A way to do one input register for a keypress (ondown, not onhold kinda thing)

[agmcleod]

Wondering if there's a way to detect input on a keypress, and only register it again if the user releases and presses the key a second time. Can be useful for things like UI, or certain player interactions. Looking at the docs, I don't believe there's a specific method for this.

Yes, you can! Add these two lines in your create function. It will call fooFunction once every time the space key is pressed.

var space_key = this.game.input.keyboard.addKey(Phaser.Keyboard.SPACEBAR);space_key.onDown.add(this.fooFunction, this);

Ah thanks very much!
