Camera position and object positioning
Hi,
I'm developing a multiplayer 2D shooter game with pixi.js and there's a few questions I have (more will follow in the future :-p).
1. I'm having issues making the view follow the user (the game area spans beyond the view portal). I've tried adjusting the stage pivot point to the target (player) position, but this gives very bad results (e.g. messes up the coordinates, is laggy, etc):
this.stage.pivot.x = (this.user.position.x - window.innerWidth/2);
this.stage.pivot.y = (this.u
you're correct on using pivot.
stage.pivot.x = user.position.x;
stage.pivot.y = user.position.y;
stage.position.x = renderer.width/2;
stage.position.y = renderer.height/2;
What do you mean its laggy? It works just fine in all of my projects, morever its recommended implementation of camera for PIXI. That way you can zoom in and out from center. Imagine "position" as position of container and "pivot" as position of camera inside of it. You just pin outer "position" to inner "pivot".
