function not working

[Le Twitch]

Main.Game = function (game) {  };var squareA;        Main.Game.prototype = {        create: function() {        squareA = this.add.sprite(55, 370, 'colourSquare', 'red');                squareA.inputEnabled = true;                squareA.events.onInputDown.add(this.testFunction, this);    },        testFunction: function() {                console.log('it works');            }};

nothing happens when i click on the 'squareA' sprite. can't figure out why it doesn't work

This by all rights should work as far as I can see... Can you post this as a jsfiddle or Codepen example?

I just had a fast look, but i think must be related with the "scopes", you are calling:

this.add.sprite(55, 370, 'colourSquare', 'red');

and then "this":

this.testFunction

So, "this" refer to "game" or "Main.game" ??

If it's a state which it looks like it is Main.Game will have access to both. States have access to a number of helper objects http://docs.phaser.io/Phaser.State.html

Created a fiddle, basically copied your code and put in some boilerplate to get it working(the prototype is exactly the same), everything seems fine? http://jsfiddle.net/cZDz4/

Hmm, as I suspected Dumtard - It all looks fine code-wise. Twitch, do you have anything in your HTML that could be overlapping the game canvas? That's the only thing I can think of that would be causing this not to work.

i found the problem! i had "this.input.maxPointers = 1;" in boot.js

[lewster32]

That should still allow it to work I would've thought, since all that should stop working is multitouch?

i rewrote all my code for "Main.Game" and made sure everything worked properly every time i added a new line of code in, then i added "this.input.maxPointers = 1;" back into boot.js and everything is normal and it works. i cross referenced my new and old code and they we're both the same. so weird...

How bizarre. I reckon gremlins are at work here!
