Emitter is destroyed via Emitter.destroy it now removes itself from the Phaser Particle Manager, freeing it up for garbage collection and stopping it from being processed.

Bug Fixes

• SoundManager.unlock checks for audio start support and falls back to noteOn if not found.
• Sprite.frame and AnimationManager.frame wouldn't return the correct index if a sprite sheet was being used unless it had first been set via the setter.
• Error in diffX and diffY calculation in Tilemap.paste (thanks @amelia410 #1446)
• Fixed issue in PIXI.canUseNewCanvasBlendModes which would create false positives in browsers that supported multiply in Canvas path/fill ops, but not for drawImage (Samsung S5 for example). Now uses more accurate magenta / yellow mix test.
• Fixed FrameData.getFrame index out of bound error (thanks @jromer94 #1581 #1547)
• In P2.Body calling adjust mass would desync the debug graphics from the real position of the body (thanks @tomlarkworthy #1549)
• Fix CORS loading of BitmapFonts with IE9 (thanks @jeppester #1565)
• TileSprites were not detecting Pointer up events correctly because of a branching condition (thanks @integricho #1580 #1551)
• TileSprites weren't destroying WebGL textures, leading to eventual out of memory errors (thanks @chacal #1563)
• P2.Body.clearCollision default values were incorrectly set to false if no parameters were provided, even though the docs said they were true (thanks @brianbunch #1597)
• BitmapText.font wouldn't update an internal Pixi property (fontName) causing the text to fail to change font (thanks @starnut #1602)
• Fixed issue in PIXI.Text where it was using the wrong string for descender text measurements.
• Sprite.loadTexture and Image.loadTexture now no longer call updateTexture if the texture given is a RenderTexture. This fixes issues with RetroFonts in IE11 WebGL as well as other RenderTexture related IE11 problems (#1310 #1381 #1523)
• You can now tint animated Sprites in Canvas mode. Or change the texture atlas frame of a tinted Sprite or Image. Please note that this is pretty expensive (depending in the browser), as the tint is re-applied every time the frame changes. The Pixi tint cache has also been removed to allow for subtle tint color shifts and to avoid blowing up memory. So use this feature sparingly! But at least it does now work (#1070)
• ArcadePhysics.moveToPointer no longer goes crazy if the maxTime parameter is given and the Sprite is positioned in a larger game world (thanks @AnderbergE #1472)
• Sound.loop even when set for WebAudio wouldn't use the AudioContext loop property because Sound.start was being invoked with an offset and duration. Now if loop is true and no marker is being used it will use the native Web Audio loop support (#1431)
• Timer.update was calling the TimerEvent callback even if TimerEvent.pendingDelete was already set to true, causing timer events to stack-up in cases where a new TimerEvent was generated in the callback (thanks @clowerweb #838)
• Pointer.stop would call event.preventDefault if Pointer._stateReset was true, which is always true after a State has changed and before Pointer.start has been called. However this broken interacting with DOM elements in the case where the State changes and you immediately try to use the DOM element without first having clicked on the Phaser game. An additional guard was added so preventDefault will now only be called if both _stateReste and Pointer.withinGame are true (thanks @satan6 #1509)
• Group.forEach (and many other Group methods) now uses the children.length value directly instead of caching it, which both helps performance and stops the loop from breaking should you remove a Group child in the invoked callback.
• Phaser.Ellipse.contains is now working again (thanks @spayton #1524)
• PIXI.WebGLRenderer.destroy has been fixed to decrement the glContextId and remove it from the PIXI.instances global. Game.destroy now hooks into this. This now means that you can now delete and create your Phaser game over and over without it crashing WebGL after the 4th attempt (#1260)
• World.setBounds if called after you had already started P2 Physics would incorrectly create a new collision group for the wall objects. P2.World now remembers the settings you provide for each wall and the collision group, and re-applies these settings should the world dimensions ever change (thanks @nextht #1455)
• InputHandler was using the wrong property in checkBoundsSprite when fixedToCamera (thanks @yig #1613)
• Tween.to now correctly accepts arrays are destination values, which makes the Tween interpolate through each value specified in the array using the defined Tween.interpolation method (see new example, thanks @FridayMarch26th #1619)
• Tween.interpolationFunction was using the incorrect context to invoke the function. This is now defined in TweenData.interpolationContext and defaults to Phaser.Math. If you provide your own interpolation function then please adjust the context accordingly (thanks @FridayMarch26th #1618)
• Graphics.drawEllipse method was missing (thanks @jackrugile #1574)
• A TweenData wouldn't take into account the repeatDelay property when repeating the tween, but now does. A TweenData also has a new property yoyoDelay which controls the delay before the yoyo will start, allowing you to set both independently (thanks @DreadKnight #1469)
• Animation.update skips ahead frames when the system is lagging, however it failed to set the animation to the final frame in the sequence if the animation skipped ahead too far (thanks @richpixel #1628)
• Loader.preloadSprite had an extra guard added to ensure it didn't try to updateCrop a non-existent sprite (thanks @noidexe #1636)
• The TilemapParser has had its row / column calculations updated to account for margins and and spacing on all sides of the tileset (thanks @zekoff #1642)
• Any Tile set with alpha !== 1 would cause the whole layer to render incorrectly (thanks @nkholski #1666)
• P2 Debug Body class: The shape check in draw() needed to check for Convex last, since other shapes (like Rectangle) inherit from Convex (thanks @englercj #1674)
• P2 Debug Body class: The updateSpriteTransform() function needed to be called from the ctor. Otherwise bodies with no sprite (so no postUpdate call) would never be moved to draw in the correct position (thanks @englercj #1674)
• Animations are now guarded allowing Sprites with animations to be destroyed from within onUpdate, onLoop or onComplete events (thanks @pnstickne #1685 #1679)
• Text.lineSpacing can now accept negative values without cutting the bottom of the Text object off. The value can never be less than the height of a single line of text (thanks @anthonysapp #1690)
• Text.lineSpacing is no longer applied to the first line of Text, which prevents text from being cut off further down the Text object.
• If you paused a Sound object that is using audio markers and then resumed it, it wouldn't correctly calculate the resume duration - causing the sound to sometimes play into the marker that followed it (thanks @AnderbergE #1669)
• Animation.play wouldn't correctly set the play state on the Game Objects AnimationManager causing the animation to fail to start (calling AnimationManager.play did work however), now they're both consistently working.
• Graphics.drawArc would fail to draw any subsequent arcs if you set beginFill on it after drawing the first arc.
• Graphics.drawArc would only move to the center position of the first arc created and ignore any subsequent arcs.
• Graphics.drawArc now correctly renders multiple arcs across both WebGL and Canvas. You no longer need to specifically call moveTo to move into the correct place to draw the arc.
• Graphics.drawArc now bails out if the startAngle = the endAngle and/or the sweep is invalid before adjusting any points.
• Graphics.drawArc now correctly handles the fill on the CanvasRenderer if the arc is a subsequent arc and no line style is set.

Pixi 2.2.8 Bug Fixes

• SpriteBatch added fix to handle batch context loss on change.
• RenderTexture resolution fix.
• WebGL Filter Resolution fix.
• TilingSprite fixes when masked in canvas mode.
• TilingSprite.destroy fixed if TilingSprite hasn't ever been rendered.

Version 2.2.2 - "Alkindar" - 6th January 2015

New Features

• Phaser.Loader now supports BLOB urls for audio files (thanks @aressler38 #1462)
• Line.reflect will calculate the reflected, or outgoing angle of two lines. This can be used for Body vs. Line collision responses and rebounds.
• Line.normalAngle gets the angle of the line normal in radians.
• Line.normalX and Line.normalY contain the x and y components of the left-hand normal of the line.
• Line.fromAngle will sets this line to start at the given x and y coordinates and for the segment to extend at angle for the given length.
• BitmapData.drawGroup draws the immediate children of a Phaser.Group to a BitmapData. Children are only drawn if they have their exists property set to true. The children will be drawn at their x and y world space coordinates. When drawing it will take into account the child's rotation, scale and alpha values. No iteration takes place. Groups nested inside other Groups will not be iterated through.

Updates

• TypeScript definitions fixes and updates (thanks @clark-stevenson @Schmavery)
• DOM.visualBounds now includes scroll bars (#1429)
• The new fixed time-step code has been more carefully linked to Pixi transform updates. This should finally put a stop to the tunneling issues that were being reported.
• Tween.stop fired a different set of onComplete parameters to Tween.update. Both now dispatch `onComplete(target, tween)`` as the parameters in that order (thanks @P0rnflake #1450)
• Removed redundant tolerance parameter from Rectangle.intersects (thanks @toolness #1463)
• Phaser.Graphics.drawCircle now overrides PIXI.drawCircle which means the docs are now correct re: diameter not radius (thanks @ethankaminski #1454)
• Device.webAudio check inversed to avoid throwing a warning in Chrome.
• Mouse.mouseMoveCallback is flagged as deprecated.
• Remove tw and th init from TilemapLayer (thanks @nextht #1474)
• Particles.Arcade.Emitter.makeParticles now checks the given quantity value against Emitter.maxParticles. If quantity is more than maxParticles then the maxParticles value is reset to the new quantity given (as this is how most devs seem to use it).
• Particles.Arcade.Emitter.emitParticle now returns a boolean depending if a particle was emitted or not.
• Particles.Arcade.Emitter.update only updates _counter if a particle was successfully emitted.
• Phaser.Point.angleSq removed. It didn't work so any code relying on it would be broken, and it's unclear what it was meant for (thanks @nextht #1396)
• BitmapData.copy tx parameter if null and source is a Display Object, it will default to source.x.
• BitmapData.copy ty parameter if null and source is a Display Object, it will default to source.y.

Bug Fixes

• Fix / double-copy for Safari tilemap bug when rendering with delta scrolling. This fixes tilemaps not appearing to update on Safari OS X and iOS specifically (thanks @pnstickne @neurofuzzy @lastnightsparty #1439 #1498)
• Simplified call to updateTransform. This is the unified and verified fix for #1424 #1479 #1490 #1502 and solves issues with physics tunneling and visual glitches under the new time step code.
• Tween.delay, Tween.repeat and Tween.yoyo will no longer throw an error if called before a TweenData object has been created (via Tween.to or Tween.from) (thanks @SomMeri #1419)
• The click trampoline added for IE prevented Chrome for Android from being able to launch Full Screen mode with the default parameters for ScaleManger#startFullScreen (the desktop version of Chrome was not affected.). This is now fixed and additional compatibility settings (clickTrampoline) that can be used to configure when such is used. By default the 'when-not-mouse' mode is only enabled for Desktop browsers, where the primary input is ubiquitously a mouse. There are no known breaking compatibility changes - the Full Screen should be initiatable in Chrome for Android as it was in 2.1.x. The default Android browser does not support Full Screen (thanks @pnstickne)
• TilemapParser now checks for image collections, avoiding crashes. These would arise with maps exported from the new release of Tiled (thanks @paul-reilly #1440)
• Group.replace could still access newChild.parent after it was set to undefined. This unifies the approach (thanks @pnstickne #1410 #1417)
• P2.postBroadphaserHandler updated to avoid skipping final 2 pairs.
• The P2 World constructor wouldn't let you use your own config unless you specified both the gravity and broadphase. Now allows one or both (thanks @englercj #1412)
• The RandomDataGenerator could be seeded with an array of values. However if the array contained a zero it would stop seeding from that point (thanks @jpcloud @pnstickne #1456)
• Added extra checks to Sound.play to stop it throwing DOM Exception Error 11 if the sound.readyState wasn't set or the sound was invalid. Also wrapped stop()`` call in a try catch`.
• Time.reset would incorrectly reset the _started property, now maps it to Time.time (thanks @XekeDeath #1467)

Version 2.2.0 - "Bethal" - 3rd December 2014

New Features

• Updated to Pixi v2.2.0 - see separate change log entry below.

• Cache.getRenderTexture will retrieve a RenderTexture that is stored in the Phaser Cache. This method replaces Cache.getTexture which is now deprecated.

• Cache.autoResolveURL is a new boolean (default false) that automatically builds a cached map of all loaded assets vs. their absolute URLs, for use with Cache.getURL and Cache.checkURL. Note that in 2.1.3 and earlier this was enabled by default, but has since been moved behind this property which needs to be set to true before you load any assets to enable.

• You can now call Tween.to again on a Tween that has already completed. This will re-use the same tween, on the original object, without having to recreate the Tween again. This allows a single tween instance to be re-used multiple times, providing they are linked to the same object (thanks InsaneHero)

• Phaser.Color.valueToColor converts a value: a "hex" string, a "CSS 'web' string", or a number - into red, green, blue, and alpha components (thanks @pnstickne #1264)

• Stage.backgroundColor now supports CSS 'rgba' values, as well as hex strings and hex numbers (thanks @pnstickne #1234)

• Pointer.addClickTrampoline now adds in support for click trampolines. These raise pointer events into click events, which are required internally for a few edge cases like IE11 full screen mode support, but are also useful if you know you specifically need a DOM click event from a pointer (thanks @pnstickne #1282)

• Point.floor will Math.floor both the x and y values of the Point.

• Point.ceil will Math.ceil both the x and y values of the Point.

• ScaleManager.scaleSprite takes a Sprite or Image object and scales it to fit the given dimensions. Scaling happens proportionally without distortion to the sprites texture. The letterBox parameter controls if scaling will produce a letter-box effect or zoom the sprite until it fills the given values.

• Phaser.DOM.getBounds is a cross-browser element.getBoundingClientRect method with optional cushion.

• Phaser.DOM.calibrate is a private method that calibrates element coordinates for viewport checks.

• Phaser.DOM.aspect gets the viewport aspect ratio (or the aspect ratio of an object or element)

• Phaser.DOM.inViewport tests if the given DOM element is within the viewport, with an optional cushion parameter that allows you to specify a distance.

• Phaser.DOM.viewportWidth returns the viewport width in pixels.

• Phaser.DOM.viewportHeight returns the viewport height in pixels.

• Phaser.DOM.documentWidth returns the document width in pixels.

• Phaser.DOM.documentHeight returns the document height in pixels.

• TilemapLayers have been given a decent performance boost on canvas with map shifting edge-redraw (thanks @pnstickne #1250)

• A large refactor to how the internal game timers and physics calculations has been made. We've now swapped to using a fixed time step internally across Phaser, instead of the variable one we had before that caused glitchse on low-fps systems. Thanks to pjbaron for his help with all of these related changes.

• We have separated the logic and render updates to permit slow motion and time slicing effects. We've fixed time calling to fix physics problems caused by variable time updates (i.e. collisions sometimes missing, objects tunneling, etc)

• Once per frame calling for rendering and tweening to keep things as smooth as possible

• Calculates a suggestedFps value (in multiples of 5 fps) based on a 2 second average of actual elapsed time values in the Time.update method. This is recalculated every 2 seconds so it could be used on a level-by-level basis if a game varies dramatically. I.e. if the fps rate consistently drops, you can adjust your game effects accordingly.

• Game loop now tries to "catch up" frames if it is falling behind by iterating the logic update. This will help if the logic is occasionally causing things to run too slow, or if the renderer occasionally pushes the combined frame time over the FPS time. It's not a band-aid for a game that floods a low powered device however, so you still need to code accordingly. But it should help capture issues such as gc spikes or temporarily overloaded CPUs.

• It now detects 'spiraling' which happens if a lot of frames are pushed out in succession meaning the CPU can never "catch up". It skips frames instead of trying to catch them up in this case. Note: the time value passed to the logic update functions is always constant regardless of these shenanigans.

• Signals to the game program if there is a problem which might be fixed by lowering the desiredFps

• Time.desiredFps is the new desired frame rate for your game.

• Time.suggestedFps is the suggested frame rate for the game based on system load.

• Time.slowMotion allows you to push the game into a slow motion mode. The default value is 1.0. 2.0 would be half speed, and so on.

• Time.timeCap is no longer used and now deprecated. All timing is now handled by the fixed time-step code we've introduced.

• Time.now can no longer be relied upon to contain a timestamp value. If the browser supports requestAnimationFrame then Time.now will contain the high resolution timer value that rAf generates. Otherwise it will contain the value of Date.now. If you require the actual time value (in milliseconds) then please use Time.time instead. Note that all Phaser sub-systems that used to rely on Time.now have been updated, so if you have any code that extends these please be sure to check it.

• Game.forceSingleUpdate will force just a single logic update, regardless of the delta timer values. You can use this in extremely heavy CPU situations where you know you're about to flood the CPU but don't want Phaser to get stuck in a spiral.

• Tilemap.createFromTiles will convert all tiles matching the given tile index (or an array of indexes) into Sprites. You can optionally then replace these tiles if you wish. This is perfect for games when you want to turn specific tiles into Sprites for extra control. The Sprites have an optional properties object which they can be populated with.

• Added support for the Wheel Event, which is the DOM3 spec (thanks @pnstickne #1318)

• Wheel Scroll Event (old non-FF) and DOM Mouse Wheel (old FF) are supported via a non-exported reused wrapper object; WheelEventProxy. The proxy methods are generated one-time dynamically but only when needed.

• Key.justDown allows you to test if a Key has just been pressed down or not. You can only call justDown once per key press. It will only return true once, until the Key is released and pressed down again. This allows you to use it in situations where you want to check if this key is down without using a Signal, such as in a core game loop (thanks @pjbaron #1321)

• Key.justUp allows you to test if a Key has just been released or not. You can only call justUp once per key press. It will only return true once, until the Key is pressed down and released again. This allows you to use it in situations where you want to check if this key is up without using a Signal, such as in a core game loop (thanks @pjbaron #1321)

• Device.whenReady is a new signal that you can use to tell when the device is initialized.

• Device.onInitialized is dispatched after device initialization occurs but before any of the ready callbacks have been invoked. Local "patching" for a particular device can/should be done in this event.

• TweenManager.removeFrom method allows you to remove a tween from a game object such as a Sprite (thanks @lewster32 #1279)

• Tweens have been completely rewritten. They're now much more flexible and efficient than before:

• When specifying the ease in Tween.to or Tween.from you can now use a string instead of the Function. This makes your code less verbose. For example instead of Phaser.Easing.Sinusoidal.Out and you can now just use the string "Sine".The string names match those used by TweenMax and includes: "Linear", "Quad", "Cubic", "Quart", "Quint", "Sine", "Expo", "Circ", "Elastic", "Back", "Bounce", "Power0", "Power1", "Power2", "Power3" and "Power4". You can append ".easeIn", ".easeOut" and "easeInOut" variants. All are supported for each ease types.

• Tweens now create a TweenData object. The Tween object itself acts like more of a timeline, managing multiple TweenData objects. You can now call Tween.to and each call will create a new child tween that is added to the timeline, which are played through in sequence.

• Tweens are now bound to the new Time.desiredFps value and update based on the new Game core loop, rather than being bound to time calculations. This means that tweens are now running with the same update logic as physics and the core loop.

• Tween.timeScale allows you to scale the duration of a tween (and any child tweens it may have). A value of 1.0 means it should play at the desiredFps rate. A value of 0.5 will run at half the frame rate, 2 at double and so on. You can even tween the timeScale value for interesting effects!

• Tween.reverse allows you to instantly reverse an active tween. If the Tween has children then it will smoothly reverse through all child tweens as well.

• Tween.repeatAll allows you to control how many times all child tweens will repeat before firing the Tween.onComplete event. You can set the value to -1 to repeat forever.

• Tween.loop now controls the looping of all child tweens.

