HUD - How to implement it

[plicatibu]

It seems that phase doesn't provide a HUD class.

 

I'm wondering which is the best way to implement it.

 

 

Regards.

No it's too game specific, anything we provide would only cater for a small set of games. I'd suggest you just create a Group and put all your HUD related items in it, then just keep that Group on the top of your game.

Almost all my problems developing with phaser is because my (lack of) knowledge of javascript (but I'm working to improve it).

 

I'll give it a try on groups.

 

Thank you.

Also, if you have a world which is larger than the stage, you will probably want to use

sprite.fixedToCamera = true;

to keep the hud anchored to the screen when the camera moves.

beeglebug, it's a really useful information.

 

Thank you.

That was my solution, just as rich says about using group, you can do a class extending a group as well:

 

function HUD(game, parent, name, useStage) {

    Phaser.Group.call(this, game, parent, name, useStage);

  

    //Your elements here.

};

 

HUD.prototype = Object.create( Phaser.Group.prototype);

HUD.prototype.constructor = HUD;

I don't know how to set the current focus to the group.
