fps drop to 14 when drawing in update function

[tproper]

I'm using Phaser2 to make a simple game.

When I set the game width and height to these:

var Screen_Width = window.innerWidth * window.devicePixelRatio;
var Screen_Height = window.innerHeight * window.devicePixelRatio;

The game runs really slow on my iPhone. What is the problem?

Constantly resizing the window every frame is computationally expensive no matter the framework. As a solution, instead of doing this every frame, only do this when the window is resized. Here is a bit of code that may help:

window.addEventListener('resize', <RESIZE_METHOD>);

Possibly the canvas is just too big (in pixels).

Thanks. I figured it out. It was because I was doing something stupid in Phaser. I didn't really understand that you create multiple graphics objects for drawing multiple things. Instead I had one graphic object drawing everything and it worked sometimes and not other times.

Thanks again!