• Tween.onRepeat is a new signal that is dispatched whenever a Tween repeats. If a Tween has many child tweens its dispatched once the sequence has repeated.

• Tween.onChildComplete is a new signal that is dispatched whenever any child tweens have completed. If a Tween consists of 4 sections you will get 3 onChildComplete events followed by 1 onComplete event as the final tween finishes.

• Chained tweens are now more intelligently handled. Because you can easily create child tweens (by simply calling Tween.to multiple times) chained tweens are now used to kick-off longer sequences. You can pass as many Tween objects to Tween.chain as you like as they'll all be played in sequence. As one Tween completes it passes on to the next until the entire chain is finished.

• Tween.stop has a new complete parameter that if set will still fire the onComplete event and start the next chained tween, if there is one.

• Tween.delay, Tween.repeat, Tween.yoyo, Tween.easing and Tween.interpolation all have a new index parameter. This allows you to target specific child tweens, or if set to -1 it will update all children at once.

• Tween.totalDuration reports the total duration of all child tweens in ms.

• There are new easing aliases:

• • Phaser.Easing.Power0 = Phaser.Easing.Linear.None
• • Phaser.Easing.Power1 = Phaser.Easing.Quadratic.Out
• • Phaser.Easing.Power2 = Phaser.Easing.Cubic.Out
• • Phaser.Easing.Power3 = Phaser.Easing.Quartic.Out
• • Phaser.Easing.Power4 = Phaser.Easing.Quintic.Out

• ScaleManager.windowContraints now allows specifying 'visual' or 'layout' as the constraint. Using the 'layout' constraint should prevent a mobile device from trying to resize the game when zooming.

  Including the the new changes the defaults have been changed to

  windowContraints = { right: 'layout', bottom: '' }

  This changes the current scaling behavior as seen in "Game Scaling" (as it will only scale for the right edge) but also prevents such scaling from going bonkers in some mobile environments like the newer Android browser. (Automatic scroll-to-top, albeit configurable, enabled for non-desktop by default is not a fun situation here.)

  To obtain the current semantics on a desktop the bottom should be changed to 'layout'; although this will result in different behavior depending on mobile device. To make the sizing also follow mobile zooming they should be changed to 'visual'.

  Also added temp Rectangle re-used for various internal calculations.

• Phaser.DOM now also special-cases desktops to align the layout bounds correctly (this may disagree with CSS breakpoints but it aligns the with actual CSS width), without applying a window height/width expansion as required on mobile browsers.

• Signals have been heavily restructured to cut down on the number that are generated in-game. New signal proxies manage the setting and creation as required, cutting down on the volume of run-time object creation significantly. No user code needs to change, however if you did override Phaser.Signal or Sprite.Events then please be aware of the changes by inspecting the source (and commit #1389 by @pnstickne).

• Game.lockRender is a new property. If false Phaser will automatically render the display list every update. If true the render loop will be skipped. You can toggle this value at run-time to gain exact control over when Phaser renders. This can be useful in certain types of game or application. Please note that if you don't render the display list then none of the game object transforms will be updated, so use this value carefully.

Updates

• TypeScript definitions fixes and updates (thanks @clark-stevenson @draconisNoctis)
• The TypeScript definitions have moved to the typescript folder in the root of the repository.
• Cache._resolveUrl has been renamed to Cache._resolveURL internally and gained a new parameter. This method is a private internal one.
• Cache.getUrl is deprecated. The same method is now available as Cache.getURL.
• Loader.useXDomainRequest used to be enabled automatically for IE9 but is now always set to false. Please enable it only if you know your server set-up / CDN requires it, as some most certainly do, but we're finding them to be less and less used these days, so we feel it's safe to now disable this by default (#1248)
• Game.destroy now destroys either the WebGLRenderer or CanvasRenderer, whichever Pixi was using.
• Particle.Emitter will now automatically set particle.body.skipQuadTree to true to help with collision speeds within Arcade Physics.
• Particle.Emitter.explode (or Emitter.start with the explode parameter set to true) will immediately emit the required quantity of particles and not delay until the next frame to do so. This means you can re-use a single emitter across multiple places in your game that require explode-style emissions, just by adjusting the emitter.x and emitter.y properties before calling explode (thanks Insanehero)
• Phaser.Polygon has been refactored to address some Pixi v2 migration issues (thanks @pnstickne for the original implementation #1267)
• Polygon.area is now only calculated when the Polygon points list is modified, rather than on every call.
• Phaser.Polygon can now accept the points list in a variety of formats: Arrays of Points, numbers, objects with public x/y properties or any combination of, or as a parameter list (thanks @pnstickne for the original implementation #1267)
• All of the Input classes now use the more consistent enabled property instead of disabled. I.e. you can now check if (input.mouse.enabled) rather than if (!input.mouse.disabled). The disabled property has been moved to a getter for backwards compatibility but is deprecated and will be removed in a future version (thanks @pnstickne #1257)
• The Input class has been given a minor refactor to tidy things up. Specifically:
  • pointerN are aliases to backed pointers[N-1] array. This simplifies (and increases the efficiency of) looping through all the pointers when applicable; also eliminates pointer-existence checks Removes various hard-coded limits (added MAX_POINTERS); changed maxPointers default
  • Removed some special-casing from cases where it did not matter
  • Removed === false/true, == usage for consistency, changed missing value check to typeof, etc.
  • Updated documentation for specificity; added @public@protected
  • @deprecated currentPointers due to odd set pattern; totalCurrentPointers is more appropriate. (thanks @pnstickne #1283)
• Various ScaleManager fixes and updates (thanks @pnstickne):
  • Scale modes can now be set independently
  • Switching between fullscreen and normal correctly restores modes
  • Alignment does not incorrectly offset in fullscreen mode (#1255)
  • Changing scale/alignment promptly refreshes layout
  • isFullScreen returns a boolean, as it should
  • Faster parent checks (if required)
  • NO_SCALE should not not scale (vs previous behavior of having no behavior)
  • Correct usage of scaleMode depending on mode
  • Fullscreen Mode always scaling to fill screen in Firefox (#1256)
• AudioSprite - removed an unnecessary if-statement (thanks @DaanHaaz #1312)
• ArcadePhysics.skipQuadTree is now set to true by default. A QuadTree is a wonderful thing if the objects in your game are well spaced out. But in tightly packed games, especially those with tilemaps or single-screen games, they are a considerable performance drain and eat up CPU. We've taken the decision to disable the Arcade Physics QuadTree by default. It's all still in there and can be re-enabled via game.physics.arcade.skipQuadTree = false, but please only do so if you're sure your game benefits from this.
• Phaser.DOM now houses new DOM functions. Some have been moved over from ScaleManager as appropriate.
• Key.justPressed has been renamed to Key.downDuration which is a much clearer name for what the method actually does. See Key.justDown for a nice clean alternative.
• Key.justReleased has been renamed to Key.upDuration which is a much clearer name for what the method actually does. See Key.justUp for a nice clean alternative.
• Keyboard.justPressed has been renamed to Keyboard.downDuration which is a much clearer name for what the method actually does.
• Keyboard.justReleased has been renamed to Keyboard.upDuration which is a much clearer name for what the method actually does.
• Keyboard.downDuration, Keyboard.upDuration and Keyboard.isDown now all return null if the Key wasn't found in the local keys array.
• The Phaser.Device class has been made into a singleton and removed it's dependency on Phaser.Game (thanks @pnstickne #1328)
• ArrayList has been renamed to ArraySet (as it's actually a data set implementation) and moved from the core folder to the utils folder (thanks @pnstickne)
• If you are reloading a Phaser Game on a page that never properly refreshes (such as in an AngularJS project) then you will quickly run out of AudioContext nodes. If this is the case create a global var called PhaserGlobal on the window object before creating the game. The active AudioContext will then be saved to window.PhaserGlobal.audioContext when the Phaser game is destroyed, and re-used when it starts again (#1233)
• Camera.screenView is now deprecated. All Camera culling checks are made against Camera.view now instead.
• Various CocoonJS related hacks removed thanks to fixes from Ludei directly in CocoonJS! Woohoo :)
• Phaser.HEADLESS check removed from the core game loop. If you need to disable rendering you can now override the Phaser.Game.updateRender method instead with your own.
• Group.forEach fixed against browser de-optimization (thanks @pnstickne #1357)
• Phaser.Signals have been taken on a diet. They have been updated such that there is significantly less penalty for having many unused signals. The changes include:
• • Changing it so there is no dispatch closure created. This is a potentially breaking change for third party code.
• • In the rare case that code needs to obtain a dispatch-closure, the boundDispatch property can be used to trivially obtain a cached closure.
• • The properties and default values are moved into the prototype; and the _bindings array creation is deferred. This change, coupled with the removal of the automatic closure, results in a very lightweight ~24bytes/object (in Chrome) for unbound signals.
• With this change in place Signals now consume less than 50KB / 50KB (shallow / retained memory) for 200 sprites, where-as before they used 300KB / 600KB (thanks @pnstickne #1359)
• Time.elapsedMS holds the number of milliseconds since the last Game loop, regardless of raF or setTimout being used.
• Incorrectly prepared tilemap images (with dimensions not evenly divisible by the tile dimensions) would render incorrectly when compared to the display seen in Tiled. The Phaser tilemap code has been adjusted to match the way Tiled deals with this, which should help if you're using tileset images that contain extra padding/margin pixels. Additional console warnings have been added. However the fact remains that you should carefully prepare your tilesets before using them. Crop off extra padding, make sure they are the right dimensions (thanks @SoulBeaver for the report and @pnstickne for the fix #1371)
• Text.setShadow has had the default color value changed from rgba(0,0,0,0) to rgba(0,0,0,1) so it appears as a black shadow by default - before the alpha channel made it invisible.
• Math.getRandom will now return null if random selection is missing, or array has no entries (thanks @pnstickne #1395)
• Array.transposeArray has had a small off-by-one error fixed. It didn't effect the results but meant returned arrays were 1 element bigger than needed (thanks @nextht #1394)
• State.preRender is now sent two parameters: a reference to the Phaser.Game instance and a new parameter: elapsedTime which is the time elapsed since the last update.

Bug Fixes

• Tilemaps in WebGL wouldn't update after the first frame due to a subtle change in how Pixi uploads new textures to the GPU.
• XML files weren't being added to the URL map.
• Cache._resolveURL was causing a Sound double-load in Firefox and causing errors (thanks @domonyiv #1253)
• Loader.json was using the wrong context in IE9 with XDomainRequest calls (thanks @pnstickne #1258)
• Text.updateText was incorrectly increasing the size of the texture each time it was called (thanks @spayton #1261)
• Polygon.contains now correctly calculates the result (thanks @pnstickne @BurnedToast #1267)
• Setting Key.enabled = false while it is down did not reset the isDown state (thanks @pnstickne #1190 #1271)
• The Gamepad.addCallbacks context parameter was never actually remembered, causing the callbacks to run in the wrong context (thanks @englercj #1285)
• Animation.setFrame used the wrong frames array if useLocalFrameIndex was false and a numeric frame ID was given (thanks @Skeptron #1284)
• Fullscreen mode in IE11 now works (thanks @pnstickne)
• Cache.addBitmapData now auto-creates a FrameData (thanks @pnstickne #1294 #1300)
• P2.BodyDebug circles were drawing at half widths (thanks @enriqueto #1288)
• FrameData.clone fixed when cloning data using frame names rather than indexes (thanks pjbaron)
• Lots of the Cache getters (such as Cache.getbitmapData) would return undefined if the asset couldn't be found. They now all consistently return null for missing entries (thanks @Matoking #1305)
• Phaser games should now work again from the CocoonJS Launcher.
• Only one of the mouse wheel events is listened to, newest standard first. This fixes a bug in FF where it would use the default DOMMouseWheel (thanks @pnstickne #1313)
• Stage.smoothed needed to modify the value of PIXI.scaleMode.DEFAULT instead of PIXI.scaleMode.LINEAR (thanks @pixelpicosean #1322)
• Newly created Groups always had zero z index (thanks @spayton #1291)
• Sprite.autoCull now properly works if the camera moves around the world.
• Sprite.inCamera uses a much faster check if auto culling or world bounds checks are enabled and properly adjusts for camera position.
• Camera.totalInView is a new property that contains the total number of Sprites rendered that have autoCull set to true and are within the Cameras view.
• Emitter.setScale fixed minX minY order precedence (thanks spayton)
• Group.iterate can now accept undefined/null as the arguments (thanks @pnstickne #1353 @tasos-ch #1352)
• When you change State the P2 Physics world is no longer fully cleared. All of the bodies, springs, fixtures, materials and constraints are removed - but config settings such as gravity, restitution, the contact solver, etc are all retained. The P2.World object is only created the very first time you call Physics.startSystem. Every subsequent call hits P2.World.reset instead. This fixes "P2.World gravity broken after switching states" (and other related issues) (#1292 #1289 #1176)
• Text.lineSpacing works correctly again. Before no space was added between the lines (thanks @intimidate #1367 and @brejep #1366)
• P2.BodyDebug always lagged behind the position of the Body it was tracking by one frame, which became visible at high speeds. It now syncs its position in the Body.postUpdate which prevents this from happening (thanks @valueerror)
• A State.preRender callback wasn't removed correctly when switching States.

Version 2.1.3 - "Ravinda" - 23rd October 2014

New Features

• Updated to Pixi v2.0.0 (see change list below)
• Happily removed the IE11 WebGL lock as Pixi now fully supports it :)
• Time.prevTime is a new property that contains the raw value of the game timer from the previous update.
• Sound.fadeTo allows you to fade the Sound to the given volume over the duration specified (thanks @nickryall #1225)
• BitmapData.getFirstPixel will scan the BitmapData and return the color and location of the first non-transparent pixel encountered. You can specify one of 4 scan directions: top to bottom, bottom to top, left to right and right to left.
• BitmapData.getBounds will return a Rectangle object that encompasses the full extent of the non-transparent pixels in the BitmapData. This can be useful if you wish to trim away transparent pixels from the sides of a BitmapData down to size before saving.
• Rectangle.scale allows you to scale the width and height of a Rectangle.
• RenderTexture has a new optional parameter: resolution

Updates

• TypeScript definitions fixes and updates (thanks @clark-stevenson)
• Changed the Animation constructor parameter delay to frameRate as it's a more accurate term of what it should be. Internally nothing changed.
• Circle.getBounds added.
• Ellipse.getBounds added.
• Device.canPlayAudio now supports opus files directly, as well as opus encoded audio stored in ogg containers (#1232)
• PIXI.AbstractFilter is now bundled by default to support the new sprite.shader feature in Pixi v2.
• Changed all typeof comparisons from == to === (thanks @bobbywilson0 #1230)
• JSDoc fixes in the Rope class (thanks @Rovanion)
• Filter.update now caches the previous pointer position to avoid flooding the uniform. Also the mouse uniform is now a value between 0 and 1 depending on the position within the game view.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a reference error to the Loader.baseURL in Cache._resolveUrl method. This stops the error where Safari would show lots of file load errors but then still load the files (thanks @neurofuzzy #1235)
• Fixed the Filter mouse uniform value population.
• Fixed an issue where audio files with query strings after them would fail the canPlayAudio checks (thanks Vithar)
• Input.hitTest now accurately detects hits on the extreme edges of a display object (thanks InsaneHero)
• Button.setSounds now works if given an AudioSprite as the sound source.

Pixi v2 Specific New Features

• Renderers now have a resolution. Ideal for working with different pixel density.
• Big refactor of the webGLRenderer and WebGLSpriteBatch renderer.
• Refactor of CanvasRenderer.
• DisplayObject.updateTransform function rewritten with for better performance.
• New Events Class.
• New Constructor for all renderers (including autoDetect)
• Massive Refactor of Graphics (WebGL and Canvas)
• Graphics objects can now be interactive.
• Made removeChild no longer returns error.
• Lots of new functions added to the Matrix class.

• Added 0 width check to DisplayObjectContainer.

Version 2.1.2 - "Whitebridge" - 9th October 2014

New Features

• StateManager.unlink will null all State-level Phaser properties, such as game, add, etc. Useful if you never need to return to the State again.
• Cache.removeImage has a new parameter: removeFromPixi which is true by default. It will remove the image from the Pixi BaseTextureCache as well as from the Phaser Cache. Set to false if you don't want the Pixi cache touched.
• Group.ignoreDestroy boolean will bail out early from any call to Group.destroy. Handy if you need to create a global Group that persists across States.
• Loader can now natively load XML files via load.xml. Once the XML file has loaded it is parsed via either DOMParser or ActiveXObject and then added to the Cache, where it can be retrieved via cache.getXML(key).
• Cache now has support for XML files stored in their own container. You can add them with cache.addXML (typically this is done from the Loader automatically for you) and get them with cache.getXML(key). There is also cache.checkXMLKey(key), cache.checkKeys and cache.removeXML(key).
• Rectangle.aabb is a new method that will take an array of Points and return a Rectangle that matches the AABB (bounding area) of the Points (thanks @codevinsky #1199)
• AudioSprite support is now built into the Loader and SoundManager. AudioSprites are like sprite sheets, only they consist of a selection of audio files and markers in a json configuration. You can find more details at https://github.com/tonistiigi/audiosprite (thanks @codevinsky #1205)
• Point.parse will return a new Point object based on the x and y properties of the object given to Point.parse (thanks @codevinsky #1198)
• Sound.fadeOut(duration) will fade the Sound to a volume of zero over the duration given. At the end of the fade the Sound will be stopped and Sound.onFadeComplete dispatched.
• Sound.fadeIn(duration, loop) will start the Sound playing, or restart it if already playing, set its volume to zero and then increase the volume over the duration given until it reaches 1. At the end of the fade the Sound.onFadeComplete event is dispatched.
• Text.addColor allows you to set specific colors within the Text. It works by taking a color value, which is a typical HTML string such as #ff0000 or rgb(255,0,0) and a position. The position value is the index of the character in the Text string to start applying this color to. Once set the color remains in use until either another color or the end of the string is encountered. For example if the Text was Photon Storm and you did Text.addColor('#ffff00', 6) it would color in the word Storm in yellow.
• Text.clearColors resets any previously set colors from Text.addColor.
• If you pass a tinted Sprite to BitmapData.draw or BitmapData.copy it will now draw the tinted version of the Sprite to the BitmapData and not the original texture.
• BitmapData.shadow(color, blur, x, y) provides a quick way to set all the relevant shadow settings, which are then be used in future draw calls.
• Cache.addBitmapData has a new parameter: frameData allowing you to pass a Phaser.FrameData object along with the BitmapData.
• Cache.getFrameData has a new parameter: map which allows you to specify which cache to get the FrameData from, i.e. Phaser.Cache.IMAGE or Phaser.Cache.BITMAPDATA.
• Sprite.loadTexture if given a BitmapData as the texture will now query the cache to see if it has any associated FrameData, and if so it will load that into the AnimationManager.
• BitmapData.textureLine takes a Phaser.Line object and an image in the image cache. It then accurately draws the image as a repeating texture for the full length of the line.
• AnimationManager.name will now return the name property of the currently playing animation, if any.
• Group.filter takes a predicate function and passes child, index, and the entire child array to it. It then returns an ArrayList containing all children that the predicate returns true for (thanks @codevinsky #1187)
• Cache.checkUrl allows you to check if a resource is in the cache based on an absolute URL (thanks @englercj #1221)
• Cache.getUrl gets a resource from the cache based on the absolute URL it was loaded from (thanks @englercj #1221)
• Sound.allowMultiple allows you to have multiple instances of a single Sound playing at once. This is only useful when running under Web Audio, and we recommend you implement a local pooling system to not flood the sound channels. But it allows for one Sound object to play overlapping times, useful for gun effects and similar (#1220)

Updates

• TypeScript definitions fixes and updates (thanks @clark-stevenson @englercj @benjamindulau)
• Added the sourceRect and maskRect parameters back into BitmapData.alphaMask as they were accidentally removed in 2.1 (thanks seejay92)
• jsdoc fixes (thanks @danxexe #1209)
• AnimationParser is now using value instead of nodeValue when parsing atlas XML files, avoiding Chrome deprecation warnings (thanks @valtterip #1189)
• Color.webToColor restored. Converts a CSS rgba color into a native color value.
• Color.createColor now populates the color property of the returned object with the results of Phaser.Color.getColor.
• Color.createColor now has a color32 property with the results of Phaser.Color.getColor32.
• Color.hexToColor has been optimised to inline the regex and has moved the createColor call so it now populates the color object fully, not just setting the r,g,b properties.
• Keyboard.PLUS and Keyboard.MINUS have been added to the list of key codes (thanks @VictorBjelkholm #1281)

Bug Fixes

• If Game Objects change their frame, such as with an animated Sprite, and the change goes from a previously trimmed frame to a non-trimmed (full size) one, then the previous trim values were still left active, causing it to glitch (thanks stupot)
• If you called StateManager.start from within a states init method which also had a preload method it would fail to start the next State.
• StateManager.boot would call start on a State twice if it was added to the game and started before the DOM load had completed. This didn't cause an error but was duplicating function calls needlessly.
• Changing any of the Text properties such as font, lineSpacing and fontSize on a Text object that wasn't already on the display list would cause an updateTransform error. Parent is now checked first in all setters.
• A Timer with a delay value that was a float and not an integer would not loop correctly. Timer delay values are now passed through Math.round to avoid this (thanks @osmanzeki #1196)
• The Loader would incorrectly call fileComplete for legacy audio files instead of setting it as a callback, throwing up errors if the audio file failed to load (thanks @spayton #1212)
• The Uint32Array check used in Utils was incorrectly replacing Uint32Array on Safari, causing errors like BitmapData.getPixel32 to fail and other related issues (fixes #1043 and #1197)
• Camera.follow would break if the parent of the Sprite being followed was scaled in any way (thanks @englercj #1222)
• Fixed the 4fv uniform in the Pixelate filter.

