A script that can be tied to an FlxBasic. Create a scripted class that extends FlxBasic to use this.

Static methods

staticinit(clsName:String):ScriptedFlxBasic

Initializes a scripted class instance using the given scripted class name and constructor arguments.

staticlistScriptClasses():Array<String>

Returns a list of all the scripted classes which extend this class.

staticscriptStaticCall(clsName:String, funcName:String):Dynamic

Call a custom static function on a scripted class, by the given name, with the given arguments.

staticscriptStaticGet(clsName:String, fieldName:String):Dynamic

Retrieves a custom static variable on a scripted class, by the given name.

@:value({ fieldValue : null })staticscriptStaticSet(clsName:String, fieldName:String, ?fieldValue:Dynamic):Dynamic

Sets the value of a custom static variable on a scripted class, by the given name.

Constructor

new()

Methods

destroy():Void

Polymod HScriptedClass override of destroy.

WARNING: A destroyed FlxBasic can't be used anymore. It may even cause crashes if it is still part of a group or state. You may want to use kill() instead if you want to disable the object temporarily only and revive() it later.

This function is usually not called manually (Flixel calls it automatically during state switches for all add()ed objects).

Override this function to null out variables manually or call destroy() on class members if necessary. Don't forget to call super.destroy()!

draw():Void

Polymod HScriptedClass override of draw.

Override this function to control how the object is drawn. Doing so is rarely necessary, but can be very useful.

getCameras():Array<FlxCamera>

Polymod HScriptedClass override of getCameras.

The cameras that will draw this. Use this.cameras to set specific cameras for this object, otherwise the container's cameras are used, or the container's container and so on. If there is no container, say, if this is inside FlxGroups rather than a FlxContainer then the default draw cameras are returned.

getDefaultCamera():FlxCamera

Polymod HScriptedClass override of getDefaultCamera.

The main camera that will draw this. Use this.cameras to set specific cameras for this object, otherwise the container's camera is used, or the container's container and so on. If there is no container, say, if this is inside FlxGroups rather than a FlxContainer then FlxG.camera is returned.

kill():Void

Polymod HScriptedClass override of kill.

Handy function for "killing" game objects. Use reset() to revive them. Default behavior is to flag them as nonexistent AND dead. However, if you want the "corpse" to remain in the game, like to animate an effect or whatever, you should override this, setting only alive to false, and leaving exists true.

revive():Void

Polymod HScriptedClass override of revive.

Handy function for bringing game objects "back to life". Just sets alive and exists back to true. In practice, this function is most often called by FlxObject#reset().

@:value({ funcArgs : null })scriptCall(funcName:String, ?funcArgs:Array<Dynamic>):Dynamic

Calls a function of the scripted class with the given name and arguments.

scriptGet(varName:String):Dynamic

Retrieves the value of a local variable of a scripted class.

@:value({ varValue : null })scriptSet(varName:String, ?varValue:Dynamic):Dynamic

Directly modifies the value of a local variable of a scripted class.

update(elapsed:Float):Void

Polymod HScriptedClass override of update.

Override this function to update your class's position and appearance. This is where most of your game rules and behavioral code will go.

Inherited Variables

Defined by FlxBasic

@:value(idEnumerator++)ID:Int = idEnumerator++

A unique ID starting from 0 and increasing by 1 for each subsequent FlxBasic that is created.

@:value(true)active:Bool = true

Controls whether update() is automatically called by FlxState/FlxGroup.

@:value(true)alive:Bool = true

Useful state for many game objects - "dead" (!alive) vs alive. kill() and revive() both flip this switch (along with exists, but you can override that).

camera:FlxCamera

Gets or sets the first camera of this object.

cameras:Array<FlxCamera>

This determines on which FlxCameras this object will be drawn. If it is null / has not been set, it uses the list of default draw targets, which is controlled via FlxG.camera.setDefaultDrawTarget as well as the DefaultDrawTarget argument of FlxG.camera.add.

read onlycontainer:Null<FlxContainer>

The parent containing this basic, typically if you check this recursively you should reach the state

@:value(true)exists:Bool = true
