My loading bar/progress bar solution

[Batzi 24]

So I noticed that a lot of people in here were asking about a loading/progress bar so I came up with my own solution.

 

Let me know what you think

var barGreen,barYellow,maxWidth,tween;function create(){    barGreen = game.add.graphics(200,300);    barGreen.beginFill(0xEAF516);    barGreen.drawRect(0,0,300,50);    barYellow = game.add.graphics(200,300);    barYellow.beginFill(0x4BFAF7);    barYellow.drawRect(0,0,300,50);        maxWidth = 300;    barYellow.width=0;        tween = game.add.tween(barYellow);    tween.to({width:maxWidth},1000);    tween.start();}

Here's the JSFiddle if you want to see what it looks like: http://jsfiddle.net/Batzi/op3grg2w/10/

Looks good man! Definitely gave me a better understanding on how the loading bar works. Thanks.

This is simpliest sample I've seen by now. Good work!

This is indeed maybe the simplest solution, but unfortunately it won't work for sprites that can't directly be scaled along x.

I don't get why people would struggle with load bars when all you need to do it just pass a sprite to the loader : http://phaser.io/docs/2.3.0/Phaser.Loader.html

 

The loader will crop the bar accordingly, regarding the % of downloaded assets. Basically you don't have anything to code.  ?

Well this is taking into account that no sprites are involved. The point of my code is to completely remove the need to use a sprite to crop. I needed it to do a progress bar for the game I am working on.
