Class: Quad

Phaser.GameObjects. Quad

A Quad Game Object.

A Quad is a Mesh Game Object pre-configured with two triangles arranged into a rectangle, with a single texture spread across them.

You can manipulate the corner points of the quad via the getters and setters such as topLeftX, and also change their alpha and color values. The quad itself can be moved by adjusting the x and y properties.

Extends

Members

active :boolean

The active state of this Game Object. A Game Object with an active state of true is processed by the Scenes UpdateList, if added to it. An active object is one which is having its logic and internal systems updated.

Type:
  • boolean

Default Value:
  • true
Source: src/gameobjects/GameObject.js (Line 95)

alphas :Float32Array

An array containing the alpha data for this Mesh.

Type:
  • Float32Array
Since: 3.0.0
Inherited From:
Source: src/gameobjects/mesh/Mesh.js (Line 131)

angle :integer

The angle of this Game Object as expressed in degrees.

Phaser uses a right-hand clockwise rotation system, where 0 is right, 90 is down, 180/-180 is left and -90 is up.

If you prefer to work in radians, see the rotation property instead.

Type:
  • integer

Source: src/gameobjects/components/Transform.js (Line 196)

blendMode :Phaser.BlendModes|string

Sets the Blend Mode being used by this Game Object.

This can be a const, such as Phaser.BlendModes.SCREEN, or an integer, such as 4 (for Overlay)

Under WebGL only the following Blend Modes are available:

  • ADD
  • MULTIPLY
  • SCREEN
  • ERASE

Canvas has more available depending on browser support.

You can also create your own custom Blend Modes in WebGL.

Blend modes have different effects under Canvas and WebGL, and from browser to browser, depending on support. Blend Modes also cause a WebGL batch flush should it encounter a new blend mode. For these reasons try to be careful about the construction of your Scene and the frequency of which blend modes are used.

Inherited From:
Default Value:
  • 1
Source: src/gameobjects/components/Transform.js (Line 223)

scale :number

This is a special setter that allows you to set both the horizontal and vertical scale of this Game Object to the same value, at the same time. When reading this value the result returned is (scaleX + scaleY) / 2.

Use of this property implies you wish the horizontal and vertical scales to be equal to each other. If this isn't the case, use the scaleX or scaleY properties instead.

Type:
  • number
Since: 3.18.0
Inherited From:
Default Value:
  • 1
Source: src/gameobjects/components/Transform.js (Line 98)

scaleX :number

<protected> scene :Phaser.Scene

The Scene to which this Game Object belongs. Game Objects can only belong to one Scene.

Type:
Since: 3.0.0
Inherited From:
Source: src/gameobjects/GameObject.js (Line 38)

scrollFactorX :number

The horizontal scroll factor of this Game Object.

The scroll factor controls the influence of the movement of a Camera upon this Game Object.

When a camera scrolls it will change the location at which this Game Object is rendered on-screen. It does not change the Game Objects actual position values.

A value of 1 means it will move exactly in sync with a camera. A value of 0 means it will not move at all, even if the camera moves. Other values control the degree to which the camera movement is mapped to this Game Object.

Please be aware that scroll factor values other than 1 are not taken in to consideration when calculating physics collisions. Bodies always collide based on their world position, but changing the scroll factor is a visual adjustment to where the textures are rendered, which can offset them from physics bodies if not accounted for in your code.

Type:
  • number
Since: 3.0.0
Inherited From:
Default Value:
  • 1
Source: src/gameobjects/components/ScrollFactor.js (Line 16)

scrollFactorY :number

The vertical scroll factor of this Game Object.

The scroll factor controls the influence of the movement of a Camera upon this Game Object.

When a camera scrolls it will change the location at which this Game Object is rendered on-screen. It does not change the Game Objects actual position values.

A value of 1 means it will move exactly in sync with a camera. A value of 0 means it will not move at all, even if the camera moves. Other values control the degree to which the camera movement is mapped to this Game Object.

Please be aware that scroll factor values other than 1 are not taken in to consideration when calculating physics collisions.