Version 2.1.1 - "Eianrod" - 11th September 2014

Version 2.1.1. of Phaser is an emergency point release. It addresses a potential race condition that could happen in States that tried to change state from the create method but had an empty preloader or pre-cached assets.

Version 2.1.0 - "Cairhien" - 9th September 2014

New Features

• Updated to p2.js 0.6.0 - this was an API breaking change, so please see the p2.js section of this change log specifically if you're using p2 in your game.
• If you are using CocoonJS, please set your game render type to CANVAS and not WEBGL or AUTO. You should also disable any of the ScaleManager screen resizing or margin setting code. By default in this mode CocoonJS will now set 'screencanvas=true' which helps with performance significantly.
• Ninja Physics is no longer included in the build files by default. Not enough people were using it, and not enough contributions were coming in to help polish it up, so we've saved the space and removed it. It's still available in the grunt build files if you require it, but we're deprecating it from the core library at this time. It will make a return in Phaser3 when we move to a modular class system.
• ScaleManager has a new scaleMode called RESIZE which will tell Phaser to track the size of the parent container (either a dom element or the browser window if none given) and set the canvas size to match it. If the parent changes size the canvas will resize as well, keeping a 1:1 pixel ratio. There is also a new ScaleManager.setResizeCallback method which will let you define your own function to handle resize events from the game, such as re-positioning sprites for a fluid responsive layout (#642)
• The width and height given to the Phaser.Game constructor can now be numbers or strings in which case the value is treated as a percentage. For example a value of "100%" for the width and height will tell Phaser to size the game to match the parent container dimensions exactly (or the browser window if no parent is given). Equally a size of "50%" would tell it to be half the size of the parent. The values are retained even through resize events, allowing it to maintain a percentage size based on the parent even as it updates.
• Device will now detect for Kindle and PS Vita (thanks @lucbloom)
• Device will now detect for Cordova (thanks @videlais #1102)
• Arcade Physics Body.skipQuadTree is a new boolean that if set to true when you collide the Sprite against a Group it will tell Phaser to skip using a QuadTree for that collision. This is handy if this Body is especially large.
• Arcade Physics World.skipQuadTree will disable the use of all QuadTrees in collision methods, which can help performance in tightly packed scenes.
• Cordova 'deviceready' event check added (thanks @videlais #1120)
• Loader.useXDomainRequest boolean added. If true (the default is false, unless the browser is detected as being IE9 specifically) it will use XDomainRequest when loading JSON files instead of xhr. In rare IE edge-cases this may be required. You'll know if you need it (#1131 #1116)
• Added support for Tiled objects type field (thanks @rex64 #1111)
• Tile properties are now copied from the Tiled JSON data to the Phaser.Tile objects when parsed (thanks @beeglebug #1126)
• All Images now have a frameData value, even if it's only one frame. This removes lots of engine code needed to check if images are sprite sheets or not, and simplifies game code too (thanks @lucbloom #1059)
• Added a new Phaser.Rope object. This allows for a series of 'chained' Sprites and extends the Rope support built into Pixi. Access it via game.add.rope (thanks @codevinsky #1030)
• Phaser.Device.isAndroidStockBrowser will inform you if your game is running in a stock Android browser (rather than Chrome) where you may wish to scale down effects, disable WebGL, etc (thanks @lucbloom #989)
• Phaser.Camera has a new property position which is a Point object that allows you to get or set the camera position without having to read both the x and y values (thanks @Zielak #1015)
• TileSprite now has the alive property, which should help with some Group operations (thanks @jonkelling #1085)
• Events.onDestroy is a new signal that is dispatched whenever the parent is being destroyed. It's dispatched at the start of the destroy process, allowing you to perform any additional house cleaning needed (thanks @jonkelling #1084)
• Group.onDestroy is a new signal that is dispatched whenever the Group is being destroyed. It's dispatched at the start of the destroy process, allowing you to perform any additional house cleaning needed (thanks @jonkelling #1084)
• ScaleManager.destroy now removes the window and document event listeners, which are no longer created anonymously (thanks @eguneys #1092)
• Input.Gamepad.destroy now destroys all connected SinglePads and clears event listeners.
• SinglePad.destroy now clears all associated GamepadButton objects and signals.
• Device.node and Device.nodeWebKit are two new properties (thanks @videlais #1129)
• P2.PointProxy.mx and my values are get and set in meters with no pixel conversion taking place.
• P2.InversePointProxy.mx and my values are get and set in meters with no pixel conversion taking place.
• Pointer.dirty is a new boolean that is set by the InputHandler. It tells the Pointer to re-check all interactive objects it may be over on the next update, regardless if it has moved position or not. This helps solve issues where you may have a Button that on click generates a pop-up window that now obscures the Button (thanks @jflowers45 #882)
• SoundManager.destroy is a new method that will destroy all current sounds and reset any callbacks.
• StateManager.clearCurrentState now handles the process of clearing down the current state and is now called if the Game is destroyed.
• Game.destroy now clears the current state, activating its shutdown callback if it had one. It also now destroys the SoundManager, stopping any currently running sounds (#1092)
• Animation.onUpdate is a new event that is dispatched each time the animation frame changes. Due to its intensive nature it is disabled by default. Enable it with Animation.enableUpdate = true (#902)
• Device now has new features to support detection of running inside a CocoonJS.App (thanks @videlais #1150)
• Support for CocoonJS.App's 'onSuspended' and 'onActivated' events, making it so that the timers and sounds are stopped/started and muted/unmuted when the user swaps an app from the background to the fore or the reverse (thanks @videlais #1152)
• Canvas.removeFromDOM(canvas) will remove a canvas element from the DOM.
• Game.destroy now removes the games canvas element from the DOM.
• ScaleManager.setMinMax(minWidth, minHeight, maxWidth, maxHeight) is a handy function to allow you to set all the min/max dimensions in one call.
• ArcadePhysics.collide and overlap can now accept 2 Arrays of objects to be used in the collision checks (thanks @ctmartinez1992 #1158)
• RetroFont has a new property called frameData which contains the Frame objects for each of the letters in the font, which can be used by Sprites.
• Phaser.Canvas.setImageRenderingCrisp now sets image-rendering: pixelated, perfect for pixel art, which is now supported in Chrome 38.
• Phaser.Mouse will now add a listener to the window to detect mouseup events. This is used to detect if the player releases the mouse while outside of the game canvas. Previously Pointer objects incorrectly thought they were still pressed when you returned the mouse over the canvas (#1167)
• Rectangle.centerOn(x,y) allows you to quickly center a Rectangle on the given coordinates.
• Group.addMultiple allows you to pass an array of game objects and they'll all be added to the Group in turn.
• The StateManager will now check if a State has a method called resize. If it does, and if the game is running in the RESIZE Scale Mode then this method will be called whenever the game resizes. It will be passed two parameters: width and height that will match the games new dimensions. Resizing can happen as a result of either the parent container changing shape, or the browser window resizing.
• Rectangle.topRight returns a Point object that represents the top-right coordinate of the Rectangle.
• The grunt script now builds a new version of Phaser without any physics (including Arcade Physics), Tilemaps or Particles. This build is called phaser-no-physics.js and works stand-alone. Please note that things like the GameObjectFactory aren't changed, so they will still try and create a Tilemap for example should you ask them to (thanks @eguneys #1172)
• Camera.roundPx is a new boolean. If set to true it will call view.floor as part of its update loop, keeping its boundary to integer values. Set to false to disable this from happening (#1141)
• Phaser.Easing.Default is a new property that is used when a specific type of ease isn't given. It defaults to Linear.None but can be overridden to anything (thanks @alvinsight)

Updates

• TypeScript definition updates to help fix for the noimplicitany option (thanks @Waog #1088)
• TypeScript definitions fixes and updates (thanks @clark-stevenson @englercj @saikobee and @rhmoller)
• All of the Pixi geom classes have been removed from the build file as they aren't needed (the Phaser.Geom classes overwrite them), saving some space in the process.
• Improved consistency of clone methods on geometry classes (thanks @beeglebug #1130)
• Removed Cache.isSpriteSheet method as no longer required (see #1059)
• Added Cache.getFrameCount to return the number of frames in a FrameData.
• Input.setMoveCallback has been removed due to deprecation.
• BitmapData.refreshBuffer has been removed and replaced with BitmapData.update.
• BitmapData.drawSprite has been removed due to deprecation. Use BitmapData.draw instead.
• Pointer.moveCallback has been removed due to deprecation.
• SinglePad.addButton has been removed due to deprecation.
• P2.Body.loadData has been removed due to deprecation.
• P2.World.defaultFriction and defaultRestitution have been removed due to deprecation.
• Canvas.create noCocoon parameter has been removed due to deprecation.
• Color.getColorInfo, RGBtoHexstring, RGBtoWebstring and colorToHexstring has been removed due to deprecation.
• P2.PointProxy.x and y values are now returned in pixels (previously they were returned in meters). See PointProxy.mx/my for meter values.
• P2.InversePointProxy.x and y values are now returned in pixels (previously they were returned in meters). See PointProxy.mx/my for meter values.
• Arcade.overlap and collide are now more consistent about allowing a Group vs. Group or Group vs. Array of Groups set (thanks @pyromanfo #877 #1147)
• The Pointer move callbacks are now sent an extra parameter: fromClick allowing your callbacks to distinguish between the Pointer just moving, or moving as a result of being pressed down (thanks @iforce2d #1055)
• GamePad and SinglePad onAxisCallback parameters have changed. You are now sent: this (a reference to the SinglePad that caused the callback), the axis index and the axis value in that order.
• If Time.elapsed was > Time.timeCap it would reset the elapsed value to be 1 / 60. It's now set to Time.timeCap and Time.timeCap defaults to 1 / 60 * 1000 as it's a ms value (thanks @casensiom #899)
• Tiled polylines are now imported into the map objects property as well as map collision (#1117)
• Tile.setCollision now adjusts the tiles interesting faces list as well, this allows you to create one-way jump tiles without using custom callbacks on a specific tile basis (thanks @RafaelOliveira #886)
• Stage.offset has been moved to ScaleManager.offset
• Stage.bounds has been removed, you can access it via Stage.getBounds.
• Stage.checkOffsetInterval has been moved to ScaleManager.trackParentInterval
• ScaleManager.hasResized signal has been removed. Use ScaleManager.setResizeCallback instead.
• The World bounds can now be set to any size, including smaller than the game dimensions. Before it was locked to a minimum size of the game canvas, but it can now be anything.
• ScaleManager.orientationSprite has been removed because it never displayed correctly anyway (it would be distorted by the game scale), it will be bought back in a future version by way of a custom orientation state.
• ArcadePhysics.overlap has been updated so that the Body.overlapX/Y properties are set to the amount the two bodies overlapped by. Previously they were zero and only populated during the separation phase, but now the data is available for just overlap checks as well. You can then use these values in your ovrelap callback as required - note that they are changed for every check, so a Sprite overlap tested against 10 other sprites will have the overlapX/Y values updated 10 times in a single collision pass, so you can only safely use the values in the callback (#641)
• Cache.getImage now returns null if the requested image wasn't found.
• BitmapData now returns a reference to itself from all of its drawing related methods, allowing for easy function chaining.
• The default size of a BitmapData if no width/height is given has been changed from 100x100 to 256x256.
• Phaser.Text.destroy will now destroy the base texture by default (#1162)
• BitmapData.copyPixels is now called BitmapData.copyRect and the method signature has changed.
• BitmapData.draw method signature has changed significantly.
• Phaser.Canvas.getSmoothingEnabled will return true if the given context has image smoothing enabled, otherwise false.
• Math.numberArrayStep is a new method that allows you to return an array of numbers from min to max including an optional step parameter (thanks @codevinsky #1170)
• Removed redundant if check from StateManager.preUpdate (thanks @FedeOmoto #1173)

• Fixed the resolution uniform type in the SampleFilter (thanks @VictoryRice #1137)
• Calling P2.Body.destroy or ArcadePhysics.Body.destroy wouldn't null the parent sprite body, causing it to error in the next update (thanks @jonathanhooker #1077)
• BitmapFonts are now correctly added to the Cache._bitmapFont array and returned via Cache.getBitmapFont (thanks @prudolfs #1076)
• InputHandler docs updated to avoid Pointer data-type confusion (#1097)
• If you used a single Game configuration object and didn't specify the enableDebug property it would crash on Debug.preUpdate (thanks @luizbills #1053)
• The P2.World.postBroadphaseHandler now checks if the returned pairs array is empty or not before processing it (thanks @wayfu #934)
• Tilemap.hasTile now checks the Tile.index value and will return false if the index is -1 (i.e. a non-active tile) (thanks @elgansayer #859)
• Sound.restart used to cause the Sound to double-up if it was already playing when called. Now correctly stops the sound before restarting it (thanks @wombatbuddy #1136)
• GamePad axis detection now works again properly in Firefox (#1035)
• GamepadButton.justPressed and justReleased now correctly report if the button has just been pressed or released (thanks @padpadpad #1019)
• TilemapParser.getEmptyData now correct adds an empty bodies array into layers. This fixes an issue where p2 couldn't convert a csv map into collision tiles (thanks @sru #845)
• CocoonJS doesn't support mouse wheel events so they've been moved into a conditional check (thanks @videlais #1151)
• ScaleManager window.resize handler would constantly dispatch enterPortrait and enterLandscape events on window resizing, regardless if it actually entered that orientation or not.
• Added Sound._muteVolume which stops Firefox and IE9 crashing if you try to unmute a sound that hasn't yet been muted, which can also happen as a result of a game visibility change (thanks @osmanzeki #1108 #1123)
• P2.World.getSprings used to return an empty array, but now returns all the Springs in the world (#1134)
• Tween.generateData would skip the end values in the data array. They are now included as the object in the final array element.
• Rectangle.bottom setter swapped the order of the calculation (thanks @JakeCoxon #1165)
• Phaser.Text wouldn't render the text to its local canvas if you passed the text on the constructor and didn't add it to the display list. If a string is given it now updates the local canvas on creation.
• Signal.removeAll would ignore the context parameter and remove all bindings regardless (thanks @alect #1168)
• P2.Body.addCapsule didn't use to pass the radius value through pxm, but now does so you have to specify it in pixels, not meters.

• Sprite.loadTexture has a new optional stopAnimation boolean parameter which will halt the currently running animation (if any) after changing the texture (based on #1029).
• Animation.updateFrameData allows you to load a new FrameData object into an existing animation, even if currently running (based on #1029)
• AnimationManager.loadFrameData will now update all existing Animations to use the newly loaded FrameData (based on #1029)
• Sprite.loadTexture will store the smoothed property of the Sprite and re-apply it once the new texture is loaded.
• Group.checkAll allows you to check if the same property exists across all children of the Group and is set to the given value (thanks @codevinsky #1013)
• Group.checkProperty allows you to check if the property exists on the given child of the Group and is set to the value specified (thanks @codevinsky #1013)
• Phaser.Utils.setProperty will set an Objects property regardless of depth (thanks @codevinsky #1013)
• Phaser.Utils.setProperty will set an Objects property regardless of depth (thanks @codevinsky #1013)

• Added missing Loader.onPackComplete Signal (thanks @mjeffery #1007)
• QuadTree leveling - Rather than level++ which changes the current nodes level, the subnodes should get the current nodes level+1 (thanks @devinb83 #1018)
• Prevented objects with pixel perfect checks from over-riding other higher priority ID items (#983)
• Group.create was not creating with p2 debug flag (thanks @Dumtard #1014)
• World.wrap when using the bounds of the object wouldn't adjust the bounds correctly, meaning wrapping outside the camera failed (thanks @jackrugile #1020)
• Pixi updated worldTransform from an Array to an Object and Phaser Image, BitmapText, Text and Graphics were still using array access to populate the world property, giving it incorrect results (thanks @alvinsight)
• If you add a Tween to the TweenManager and then immediately stop it, it will still exist in the TweenManager (thanks @gilangcp #1032)
• AnimationManager does not update currentFrame on play until second frame (thanks @Dumtard #1041)
• Animation now guards against _frameData being null (thanks @lucbloom #1033)
• Tilemap.swap now accurately swaps from A to B and from B to A (thanks @noidexe #1034)
• BitmapData.resize fixed to update the crop property too, resolves issues with images getting cut off with BitmapData.load.
• OrientationSprite fix as it's not using PIXI.TextureCache anymore (thanks @DarkDev- #1036)

Version 2.0.6 - "Jornhill" - 10th July 2014

Significant Internal Changes

• The PIXI.TextureCache global array is no longer used internally for storing Pixi Texture files. It's not actually a requirement of Pixi to use this and we were running into various issues with texture conflicts in DragonBones tests and issues with shared texture frames between Sprites. It meant we couldn't crop a sprite without cropping all instances unless we created a new texture frame at run-time, which as you can imagine is a huge overhead if you then want to crop an animated Sprite.

After talking with Mat at GoodBoyDigital about the issue it was his idea to just not use the TextureCache at all, and let each Sprite have its own frame. So this is the direction we've taken. We didn't save this for the 2.1 release as it doesn't actually alter the Phaser API at all, but it does change how things are working internally. So if you've got game code hooked directly into the TextureCache you need to be aware of this change before updating to 2.0.6.

