How to generate random sprite in phaser

[ashebby]

I have a function 'randomTiles();' which is meant to generate random falling tiles (like rain drops) from the top of the page downwards, what happens is the tile are generated randomly from different areas of the game window, also this isn't working 'sprite1.body.setSize(50, 26, 0, 0);' I don't why.

here is what I have done

function releaseTiles() {

//sprite1 = game.add.sprite(300, 50, 'tile');
sprite1 = game.add.sprite((Math.random() * 20000), game.world.randomY, 'tile');
sprite1.name = 'tile';
game.physics.enable(sprite1, Phaser.Physics.ARCADE);
sprite1.body.velocity.y = 100;
sprite1.body.setSize(50, 26, 0, 0);

}

What are asking? Are you asking why 'sprite1.body.setSize(50, 26, 0, 0);' doesn't work?

 

And, out of curiosity, why are you using (Math.random() * 20000) instead of game.world.randomX? 20000 is way too big a number. Most of your sprites will spawn off screen.