Source: src/gameobjects/components/ScrollFactor.js (Line 40)

state :integer|string

The current state of this Game Object.

Phaser itself will never modify this value, although plugins may do so.

Use this property to track the state of a Game Object during its lifetime. For example, it could move from a state of 'moving', to 'attacking', to 'dead'. The state value should be an integer (ideally mapped to a constant in your game code), or a string. These are recommended to keep it light and simple, with fast comparisons. If you need to store complex data about your Game Object, look at using the Data Component instead.

Type:
  • integer | string

Type
Phaser.GameObjects.Quad

createBitmapMask( [renderable])

Creates and returns a Bitmap Mask. This mask can be used by any Game Object, including this one.

To create the mask you need to pass in a reference to a renderable Game Object. A renderable Game Object is one that uses a texture to render with, such as an Image, Sprite, Render Texture or BitmapText.

If you do not provide a renderable object, and this Game Object has a texture, it will use itself as the object. This means you can call this method to create a Bitmap Mask from any renderable Game Object.

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Description
renderable Phaser.GameObjects.GameObject <optional>

A renderable Game Object that uses a texture, such as a Sprite.
Since: 3.6.2
Inherited From:
Source: src/gameobjects/components/Mask.js (Line 80)
Returns:

This Bitmap Mask that was created.

Type
Phaser.Display.Masks.BitmapMask

createGeometryMask( [graphics])

Creates and returns a Geometry Mask. This mask can be used by any Game Object, including this one.

To create the mask you need to pass in a reference to a Graphics Game Object.

If you do not provide a graphics object, and this Game Object is an instance of a Graphics object, then it will use itself to create the mask.

This means you can call this method to create a Geometry Mask from any Graphics Game Object.

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Description
graphics Phaser.GameObjects.Graphics <optional>

A Graphics Game Object. The geometry within it will be used as the mask.
Since: 3.6.2
Inherited From:

Returns:

This Geometry Mask that was created.

Type
Phaser.Display.Masks.GeometryMask

destroy( [fromScene])

Destroys this Game Object removing it from the Display List and Update List and severing all ties to parent resources.

Also removes itself from the Input Manager and Physics Manager if previously enabled.

Use this to remove a Game Object from your game if you don't ever plan to use it again. As long as no reference to it exists within your own code it should become free for garbage collection by the browser.

If you just want to temporarily disable an object then look at using the Game Object Pool instead of destroying it, as destroyed objects cannot be resurrected.

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Default Description
fromScene boolean <optional>
 false

Is this Game Object being destroyed as the result of a Scene shutdown?
Since: 3.0.0
Inherited From:
Source: src/gameobjects/GameObject.js (Line 545)
Fires:

disableInteractive()

If this Game Object has previously been enabled for input, this will disable it.

An object that is disabled for input stops processing or being considered for input events, but can be turned back on again at any time by simply calling setInteractive() with no arguments provided.

If want to completely remove interaction from this Game Object then use removeInteractive instead.

Since: 3.7.0

removeInteractive()

If this Game Object has previously been enabled for input, this will queue it for removal, causing it to no longer be interactive. The removal happens on the next game step, it is not immediate.

The Interactive Object that was assigned to this Game Object will be destroyed, removed from the Input Manager and cleared from this Game Object.

If you wish to re-enable this Game Object at a later date you will need to re-create its InteractiveObject by calling setInteractive again.

If you wish to only temporarily stop an object from receiving input then use disableInteractive instead, as that toggles the interactive state, where-as this erases it completely.

If you wish to resize a hit area, don't remove and then set it as being interactive. Instead, access the hitarea object directly and resize the shape being used. I.e.: sprite.input.hitArea.setSize(width, height) (assuming the shape is a Rectangle, which it is by default.)

setBlendMode(value)

Sets the Blend Mode being used by this Game Object.

This can be a const, such as Phaser.BlendModes.SCREEN, or an integer, such as 4 (for Overlay)

Under WebGL only the following Blend Modes are available:

  • ADD
  • MULTIPLY
  • SCREEN
  • ERASE (only works when rendering to a framebuffer, like a Render Texture)

Canvas has more available depending on browser support.

