Constructor

Phaser. Events

new Events(sprite)

The Events component is a collection of events fired by the parent game object.

Phaser uses what are known as 'Signals' for all event handling. All of the events in this class are signals you can subscribe to, much in the same way you'd "listen" for an event.

For example to tell when a Sprite has been added to a new group, you can bind a function to the onAddedToGroup signal:

sprite.events.onAddedToGroup.add(yourFunction, this);

Where yourFunction is the function you want called when this event occurs.

For more details about how signals work please see the Phaser.Signal class.

The Input-related events will only be dispatched if the Sprite has had inputEnabled set to true and the Animation-related events only apply to game objects with animations like Phaser.Sprite.
