How to pass scope into inline function?

[jjwallace]

Uncaught ReferenceError: tempScope is not defined

creature[e].anim.onLoop.add(function(tempScope){
         console.log("Loops");
                                        
         console.log('animation complete');
         //creature[e].anim.remove();
         tempScope.loadTexture('organism'+tempScope.varType);
         //temp scope = this = creature[e] ??         
                                        
         tempScope.angle *= -1;
         tempScope.x = -1000;
         tempScope.y = tempScope.world.randomY;
         tempScope.varSpeed = Math.floor((Math.random() * 4) + 1);
                                        
}, this);

`tempScope` is a parameter of the function, if this parameter is not passed to the function then its reference becomes undefined, if you try and operate on it then the runtime will throw an error.

Whatever `creature[e].anim.onLoop.add` is doing with the callback you supplied, it isnt passing anything to the function.

Where does tempScope come from? Is it just outside that code you pasted? If it is, you can just use the value inside the closure.
