So I'm try to get my enemy sprite to follow a motion path and depending on direction the sprite will change animation. So turning left will show the left side, moving up shows its back and moving down shows its face. I can't seem to get it to work, through hours of struggling with it. any help would be appreciated. Here is my code. I almost had it working with prototype, but the final game will be built in this format. /* * initalise Phaser framework with width:960px, height:540px */var game = new Phaser.Game(960, 540, Phaser.AUTO, 'gameContainer', { preload: preload, create: create, update: update, });/* * Preload runs before the game starts. Assets such as images and sounds such be preloaded here. * A webserver is required to load assets. * * Also in this function we set game scale so it full browser width. */function preload() { // set to scale to full browser width this.scale.scaleMode = Phaser.ScaleManager.SHOW_ALL; this.scale.parentIsWindow = true; //set the background color so can confirm the game renders in the browser this.stage.backgroundColor = '#4488cc';this.game.renderer.renderSession.roundPixels = true; //preload images & sounds //game.load.image('key', 'folder/filename.png');//this.load.image('nazi', 'image/nazi.png');game.load.spritesheet('nazi', 'images/nazi.png', 128, 128, 6);this.bmd = null; this.alien = null;this.mode = 0;//Use this website to set enemy movements http://phaser.io/waveforms.
