Event when dragging over a sprite

[Claudiovc]

Hey there, I've been playing with Phaser since yesterday, it looks great!

 

My first experiment is going to be a simple Match-3 game and I need to know when the user is dragging a sprite over another one.

If I register to the following event, my function gets called when I hover though the sprites. However, that doesn't happen when I'm dragging a sprite around.

sprite.events.onInputOver(onTileOver, this);

Any tips on how i could achieve that?

I'd need that to give some feedback to the user - add an effect if the user can't release the tile there, e.g.

Thanks in advance!

Yes the dragged sprite would take the priority and the one below won't register. I suggest you do some kind of overlaps / bounds intersects test as the sprite is being dragged.

Ok, thanks Rich, I'll go with that approach.
