TileSprite with Atlas

[jonbon]

Hi,

 

I think there is a bug with TileSprite when using a frame of a sprite atlas instead of a single image. When I try to do this, the whole sprite atlas gets repeated instead of the desired frame.

 

So when I do:

this.game.add.tileSprite(0, 0, 800, 600, 'generalAtlas','pitchTexture1.png');

 

I get the whole atlas repeating.

 

I checked that it's not a problem with my atlas by trying the same thing but in a regular Sprite:

this.game.add.sprite(0, 0, 'generalAtlas','pitchTexture1.png');

 

This works fine.

 

Is this a bug? Or am I doing something wrong?

 

Thanks

Actually it's both correct and a bug The bug is that Phaser shouldn't let you set a frame from the atlas, and should require you to set the image only. So I will remove the frame parameter now. The correct part is the way it repeats the whole image.

 Ah, ok, it would be quite useful to be able to use an atlas frame as a repeatable image but at least I now know i'm not missing something.

 

Thanks.

Yeah it would, but the WebGL renderer just isn't set-up to cope with that kind of use. In Canvas it's easier, but the aim is to keep consistency across both renderers.
