tile Hit From

Find out what type of tile the sprite has hit.

sprites.create(null).tileHitFrom(CollisionDirection.Left)

If your sprite is contacting a wall tile, you can find out what kind of tile it is. The tile index in the tile map is returned.

Parameters

  • direction: the direction check for a wall collision: left, right, top, or bottom.

Returns

  • a number which is the tile index for the wall tile contacting the sprite.

Example

Build a brick wall of tiles in the scene. Send a arrow sprite towards the wall. When the sprite hits the wall, say what type of tile it contacted.

let mySprite: Sprite = null
let flipImage: Image = null
scene.onHitTile(SpriteKind.Player, 2, function (sprite) {
    sprite.say("tile: " + sprite.tileHitFrom(CollisionDirection.Left))
})
scene.setTile(2, img`
