Phaser.Animation - 2.2.2

new Animation(game, parent, name, frameData, frames, frameRate, loop, loop)

An Animation instance contains a single animation and the controls to play it. It is created by the AnimationManager, consists of Animation.Frame objects and belongs to a single Game Object such as a Sprite.

`frames`	Array.<number> \| Array.<string>			An array of numbers or strings indicating which frames to play in which order.
`frameRate`	number	<optional>	60	The speed at which the animation should play. The speed is given in frames per second.

Public Methods

<static> generateFrameNames(prefix, start, stop, suffix, zeroPad) → {string[]}

Really handy function for when you are creating arrays of animation data but it's using frame names and not numbers. For example imagine you've got 30 frames named: 'explosion0001-large' to 'explosion_0030-large' You could use this function to generate those by doing: Phaser.Animation.generateFrameNames('explosion', 1, 30, '-large', 4);

Parameters

Name	Type	Argument	Default	Description
`prefix`	string			The start of the filename. If the filename was 'explosion0001-large' the prefix would be 'explosion'.
`start`	number			The number to start sequentially counting from. If your frames are named 'explosion_0001' to 'explosion_0034' the start is 1.
`stop`	number			The number to count to. If your frames are named 'explosion_0001' to 'explosion_0034' the stop value is 34.
`suffix`	string	<optional>	''	The end of the filename. If the filename was 'explosion_0001-large' the prefix would be '-large'.
`zeroPad`	number	<optional>	0	The number of zeroes to pad the min and max values with. If your frames are named 'explosion_0001' to 'explosion_0034' then the zeroPad is 4.

Returns

string[] -

An array of framenames.

Source code: animation/Animation.js, line 732

complete()

Called internally when the animation finishes playback. Sets the isPlaying and isFinished states and dispatches the onAnimationComplete event if it exists on the parent and local onComplete event.

Source code: animation/Animation.js, line 569

destroy()

Cleans up this animation ready for deletion. Nulls all values and references.

Source code: animation/Animation.js, line 541

next(quantity)

Advances by the given number of frames in the Animation, taking the loop value into consideration.

Parameters

Name	Type	Argument	Default	Description
`quantity`	number	<optional>	1	The number of frames to advance.

Source code: animation/Animation.js, line 430

onPause()

Called when the Game enters a paused state.

Source code: animation/Animation.js, line 328

onResume()

Called when the Game resumes from a paused state.

play(frameRate, loop, killOnComplete) → {Phaser.Animation}

Plays this animation.

Parameters

Name	Type	Argument	Default	Description
`frameRate`	number	<optional>	null	The framerate to play the animation at. The speed is given in frames per second. If not provided the previously set frameRate of the Animation is used.
`loop`	boolean	<optional>	false	Should the animation be looped after playback. If not provided the previously set loop value of the Animation is used.
`killOnComplete`	boolean	<optional>	false	If set to true when the animation completes (only happens if loop=false) the parent Sprite will be killed.

Returns

Phaser.Animation -

A reference to this Animation instance.

Source code: animation/Animation.js, line 156

previous(quantity)

Moves backwards the given number of frames in the Animation, taking the loop value into consideration.

restart()

Sets this animation back to the first frame and restarts the animation.

setFrame(frameId, useLocalFrameIndex)

Sets this animations playback to a given frame with the given ID.

Parameters

Name	Type	Argument	Default	Description
`frameId`	string \| number	<optional>		The identifier of the frame to set. Can be the name of the frame, the sprite index of the frame, or the animation-local frame index.
`useLocalFrameIndex`	boolean	<optional>	false	If you provide a number for frameId, should it use the numeric indexes of the frameData, or the 0-indexed frame index local to the animation.

Source code: animation/Animation.js, line 239

stop(resetFrame, dispatchComplete)

Stops playback of this animation and set it to a finished state. If a resetFrame is provided it will stop playback and set frame to the first in the animation. If dispatchComplete is true it will dispatch the complete events, otherwise they'll be ignored.

Parameters

`resetFrame`	boolean	<optional>	false	If true after the animation stops the currentFrame value will be set to the first frame in this animation.
`dispatchComplete`	boolean	<optional>	false	Dispatch the Animation.onComplete and parent.onAnimationComplete events?

Updates this animation. Called automatically by the AnimationManager.
