Creating RenderTexture from TileMapLayer

[coltonoscopy]

Hi all!

 

I've successfully created a scrolling TileMap using Phaser, but now I want to also show a minimap of the entire layer in the bottom right corner; I looked around and tried the following based on what info I could find about doing so:

minimap = game.add.renderTexture(210, 140, 'minimap');            minimap.renderXY(layer, 0, 0, true);            minimapSprite = game.add.sprite(1000, 510, minimap);            minimapSprite.bringToTop();

However, no minimap is rendering; any idea why? Thanks so much!

 

Best,

Colton

did you fix this? it's an old post...

 

you're not scaling it.. it might just be off screen... just because the renderTexture is small, I don't think means rendering a larger object to it will shrink it to fit.

 

have a look at my example

i'd like to see what you did if you got it working.

 

thanks,