• The way in which Sprite.crop works has been changed. It will now adjust the dimensions of the sprite itself, remaining at the sprites previous x/y coordinates. Please be aware of this if you use cropped sprites in your game. The change was worth it though as it's significantly more powerful as a result.

Updates

• Merged Pixi 1.6.0 with Phaser - all of the lovely new Pixi features are in, like complex Graphics objects and masking.
• TypeScript definitions fixes and updates (thanks @clark-stevenson and @Phaiax)
• Documentation fixes (thanks @kay-is #941)
• BitmapData.draw can now also take a Phaser.Sprite, Phaser.Image or BitmapData object as a source type. As a result BitmapData.drawSprite is now depcreated.
• BitmapData.alphaMask can now also take a Phaser.Sprite, Phaser.Image or BitmapData object as a source type.
• BitmapData.alphaMask has 2 new optional parameters: sourceRect and maskRect to give more fine-grained control over where the source and mask are drawn and their size
• BitmapData.alphaMask 'mask' parameter is now optional, if not given it will use itself as the mask.
• BitmapData.alphaMask now calls BitmapData.update after running.
• BitmapData.draw now has two optional parameters: width and height, to let you stretch the image being drawn if needed.
• Group.destroy now removes any set filters (thanks @Jmaharman fix #844)
• RetroFont charsPerRow paramters is now optional. If not given it will take the image width and divide it by the characterWidth value.
• RetroFont now uses Phaser.scaleModes.NEAREST by default for its RenderTexture to preserve scaling.
• Loader.tilemap has renamed the mapURL parameter to url and mapData to data to keep it consistent with the other Loader methods.
• Loader.physics has renamed the dataURL parameter to url and jsonData to data to keep it consistent with the other Loader methods.
• Stage no longer creates the Phaser.Canvas object, but Game itself does in the setupRenderer method.
• Canvas.create has deprecated the noCocoon parameter as it's no longer required. The parameter is still in the signature, but no longer used in the method.
• Time.add allows you to add an existing Phaser.Timer to the timer pool (request #864)
• Emitter.start has a new parameter: forceQuantity which will force the quantity of a flow of particles to be the given value (request #853)
• Sound.pause will no longer fire a Sound.onStop signal, and the pause values are set before the onPause signal is dispatched (thanks @AnderbergE, fix #868)
• Swapped to using escaped Unicode characters for the console output.
• Frame.setTrim no longer modifies the Frame width and height values.
• AnimationParser doesn't populate the Pixi.TextureCache for every frame any longer. Each display object has its own texture property instead.
• Removed the cacheKey parameters from the AnimationParser methods as they're no longer used.
• Loader.isLoading is set to false if the filelist size is zero.
• Sound.externalNode has had the input property dropped from it, bringing it back in line with the AudioNode spec (thanks @villetou, #840)
• The StateManager has a preRenderCallback option, which checks for a preRender function existing on the State, but it was never called. Have decided to add this in, so the core Game loop now calls state.preRender right before the renderer runs (thanks @AnderbergE #869)
• Game.onBlur and Game.onFocus events are now dispatched regardless if Stage.disableVisibilityChange is true or false, so you can respond to these events without your game automatically pausing or resuming (#911)
• Image has been heavily refactored to make use of common code in Phaser.Sprite, cutting the file size down significantly.
• When using the non-minified version of Phaser it will throw a console.warn if you give an invalid texture key to a Sprite, Image or TileSprite (thanks @lucbloom, #990)

CocoonJS Specific Updates

• Wrapped all touch, keyboard, mouse and fullscreen events that CocoonJS doesn't support in conditional checks to avoid Warnings.
• The SoundManager no longer requires a touch to unlock it, defaults to unlocked.
• Resolved issue where Cocoon won't render a scene in Canvas mode if there is only one Sprite/Image on it.

New Features

• BitmapData.extract has a new parameter that lets you control if the destination BitmapData is resized before the pixels are copied.
• BitmapData.extract has 4 new parameters: r2, g2, b2, a2 which let you re-color the extract pixels as they are drawn to the new BitmapData.
• BitmapData.load will take a game object or string and resize the BitmapData to match it and then draw the pixels in.
• Keyboard.addCallbacks now has a new parameter for keypress event capture.
• Keyboard.pressEvent stores the most recent DOM keypress event.
• Keyboard.processKeyDown now runs the callback after all the objects have been created and/or updated.
• Keyboard.processKeyUp now runs the callback after all the objects have been created and/or updated.
• Phaser.Keyboard.lastChar will return the string value of the last key pressed.
• Phaser.Keyboard.lastKey will return the most recently pressed Key object.
• RetroFont.updateOffset allows you to modify the offsetX/Y values used by the font during rendering.
• ArcadePhysics.Body has a new boolean property enable. If false the body won't be checked for any collision or overlaps, or have its pre or post update methods called. Use this for easy toggling of physics bodies without having to destroy or re-create the Body object itself.
• BitmapData.addToWorld will create a new Phaser.Image object, assign the BitmapData to be its texture, add it to the world then return it.
• BitmapData.copyPixels now accepts a Sprite, Image, BitmapData, HTMLImage or string as its source.
• Loader.pack will allow you to load in a new Phaser Asset Pack JSON file. An Asset Pack is a specially structured file that allows you to define all assets for your game in an external file. The file can be split into sections, allowing you to control loading a specific set of files from it. An example JSON file can be found in the resources\Asset Pack JSON Format folder and examples of use in the Phaser Examples repository.
• Loader.totalQueuedPacks returns the number of Asset Packs in the queue.
• Loader.totalLoadedPacks returns the number of Asset Packs already loaded.
• Emitter.explode is a new short-cut for exploding a fixed quantity of particles at once.
• Emitter.flow is a new short-cut for creating a flow of particles based on the given frequency.
• Sprite.crop (and Image.crop) has been completely overhauled. You can now crop animated sprites (sprite sheet and texture atlas), you can define the x/y crop offset and the crop rectangle is exposed in the Sprite.cropRect property.
• Sprite.updateCrop is available if you wish to update an externally referenced crop rectangle.
• Sprites and Images now have their own textures objects, they are no longer references to those stored in the global Pixi.TextureCache. This allows you to redefine the texture frame dynamically without messing up any other Sprites in your game, such as via cropping. They still share global Base Textures, so image references are kept to a minimum.
• Sprite.resetFrame will revert the Sprites texture frame back to its defaults dimensions. This is called when you call Sprite.crop with no rectangle, to reset the crop effect, but can be userful in other situations so we've left it as a public method.
• TilemapLayers can now be used with an unbounded camera (a camera that can move beyond the world boundaries). Currently, when an unbounded camera moves outside of the world, tilemaps start acting weird because they only render themselves strictly within the world limits. With this change, the tilemap will continue scrolling and show empty space beyond its edge (thanks @jotson #851)
• TilemapLayer.wrap property - if true the map is rendered as if it is on the surface of a toroid (donut) instead of a plane. This allows for games that seamlessly scroll from one edge to the opposite edge of the world without noticing the transition. Note that the World size must match the Map size (thanks @jotson #851)
• Added PlayStation 3 controller button mappings to Phaser.Gamepad (thanks @wayfu)
• GamepadButton.destroy method added. Called automatically by SinglePad when a controller is disconnected.
• Added Math.factorial (thanks @alvinsight, #940)
• Full Mouse Wheel support added, with new constants and callbacks for mouse wheel movement (thanks @woutercommandeur, #959)
• A Phaser version of the Pixi PixelateFilter was added by @paperkettle #939)
• TileMap.setPreventRecalculate allows you to turn on / off the recalculation of tile faces for tile collision, which is handy when modifying large portions of a map to avoid slow-down (thanks @sivael, #951)
• Group.add has a new optional boolean parameter: silent. If set to true the child will not dispatch its onAddedToGroup event.
• Group.addAt has a new optional boolean parameter: silent. If set to true the child will not dispatch its onAddedToGroup event.
• Group.remove has a new optional boolean parameter: silent. If set to true the child will not dispatch its onRemovedFromGroup event.
• Group.removeBetween has a new optional boolean parameter: silent. If set to true the children will not dispatch their onRemovedFromGroup events.
• Group.removeAll has a new optional boolean parameter: silent. If set to true the children will not dispatch their onRemovedFromGroup events.
• Internal child movements in Group (such as bringToTop) now uses the new silent parameter to avoid the child emitting incorrect Group addition and deletion events.
• Camera.updateTarget has had a make-over and now is a lot smoother under certain conditions (thanks @tjkopena, fix #966)
• Signal.removeAll now has a new context parameter. If specified only listeners matching the given context are removed (thanks @lucbloom for the idea, #880)
• Animation.next will advance to the next frame in the animation, even if it's not currently playing. You can optionally define the number of frames to advance, but the default is 1. This is also aliased from the AnimationManager, so you can do Sprite.animations.next().
• Animation.previous will rewind to the previous frame in the animation, even if it's not currently playing. You can optionally define the number of frames to rewind, but the default is 1. This is also aliased from the AnimationManager, so you can do Sprite.animations.previous().
• You can now debug render Ninja Physics AABB and Circle objects (thanks @psalaets, #972)
• Phaser.Utils.mixin will mix the source object into the destination object, returning the newly modified destination object.
• You can now use game.add.plugin from the GameObjectFactory (thanks @alvinsight, #978)
• Color.getWebRGB will now accept either an Object or numeric color value.
• Rectangle.randomX will return a random value located within the horizontal bounds of the Rectangle.
• Rectangle.randomY will return a random value located within the vertical bounds of the Rectangle.
• Using a Game configuration object you can now specify the value of the preserveDrawingBuffer flag for the WebGL renderer. By default this is disabled for performance reasons. But if you need to be able to take screen shots of your WebGL games using toDataUrl on the game canvas then you'll need to set this to true (#987)
• Added options to disable horizontal and vertical world wrapping individually (thanks @jackrugile, #988)
• You can now prevent the Debug class from being created or booted by using the Game configuration setting: enableDebug. By default it is true, set to false to prevent the class from being created. Please note you are responsible for checking if this class exists before calling it, but you can do that via if (game.debug) { ... } (request #984)

Bug Fixes

• Sprite.alive property now explicitly defined on the Sprite prototype (thanks @lewster32, #841)
• BitmapData.resize now properly updates the baseTexture and texture dimensions.
• Fixed Gamepad issue that incorrectly checked non-webkit prefix gamepads.
• Phaser.RenderTexture incorrectly passed the scaleMode to Pixi.RenderTexture, causing the renderer to error.
• Sprite animation data wasn't reset when going from a sprite sheet to a single frame in Sprite.loadTexture (thanks @lucbloom, fix #850)
• Timer.ms would report the game time ms value if the Timer hadn't yet been started, instead of 0.
• Timer.seconds would report the game time value if the Timer hadn't yet been started, instead of 0.
• A Canvas style set from a game config object used an incorrect property (thanks @TatumCreative, fix #861)
• Phaser.Line.intersectsPoints fixed for floating point inaccuracy (thanks @woutercommandeur, fix #865 and #937)
• Sound.destroy(true) would call remove on the SoundManager, which in turn would throw a TypeError as it tried to remove the sound events twice (thanks @AnderbergE, fix #874)
• When creating a Sprite or Image using a texture atlas it would set the frame twice, once in loadTexture and once when the initial frame is set. This has been reduced down to just a single setting now.
• BitmapData.getPixel fix for pixels with zero red value (thanks @lstor fix #894)
• If you call ArcadePhysics.collide on a Sprite vs. a Tilemap and provide a custom processCallback, the result was being ignored and the sprite was being separated regardless (thanks @aivins fix #891 #890)
• ArcadePhysics.Body.setSize if you set offset x/y values previously and then passed zero values they would be ignored (thanks @casensiom fix #889)
• InputHandler.checkPointerDown checks and docs updated (thanks @lewster32, fix method #936)
• Body.enable only exists in Arcade physics, so moved conditions concerning checking that into the Body (thanks @Phaiax, fix #961)
• Forces packPixel result into a uint32 (thanks @Phaiax, fix #960)
• The Bottom Wall in non 0,0 aligned P2 world was incorrectly set (thanks @Phaiax, fix #952)
• AnimationManager could sometimes return null (thanks @TatumCreative, #910)
• P2.Body.removeShape didn't call shapeChanged (thanks @TatumCreative, #910)
• Sound.onDecoded signal was never dispatched (thanks @j0hnskot, #906)
• stopFullScreen has been changed to run against document instead of the canvas since the cancelFullScreen method is created on the document (thanks @j0hnskot, #863)
• Calling reset on Sprite with a P2 body can result in body.data.world == null. Calling addToWorld() would previously not check the _toRemove array, which could, if the timing were right, result in a Sprite being revived but then removed from the P2 World -- the result of this being the Sprites data would be in a mixed state causing it to appear visually but not function in the world (thanks @jonkelling, fix #917 #925)
• Input.SinglePad was fixed so that the rawpad button array supports Windows and Linux (thank @renatodarrigo, fix #958)
• Key.duration wasn't set to zero after a Key.reset (thanks @DrHackenstein, #932)
• Device.mobileSafari was no longer detecting Mobile Safari, now fixed (thanks @Zammy, #927)
• Rectangle.right when set would set the new width to be Rectangle.x + the value given. However the value given should be a new Right coordinate, so the width calculation has been adjusted to compensate (thanks @cryptonomicon, #849)
• Calling Tween.stop from inside a Tween update callback would still cause the tween onComplete event to fire (thanks @eguneys, #924)
• Group.bringToTop (and consequently Sprite.bringToTop) no longer removes the child from the InputManager if enabled (thanks @BinaryMoon, fix #928)
• Group.sendToBack (and consequently Sprite.sendToBack) no longer removes the child from the InputManager if enabled.
• When adding a new Animation to a Sprite it would incorrectly reset the current Sprite frame to the first frame of the animation sequence, it is now left un-touched until you call play on the animation.
• Tween.from now returns a reference to the tweened object in the same way that Tween.to does (thanks @b-ely, fix #976)
• Re-ordered the parameters of Phaser.Physics.Arcade.Body.render which is used by Debug.body so it matches correctly (thanks @psalaets, #971 #970)
• Removed hasOwnProperty check from Tween.from because it breaks on extended or inherited Game Objects.

• Emitter.makeParticles updated to use Array.isArray() check on the key/frame values, so non-string objects can be passed in (thanks @AnderbergE, fix #786)
• Tilemap.createFromObjects will now force the creation of the property again even if it doesn't exist (regression fix from 2.0.4)
• Phaser.Line.intersectsPoints fixed by properly checking the boundaries (thanks @woutercommandeur, fix #790)

• Sound.play now returns the Sound object (thanks @AnderbergE, fix #802)
• Device Silk UA test updated to avoid Safari conflict (thanks @jflowers45, fix #810)
• Sound.stop on Samsung S4 would randomly throw a DOM error. Wrapped the audio stop in a try/catch (thanks FSDaniel)

• Timer class updated so that code-resumed pauses don't mess up the internal _pausedTotal value (thanks @joelrobichaud, fix #814)
• Timer class when paused by code after a game-level pause wouldn't set the codepaused flag (thanks @joelrobichaud, fix #814)
• Stage.backgroundColor now properly accepts hex #RRGGBB and color values 0xRRGGBB again (fix #785)
• Color.getRGB would return incorrect color components if a color value without alpha was given, now works with both 0xRRGGBB and 0xAARRGGBB.
• Color.getWebRGB now works regardless if you give an 0xRRGGBB or 0xAARRGGBB color value.

• RenderTexture.resize would throw WebGL errors due to an issue with Pixi.RenderTexture. Fixed in Phaser and submitted code to Pixi.
• Group.hasProperty fixed to not use hasOwnProperty, but a series of in checks (thanks @mgiuffrida for the idea, #829)
• Tilemap.removeTile sets tiles to null but should set to index of -1 (thanks @draklaw, fix #835)

Version 2.0.4 - "Mos Shirare" - 29th April 2014

Updates

• Updated to Pixi.js 1.5.3
• Updated to latest p2.js - all commits from 0.5.0 to Apr 27th 2014.
• TypeScript definitions fixes and updates (thanks @clark-stevenson @metrofun @killalau)
• Timer has removed all use of local temporary vars in the core update loop.
• The Input.reset hard reset parameter is now passed down to the Keyboard and Key reset methods.
• AnimationManager.destroy now iterates through child animations calling destroy on all of them, avoiding a memory leak (thanks stauzs)
• AnimationManager.play will now call Animation.stop on the current animation before switching to the new one (thanks @nihakue, #713)
• ArcadePhysics.Body.phase is checked in postUpdate to prevent it from being called multiple times in a single frame.
• Group.setProperty will now check if the property exists before setting it, this applies to Group.setAll and anything else using setProperty internally.
• QuadTree.retrieve now checks to see if the given Sprite has a body before carrying on.
• ArcadePhysics.collideSpriteVsGroup checks if Sprite has a body before carrying on, now safely skips sub-groups or other non-Sprite group children.
• Group.remove now checks the child to see if it's a member of the root Group before removing it, otherwise Pixi throws an Error.
• The Emitter no longer checks if minParticleScale = maxParticleScale for the scale check, allowing for fixed scale particles again.
• The PIXI.AbstractFilter is now included in the Phaser Pixi build by default, allowing for easier use of external Pixi Filters.
• All Game Objects have a new property: destroyPhase (boolean) which is true if the object is in the process of being destroyed, otherwise false.
• If Tween.yoyo was true but repeat was 0 then it wouldn't yoyo. Now if yoyo is set, but not repeat, the repeat count gets set to 1 (thanks @hilts-vaughan, fix #744)
• RandomDataGenerator.integerInRange uses a new method of rounding the value to an integer to avoid distribution probability issues (thanks PhaserFan)
• Updated the Device little / big endianess check.
• Time has been updated so that physicsElapsed can never be zero (falls back to 1/60), also fixes p2 elapsed time bug (thanks @georgiee, fix #758)
• Input and Pointer now use the new ArrayList instead of a LinkedList, which resolve list item removable during callback issues.
• Input.reset no longer resets every interactive item it knows of, because they are removed during the destroy phase and can now persist between States if needed.
• Blank Tilemaps no longer create null tiles, but instead create Tile objects with an index of -1 which can be replaced and updated like any other tile.
• Tilemap.addTilesetImage will now raise a console.warn if you specify an invalid tileset key and not create the tileset rather than pick the default set.
• Math.smoothstep and Math.smootherstep have been updated to work regardless if a is > or < b (thanks @gre, fix #772)
• Text.updateText now sets the lineCap to round to avoid occassional font glitching issues in Chrome.
• Loader now uses XDomainRequest in IE9 to load JSON data to help with CORS issues.

New Features

• New Phaser Project Template specifically for requireJS in the resources/Project Templates folder (many thanks @ashatch)
• Loader now has an onFileStart event you can listen for (thanks @codevinsky, #705)
• Group.classType allows you to change the type of object that Group.create or createMultiple makes from Phaser.Sprite to your own custom class.
• Timer.clearPendingEvents will purge any events marked for deletion, this is run automatically at the start of the update loop.
• Device.crosswalk detects if your game is running under Intels Crosswalk XDK.
• Keyboard.reset has a new hard parameter which controls the severity of the reset. A soft reset doesn't remove any callbacks or event listeners.
• Key.reset has a new hard parameter which controls the severity of the reset. A soft reset doesn't remove any callbacks or event listeners.
• InputManager.resetLocked - If the Input Manager has been reset locked then all calls made to InputManager.reset, such as from a State change, are ignored.
• Group.resetCursor will reset the Group cursor back to the start of the group, or to the given index value.
• World.wrap will take a game object and if its x/y coordinates fall outside of the world bounds it will be repositioned on the opposite side, for a wrap-around effect.
• Device.support32bit is a new boolean that sets if the context supports 32bit pixel manipulation using array buffer views or not.

