Drag to spin an object

Free packv3.0.0-33DLogic

Drag an object to turn it, flick it to keep it spinning, snap it to a facing. The camera stays where the shot was framed and the subject turns under the player's hand.

This is a Free pack. Every phaser.io account can use it in their games.

Drag to spin an object: a screenshot of its demo
A note about these graphics

Expansion packs don't come with graphics. This screenshot is one way of drawing what the pack does, made for its demo: none of the sprites, tiles or backgrounds in it are in the pack.

That's by design. A pack is a game's logic, mechanics and effects, and it works with whatever art you give it. Some packs draw effects, backdrops or 3D scenes of their own, but none carries a game's sprites.

So the look is yours. Make the art on phaser.io, bring your own, or let your agent draw it in code: the same pack can look like anything.

The pack

turntable

function turntable(opts: TurntableOptions = {}): Pack<{ turntable: TurntableApi }>

The turntable pack: drag an object to spin it, flick it to keep it spinning, and let it settle. Requires a 3D world. Headless it does nothing — there is no pointer to read.

Types

TurntableApi

interface TurntableApi

game.turntable.

  • target: Handle | null — What spins. Set it to null to park the control without removing it.
  • yaw: number — Current turn, radians. Writing it moves the object at once.
  • pitch: number — Current tilt, radians, clamped.
  • readonly dragging: boolean — True while a hand is on it.
  • readonly coasting: boolean — True while it is still coasting after a flick.
  • enabled: boolean — Take the drag handling off and on.
  • autoSpin: number — Idle spin, radians/second; 0 is off.
  • reset(): void — Ease back to yaw 0, pitch 0.

TurntableOptions

interface TurntableOptions

How a turntable behaves.

  • sensitivity?: number — Radians per pixel dragged. Default 0.01.
  • inertia?: number — Seconds a flick takes to spin down; 0 stops it dead on release. Default 0.7.
  • tilt?: boolean — Allow tilting as well as turning. Default true.
  • minPitch?: number — Lowest tilt, radians. Default −1.2 — short of straight down, where a model reads as upside down.
  • maxPitch?: number — Highest tilt. Default 1.2.
  • autoSpin?: number — Idle spin, radians/second. Default 0 — off.
  • autoDelay?: number — Seconds of no input before the idle spin resumes. Default 2.
  • snap?: number — Snap to this many equally spaced facings on release; 0 is free. Default 0.
  • snapTime?: number — Seconds a snap takes to settle. Default 0.25.
  • enabled?: boolean — Start enabled. Default true.
