Added arbitrary non-convex polygon support (only non-self intersecting) with ex.PolygonCollider(...).triangulate() which builds a new ex.CompositeCollider composed of triangles.
ex.IsometricTile now come with a ex.IsometricEntityComponent which can be applied to any entity that needs to be correctly sorted to preserve the isometric illusion
ex.IsometricEntitySystem generates a new z-index based on the elevation and y position of an entity with ex.IsometricEntityComponent
Added draw call sorting new ex.Engine({useDrawSorting: true}) to efficiently draw render plugins in batches to avoid expensive renderer switching as much as possible. By default this is turned on, but can be opted out of.
Added new parameter to ex.Raster({quality: 4}) to specify the internal scaling for the bitmap, this is useful for improving the rendering quality of small rasters due to sampling error.
Added new performance fallback configuration to ex.Engine for developers to help players experiencing poor performance in non-standard browser configurations
This will fallback to the Canvas2D rendering graphics context which usually performs better on non hardware accelerated browsers, currently postprocessing effects are unavailable in this fallback.
By default if a game is running at 20fps or lower for 100 frames or more after the game has started it will be triggered, the developer can optionally show a player message that is off by default.
vargame=newex.Engine({
...
configurePerformanceCanvas2DFallback: {allow: true,// opt-out of the fallbackshowPlayerMessage: true,// opt-in to a player pop-up messagethreshold: {fps: 20,numberOfFrames: 100}// configure the threshold to trigger the fallback}});
Added new ex.ParallaxComponent for creating parallax effects on the graphics, entities with this component are drawn differently and a collider will not be where you expect. It is not recommended you use colliders with parallax entities.
constactor=newex.Actor();// The actor will be drawn shifted based on the camera position scaled by the parallax factoractor.addComponent(newParallaxComponent(ex.vec(0.5,0.5)));