• Emitter now has minParticleAlpha and maxParticleAlpha values for setting a random alpha on emitted particles.
• Emitter.particleAnchor allows you to control the anchor of emitted Particles. Defaults to 0.5 (same as before) but now under your control.
• Emitter.setAlpha allows you to quickly set the min and max alpha values.
• Emitter.setScale allows you to quickly set the min and max scale values.
• Emitter.blendMode lets you set the blendMode of any emitted Particle (needs a browser that supports canvas blend modes)
• Group.customSort allows you to sort the Group children based on your own sort function.
• Emitter.setScale has a new 'rate' parameter which allows particles to change in scale over time, using any Easing value or timescale.
• Emitter.setScale now allows you to scale the x and y axis of the particles independently.
• Emitter.setAlpha has a new 'rate' parameter which allows particles to change alpha over time, using any Easing value or timescale.
• Emitter.bringToTop and Emitter.sendToBack are booleans that let you optionally set the display order of the Particle when emitted.
• Emitter now calls the Phaser.Particle.onEmit function, which is left empty for you to override and add in custom behaviours.
• p2.World has a new contactMaterial property, which can be configured like a normal P2 Contact Material and is applied when two bodies hit that don't have defined materials.
• Group.remove has a new 'destroy' parameter (false by default), which will optionally call destroy on the item removed from the Group.
• Group.removeAll has a new 'destroy' parameter (false by default), which will optionally call destroy on the items removed from the Group.
• Group.removeBetween has a new 'destroy' parameter (false by default), which will optionally call destroy on the items removed from the Group.
• @georgiee created a new P2.FixtureList class to allow easy access the fixtures of a created P2 Body:

This is especially useful in combination with PhysicsEditor and P2.Body#addPhaserPolygon.

You can configure your whole collision grouping in PhysicsEditor and then you can later change the mask bits easily with this class. You can also access parts (groups) and named fixtures by a group index or a fixture key - both properties can be set in PhysicsEditor with the custom phaser exporter.

Use cases:

• Configure collision bits in PhysicsEditor and you want to change them later.
• Place a sensor in your fixture and access this single fixture later (to disable temporarily)
• Create a small body with threes fixtures (circle, circle + polygon/convex). Now you want that the polygon part to behave like rubber and assign a bouncing (restitution > 1) material. Assign a fixture key in PhysicsEditor and access the fixture like this. (see the image for the fixture I described)

• Fixed Grunt script that stopped the P2 constraint classes from building properly.
• World.destroy incorrectly clashed with the Group.destroy method it over-rode, renamed to World.shutdown and updated StateManager accordingly.

• Removed State.destroy empty method and replaced with State.shutdown, as that is what the StateManager expects (fix #586)
• P2.removeBody will check if the body is part of the world before removing, this avoids a TypeError from the p2 layer.
• Tilemap.createFromObjects has a new parameter: adjustY, which is true by default. Because Tiled uses a bottom-left coordinate system Phaser used to set the Sprite anchor to 0,1 to compensate. If adjustY is true it now reduces the y value by the object height instead.
• Swapped the order of the _pollGamepads gamepads check, to stop the Chrome 'webkitGamepads is deprecated' error in the console.

• ArcadePhysics.Body now checks the ArcadePhysics.World bounds, not the game bounds.
• ArcadePhysics.Body has reverted to the 1.1.3 method of preUpdate, so you can now position sprites with x/y, drag them, etc, regardless of the Body.moves flag (issue #606)
• ArcadePhysics.World now has setBounds and setBoundsToWorld methods, which are called automatically on world resizing.
• ArcadePhysics.Body no longer sets the offset to match the anchor.
• The StateManager is now responsible for clearing down input, timers, tweens, physics, camera and the World display list.
• Removed the use of Int16Array from all Game Objects, swapped for standard Array. Phaser now runs on Android 2.x and IE9 again (fix #590)
• When creating a Sprite (via Group.create or directly) with exists = false and a P2 body, the body is not added to the world.
• Every Input class now checks to see if it has already been started. If so it doesn't add the listeners again unless they have been nulled.
• Lots of fixes to the TypeScript definitions file (thanks as always to clark-stevenson for his tireless work on these)
• Emitters now bring the particle they are about to emit to the top of the Group before doing so. Avoids particles hidden behind others.
• ArcadePhysics.Body.setSize corrected to take the parameters as positive, not negative values.
• ArcadePhysics.World.seperate will now check gravity totals to determine separation order. You can set World.forceX to true to always separate on X first and skip this check.

• ArcadePhysics.World now has a checkCollision object which can be used to toggle collision against the 4 walls of its bounds.
• Sprite.events.onEnterBounds added. This is dispatched if the Sprite leaves the bounds but then returns. The opposite of onOutOfBounds.
• Timer.removeAll will remove and clear down all events, but keeps the Timer running.
• Group.setAllChildren recursively checks if its children are Groups, and if so recursively applies the value to their children as well (feature #589)
• Time.deltaCap lets you set a cap for the delta timer. It defaults to zero (which is disabled). If you use ArcadePhysics it gets set to 0.2, but you can modify as needed.
• ArcadePhysics.Body has a deltaMax object, which allows you to cap the delta applied to the position to +- this value.
• ArcadePhysics.Body now checks the Sprite scale automatically and adjusts the body size accordingly (fix #608)
• Emitter.particleClass can now be set to any object that extends Phaser.Sprite, which will be emitted instead of a regular Sprite.
• There is a brand new PhysicsEditor export script specifically for Phaser (in the resources folder), and new p2 polygon parsing functions thanks to georgiee.

Version 2.0.0 - "Aes Sedai" - March 13th 2014

There is an extensive Migration Guide available for those converting from Phaser 1.x to 2.x. In the guide we detail the API breaking changes and approach to our new physics system.

New Features

• Phaser.Image is a brand new display object perfect for logos, backgrounds, etc. You can scale, rotate, tint, blend an get input events from an Image, but it has no animation or physics body.
• You can now use the hitArea property on Sprites and Image objects. hitArea can be a geometry object (Rectangle, Circle, Polygon, Ellipse) and is used in pointerOver checks.
• InputManager.getLocalPosition(displayObject, pointer, output) will return the local coordinates of the specified displayObject and pointer.
• InputManager.hitTest will test for pointer hits against a Sprite/Image, its hitArea (if set) or any of its children.
• Text has lots of new methods to help style it: Text.fill, Text.align, Text.stroke, etc.
• Text now works happily with font names with spaces in them.
• Text.setShadow applies a drop shadow to the Text being rendered. Control the x, y, color and blur.
• Text.lineSpacing allows you to set additional spacing between each line that is rendered.
• Text.inputEnabled allows you to enable all input events over Text objects: dragging, clicking, etc - anything that works on a Sprite works on Text now too.
• Phaser.Ellipse added. A fully compatible port of the PIXI.Ellipse class, can be used in Sprite/Image hitArea tests.
• Phaser.Polygon added. A fully compatible port of the PIXI.Polygon class, can be used in Sprite/Image hitArea tests.
• InputHandler.pixelPerfectOver - performs a pixel perfect check to see if any pointer is over the current object (warning: very expensive!)
• InputHandler.pixelPerfectClick - performs a pixel perfect check but only when the pointer touches/clicks on the current object.
• TileSprite can now use a frame from a texture atlas or a sprite sheet.
• TileSprites can now be animated. See new example :)
• TileSprites have a new method: autoScroll(x, y) which sets an automatic scroll running (until stopped with TileSprite.stopScroll).
• BitmapText now uses the new XML parser which should work under CocoonJS without clashes.
• BitmapText signature changed so you can support fonts with spaces in their names.
• Loader.bitmapFont now has 2 extra parameters: xSpacing and ySpacing. These allow you to add extra spacing to each letter or line of the font.
• Added the new RetroFont class. This is for rendering fixed-width bitmap fonts into an Image object. It's a texture you can apply to a Sprite/Image.
• Added Cache.updateFrameData which is really useful for swapping FrameData blocks in the cache.
• Loader.physics now lets you load Lime + Corona JSON Physics data, which can be used with Body.loadPolygon and Body.loadData.
• Cache.addPhysicsData and Cache.getPhysicsData allow you to store parsed JSON physics data in the cache, for sharing between Bodies.
• fixedToCamera now works across all display objects. When enabled it will fix at its current x/y coordinate, but can be changed via cameraOffset.
• fixedToCamrea now works for Groups as well :) You can fix a Group to the camera and it will influence its children.
• Tilemap.createCollisionObjects will parse Tiled data for objectgroups and convert polyline instances into physics objects you can collide with in the world.
• Loader can now load JSON files specifically (game.load.json) and they are parsed and stored in the Game.Cache. Retrieve with game.cache.getJSON(key).
• TileSprites can now receive full Input events, dragging, etc and be positioned in-world and fixed to cameras.
• The StateManager now looks for a function called 'resumed' which is called when a game un-pauses.
• Key.onHold added. This event is dispatched every time the browser sends a keydown event and the key is already being held down.
• Stage.smoothed allows you to set if sprites will be smoothed when rendered. Set to false if you're using pixel art in your game. Default is true. Works in Canvas and WebGL.
• Sprite.smoothed and Image.smoothed allows you to set per-Sprite smoothing, perfect if you just want to keep a few sprites smoothed (or not)
• StateManager.start can now have as many parameters as you like. The order is: start(key, clearWorld, clearCache, ...) - they are passed to State.init() (NOT create!)
• Loader.script now has callback (and callbackContext) parameters, so you can specify a function to run once the JS has been injected into the body.
• Phaser.Timer.stop has a new parameter: clearEvents (default true), if true all the events in Timer will be cleared, otherwise they will remain (fixes #383)
• All GameObjects now have a 'destroyChildren' boolean as a parameter to their destroy method. It's default is true and the value propogates down its children.
• Pixi GrayFilter ported over (thanks nickryall #404)
• Animation.speed added. You can now change the animation speed on the fly, without re-starting the animation (feature request #458)
• Brand new Grunt task - creates each core library as its own file and a combined phaser.js.
• New build script now cleanly splits Phaser, Pixi and p2 so they are each UMD wrapped and each available in the global scope (now more requireJS friendly!).
• phaser-no-libs.js allows you to use your own version of p2.js or pixi.js with Phaser. Warning: This is totally unsupported. If you hit bugs, you fix them yourself.
• Group.sendToBottom(child) is the handy opposite of Group.bringToTop()
• Group.moveUp(child) will move a child up the display list, swapping with the child above it.
• Group.moveDown(child) will move a child down the display list, swapping with the child below it.
• Device.windowsPhone is now tested for.
• The Debug panel now works in WebGL mode. Pay attention to the warning at the top of the Debug docs (feature request #499)
• You can now create blank Tilemaps and then populate them with data later.
• A single Animation object now has 3 new events: onStart, onLoop and onComplete.
• Animation.loopCount holds the number of times the animation has looped since it last started.
• Tween.generateData(frameRate) allows you to generate tween data into an array, which can then be used however you wish (see new examples)
• Group.xy(index, x, y) allows you to set the x and y coordinates of a Group child at the given index.
• Group.reverse() reverses the display order of all children in the Group.
• Tweens are now bound to their own TweenManager, not always the global game one. So you can create your own managers now (for you clark :)
• ScaleManager.fullScreenTarget allows you to change the DOM element that the fullscreen API is called on (feature request #526)
• Merged Georges p2 BodyDebug and reformatted for jshint pass. Looks awesome :)
• ArcadePhysics.Body has a new gravityScale property, which is a modifier multiplied against the world gravity value on a Body.
• Line.coordinatesOnLine will return all coordinates on the line using Bresenhams line algorithm.
• Line now has x, y, width, height, top, bottom, left and right properties, so you can effectively get its bounds.
• TilemapLayer.getRayCastTiles will let you get all tiles that hit the given line for further processing.

Updates

• Massive thanks to clark-stevenson for doing an amazing job update the TypeScript definitions file.
• Debug.renderRectangle has a new parameter: filled. If true it renders as with fillRect, if false strokeRect.
• Phaser.AnimationParser now sets the trimmed data directly for Pixi Texture frames. Tested across JSON Hash, JSON Data, Sprite Sheet and XML.
• Game.add.renderTexture now has the addToCache parameter. If set the texture will be stored in Game.Cache and can be retrieved with Cache.getTexture(key).
• Game.add.bitmapData now has the addToCache parameter. If set the texture will be stored in Game.Cache and can be retrieved with Cache.getBitmapData(key).
• The InputManager now sets the canvas style cursor to 'inherit' instead of 'default'.
• World.reset now calls Camera.reset which sends the camera back to 0,0 and un-follows any object it may have been tracking.
• Added hostname: '*' to the grunt-connect in Gruntfile.js (fixes #426)
• Device, Canvas and GamePad classes all updated for better CocoonJS support (thanks Videlais)
• BitmapData.alphaMask will draw the given image onto a BitmapData using an image as an alpha mask.
• The new GameObjectCreator (which you access via game.make or State.make) lets you easily create an object but NOT add it to the display list.
• TilemapParser will now throw a warning if the tileset image isn't the right size for the tile dimensions.
• We now force IE11 into Canvas mode to avoid a Pixi bug with pre-multiplied alpha. Will remove once that is fixed, sorry, but it's better than no game at all, right? :(
• Loader.setPreloadSprite() will now set sprite.visible = true once the crop has been applied. Should help avoid issues (#430) on super-slow connections.
• Updated the way the page visibility is checked, should now be more compatible across more browsers.
• Phaser.Input.Key.isUp now defaults to 'true', as does GamepadButton.isUp (#474)
• Vastly improved visibility API support + pageshow/pagehide + focus/blur. Working across Chrome, IE, Firefox, iOS, Android (also fixes #161)
• Pausing the game will now mute audio and resuming will un-mute, unless it was muted via the game (fixes #439)
• ScaleManager has 2 new events: ScaleManager.enterFullScreen and ScaleManager.leaveFullScreen, so you can respond to fullscreen changes directly.
• RandomDataGenerator.integerInRange(min, max) now includes both min and max within its range (#501)
• Tween no longer copies all the object properties into the _valuesStart object on creation.
• Completely empty Tilemaps can now be created. This allows for dynamic map generation at runtime.
• Keyboard.event now stores the most recent DOM keyboard event.
• Animation.stop has a new parameter: dispatchComplete. If true it'll dispatch an Animation.onComplete event.
• TileSprites now have a physics body property and call it in the pre and post updates. As with all physics bodies it's null by default.
• json is now the default tilemap format when not defined (thanks RyanDansie, #528)
• The Particle Emitter now remembers the frames given to it and resets it when a new particle is emitted.
• Game.focusLoss and focusGain methods and onBlur and onFocus Signals added, allowing for more fine-grained control over game pause vs. focus loss.
• Keyboard.removeKey method added (thanks qdrj, #550)
• Key.event now stores the most recent DOM event that triggered it.

Bug Fixes

• Explicitly paused Timer continues if you un-focus and focus the browser window (thanks georgiee)
• Added TimerEvent.pendingDelete and checks in Timer.update, so that removing an event in a callback no longer throws an exception (thanks georgiee)
• Fixed TypeScript defs on lines 1741-1748 (thanks wombatbuddy)
• Previously if you used Sprite.crop() it would crop all Sprites that shared the same base image. It now takes a local copy of the texture data and crops just that.
• Tilemap had the wrong @method signatures so most were missing from the docs.
• Fixed bug where changing State would cause the camera to not reset if it was following an object.
• Tile had 2 properties (callback and callbackContext) that were never assigned, updated to use the proper names (thanks ratkingsimon)
• Fixed an error that would occur if you used InputHandler.onInputUp and the Sprite destroys itself during the event.
• IE11 didn't populate the Device.ie## Version value. Now extracted from Trident revision, but still use Device.trident instead for IE11+ checks.
• Fixed bug in Math.angleBetween where it was using the coordinates in the wrong order.
• Previously using a Pixel Perfect check didn't work if the Sprite was rotated or had a non-zero anchor point, now works under all conditions + atlas frames.
• If pixelPerfect Input Sprites overlapped each other the pixel check wasn't taken into consieration in the Pointer move method.
• Updated Input.Mouse to use event.button not event.which, so the const reference from input.mouse.button is correct (thanks grimor)
• Text that was fixedToCamera would 'jitter' if the world scrolled. Now works as expected across all fixed objects.
• Fixed a bug where Sound.play wouldn't pick-up the local loop setting if not specified in the parameter.
• Active animations now monitor if the game pauses, and resume normally when the game un-pauses (fixes #179)
• Swapping between tabs will now pause the game correctly on mobile browsers (iOS7+)
• Swapping between tabs will pause and resume tweens correctly, allowing their onComplete events to still fire (fixes #292)
• Fullscreen mode now uses window.outerWidth/Height when using EXACT_FIT as the scale mode, which fixes input coordinate errors (fixes #232)
• Fullscreen mode now works in Internet Explorer and uses the new fullscreen non-prefix call.
• Fixed TilemapParser - would spit out a tileset warning if margin/spacing were set (fix #485, thanks Cybolic)
• AnimationParser.spriteSheet wasn't taking the margin or spacing into account when calculating the numbers of sprites per row/column, nor was it allowing for extra power-of-two padding at the end (fix #482, thanks yig)
• AnimationManager.add documentation said that 'frames' could be null, but the code couldn't handle this so it defaults to an empty array if none given (thanks yig)
• Fixed issue stopping SoundManager.volume from working correctly on a global volume basis (fixes #488)
• Phaser.Timer will no longer create negative ticks during game boot, no matter how small the Timer delay is (fixes #366)
• Phaser.Timer will no longer resume if it was previously paused and the game loses focus and then resumes (fixes #383)
• Tweens now resume correctly if the game pauses (focus loss) while they are paused.
• Tweens don't double pause if they were already paused and the game pauses.
• Buttons are now cleanly destroyed if part of a Group without leaving their InputHandler running.
• You can now safely destroy a Group and the 'destroyChildren' boolean will propogate fully down the display list.
• Calling destroy on an already destroyed object would throw a run-time error. Now checked for and aborted.
• Calling destroy while in an Input Event callback now works for either the parent Group or the calling object itself.
• Loader.replaceInFileList wouldn't over-write the previous entry correctly, which caused the Loader.image overwrite parameter to fail (thanks basoko, fixes #493)
• If the game was set to NO_SCALE and you swapped orientation, it would pause and resize, then fail to resize when you swapped back (thanks starnut, fixes #258)
• Device no longer things a Windows Phone or Windows Tablet are desktop devices (thanks wombatbuddy, fixes #506)
• Sound.onMarkerComplete event is now dispatched when a marker stops. See Sound.onLoop for a looping marker event (thanks registered99, fixes #500)
• Events.onInputUp would be dispatched twice if the Sprite had drag enabled, now only dispatched once (thanks Overbryd, fixes #502)
• You can now load in CSV Tilemaps again and they get created properly (fixes #391)
• Tilemap.putTile can now insert a tile into a null/blank area of the map (before it could only replace existing tiles)
• Tilemap.putTile now correctly re-calculates the collision data based on the new collideIndexes array (fixes #371)
• Circle.circumferencePoint using the asDegrees parameter would apply degToRad instead of radToDeg (thanks Ziriax, fixes #509)
• InputHandler.enableSnap now correctly assigns the snap offset parameters (fixes #515)
• Objects that are 'fixedToCamera' are now still correctly placed even if the camera is scaled (#512)
• Changed the define function calls to use named modules, allows pixi, phaser and p2 to reside in 1 file and still be located by requirejs (thanks brejep, #531)
• Cache.destroy fixed to clear up properly (thanks Dumtard, #537)

Version 1.1.4 - "Kandor" - February 5th 2014

Significant API changes

• Loader.tileset has been removed as it's no longer required, this was as part of the Tilemap system overhaul.
• TilemapLayers are now created via the Tilemap object itself: map.createLayer(x, y, width, height, tileset, layer, group) and no longer via the GameObjectFactory.
• Tilemap.createFromObjects can now turn a bunch of Tiled objects into Sprites in one single call, and copies across all properties as well.
• Tween.onStartCallback and onCompleteCallback have been removed to avoid confusion. You should use the onStart, onLoop and onComplete events instead.
• Button.forceOut default value has changed from true to false, so Buttons will revert to an Up state (if set) when pressed and released.
• The way the collision process callback works has changed significantly and now works as originally intended.
• The World level quadtree is no longer created, they are now built and ripped down each time you collide a Group, this helps collision accuracy.
• A SAT system has been integrated for Body collision and separation.
• Bodies are no longer added to a world quadtree, so have had all of their quadtree properties removed such as skipQuadtree, quadTreeIndex, etc.
• Body.drag has been removed. Please use the new Body.linearDamping value instead (which is a number value, not a Point object)
• Body.embedded and Body.wasTouching have been removed as they are no longer required.
• Body.customSeparateX/Y have been removed as you should now use Body.customSeparateCallback.
• Body.maxVelocity defaults have been removed from 10,000 to 2000.
• Body.customSeparateCallback allows you to set your own callback when two Bodies need to separate rather than using the built-in method.
• Body.collideCallback allows you to set a callback that is fired whenever the Body is hit on any of its active faces.
• Body.allowCollision has been renamed to Body.checkCollision.
• Body.rebound is a boolean that controls if a body will exchange velocity on collision. Set to false to allow it to be 'pushed' (see new examples).
• Removed Body.deltaAbsX and deltaAbsY as they are no longer used internally.
• Body.screenX and screenY moved to getters, no longer calculated every frame.
• ArcadePhysics now has setBounds and setBoundsToWorld, and you can specify which walls are created or not (left, right, up, down)
• Removed: Debug.renderSpriteTouching, Debug.renderLocalTransformInfo, Debug.renderWorldTransformInfo, Debug.renderSpriteCollision and Debug.dumpLinkedList.
• Body.setSize has been removed. Please use Body.setCircle, setRectangle or setPolygon instead.

