Description:

Find the angle of a segment from (point1.x, point1.y) -> (point2.x, point2.y).

The difference between this method and Phaser.Math.Angle.BetweenPoints is that this assumes the y coordinate

travels down the screen.

BetweenY

staticBetweenY(x1, y1, x2, y2)

Description:

Find the angle of a segment from (x1, y1) -> (x2, y2).

The difference between this method and Phaser.Math.Angle.Between is that this assumes the y coordinate

travels down the screen.

Parameters:

nametypeoptionaldescription
x1numberNoThe x coordinate of the first point.
y1numberNoThe y coordinate of the first point.
x2numberNoThe x coordinate of the second point.

CounterClockwise

staticCounterClockwise(angle)

Description:

Takes an angle in Phasers default clockwise format and converts it so that

0 is North, 90 is West, 180 is South and 270 is East,

therefore running counter-clockwise instead of clockwise.

You can pass in the angle from a Game Object using:


var converted = CounterClockwise(gameobject.rotation);

All values for this function are in radians.

Parameters:

nametypeoptionaldescription
anglenumberNoThe angle to convert, in radians.

Returns: number - The converted angle, in radians.

Source: src/math/angle/CounterClockwise.js#L9
Since: 3.16.0


GetClockwiseDistance

staticGetClockwiseDistance(angle1, angle2)

Description:

Gets the shortest nonnegative angular distance from angle1 to angle2.

Parameters:

nametypeoptionaldescription
angle1numberNoThe starting angle in radians.
angle2numberNoThe target angle in radians.

Returns: number - The distance in radians, in the range [0, 2pi).

Source: src/math/angle/GetClockwiseDistance.js#L9
Since: 4.0.0


GetCounterClockwiseDistance

staticGetCounterClockwiseDistance(angle1, angle2)

Description:

Gets the shortest nonpositive angular distance from angle1 to angle2.

Parameters:

nametypeoptionaldescription
angle1numberNoThe starting angle in radians.
angle2numberNoThe target angle in radians.

Returns: number - The distance in radians, in the range (-2pi, 0].

Source: src/math/angle/GetCounterClockwiseDistance.js#L11
Since: 4.0.0


GetShortestDistance

staticGetShortestDistance(angle1, angle2)

Description:

Gets the shortest signed angular distance from angle1 to angle2.

A positive distance is a clockwise rotation.

A negative distance is a counter-clockwise rotation.

For calculation in degrees use Phaser.Math.Angle.ShortestBetween instead.

Parameters:

nametypeoptionaldescription
angle1numberNoThe first angle in radians.
angle2numberNoThe second angle in radians.

Returns: number - The distance in radians, in the range [-pi, pi).

Source: src/math/angle/GetShortestDistance.js#L9
Since: 4.0.0


Normalize

staticNormalize(angle)

Description:

Normalize an angle to the [0, 2pi] range.

Parameters:

nametypeoptionaldescription
anglenumberNoThe angle to normalize, in radians.

Returns: number - The normalized angle, in radians.

Source: src/math/angle/Normalize.js#L7
Since: 3.0.0


Random

staticRandom()

Description:

Returns a random angle in the range [-pi, pi].

Returns: number - The angle, in radians.

Source: src/math/angle/Random.js#L10
Since: 3.23.0


RandomDegrees

staticRandomDegrees()

Description:

Returns a random angle in the range [-180, 180].

Returns: number - The angle, in degrees.

Reverse

staticReverse(angle)

Description:

Reverse the given angle.

Parameters:

nametypeoptionaldescription
anglenumberNoThe angle to reverse, in radians.

Returns: number - The reversed angle, in radians.

Source: src/math/angle/Reverse.js#L9
Since: 3.0.0


RotateTo

staticRotateTo(currentAngle, targetAngle, [lerp])

Description:

Rotates currentAngle towards targetAngle, taking the shortest rotation distance. The lerp argument is the amount to rotate by in this call.

Parameters:

nametypeoptionaldefaultdescription
currentAnglenumberNoThe current angle, in radians.
targetAnglenumberNoThe target angle to rotate to, in radians.
lerpnumberYes0.05The lerp value to add to the current angle.

Returns: number - The adjusted angle.

Source: src/math/angle/RotateTo.js#L9
Since: 3.0.0


ShortestBetween

staticShortestBetween(angle1, angle2)

Description:

Gets the shortest angle between angle1 and angle2.

Both angles must be in the range -180 to 180, which is the same clamped

range that sprite.angle uses, so you can pass in two sprite angles to

this method and get the shortest angle back between the two of them.

The angle returned will be in the same range. If the returned angle is

greater than 0 then it's a counter-clockwise rotation, if < 0 then it's

a clockwise rotation.

For calculation in radians use Phaser.Math.Angle.GetShortestDistance instead.

Parameters:

nametypeoptionaldescription
angle1numberNoThe first angle in the range -180 to 180.
angle2numberNoThe second angle in the range -180 to 180.

Returns: number - The shortest angle, in degrees. If greater than zero it's a counter-clockwise rotation.

Source: src/math/angle/Wrap.js#L9
Since: 3.0.0


WrapDegrees

staticWrapDegrees(angle)

Description:

Wrap an angle in degrees.

Wraps the angle to a value in the range of -180 to 180.
