can't delay at the start of a tween

[InsaneHero]

I can't find the change responsible in the commit logs, but until recently I was able to delay the start of a tween:

game.add.tween(this.tbt).delay(1000).to({alpha:1.0}, 500, Phaser.Easing.Linear.None, true);

After updating my dev branch today, this now fails in the delay function (the access of timeline[index].delay is invalid if index = 0 and timeline is an empty array).

this.timeline[index].delay = duration;

I suspect this must be a side-effect of some other recent tween changes.   I'll keep looking but maybe someone will go "aha" and know what the problem or fix is (/fingerscrossed).

Ah, ok... I just diffed the dev branch and my old stable version and I see that the entire approach to tweening has changed recently.  'timeline' didn't even exist previously.

I suspect that this is a corner case that wasn't caught during the change.

 

 

It looks like it might work if I just do the delay AFTER the .to

Yes you will need to either set the delay after creating one (or more) "to" tweens, or just use the delay parameter in to:

game.add.tween(this.tbt).to( { alpha:1.0 }, 500, "Linear", true, 1000);