New Features

• Phaser.Timer is now feature complete and fully documented. You can create Phaser.TimerEvents on a Timer and lots of new examples have been provided.
• Gamepad API support has been added with lots of new examples (thanks Karl Macklin)
• Phaser.Game constructor can now be passed a single object containing all of your game settings + Stage settings. Useful for advanced configurations.
• The width/height given to Phaser.Game can now be percentages, i.e. "100%" will set the width to the maximum window innerWidth.
• Added a stage.fullScreenScaleMode property to determine scaling when fullscreen (thanks oysterCrusher)
• Added support for margin and spacing around a frame in Loader.spritesheet.
• Added Device.vibration to check if the Vibration API is available or not.
• Added Device.trident and Device.trident## Version for testing IE11.
• Added Device.silk for detecting a Kindle Fire and updated desktop OS check to exclude Kindles (thanks LuckieLordie)
• TilemapLayers now have debug and debugAlpha values, this turns on the drawing of the collision edges (very handy for debugging, as the name implies!)
• Tweens have a new event: onLoop.
• You can now load any binary file via the Loader: game.load.binary(key, url, callback) - the optional callback allows for post-load processing before entering the Cache.
• Group.set will let you deep set a new propery on a single child of the Group.
• Stage.display property added. A direct reference to the root Pixi Stage object (very useful for RenderTexture manipulation)
• Added Ejecta detection to Device (thanks endel)
• Tweens can now work with relative + and - values. You can do: tween(sprite).to( { x: '+400' }) and it will add 400 to the current sprite.x value.
• Buttons now properly use their upFrame if set.
• InputHandler now has snapOffsetX and snapOffsetY properties so your snap grid doesn't have to be 0,0 aligned (thanks srmeier)
• Loader.progressFloat contains the actual non-rounded progress value, where-as Loader.progress contains a rounded value. Use progressFloat if you've > 100 files to load.
• Groups can now be added to other Groups as children via group.add() and group.addAt()
• Groups now have an 'alive' property, which can be useful when iterating through child groups with functions like forEachAlive.
• Added a new Project Template "Full Screen Mobile" which you can find in the resources folder. Contains html / css / layout needed for a deployed Phaser game.
• Body.speed - the current speed of the body.
• Body.angle - the current angle the Body is facing based on its velocity. This is not the same as the Sprite angle that may own the body.
• Body.linearDamping - This now replaces Body.drag and provides for a much smoother damping (friction) experience.
• Body.minBounceVelocity - If a Body has bounce set, this threshold controls if it should rebound or not. Use it to stop 'jittering' on bounds/tiles with super-low velocities.
• QuadTree.populate - you can pass it a Group and it'll automatically insert all of the children ready for inspection.
• Input.setMoveCallback allows you to set a callback that will be fired each time the activePointer receives a DOM move event.
• Math.distancePow(x1,y1,x2,y2,power) returns the distance between two coordinates at the given power.
• Physics.collide now supports the 2nd parameter as an array, for when you want to collide an object against a number of sprites that aren't all in the same Group.
• Physics.overlap now supports the 2nd parameter as an array, for when you want to overlap test an object against a number of sprites that aren't all in the same Group.
• Math.reverseAngle - reverses an angle (in radians).
• Math.normalizeAngle - normalises an angle, now in radians only.
• Math.normalizeLatitude - Normalizes a latitude to the [-90,90] range.
• Math.normalizeLongitude - Normalizes a longitude to the [-180,180] range.
• Phaser.Line added to the geometry classes, with full point on line/segment and intersection tests (see new examples)
• Phaser.CANVAS_PX_ROUND is a boolean. If 'true' the Canvas renderer will Math.floor() all coordinates before drawImage, stopping pixel interpolation. Defaults to false.
• Phaser.CANVAS_CLEAR_RECT is a boolean. If 'true' (the default) it will context.clearRect() every frame. If false this is skipped (useful if you know you don't need it)
• Collision now works between Sprites positioned via sprite.x/y, sprite.body.x/y or sprite.body.velocity.
• If you are tweening a sprite and still want physics collision, set sprite.body.moves = false otherwise it will fight against the tween motion.
• Game.enableStep will enable core game loop stepping. When enabled you must call game.step() directly (perhaps via a DOM button?), very useful for debugging!
• Game.disableStep turns core update loop stepping off.
• Debug.renderPhysicsBody(body, color) is extremely useful for debugging the new physics bodies. Will draw the outline + points in the color given.
• Debug.renderBodyInfo(sprite, x, y, color) will display lots of Sprite body data.
• Sprite.events.onBeginContact will be fired when a Body makes contact with another Body. Once contact is over an onEndContact event will be dispatched.

• When a Sprite is destroyed any active filters are removed at the same time.
• Updated Pixi.js so that removing filters now works correctly without breaking the display list.
• Phaser.Canvas.create updated so it can be given an ID as the 3rd parameter (can also be set via new Game configuration object).
• Updated display/fullscreen example to reflect new full screen change.

• Switch method of using trimmed sprites to support scaling and rotation (thanks cocoademon)
• Most of the GameObjectFactory functions now have a group parameter, so you can do: game.add.sprite(x, y, frame, frameName, group) rather than defaulting to the World group.
• Group.countLiving and countDead used to return -1 if the Group was empty, but now return 0.
• Text can now be fixedToCamera, updated world/fixed to camera example to show this.
• ArcadePhysics.overlap and collide now recognise TileSprites in the collision checks.
• Lots of documentation fixes in the Tween class.
• Tweens fire an onLoop event if they are set to repeat. onComplete is now only fired for the final repeat (or never if the repeat is infinite)

• Input doesn't set the cursor to default if it's already set to none.
• You can now collide a group against itself. This will check all children against each other, but not themselves (thanks cocoademon)
• RenderTexture.render / renderXY has a new parameter: renderHidden, a boolean which will allow you to render Sprites even if their visible is set to false.
• Added in prototype.constructor definitions to every class (thanks darkoverlordofdata)

• Removed the console.log redirect from Utils as it was messing with Firefox.
• Body.acceleration is now much smoother and less eratic at high speeds.
• Removed ArcadePhysics binding to the QuadTree, so it can now be used independantly of the physics system.
• Removed ArcadePhysics.preUpdate and postUpdate as neither are needed any more.
• Body.bottom and Body.right are no longer rounded, so will give accurate sub-pixel values.
• Fixed lots of documentation in the Emitter class.
• The delta timer value used for physics calculations has had its cap limit modified from 1.0 to 0.05 in line with the core updates.
• Phaser.Math.min enhanced so you can now pass in either an array of numbers or lots of numbers as parameters to get the lowest.
• Phaser.Math.max added as the opposite of Math.min.
• Phaser.Math.minProperty and maxProperty added. Like Math.min/max but can be given a property an an array or list of objects to inspect.
• Added 'full' paramter to Body.reset, allowing you to control if motion or all data is reset or not.
• Exposed Group.pivot and Sprite.pivot to allow you to directly set the pivot points for rotation.
• Swapped to using the native and faster Array.isArray check.
• Added callback context parameter to Tween.onUpdateCallback(callback, context) to avoid having to bind or create anonymous functions.
• Updated TweenManager.removeAll so it flags all tweens as pendingDelete rather than nuking the array, to avoid tween callback array size errors (thanks DarkDev)

Bug Fixes

• Cache.getImageKeys returned __missing in the array, now excluded.
• Fixed Group.scale so you can now scale a Group directly.
• Removed World.scale as it was preventing Group.scale from working - you can still scale the world, but you'll need to factor in Input changes yourself.
• Moved 'dirty' flag for Tilemap to a per-layer flag. Fixes #242
• Group.length now returns the number of children in the Group regardless of their exists/alive state, or 0 if the Group has no children.

• RenderTexture now displays correctly in Canvas games.
• Canvas.addToDOM is now more robust when applying the overflowHidden style.
• Fixed Pixi.StripShader which should stop the weird TileSprite GPU issues some were reporting (thanks GoodboyDigital)
• Patched desyrel.xml so it doesn't contain any zero width/height characters, as they broke Firefox 25.
• Cache.addSound now implements a locked attribute (thanks haden)
• Sound now checks for CocoonJS during playback to avoid readyState clash (thanks haden)

• Sounds will now loop correctly if they are paused and resumed (thanks haden)
• InputHandler.checkBoundsRect and checkBoundsSprite now take into account if the Sprite is fixedToCamera or not.
• Removed the frame property from TileSprites as it cannot use them, it tiles the whole image only, not just a section of it.
• Fixed WebGLRenderer updateGraphics bug (thanks theadam)
• Removed duplicate Timer.create line (thanks hstolte)
• Fixed issue with the camera being slightly out of sync with 'fixedToCamera' sprites.

Version 1.1.3 - "Arafel" - November 29th 2013

New Features

• Phaser.Filter. A new way to use the new WebGL shaders/filters that the new version of Pixi supports.
• Phaser.BitmapData object. A Canvas you can freely draw to with lots of functions. Can be used as a texture for Sprites. See the new examples and docs for details.
• The entire Phaser library has been updated to match the new JSHint configuration.
• Added a .jshintrc so contributions can be run through JSHint to help retain formatting across the library (thanks kevinthompson)
• Added a new in-built texture. Sprites now use __default if no texture was provided (a 32x32 transparent PNG) or __missing if one was given but not found (a 32x32 black box with a green cross through it)
• Loader can now load JavaScript files. Just use game.load.script('key', 'url') - the file will be turned into a script tag in the document head on successful load.
• RenderTexture.render now takes a Phaser.Group. Also added renderXY for when you don't want to make a new Point object.
• Physics.overlap now supports Sprites, Groups or Emitters and can perform group vs. group (etc) overlap checks with a custom callback and process handler.
• Added Sound.externalNode which allows you to connect a Sound to an external node input rather than the SoundManager gain node.
• Added SoundManager.connectToMaster boolean. Used in conjunction with Sound.externalNode you can easily configure audio nodes to connect together for special effects.
• PluginManager.remove, added PluginManager.removeAll (thanks crazysam)
• scrollFactorX/scrollFactorY have been added to TilemapLayers (thanks jcd-as)
• Phaser.Game parent can now be an HTMLElement or a string (thanks beeglebug)
• Now using the latest version of Pixi.js. Which means you can use all the sexy new WebGL filters :)
• Sprite.animations.getAnimation will return an animation instance which was added by name.
• Added Mouse.button which is set to the button that was pressed: Phaser.Mouse.LEFT_BUTTON, MIDDLE_BUTTON or RIGHT_BUTTON (thanks wKLV)
• Added Mouse.pointerLock signal which you can listen to whenever the browser enters or leaves pointer lock mode.
• StageScaleMode.forceOrientation allows you to lock your game to one orientation and display a Sprite (i.e. a "please rotate" screen) when incorrect.
• World.visible boolean added, toggles rendering of the world on/off entirely.
• Polygon class & drawPolygon method added to Graphics (thanks rjimenezda)
• Added Group.iterate, a powerful way to count or return children that match a certain criteria. Refactored Group to use iterate, lots of repeated code cut.
• Added Group.sort. You can now sort the Group based on any given numeric property (x, y, health), finally you can do depth-sorting :) Example created to show.
• Enhanced renderTexture so it can accept a Phaser.Group object and improved documentation and examples.
• Device.littleEndian boolean added. Only safe to use if the browser supports TypedArrays (which IE9 doesn't, but nearly all others do)
• You can now call game.sound.play() and simply pass it a key. The sound will play if the audio system is unlocked and optionally destroy itself on complete.
• Mouse.capture is a boolean. If set to true then DOM mouse events will have event.preventDefault() applied, if false they will propogate fully.
• The object returned by Math.sinCosGenerator now contains a length property.

Updates

• Lots of documentation fixes and updates across nearly all files. Tilemap now documented for example and lots of instances of 'Description' filled out.
• ArcadePhysics.updateMotion applies the dt to the velocity calculations as well as position now (thanks jcs)
• RequestAnimationFrame now retains the callbackID which is passed to cancelRequestAnimationFrame.
• Button now goes back to over state when setFrames used in action (thanks beeglebug)
• plugins now have a postUpdate callback (thanks cocoademon)
• Tided up the Graphics object (thanks BorisKozo)
• If running in Canvas mode and you have a render function it will save the context and reset the transform before running your render function.
• Sprite will now check the exists property of the Group it is in, if the Group.exists = false the Sprite won't update.
• If you specify 'null' as a Group parent it will now revert to using the World as the parent (before only 'undefined' worked)
• Skip preupdate/update for PIXI hierarchies in which an ancestor doesn't exist (thanks cocoademon)
• Loader.audio can now accept either an array of URL strings or a single URL string (thanks crazysam + kevinthompson)
• MSPointer updated to support IE11 by dropping the prefix from the event listeners.
• Device.cocoonJS added to detect if the game is running under Cocoon or a native browser.
• Loader now uses a new queue system internally, meaning you can have assets with the same key spread across different types.

Bug Fixes

• Lots of fixes to the TypeScript definitions file (many thanks gltovar)
• Tilemap commands use specified layer when one given (thanks Izzimach)
• Mouse.stop now uses the true useCapture, which means the event listeners stop listening correctly (thanks beeglebug)
• Input Keyboard example fix (thanks Atrodilla)
• BitmapText.destroy now checks if it has a canvas before calling parentNode on it.
• Group.swap had a hellish to find bug that only manifested when B-A upward swaps occured. Hours of debugging later = bug crushed.
• Point.rotate asDegrees fixed (thanks BorisKozo)
• ArcadePhysics.separateTile wasn't returning the value, so the custom process callback wasn't getting called (thanks flameiguana)
• StageScaleMode.forceOrientation now correctly stores the forcePortrait value (thanks haden)
• Fixes to Math and Loader (thanks theJare)
• Tween - isRunning not reset when non-looped tween completes (thanks crazysam + kevinthompson)
• Math.normalizeAngle and Math.wrapAngle (thanks theJare)
• Device.isTouch modified to test maxTouchPointers instead of MSPointer.
• InputHandler.checkPointerOver now checks the visible status of the Sprite Group before processing.
• The Sprite hulls (used for tile collision) were not being updated in sprite->sprite separations (thanks jcs)
• Plugins that had a postUpdate but no Update weren't being marked as active (thanks crazysam)
• StateManager.onPausedCallback function is not called when the game is paused (thanks haden)
• Fix for 'jitter' in scrolling where tilemaps & sprites are one frame off (thanks jcs)

Version 1.1.2 - November 1st 2013

• New: You'll now find a complete Basic project Template in the resources/Project Templates folder. Will add more complex ones soon.
• New: Phaser.Button now has the ability to set over/out/up/down sound effects so they play automatically based on those events.
• New: Added init method to plugins, to be called as they are added to the PluginManager (thanks beeglebug)
• New: Physics.Body now has a center property (issue 142, thanks MikeMnD)
• New: Lots of fixes across Full Screen Mode support. Input now works, scaling restores properly, world scale is correct and anti-alias support added.
• New: Added Group.cursor. This points to the first item added to a Group. You can move the cursor with Group.next() and Group.previous().
• New: Added Tween.isTweening(object) to check if an object is currently being tweened or not (thanks mikehamil10)
• New: Added getMagnitude, setMagnitude, normalize and isZero methods to Point (thanks beeglebug)
• New/Change: Group.callAll now supports nested functions and a context, making it really powerful!
• Updated: Fixed a few final bugs in the Sprite body and bounds calculations, in turn this resolved the Tilemap collision issues in the 1.1 release.
• Updated: Finished documentation for the Phaser.Button class.
• Updated: Fixed the Invaders game sample and enhanced it.
• Updated: Fixed the Star Struck game sample and enhanced it.
• Updated: If you pause an Animation, when you next play it it'll resume (un-pause itself).
• Updated: hexToRGB now accepts short hex codes (#EEE) (thanks beeglebug)
• Updated: State functions (preload, update, render, etc) are now passed the current game as a parameter (thanks beeglebug)
• Updated: If your game is running in Canvas (not WebGL) you can now set Stage.backgroundColor to rgba style CSS strings, allowing for semi-transparent game backgrounds.
• Updated: event.preventDefault() has been added to all Mouse event handlers.
• Updated: Sprite.deltaX/Y removed due to non-use. prevX/Y values moved to Sprite._cache.prevX/Y.
• Updated: Due to missing extends parameter the Sprite prototype was picking up functions from classes it never meant to (Button, TilemapLayer), now fully isolated.
• Fixed issue 135 - Added typeof checks into most ArcadePhysics functions to avoid errors with zero values.
• Fixed issue 136 - distanceTo using worldX/Y instead of x/y.
• Fixed lots of examples where the cursor keys / space bar were not locked from moving the browser page (if you find any more, please tell us!)
• Fixed issue 149 - Starling XML files now load properly again, also created an Example to show use of them (thanks haden)
• Fixed an issue where if the Starling XML file didn't contain a frameX/Y value it would crash on import.
• Fixed the Multiple Animations Example - it's now a lovely underwater scene :)
• Fixed issue 141 - If a Sprite is dragged and you release the Pointer while not over the Sprite, it will think it's still over it (thanks Paratron)

Version 1.1.1 - October 26th 2013

• Quick patch to get Phaser.AUTO working again on Firefox / Android.
• Any key added via addKey now automatically adds it to the capture list.

