Constructor

Phaser. TilemapParser

new TilemapParser()

Phaser.TilemapParser parses data objects from Phaser.Loader that need more preparation before they can be inserted into a Tilemap.

Source code: tilemap/TilemapParser.js (Line 13)

Public Properties

[static] INSERT_NULL : boolean

When scanning the Tiled map data the TilemapParser can either insert a null value (true) or a Phaser.Tile instance with an index of -1 (false, the default). Depending on your game type depends how this should be configured. If you've a large sparsely populated map and the tile data doesn't need to change then setting this value to true will help with memory consumption. However if your map is small, or you need to update the tiles (perhaps the map dynamically changes during the game) then leave the default value set.
