Disable respawn on leaving viewport

Recommended Posts

I have a portion of the game when the camera follows an entity (a taxi), not the main player, as it moves across the screen. The taxi is of type game.VehicleEntity which extends me.Entity.

me.game.viewport.follow(entity, me.game.viewport.AXIS.BOTH);

As the entity moves left, the camera follows it, which is great. But it reaches a point when the screen fades out and respawns the entity in the center of screen and breaks the game.

1) If the viewport is following the entity, how is the engine determining that it is out of bounds?

2) How can I disable respawning if the entity "leaves" whatever bounds

2 more things :

* first your game is really looking awesome so far :)

* in the latest 6.0 version of melonJS we added a camera damping features that really help in smoothing camera movements

// set the camera to follow this renderable on both axis, and enable damping
me.game.viewport.follow(this, me.game.viewport.AXIS.BOTH, 0.1);