Version 1.1 - October 25th 2013

What's New

• JSDoc is go! We've added jsdoc3 blocks to every property and function, in every file and published the API docs to the docs folder.
• Brand new Example system (no more php!) and over 150 examples to learn from too.
• New TypeScript definitions file generated (in the build folder - thanks to TomTom1229 for manually enhancing this).
• New Grunt based build system added (thanks to Florent Cailhol)
• New: Phaser.Animation.generateFrameNames - really useful when creating animation data from texture atlases using file names, not indexes.
• Added Sprite.play as a handy short-cut to play an animation already loaded onto a Sprite.
• Added Canvas.setUserSelect() to disable touchCallouts and user selections within the canvas.
• Added Keyboard.addKey() which creates a new Phaser.Key object that can be polled for updates, pressed states, etc. See the 2 new examples showing use.
• Added Button.freezeFrames boolean. Stops the frames being set on mouse events if true.
• Extended the Loader 404 error to display the url of the file that didn't load as well as the key.
• New: Direction constants have been added to Sprites and adjust based on body motion.
• Brand new Sprite.update loop handler. Combined with the transform cache fix and further optimisations this is now much quicker to execute.
• Added Keyboard.createCursorKeys() which creates an object with 4 Key objects inside it mapped to up, down, left and right. See the new example in the input folder.
• Added Body.skipQuadTree boolean for more fine-grained control over when a body is added to the World QuadTree.
• Re-implemented Angular Velocity and Angular Acceleration on the Sprite.body and created 2 new examples to show use.
• Added Sprite.fixedToCamera boolean. A Sprite that is fixed to the camera doesn't move with the world, but has its x/y coordinates relative to the top-left of the camera.
• Added Group.createMultiple - useful when you need to create a Group of identical sprites for pooling, such as bullets.
• Added Group.total. Same as Group.length, but more in line with the rest of the Group naming.
• Added Sprite.outOfBoundsKill boolean flag. Will automatically kill a sprite that leaves the game World bounds (off by default).
• Lots of changes and fixes in ArcadePhysics, including:
• Functions with "mouse" in the title have been updated to "pointer" to more accurately reflect what they do.
• New velocity functions: moveToObject, moveToPointer, moveToXY
• New acceleration functions: accelerateToObject, accelerateToPointer, accelerateToXY
• New distance functions: distanceBetween, distanceToXY, distanceToPointer
• New angle functions: angleBetween, angleToXY, angleToPointer
• velocityFromAngle and velocityFromRotation added with examples created.
• Added killOnComplete parameter to Animation.play. Really useful in situations where you want a Sprite to animate once then kill itself on complete, like an explosion effect.
• Added Sprite.loadTexture(key, frame) which allows you to load a new texture set into an existing sprite rather than having to create a new sprite.
• Added Sprite.destroy back in again and made it a lot more robust at cleaning up child objects.
• Added 'return this' to all the core Loader functions so you can chain load calls if you so wish.
• Added Text.destroy() and BitmapText.destroy(), also updated Group.remove to make it more bullet-proof when an element doesn't have any events.
• Added Phaser.Utils.shuffle to shuffle an array.
• Added Graphics.destroy, x, y and updated angle functions.
• Added AnimationManager.refreshFrame - will reset the texture being used for a Sprite (useful after a crop rect clear)
• Added Physics.overlap(sprite1, sprite2) for quick body vs. body overlap tests with no separation performed.
• On a busy page it's possible for the game to boot with an incorrect stage offset x/y which can cause input events to be calculated wrong. A new property has been added to Stage to combat this issue: Stage.checkOffsetInterval. By default it will check the canvas offset every 2500ms and adjust it accordingly. You can set the value to 'false' to disable the check entirely, or set a higher or lower value. We recommend that you get the value quite low during your games preloader, but once the game has fully loaded hopefully the containing page will have settled down, so it's probably safe to disable the check entirely.
• Added Rectangle.floorAll to floor all values in a Rectangle (x, y, width and height).

What's changed

• Renamed Phaser.Text.text to Phaser.Text.content to avoid conflict and overwrite from Pixi local var.
• Renamed Phaser.Text.style to Phaser.Text.font to avoid conflict and overwrite from Pixi local var.
• Phaser.Button now sets useHandCursor to true by default.
• Change: When you start a new State all active tweens are now purged.
• When the game boots it will now by default disable user-select and touch action events on the game canvas.
• Moved LinkedList.dump to Debug.dumpLinkedList(list)
• Phaser.Animation.Frame is now Phaser.Frame
• Phaser.Animation.FrameData is now Phaser.FrameData
• Phaser.Animation.Parser is now Phaser.AnimationParser (also the file has renamed from Parser.js to AnimationParser.js)
• Phaser.Loader.Parser is now Phaser.LoaderParser (also the file has renamed from Parser.js to LoaderParser.js)
• Change: We've removed the scrollFactor property from all Game Objects. Sorry, but the new Camera system doesn't work with it and it caused all kinds of issues anyway. We will sort out a replacement for it at a later date.
• Change: World now extends Phaser.Group. As a result we've updated GameObjectFactory and other classes that linked to it. If you have anywhere in your code that used to reference world.group you can just remove 'group' from that. So before, world.group.add() is now just world.add().
• Change: The Camera has been completely revamped. Rather than adjusting the position of all display objects (bad) it now just shifts the position of the single world container (good!), this is much quicker and also stops the game objects positions from self-adjusting all the time, allowing for them to be properly nested with other containers.
• Made Sprite.body optional and added in checks, so you can safely null the Sprite body object if using your own physics system and not impact rendering.
• Moved the Camera update checks to World.postUpdate, so all the sprites get the correct adjusted camera position.
• The default Game.antialias value is now 'true', so graphics will be smoothed automatically in canvas. Disable it via the Game constructor or Canvas utils.
• Phaser.Group now automatically calls updateTransform on any child added to it (avoids temp. frame glitches when new objects are rendered on their first frame).

What has been updated:

• Complete overhaul of Physics.Arcade.Body - now significantly more stable and faster too.
• Updated ArcadePhysics.separateX/Y to use new body system - much better results now.
• Added World.postUpdate - all sprite position changes, as a result of physics, happen here before the render.
• Added Animation.paused - can be set to true/false.
• Added support for Body.maxVelocity (thanks cocoademon)
• InputHandler now creates the _pointerData array on creation and populates with one empty set of values, so pointerOver etc all work before a start call.
• Removed the callbackContext parameter from Group.callAll because it's no longer needed.
• Updated Group.forEach, forEachAlive and forEachDead so you can now pass as many parameters as you want, which will all be given to the callback after the child.
• Updated build script so it can be run from the command-line and includes UMD wrappers (thanks iaincarsberg)
• World.randomX/Y now returns values anywhere in the world.bounds range (if set, otherwise 0), including negative values.
• Updated InputHandler to use Math.round rather than Math.floor when snapping an object during drag.
• If you didn't provide the useNumericIndex parameter then AnimationManager.add will set the value by looking at the datatype of the first element in the frames array.
• Group.create now sets the visible and alive properties of the Sprite to the same value as the 'exists' parameter.
• World.randomX/Y now works with negative World.bounds values.
• Tweens .to will now always return the parent (thanks powerfear)
• You can now pass a PIXI.Texture to Sprite (you also need to pass a Phaser.Frame as the frame parameter) but this is useful for Sprites sharing joint canvases.
• Group.alpha is now exposed publically and changes the Group container object (not the children directly, who can still have their own alpha values)
• Device.webGL uses new inspection code to accurately catch more webGL capable devices.
• Debug.renderSpriteBody updated to use a the new Sprite.Body.screenX/Y properties.
• Additional checks added to AnimationManager.frame/frameName on the given values.
• You can now null a Sprite.crop and it will clear down the crop rect area correctly.
• Phaser.Time physicsElapsed delta timer clamp added. Stops rogue iOS / slow mobile timer errors causing crazy high deltas.
• Animation.generateFrameNames can now work in reverse, so the start/stop values can create frames that increment or decrement respectively.
• Loader updated to use xhr.responseText when loading json, csv or text files. xhr.response is still used for Web Audio binary files (thanks bubba)
• Input.onDown and onUp events now dispatch the original event that triggered them (i.e. a MouseEvent or TouchEvent) as the 2nd parameter, after the Pointer (thanks rezoner)
• Updated Sprite.crop significantly. Values are now cached, stopping constant Texture frame updates and you can do sprite.crop.width++ for example (thanks haden)
• Change: Sprite.crop needs to be enabled with sprite.cropEnabled = true.
• Sprite.loadTexture now works correctly with static images, RenderTextures and Animations.
• Lots of fixes within Sprite.bounds. The bounds is now correct regardless of rotation, anchor or scale of the Sprite or any of its parent objects.

What has been fixed:

• QuadTree bug found in 1.0.5 now fixed. The QuadTree is updated properly now using localTransform values.
• Fixed the Bounce.In and Bounce.InOut tweens (thanks XekeDeath)
• Fixed an issue in Animation.update where if the game was paused it would get an insane delta timer throwing a uuid error.
• Added PixiPatch.js to patch in a few essential features until Pixi is updated.
• Fixed issue in Animation.play where the given frameRate and loop values wouldn't overwrite those set on construction.
• Fixed small bug stopping Tween.pause / resume from resuming correctly when called directly.
• Fixed an issue where Tweens.removeAll wasn't clearing tweens in the addition queue.
• Fixed Particle Emitters when using Emitter width/height (thanks XekeDeath)
• Made animation looping more robust when skipping frames (thanks XekeDeath)
• Fix for incorrect new particle positioning (issue #73) (thanks cottonflop)
• Fixed issue in Sound.play where if you gave a missing marker it would play the whole sound sprite instead.
• Button.setFrames will set the current frame based on the button state immediately.
• Loaded.setPreloadSprite now rounds the width/height values and starts from 1. This fixes canvas draw errors in IE9/10 and Firefox.
• Fixed issue causing Keyboard.justPressed to always fire (thanks stemkoski)
• Fixed bug in LinkedList#remove that could cause first to point to a dead node (thanks onedayitwillmake)
• Fixed Cache.addDefaultImage so the default image works in Canvas as well as WebGL. Updated to a new image (32x32 black square with green outline)
• Fixed a bug in the Sprite transform cache check that caused the skew/scale cache to get constantly invalidated - now only updates as needed, significant performance increase!
• Fixed typo in StageScaleMode so it's not pageAlignVeritcally any longer, but pageAlignVertically.
• Fixed issue in Group.countLiving / countDead where the value was off by one (thanks mjablonski)
• Fixed issue with a jittery Camera if you moved a Sprite via velocity instead of x/y placement.
• Fixed the RandomDataGenerator.sow method so if you give in the same seed you'll now get the same results (thanks Hsaka)
• Fixed Issue #101 (Mouse Button 0 is not recognised, thanks rezoner)
• Fixed an issue where creating an animation with just one frame with an index of zero would cause a UUID error (thanks SYNYST3R1)
• Fixed Rectangle.union (thanks andron77)
• Fixed Sound.resume so it now correctly resumes playback from the point it was paused (fixes issue 51, thanks Yora).
• Fixed issue 105 where a dragged object that was destroyed would cause an Input error (thanks onedayitwillmake)
• Fixed Issue 111 - calling Kill on a Phaser.Graphics instance causes error on undefined events.
• Game.destroy will now stop the raf from running as well as close down all input related event listeners (issue 92, thanks astrism)
• Pixel Perfect click detection now works even if the Sprite is part of a texture atlas.

Version 1.0.6 - September 24th 2013

• Added check into Pointer.move to always consider a Sprite that has pixelPerfect enabled, regardless of render ID.
• BUG: The pixel perfect click check doesn't work if the sprite is part of a texture atlas yet.
• Fixed issue with anti-alias in the Game constructor not being set correctly (thanks luizbills)
• Added support for the Graphics game object back in and two examples (thanks earok for spotting)
• New: Tweens can now be chained via multiple to() calls + example created (thanks to powerfear for adding)
• Fixed Math.wrap (thanks TheJare)
• New: When loading a Sprite Sheet you can now pass negative values for the frame sizes which specifies the number of rows/columns to load instead (thanks TheJare)
• New: BitmapText now supports anchor and has fixed box dimensions (thanks TheJare)
• Fixed bug where if a State contains an empty Preloader the Update will not be called (thanks TheJare)
• Several new examples added (cameras, tweens, etc)
• Added in extra checks to halt collision if it involves an empty Group (thanks cang)
• Added time smoothing to Animation update to help frames hopefully not get too out of sync during long animations with high frame rates.
• Added frame skip to Animation.update. If it gets too far behind it will now skip frames to try and catch up.

Version 1.0.5 - September 20th 2013

• Fixed issue in FrameData.getFrameIndexes where the input array was being ignored.
• Added Math.numberArray - Returns an Array containing the numbers from min to max (inclusive), useful for animation frame construction.
• Fixed a horrendously sneaky bug: If a new tween was created in the onComplete callback of a tween about to be deleted, it would get automatically spliced.
• Added a pendingDelete property to Tween to stop tweens that were removed during a callback from causing update errors during the TweenManager loop.
• Added Group.length property.
• Added explicit x/y attributes to Phaser.Text to make it work with the camera system (thanks cocoademon).
• Fixed issue stopping multiple animations from playing, only the most recent would play (frames array was being overwritten, thanks Legrandk)
• Updated Debug.renderSpriteBounds() so it doesn't use the deprecated Sprite.worldView any more (thanks MikeMnD)
• Added 2 new properties to the Text object: Text.text and Text.style, both are getter/setters and don't flag dirty unless changed, so safe for core loop use.
• Removed the exists check from Group.callAll, it now runs on all children (as the name implies)
• Added Group.callAllExists - you can now call a function on all children who have exists = the provided boolean.
• Finished off the Breakout example game - now fully playable, proper rebound, scoring, lives, etc.
• Removed Group.sort dummy entry until it's working.
• Removed ArcadePhysics.postUpdate.
• Updated Sprite.update to set renderable to false when the object goes out of Camera, not 'visible' false, otherwise it stops the transform being updated by Pixi.
• BUG: There is a known issue where the wrong rect coordinates are given to the QuadTree if the Sprite is a child of a Group or another Sprite which has an x/y offset.

Version 1.0.4 - September 18th 2013

• Small fix to Phaser.Canvas to stop it from setting overflow hidden if the parent DOM element doesn't exist.
• Added Loader.setPreloadSprite(sprite, direction) - this will automatically apply a crop rect to the Sprite which is updated in line with the load progress.
• A lot of changes inside the StateManager. State functions are now passed through link() which automatically creates the key Game properties (load, input, etc)
• Fixed a bug in getFrameByName that wouldn't return the first frame in the array.
• Updated Phaser.Rectangle.intersects to use x and y instead of left and top so it can be used to check Physics bodies overlapping.
• Fixed issue in Cache where the Frame index wasn't being set correctly (thanks Cameron)
• Fixed issue in Sprite where boundsY wasn't set (thanks Cameron)
• For some reason there were 2 copies of the Canvas class in the build file - fixed, a few KB saved :)

Version 1.0.3 - September 17th 2013

• FrameData.getFrameIndexes and getFrameIndexesByName refactored into a more versatile getFrames function.
• Various fixes to looping parameters in the Sound system.
• Documentation started across most classes. Keep track of progress in the Docs folder.
• Optimised AnimationManager.add so it will only get the required frames rather than all of them and is now faster at parsing the frame data.
• Fixed Phaser.Text and Phaser.BitmapText so they now render correctly and added several Text examples.

Version 1.0.2 - September 16th 2013

• Added optional parameter to Animation.stop: resetFrame. If true the animation will be stopped and then the current frame reset to the first frame in the animation.
• Fixed an issue causing 'explode' particle bursts to ignore the quantity parameter.
• Added 'collideWorldBounds' to Emitter.makeParticles function.
• Added Emitter.angularDrag
• Changed Emitter.bounce from a number to a Point, so now set its x/y properties to control different amounts of bounce per axis.
• Fixed a bug in the AnimationManager where useNumericIndex was always set to true
• Added in lots of Particle examples
• Added in the start of a Breakout game
• Added in the start of a Platformer game

Version 1.0.1 - September 15th 2013

• Added checks into every Group function to ensure that the Group has children before running them.
• Added optional flag to Group.create which allows you to set the default exists state of the Sprites.
• Sprite.animation.stop no longer needs an animation name parameter, will default to stopping the current animation.
• Fixed the license in package.json
• Fixed a logic bug in the separateTileX function that would sometimes cause tunneling of big sprites through small tiles.

Version 1.0 - September 13th 2013

• Massive refactoring across the entire codebase.
• Removed Basic and GameObject and put Sprite on a diet. 127 properties and methods cut down to 32.
• Added a new headless renderer for non-display related performance testing.
• Added camera type to the CameraManager for future non-orthographic cameras.
• Added Camera.destroy - now clears down the FX and unregisters itself from the CameraManager.
• Added Camera.hide/show to hide Sprites or Groups from rendering (and removed corresponding hideFromCamera methods from Sprites/Groups)
• Heavily optimised Group so it no longer creates any temporary variables in any methods.
• Added Game.renderer which can be HEADLESS, CANVAS or WEBGL (coming soon)
• Added Sprite.render which is a reference to IRenderer.renderSprite, but can be overridden for custom handling.
• Refactored QuadTree so it no longer creates any temporary variables in any methods.
• The Sprite Renderer now uses a single setTransform for scale, rotation and translation that respects the Sprite.origin value in all cases.
• Sprite.modified is set to true if scale, rotation, skew or flip have been used.
• Added Tween.loop property so they can now re-run themselves indefinitely.
• Added Tween.yoyo property so they can reverse themselves after completing.
• Added Gravity to the Physics component.
• Removed Sprite.angle - use Sprite.rotation instead
• Optimised separateX/Y and overlap so they don't use any temporary vars any more.
• Added the new Physics.Body object to all Sprites. Used for all physics calculations in-game. Will be extended for Fixtures/Joints in future.

