  February 16, 2016

  Restructures:

  • 🔄 Changed static inline vars to enums: (#998)
    • FlxCamera follow styles
    • FlxCamera shake modes
    • FlxText border styles
    • FlxTilemap auto-tiling options
    • FlxBar fill directions
    • FlxG.html5 browser types
  • 🚚 Moved FlxMath, FlxPoint, FlxVector, FlxRect, FlxAngle, FlxVelocity and FlxRandom to flixel.math
  • 🚚 Moved "typed" classes: (#1100)
    • FlxTypedGroup into FlxGroup.hx
    • FlxTypedSpriteGroup into FlxSpriteGroup.hx
    • FlxTypedEmitter into FlxEmitter.hx
    • FlxTypedButton into FlxButton.hx
  • ⚡️ The signature of update() functions was changed to update(elapsed:Float). The elapsed argument should be used instead of FlxG.elapsed. (#1188)

  Rendering:

  • ➕ Added flixel.FlxStrip which supports rendering via drawTriangles()
  • Added an experimental rendering method using drawTriangles() (enabled by defining FLX_RENDER_TRIANGLE, requires FlxG.renderTile to be true).
  • The tile renderer now uses Tilesheet.TILE_RECT instead of addTileRect()
  • Renderers are now distinguished by FlxG.renderMethod (FlxG.renderBlit / FlxG.renderTile for easy access) instead of defines (FLX_RENDER_BLIT / FLX_RENDER_TILE). This allows for a fallback to software rendering on certain targets if hardware rendering is not available. (#1668)

  flixel.FlxCamera:

  • ➕ added pixelPerfectRender as a global setting for sprites and tilemaps (#1060)
  • 0️⃣ pixelPerfectRender now defaults to false with FlxG.renderTile (#1065)
  • bounds -> minScrollX, maxScrollX, minScrollY and maxScrollY (null means unbounded) (#1070)
  • setBounds() -> setScrollBoundsRect() (#1070)
  • ➕ added setScrollBounds()
  • ➕ added targetOffset (#1056)
  • ➕ added scrollRect sprite which crops the camera's view when the camera is scaled
  • camera now scales from its center, not its top left corner
  • ⚡️ followLerp is now a range taking values from 0 to (60 / FlxG.updateFramerate) - the closer to zero the more lerp! (#1220)
  • ➕ added snapToTarget() (#1477)
  • 🛠 fade(): fixed FadeIn == true not working in a fade out callback (#1666)
  • 🚚 follow(): removed the Offset argument (#1056)

  • 🚦 signals:
    • split gameReset into pre/post signals
    • added preStateCreate (#1557)
  • 0️⃣ android: preventDefaultBackAction has been replaced by preventDefaultKeys
  • inputs: added resetOnStateSwitch
  • ➕ added FlxG.addPostProcess() / removePostProcess()
  • ➕ added resizeWindow()
  • ➕ Added filtersEnabled and setFilters() to FlxCamera and FlxGame (#1635)
  • 🏗 version now includes the commit SHA via a build macro

  flixel.FlxObject:

  • drawFrame() is no longer inline so it can be redefined in subclasses.
  • set_angle(): always change the prerotated animation angle to prevent delays
  • ✂ removed resetFrameBitmaps() method, since frames don't store bitmaps anymore. Set dirty to true to force the frame graphic to be regenerated in the next render loop.
  • ➕ added useFramePixels
  • setColorTransform()'s offset arguments now work with drawTiles rendering on OpenFL 3.6.0+ (#1705)
