TilemapLayer getTileX/Y is undefined

[Todi]

Hey guys!

 

So, always I try to get the real coordinates of my entities in the map, using <layer>.getTileX/Y, I get this error message: "getTileX/Y is not a funcition". Or, when I try to log the function in the console, I receive the message "undefined". What I am doing wrong?

 

var layer = this.map.layer;console.log(layer.getTile); // undefined

var layer = this.map.layers[0];console.log(layer.getTileX); // undefinedconsole.log(layer.getTileY); // undefined

Thanks!

getTileX is a property of Phaser.Tilemap, not Phaser.TilemapLayer.

I am following the Phaser Docs, and there said the getTileX is a method from TilemapLayer!

What I am trying is get the coordinates from matrix for use in EasyStar plugin.

 

EDIT: Nevermind! I solved!

Ah yes so it is

 

In that case I think the problem is simply that you're using it as a property rather than a function. Should be `layer.getTileX(v)` where v is the pixel coordinate.

So, in the create method of the level, I got the createLayer return, that is a TilemapLayer, and now it works! What I done before, was get the layer (TilemapLayer) from <Tilemap>.layers[0] (my test path) but it didn't work, do you know why?

That's raw layer data, not an array of TilemapLayer objects.