• Added Sprite.Input component for tracking Input events over a Sprite
• Added Sprite.Input.useHandCursor (for desktop)
• Added Sprite.Input.justOver and justOut with a configurable ms delay
• Added Sprite.Events component for a global easy to access area to listen to events from
• Added Group.ID, each Group has a unique ID. Added Sprite.group (and Group.group) which is a reference to the Group it was added to.
• Added Group.addNewSprite(x,y,key) for quick addition of new Sprites to a Group
• Fixed Group.sort so the sortHandler is called correctly
• Added Group.swap(a,b) to swap the z-index of 2 objects with optional rendering update boolean
• Sprites dispatch new events for: killed, revived, added to Group and removed from Group.
• Added Input drag, bounds, sprite bounds and snapping support.
• Added the new ColorUtils class full of lots of handy color manipulation functions.
• Fixed issue in Camera.inCamera check where it wouldn't take into consideration the Sprites scrollFactor.
• Fixed issue with JSON Atlas loader incorrectly parsing the frames array.
• Fixed bug in FrameData.getFrameByName where the first frame of the array would always be skipped.
• Fixed bug where the Stage.backgroundColor property wasn't being saved correctly.
• Made Stage.bootScreen and Stage.pauseScreen public so you can override them with your own States now.
• Added the new OrientationScreen and Stage.enableOrientationCheck to allow for easy 'portrait/landscape only' game handling.
• Added fix to StageScaleMode for 180 degree portrait orientation on iPad.
• Added fix to orientation check so that it updates the input offsets correctly on rotation.
• Added support for minWidth and minHeight to game scale size, so it can never go below those values when scaling.
• Vastly improved orientation detection and response speed.
• Added custom callback support for all Touch and Mouse Events so you can easily hook events to custom APIs.
• Updated Game.loader and its methods. You now load images by: game.load.image() and also: game.load.atlas, game.load.audio, game.load.spritesheet, game.load.text. And you start it with game.load.start().
• Added optional frame parameter to Phaser.Sprite (and game.add.sprite) so you can set a frame ID or frame name on construction.
• Fixed bug where passing a texture atlas string would incorrectly skip the frames array.
• Added AnimationManager.autoUpdateBounds to control if a new frame should change the physics bounds of a sprite body or not.
• Added StageScaleMode.pageAlignHorizontally and pageAlignVertically booleans. When true Phaser will set the margin-left and top of the canvas element so that it is positioned in the middle of the page (based only on window.innerWidth).
• Added support for globalCompositeOperation, opaque and backgroundColor to the Sprite.Texture and Camera.Texture components.
• Added ability for a Camera to skew and rotate around an origin.
• Moved the Camera rendering into CanvasRenderer to keep things consistent.
• Added Stage.setImageRenderingCrisp to quickly set the canvas image-rendering to crisp-edges (note: poor browser support atm)
• Sprite.width / height now report the scaled width height, setting them adjusts the scale as it does so.
• Created a Transform component containing scale, skew, rotation, scrollFactor, origin and rotationOffset. Added to Sprite, Camera, Group.
• Created a Texture component containing image data, alpha, flippedX, flippedY, etc. Added to Sprite, Camera, Group.
• Added CameraManager.swap and CameraManager.sort methods and added a z-index property to Camera to control render order.
• Added World.postUpdate loop + Group and Camera postUpdate methods.
• Fixed issue stopping Pointer from working in world coordinates and fixed the world drag example.

• Added input.activePointer which contains a reference to the most recently active pointer.
• Sprite.Transform now has upperLeft, upperRight, bottomLeft and bottomRight Point properties and lots of useful coordinate related methods.
• Camera.inCamera check now uses the Sprite.worldView which finally accurately updates regardless of scale, rotation or rotation origin.
• Added Math.Mat3 for Matrix3 operations (which Sprite.Transform uses) and Math.Mat3Utils for lots of use Mat3 related methods.
• Added SpriteUtils.overlapsXY and overlapsPoint to check if a point is within a sprite, taking scale and rotation into account.

• Moved 'facing' property from Sprite.body to Sprite.texture (may move to Sprite core)
• Added Sprite.events.onDragStart and onDragStop
• A tilemap can now be loaded without a tile sheet, should you just want to get the tile data from it and not render.
• Added new Sprite.events: onAnimationStart, onAnimationComplete, onAnimationLoop
• Added in support for the Input component PriorityID value and refactored Input.Pointer to respect it. Rollovers are perfect now :)
• Added 2 new State functions: loadRender and loadUpdate, are called the same as render and update but only during the load process
• Fixed Input.stopDrag so it fires an onInputUp event as well from the sprite.
• Added support for a preRender state - very useful for certain types of special effects.
• Cameras are now limited so they can never be larger than the Game.Stage size.
• Added a new Button Game Object for easily creating in-game UI and menu systems.
• Fixed bug where Sprite.alpha wasn't properly reflecting Sprite.texture.alpha.
• Fixed bug where the hand cursor would be reset on input up, even if the mouse was still over the sprite.
• Fixed bug where pressing down then moving out of the sprite area wouldn't properly reset the input state next time you moved over the sprite.
• Added the Sprite.tween property, really useful to avoid creating new tween vars in your local scope if you don't need them.
• Added support for pagehide and pageshow events to Stage, hooked in to the pause/resume game methods.
• Extended Device audio checks to include opus and webm.
• Updated Loader and Cache so they now support loading of Audio() tags as well as Web Audio.
• Set Input.recordPointerHistory to false, you now need to enable the pointer tracking if you wish to use it.
• SoundManager will now automatically handle iOS touch unlocking.

• Dropped the StageScaleMode.setScreenSize iterations count from 40 down to 10 and document min body height to 2000px.
• Added Phaser.Net for browser and network specific functions, currently includes query string parsing and updating methods.
• Added a new CSS3 Filters component. Apply blur, grayscale, sepia, brightness, contrast, hue rotation, invert, opacity and saturate filters to the games stage.
• Fixed the CircleUtils.contains and containsPoint methods.
• Fixed issue with Input.speed values being too high on new touch events.
• Added Sprite.bringToTop()
• Added Stage.disableVisibilityChange to stop the auto pause/resume from ever firing.
• Added crop support to the Texture component, so you can do Sprite.crop to restrict rendering to a specified Rectangle without distortion.
• Added references to all the event listener functions so they can be cleanly destroyed.
• Fixed interesting Firefox issue when an audio track ended it fired another 'canplaythrough' event, confusing the Loader.
• Added the new PluginManager. Moved all the Camera FX over to plugins. Everything will be a plugin from now on.
• Added Sprite.transform.centerOn(x,y) to quickly center a sprite on a coordinate without messing with the sprite origin and regardless of rotation.
• Added Input.pollRate - this lets you limit how often Pointer events are handled (0 = every frame, 1 = every other frame, etc)
• Renamed the 'init' function to 'preload'. It now calls load.start automatically.
• Added CanvasUtils class, including ability to set image rendering, add a canvas to the dom and other handy things.

Version 0.9.6 - 24th May 2013

• Updated StageScaleMode to check both window.orientationchange and window.resize events.
• Updated RequestAnimationFrame to use performance.now for sub-millisecond precision and to drive the Game.time.update loop.
• Updated RequestAnimationFrame setTimeout to use fixed timestep and re-ordered callback sequence. Android 2/iOS5 performance much better now.
• Removed Stage.ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE statics because the values should be taken from Stage.scale.isPortrait / isLandscape.
• Removed Stage.maxScaleX/Y and moved them into StageScaleMode.minWidth, minHeight, maxWidth and maxHeight.
• Fixed Stage.scale so that it resizes without needing an orientation change first.
• Added StageScaleMode.startFullscreen(), stopFullScreen() and isFullScreen for making use of the FullScreen API on desktop browsers.
• Swapped Stage.offset from Point to MicroPoint.
• Swapped Stage.bounds from Rectangle to Quad.
• Added State.destroy support. A states destroy function is called when you switch to a new state (thanks JesseFreeman).
• Added Sprite.fillColor, used in the Sprite render if no image is loaded (set via the property or Sprite.makeGraphic) (thanks JesseFreeman).
• Renamed Phaser.Finger to Phaser.Pointer.
• Updated all of the Input classes so they now use Input.pointers 1 through 10.
• Updated Touch and MSPointer to allow multi-touch support (when the hardware supports it) and created new tests to show this.
• Added Input.getPointer, Input.getPointerFromIdentifier, Input.totalActivePointers and Input.totalInactivePointers.
• Added Input.startPointer, Input.updatePointer and Input.stopPointer.
• Phaser Input now confirmed working on Windows Phone 8 (Nokia Lumia 920).
• Added Input.maxPointers to allow you to limit the number of fingers your game will listen for on multi-touch systems.
• Added Input.addPointer. By default Input will create 5 pointers (+1 for the mouse). Use addPointer() to add up to a maximum of 10.

• Added Game.state - now contains a reference to the current state object (if any was given).
• Moved the Input start events from the constructors to a single Input.start method.
• Added Input.disabled boolean to globally turn off all input event processing.
• Added Input.Mouse.disabled, Input.Touch.disabled, Input.MSPointer.disabled and Input.Keyboard.disabled.
• Added Device.mspointer boolean. true if MSPointer is available on the device.
• Added Input.onDown, onUp, onTap, onDoubleTap and onHold signals - all fired by the mouse or touch.

• Added DynamicTexture.assignCanvasToGameObjects() to allow you to redirect GameObject rendering en-mass to a DynamicTexture
• Added DynamicTexture.render(x,y) to render the texture to the Stage canvas
• Added Basic.ignoreGlobalUpdate - stops the object being updated as part of the main game loop, you'll need to call update on it yourself
• Added Basic.ignoreGlobalRender - stops the object being rendered as part of the main game loop, you'll need to call render on it yourself
• Added forceUpdate and forceRender parameters to Group.update and Group.render respectively. Combined with ignoreGlobal you can create custom rendering set-ups
• Fixed Loader.progress calculation so it now accurately passes a value between 0 and 100 to your loader callback
• Added a 'hard reset' parameter to Input.reset. A hard reset clears Input signals (such as on a state swap), a soft (such as on game pause) doesn't
• Added Device.isConsoleOpen() to check if the browser console is open. Tested on Firefox with Firebug and Chrome with DevTools
• Added delay parameter to Tween.to()
• Fixed bug where GeomSprite.renderOutline was being ignored for Circle objects

• Updated Collision.seperate to use the new CollisionMask
• Added a callback context parameter to Game.collide, Collision.overlap and the QuadTree class
• Stage.canvas now calls preventDefault() when the context menu is activated (oncontextmenu)
• Added Point.rotate to allow you to rotate a point around another point, with optional distance clamping. Also created test cases.
• Added Group.alpha to apply a globalAlpha before the groups children are rendered. Useful to save on alpha calls.
• Added Group.globalCompositeOperation to apply a composite operation before all of the groups children are rendered.
• Added Camera black list support to Sprite and Group along with Camera.show, Camera.hide and Camera.isHidden methods to populate them.
• Added GameMath.rotatePoint to allow for point rotation at any angle around a given anchor and distance
• Updated World.setSize() to optionally update the VerletManager dimensions as well

• Updated Sprite.inCamera to correctly apply the scrollFactor to the camera bounds check
• Added Loader.crossOrigin property which is applied to loaded Images
• Added AnimationManager.destroy() to clear out all local references and objects
• Added the clearAnimations parameter to Sprite.loadGraphic(). Allows you to change animation textures but retain the frame data.
• Added the GameObjectFactory to Game. You now make Sprites like this: game.add.sprite(). Much better separation of game object creation methods now. But you'll have to update ALL code, sorry! (blame JesseFreeman for breaking your code and coming up with the idea :)
• Added GameObjectFactory methods to add existing objects to the game world, such as existingSprite(), existingTween(), etc.
• Added the GameObjectFactory to Phaser.State
• Added new format parameter to Loader.addTextureAtlas defining the format. Currently supported: JSON Array and Starling/Sparrow XML.

Version 0.9.5 - 28th April 2013

• Moved the BootScreen and PauseScreen out of Stage into their own classes (system/screens/BootScreen and PauseScreen).
• Updated the PauseScreen to show a subtle animation effect, making it easier to create your own interesting pause screens.
• Modified Game so it splits into 3 loops - bootLoop, pauseLoop and loop (the core loop).
• Updated the BootScreen with the new logo and new color cycle effect.
• Added Game.isRunning - set to true once the Game.boot process is over IF you gave some functions to the constructor or a state.
• Fixed small bug in Signal.removeAll where it could try to shorten the _bindings even if undefined.
• Added the new FXManager which is used for handling all special effects on Cameras (and soon other game objects).
• Removed Flash, Fade and Shake from the Camera class and moved to the new SpecialFX project.
• SpecialFX compiles to phaser-fx.js in the build folder, which is copied over to Tests. If you don't need the FX, don't include the .js file.
• The project is now generating TypeScript declaration files and all Tests were updated to use them in their references.
• Fixed a bug in Flash, Fade and Shake where the duration would fail on anything above 3 seconds.
• Fixed a bug in Camera Shake that made it go a bit haywire, now shakes correctly.
• Added new Scanlines Camera FX.
• Fixed offset values being ignored in GeomSprite.renderPoint (thanks bapuna).
• Added new Mirror Camera FX. Can mirror the camera image horizontally, vertically or both with an optional fill color overlay.
• Added Camera.disableClipping for when you don't care about things being drawn outside the edge (useful for some FX).
• Updated TilemapLayer so that collision data is now stored in _tempTileBlock to avoid constant array creation during game loop.
• TilemapLayer.getTileOverlaps() now returns all tiles the object overlapped with rather than just a boolean.
• Tilemap.collide now optionally takes callback and context parameters which are used if collision occurs.
• Added Tilemap.collisionCallback and Tilemap.collisionCallbackContext so you can set them once and not re-set them on every call to collide.
• Collision.separateTile now has 2 extra parameters: separateX and separateY. If true the object will be separated on overlap, otherwise just the overlap boolean result is returned.
• Added Tile.separateX and Tile.separateY (both true by default). Set to false if you don't want a tile to stop an object from moving, you just want it to return collision data to your callback.
• Added Tilemap.getTileByIndex(value) to access a specific type of tile, rather than by its map index.
• Added TilemapLayer.putTile(x,y,index) - allows you to insert new tile data into the map layer (create your own tile editor!).
• TilemapLayer.getTileBlock now returns a unique Array of map data, not just a reference to the temporary block array
• Added TilemapLayer.swapTile - scans the given region of the map for all instances of tileA and swaps them for tileB, and vice versa.
• Added TilemapLayer.replaceTile - scans the given region of the map and replaces all instances of tileA with tileB. tileB is left unaffected.
• Added TilemapLayer.fillTiles - fills the given region of the map with the tile specified.
• Added TilemapLayer.randomiseTiles - fills the given region of the map with a random tile from the list specified.
• Added fun new "map draw" test - rebound those carrots! :)
• Changed SoundManager class to respect volume on first play (thanks initials and hackmaniac)

Version 0.9.4 - 28th April 2013

• Added Tilemap.getTile, getTileFromWorldXY, getTileFromInputXY
• Added Tilemap.setCollisionByIndex and setCollisionByRange
• Added GameObject.renderRotation boolean to control if the sprite will visually rotate or not (useful when angle needs to change but graphics don't)
• Added additional check to Camera.width/height so you cannot set them larger than the Stage size
• Added Collision.separateTile and Tilemap.collide
• Fixed Tilemap bounds check if map was smaller than game dimensions
• Fixed: Made World._cameras public, World.cameras and turned Game.camera into a getter for it (thanks Hackmaniac)
• Fixed: Circle.isEmpty properly checks diameter (thanks bapuna)
• Updated Gruntfile to export new version of phaser.js wrapped in a UMD block for require.js/commonJS (thanks Hackmaniac)

Version 0.9.3 - 24th April 2013

• Added the new ScrollZone game object. Endlessly useful but especially for scrolling backdrops. Created 6 example tests.
• Added GameObject.hideFromCamera(cameraID) to stop an object rendering to specific cameras (also showToCamera and clearCameraList)
• Added GameObject.setBounds() to confine a game object to a specific area within the world (useful for stopping them going off the edges)
• Added GameObject.outOfBoundsAction, can be either OUT OF BOUNDS STOP which stops the object moving, or OUT OF BOUNDS KILL which kills it.
• Added GameObject.rotationOffset. Useful if your graphics need to rotate but weren't drawn facing zero degrees (to the right).
• Added shiftSinTable and shiftCosTable to the GameMath class to allow for quick iteration through the data tables.
• Added more robust frame checking into AnimationManager
• Re-built Tilemap handling from scratch to allow for proper layered maps (as exported from Tiled / Mappy)
• Tilemap no longer requires a buffer per Camera (in prep for WebGL support)
• Fixed issues with Group not adding reference to Game to newly created objects (thanks JesseFreeman)
• Fixed a potential race condition issue in Game.boot (thanks Hackmaniac)
• Fixed issue with showing frame zero of a texture atlas before the animation started playing (thanks JesseFreeman)
• Fixed a bug where Camera.visible = false would still render
• Removed the need for DynamicTextures to require a key property and updated test cases.
• You can now pass an array or a single value to Input.Keyboard.addKeyCapture().

Version 0.9.2 - 20th April 2013

• Fixed issue with create not being called if there was an empty init method.
• Added ability to flip a sprite (Sprite.flipped = true) + a test case for it.
• Added ability to restart a sprite animation.
• Sprite animations don't restart if you call play on them when they are already running.
• Added Stage.disablePauseScreen. Set to true to stop your game pausing when the tab loses focus.

Version 0.9.1 - 19th April 2013

• Added the new align property to GameObjects that controls placement when rendering.
• Added an align example to the Sprites test group (click the mouse to change alignment position)
• Added a new MicroPoint class. Same as Point but much smaller / less functions, updated GameObject to use it.
• Completely rebuilt the Rectangle class to use MicroPoints and store the values of the 9 points around the edges, to be used for new collision system.
• Game.Input now has 2 signals you can subscribe to for down/up events, see the Sprite align example for use.
• Updated the States examples to bring in-line with 0.9 release.

Version 0.9 - 18th April 2013

• Large refactoring. Everything now lives inside the Phaser module, so all code and all tests have been updated to reflect this. Makes coding a tiny bit more verbose but stops the framework from globbing up the global namespace. Also should make code-insight work in WebStorm and similar editors.
• Added the new GeomSprite object. This is a sprite that uses a geometry class for display (Circle, Rectangle, Point, Line). It's extremely flexible!
• Added Geometry intersection results objects.
• Added new Collision class and moved some functions there. Contains all the Game Object and Geometry Intersection methods.
• Can now create a sprite animation based on frame names rather than indexes. Useful when you've an animation inside a texture atlas. Added test to show.
• Added addKeyCapture(), removeKeyCapture() and clearCaptures() to Input.Keyboard. Calls event.preventDefault() on any keycode set to capture, allowing you to avoid page scrolling when using the cursor keys in a game for example.
• Added new Motion class which contains lots of handy functions like 'moveTowardsObject', 'velocityFromAngle' and more.
• Tween Manager added. You can now create tweens via Game.createTween (or for more control game.tweens). All the usual suspects are here: Bounce, * Elastic, Quintic, etc and it's hooked into the core game clock, so if your game pauses and resumes your tweens adjust accordingly.

Version 0.8 - 15th April 2013

• Added ability to set Sprite frame by name (sprite.frameName), useful when you've loaded a Texture Atlas with filename values set rather than using frame indexes.
• Updated texture atlas 4 demo to show this.
• Fixed a bug that would cause a run-time error if you tried to create a sprite using an invalid texture key.
• Added in DynamicTexture support and a test case for it.

Version 0.7 - 14th April 2013

• Renamed FullScreen to StageScaleMode as it's much more fitting. Tested across Android and iOS with the various scale modes.
• Added in world x/y coordinates to the input class, and the ability to get world x/y input coordinates from any Camera.
• Added the RandomDataGenerator for seeded random number generation.
• Setting the game world size now resizes the default camera (optional bool flag)

Version 0.6 - 13th April 2013

• Added in Touch support for mobile devices (and desktops that enable it) and populated x/y coords in Input with common values from touch and mouse.
• Added new Circle geometry class (used by Touch) and moved them into a Geom folder.
• Added in Device class for device inspection.
• Added FullScreen class to enable full-screen support on mobile devices (scrolls URL bar out of the way on iOS and Android)

Version 0.5 - 12th April 2013

• Initial release
