Version 2.0.4 - "Mos Shirare" - 29th April 2014

Updates

• Updated to Pixi.js 1.5.3
• Updated to latest p2.js - all commits from 0.5.0 to Apr 27th 2014.
• TypeScript definitions fixes and updates (thanks @clark-stevenson @metrofun @killalau)
• Timer has removed all use of local temporary vars in the core update loop.
• The Input.reset hard reset parameter is now passed down to the Keyboard and Key reset methods.
• AnimationManager.destroy now iterates through child animations calling destroy on all of them, avoiding a memory leak (thanks stauzs)
• AnimationManager.play will now call Animation.stop on the current animation before switching to the new one (thanks @nihakue, #713)
• ArcadePhysics.Body.phase is checked in postUpdate to prevent it from being called multiple times in a single frame.
• Group.setProperty will now check if the property exists before setting it, this applies to Group.setAll and anything else using setProperty internally.
• QuadTree.retrieve now checks to see if the given Sprite has a body before carrying on.
• ArcadePhysics.collideSpriteVsGroup checks if Sprite has a body before carrying on, now safely skips sub-groups or other non-Sprite group children.
• Group.remove now checks the child to see if it's a member of the root Group before removing it, otherwise Pixi throws an Error.
• The Emitter no longer checks if minParticleScale = maxParticleScale for the scale check, allowing for fixed scale particles again.
• The PIXI.AbstractFilter is now included in the Phaser Pixi build by default, allowing for easier use of external Pixi Filters.
• All Game Objects have a new property: destroyPhase (boolean) which is true if the object is in the process of being destroyed, otherwise false.
• If Tween.yoyo was true but repeat was 0 then it wouldn't yoyo. Now if yoyo is set, but not repeat, the repeat count gets set to 1 (thanks @hilts-vaughan, fix #744)
• RandomDataGenerator.integerInRange uses a new method of rounding the value to an integer to avoid distribution probability issues (thanks PhaserFan)
• Updated the Device little / big endianess check.
• Time has been updated so that physicsElapsed can never be zero (falls back to 1/60), also fixes p2 elapsed time bug (thanks @georgiee, fix #758)
• Input and Pointer now use the new ArrayList instead of a LinkedList, which resolve list item removable during callback issues.
• Input.reset no longer resets every interactive item it knows of, because they are removed during the destroy phase and can now persist between States if needed.
• Blank Tilemaps no longer create null tiles, but instead create Tile objects with an index of -1 which can be replaced and updated like any other tile.
• Tilemap.addTilesetImage will now raise a console.warn if you specify an invalid tileset key and not create the tileset rather than pick the default set.
• Math.smoothstep and Math.smootherstep have been updated to work regardless if a is > or < b (thanks @gre, fix #772)
• Text.updateText now sets the lineCap to round to avoid occassional font glitching issues in Chrome.
• Loader now uses XDomainRequest in IE9 to load JSON data to help with CORS issues.

New Features

• New Phaser Project Template specifically for requireJS in the resources/Project Templates folder (many thanks @ashatch)
• Loader now has an onFileStart event you can listen for (thanks @codevinsky, #705)
• Group.classType allows you to change the type of object that Group.create or createMultiple makes from Phaser.Sprite to your own custom class.
• Timer.clearPendingEvents will purge any events marked for deletion, this is run automatically at the start of the update loop.
• Device.crosswalk detects if your game is running under Intels Crosswalk XDK.
• Keyboard.reset has a new hard parameter which controls the severity of the reset. A soft reset doesn't remove any callbacks or event listeners.
• Key.reset has a new hard parameter which controls the severity of the reset. A soft reset doesn't remove any callbacks or event listeners.
• InputManager.resetLocked - If the Input Manager has been reset locked then all calls made to InputManager.reset, such as from a State change, are ignored.
• Group.resetCursor will reset the Group cursor back to the start of the group, or to the given index value.
• World.wrap will take a game object and if its x/y coordinates fall outside of the world bounds it will be repositioned on the opposite side, for a wrap-around effect.
• Device.support32bit is a new boolean that sets if the context supports 32bit pixel manipulation using array buffer views or not.
• P2.World now has its own pause and resume methods, so you can pause the physics simulation independent of your game (thanks @georgiee)
• Phaser.ArrayList is a new iterative object, similar in principal to a set data structure, but operating on a single array without modifying the object structure.
• Add scaleMode params to FilterTexture and RenderTexture (pixi.js update by @giraluna)
• Your State can now have a pauseUpdate method, which is called constantly when the game is paused.
• Timer.timeCap is a new setting allowing your Timers to protect against unexpectedly large delta timers (such as raf de-vis or CPU grind).
• Camera.unfollow allows you to easily unfollow a tracked object (thanks @alvinsight, #755)
• Animation.setFrame allows you to set the animation to a specific frame (thanks @adamholdenyall, #706)

Bug Fixes

• The main Timer loop could incorrectly remove a TimerEvent if a new one was added specifically during an event callback (thanks @garyyeap, fix #710)
• Fixed the use of the destroy parameter in Group.removeAll and related functions (thanks @AnderbergE, fix #717)
• P2.World.convertTilemap now correctly checks the collides parameter of the tiles as it converts them.
• Animation.destroy didn't correctly clear the onStart, onLoop and onComplete signals.
• StateManager.restart incorrectly skipped the first additional parameter after clearCache (thanks @mariusbrn, fix #722)
• Line.angle and Math.angleBetween used Math.atan2 arguments in the wrong order (thanks @jotson, fix #724)
• Group.destroy checks parent before removing (thanks @clark-stevenson, fix #733)
• Fixed typo in P2.World.setMaterial (thanks @OpherV, fix #739)
• InputHandler._setHandCursor private var wasn't properly set, meaning the hand cursor could sometimes remain (during destroy sequence for example)
• Destroying an object with an input handler during its onDown event would throw Signals dispatch errors (thanks @jflowers45, fix #746)
• Circle.distance used an incorrect Math call if you wanted a rounded distance value (thanks @OpherV, fix #745)
• Point.distance used an incorrect Math call if you wanted a rounded distance value (thanks @OpherV, fix #745)
• P2.Body.loadPolygon has been updated to correct center of mass issues (thanks @georgiee, fix #749)
• Game checks if window.console exists before using it (should fix IE9 issues when dev tools are closed), however it is still used deeper in Pixi.
• Masks now work when used in RenderTextures / CacheAsBitmap and Filters (pixi.js update)
• Stroked text sometimes got clipped (pixi.js update)
• Polygon.contains now works for coordinates to the left of the polygon (thanks @vilcans, fix #766)
• Game pause/resume could incorrectly increment paused Timers (thanks @georgiee, fix #759)
• Animations resuming from a pause no longer skip frames (thanks @merixstudio, fix #730)