You can also create your own custom Blend Modes in WebGL.

Blend modes have different effects under Canvas and WebGL, and from browser to browser, depending on support. Blend Modes also cause a WebGL batch flush should it encounter a new blend mode. For these reasons try to be careful about the construction of your Scene and the frequency in which blend modes are used.

Parameters:
Name Type Description
value string | Phaser.BlendModes

The BlendMode value. Either a string or a CONST.
Since: 3.0.0
Inherited From:
Source: src/gameobjects/components/BlendMode.js (Line 79)

Parameters:
Name Type Description
x number

The horizontal coordinate of the vertex.
y number

Since: 3.0.0
Source: src/gameobjects/quad/Quad.js (Line 550)
Returns:

Type
Phaser.GameObjects.Quad

setData(key [, data])

Allows you to store a key value pair within this Game Objects Data Manager.

If the Game Object has not been enabled for data (via setDataEnabled) then it will be enabled before setting the value.

If the key doesn't already exist in the Data Manager then it is created.

sprite.setData('name', 'Red Gem Stone');

You can also pass in an object of key value pairs as the first argument:

sprite.setData({ name: 'Red Gem Stone', level: 2, owner: 'Link', gold: 50 });

To get a value back again you can call getData:

sprite.getData('gold');

Or you can access the value directly via the values property, where it works like any other variable:

sprite.data.values.gold += 50;

When the value is first set, a setdata event is emitted from this Game Object.

If the key already exists, a changedata event is emitted instead, along an event named after the key. For example, if you updated an existing key called PlayerLives then it would emit the event changedata-PlayerLives. These events will be emitted regardless if you use this method to set the value, or the direct values setter.

Please note that the data keys are case-sensitive and must be valid JavaScript Object property strings. This means the keys gold and Gold are treated as two unique values within the Data Manager.

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Description
key string | object

The key to set the value for. Or an object of key value pairs. If an object the data argument is ignored.
data * <optional>

The value to set for the given key. If an object is provided as the key this argument is ignored.

See:
Returns:

Type
Phaser.GameObjects.Quad

setDepth(value)

The depth of this Game Object within the Scene.

The depth is also known as the 'z-index' in some environments, and allows you to change the rendering order of Game Objects, without actually moving their position in the display list.

The depth starts from zero (the default value) and increases from that point. A Game Object with a higher depth value will always render in front of one with a lower value.

Setting the depth will queue a depth sort event within the Scene.

Parameters:
Name Type Description
value integer

The depth of this Game Object.
Since: 3.0.0
Inherited From:
Source: src/gameobjects/components/Depth.js (Line 58)
Returns:

This Game Object instance.

Type
Phaser.GameObjects.Quad

setFrame(frame)

Sets the frame this Game Object will use to render with.

The Frame has to belong to the current Texture being used.

It can be either a string or an index.

Calling setFrame will modify the width and height properties of your Game Object. It will also change the origin if the Frame has a custom pivot point, as exported from packages like Texture Packer.

Parameters:
Name Type Description
frame string | integer

The name or index of the frame within the Texture.
Since: 3.11.0
Overrides:
Source: src/gameobjects/quad/Quad.js (Line 90)
Returns:

This Game Object instance.

Type
Phaser.GameObjects.Quad

setInteractive( [shape] [, callback] [, dropZone])

Pass this Game Object to the Input Manager to enable it for Input.

Input works by using hit areas, these are nearly always geometric shapes, such as rectangles or circles, that act as the hit area for the Game Object. However, you can provide your own hit area shape and callback, should you wish to handle some more advanced input detection.

If no arguments are provided it will try and create a rectangle hit area based on the texture frame the Game Object is using. If this isn't a texture-bound object, such as a Graphics or BitmapText object, this will fail, and you'll need to provide a specific shape for it to use.

You can also provide an Input Configuration Object as the only argument to this method.

