  • FlxTilemap: fixed possible crash during collision checks
  • FlxG.sound.play(): fixed volume parameter not working

3.3.0 (April 24, 2014)

  • Added flash gamepad support. This either requires a swf-player-version of 11.8 to be set or FLX_NO_GAMEPAD to be defined.
    • FlxGamepad.getAxis() has been split into getXAxis() and getYAxis() for consistency across targets
    • FlxGamepad.dpadUp / Down / Left / Right don't work in flash, use getButton() in conjunction with the IDs in the button ID classes instead
  • Added "tracker" window to the debugger which creates a Watch window with the most important properties of an object
    • Use FlxG.debugger.track(Object); to create a new tracker window
    • Use FlxG.debugger.addTrackerProfile() to add a profile for classes don't have one yet or override existing ones
    • Use the "track [object]" command to open a tracker window from the console
  • FlxCamera:
    • Added static defaultCameras array which is used by FlxBasics when their cameras array has not been set - previously the use of FlxG.cameras.list / all existing cameras was hardcoded
    • Fixed a bug where following a target would prevent you from setting the coordinates of the camera
  • Added pooling for FlxPoint, FlxVector, and FlxRect. Usage: var point = FlxPoint.get(); /* do stuff with point */ point.put(); // recycle point. FlxPoint.weak() should be used instead of get() when passing points into flixel functions, that way they'll be recycled automatically.
  • Debugger windows:
    • Fixed dragging of overlapping windows
    • Fixed the visibility of windows on native targets (now saving correctly)
    • Fixed resizing when moving the mouse to the left / above the window

  • Changed the default html5 backend to openfl-bitfive
    • Middle and right mouse events are now supported
    • Sounds are now supported

  • FlxText:
    • Added shadowOffset
    • Fixed the widthInc and heightInc of addFilter() which did not work at all previously
    • Separated visible and physical width by adding fieldWidth to fix a bug
    • Added autoSize that makes sure the entire text is displayed if true with wordWrap = false. Setting fieldWidth to 0 in the constructor is now allowed and activates this behaviour.
    • Fixed variation in height of empty texts
  • FlxSpriteUtil: added bound()
  • FlxSpriteGroup:
    • Added FlxTypedSpriteGroup, which can be used in the same way as FlxTypedGroup, but its type parameter is T:FlxSprite

  • Abstracted rendering into FLX_RENDER_TILE and FLX_RENDER_BLIT conditionals as opposed to being hardcoded based on the target

3.1.0 (February 7, 2014)

  • Refactor of FlxRandom
    • All functions are now deterministic and safe to use with replays
    • Due to the use of a new algorithm for pseudo-random number generation (a linear congruential generator) and a new seed type (integer instead of float values), old replays will have unpredictable results
    • FlxColorUtil.getRandomColor(), FlxArrayUtil.shuffle(), and FlxArrayUtil.getRandom() have been moved to FlxRandom.color(), FlxRandom.shuffleArray(), and FlxRandom.getObject(), respectively. The old functions are still in place but are marked as deprecated.

    • now the functions return the sprite / object to allow chaining
    • BUG: fixed null error in alphaMaskFlxSprite()
  • FlxTypedButton refactor
    • Callbacks are now set via the FlxButtonEvent objects, for example button.onDown.callback = someFunction;
    • The type of callback has been changed from Dynamic to Void->Void to avoid Reflection. This means you need to bind custom parameters to your callback function like so: callback = someFunction.bind(1); (more info)
    • new labelAlphas and labelOffsets arrays for more control
    • the highlight frame is now disabled by default on mobile
    • "swiping" is now possible (entering the button area while the input is pressed to press the button)

  • Added FlxBackdrop addon class
  • Added TaskManager addon (ported from AntHill: https://github.com/AntKarlov/Anthill-Framework)

  • Added FlxTrail class (thanks @crazysam)
  • Fixed ZoomCamera addon class
  • Change FlxEmitter behavior, so it can kill itself when all particles are dead
  • Fixed FlxCollision plugin, so all of it's method are working on flash, cpp and neko targets

  • Initial support for Haxe 2.10
  • Added basic support for multitouch (see FlxG.touchManager and multitouch example on github repo). Flash version requires Flash Player 10.1 now.
  • Compile fix for FlxPreloader on mac platform. Thanks to Talii for it.
  • Integrated tweening system from HaxePunk (Thank you, Matt Tuttle). All FlxBasic's subclasses have this functionality now. See addTween(), removeTween(), clearTweens() methods of FlxBasic instances and 'org.flixel.tweens' package.
  • Added basic support for Joystick input (See FlxG.joystickManager and org.flixel.system.input.Joystick and org.flixel.system.input.JoystickManager classes for details). I need someone to test it.

  • Made small optimizations in rendering for cpp target (the way it pushes and splices draw data)
  • Fixed pixelPerfectPointCheck() method from FlxCollision plugin
