phaser-tilemap-plus: Animated tiles, object layer based collision detection, custom properties and events for Tiled JSON maps

[colinvella]

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to share a new Phaser Plugin called phaser-tilemap-plus, that extends the tilemap loader and factory to support tile animations defined in the Tiled editor. It also allows you to implement collision detection against the map using polygons and rectangles within an object layer, enabling the use of sloped and curved surfaces. It will eventually also support custom properties and region-based events via the object layer.

You can access and build the library from GitHub or install it directly as a Node package via NPM.

Please note that it is still a work in progress, with features that are yet to be added and kinks to iron out.

Anyhow, let me know what you think!

how do you get the object layer properties from the individuals (cause I didn't saw it there though you might skip it by accident or something)

Check the documentation at https://www.npmjs.com/package/phaser-tilemap-plus and search for the text "Layer Custom Properties"

I created animations in tile map using phaser-tilemap-plus plugin and it works as expected.

But I am getting the following warning message in console,

• "No such layer name: Tile Layer 1

Is there any fix for the above warning message?

Thanks in advance.

You may be trying to refer to a layer called "Tile Layer 1" and you have no such layer in your map. However, it is hard for me to say without looking at your code.

I have never been able to make this plugin work. It won't go under the this.game.plugins object.