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Default Description
shape Phaser.Types.Input.InputConfiguration | any <optional>

Either an input configuration object, or a geometric shape that defines the hit area for the Game Object. If not specified a Rectangle will be used.
callback Phaser.Types.Input.HitAreaCallback <optional>

A callback to be invoked when the Game Object is interacted with. If you provide a shape you must also provide a callback.
dropZone boolean <optional>
 false

Should this Game Object be treated as a drop zone target?
Since: 3.0.0
Inherited From:
Source: src/gameobjects/GameObject.js (Line 373)
Returns:

This GameObject.

Type
Phaser.GameObjects.Quad

setMask(mask)

Sets the mask that this Game Object will use to render with.

The mask must have been previously created and can be either a GeometryMask or a BitmapMask. Note: Bitmap Masks only work on WebGL. Geometry Masks work on both WebGL and Canvas.

If a mask is already set on this Game Object it will be immediately replaced.

Masks are positioned in global space and are not relative to the Game Object to which they are applied. The reason for this is that multiple Game Objects can all share the same mask.

Masks have no impact on physics or input detection. They are purely a rendering component that allows you to limit what is visible during the render pass.

Parameters:
Name Type Description
mask Phaser.Display.Masks.BitmapMask | Phaser.Display.Masks.GeometryMask

The mask this Game Object will use when rendering.
Since: 3.6.2
Inherited From:

setRandomPosition( [x] [, y] [, width] [, height])

Sets the position of this Game Object to be a random position within the confines of the given area.

If no area is specified a random position between 0 x 0 and the game width x height is used instead.

The position does not factor in the size of this Game Object, meaning that only the origin is guaranteed to be within the area.

Parameters:

Type
Phaser.GameObjects.Quad

setScrollFactor(x [, y])

Sets the scroll factor of this Game Object.

The scroll factor controls the influence of the movement of a Camera upon this Game Object.

When a camera scrolls it will change the location at which this Game Object is rendered on-screen. It does not change the Game Objects actual position values.

A value of 1 means it will move exactly in sync with a camera. A value of 0 means it will not move at all, even if the camera moves. Other values control the degree to which the camera movement is mapped to this Game Object.

Please be aware that scroll factor values other than 1 are not taken in to consideration when calculating physics collisions. Bodies always collide based on their world position, but changing the scroll factor is a visual adjustment to where the textures are rendered, which can offset them from physics bodies if not accounted for in your code.

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Default Description
x number

The horizontal scroll factor of this Game Object.
y number <optional>
 x

The vertical scroll factor of this Game Object. If not set it will use the x value.

Returns:

This Game Object instance.

Type
Phaser.GameObjects.Quad

setSize(width, height)

Sets the internal size of this Game Object, as used for frame or physics body creation.

This will not change the size that the Game Object is rendered in-game. For that you need to either set the scale of the Game Object (setScale) or call the setDisplaySize method, which is the same thing as changing the scale but allows you to do so by giving pixel values.

If you have enabled this Game Object for input, changing the size will not change the size of the hit area. To do this you should adjust the input.hitArea object directly.

Parameters:
Name Type Description
width number

The width of this Game Object.
height number

The height of this Game Object.
Since: 3.0.0

setSizeToFrame(frame)

Sets the size of this Game Object to be that of the given Frame.

This will not change the size that the Game Object is rendered in-game. For that you need to either set the scale of the Game Object (setScale) or call the setDisplaySize method, which is the same thing as changing the scale but allows you to do so by giving pixel values.

If you have enabled this Game Object for input, changing the size will not change the size of the hit area. To do this you should adjust the input.hitArea object directly.

Parameters:
Name Type Description
frame Phaser.Textures.Frame

setState(value)

Sets the current state of this Game Object.

Phaser itself will never modify the State of a Game Object, although plugins may do so.

For example, a Game Object could change from a state of 'moving', to 'attacking', to 'dead'. The state value should typically be an integer (ideally mapped to a constant in your game code), but could also be a string. It is recommended to keep it light and simple. If you need to store complex data about your Game Object, look at using the Data Component instead.

Parameters:
Name Type Description
