Description:

The Game Object Over Input Event.

This event is dispatched by the Input Plugin belonging to a Scene if a pointer moves over any interactive Game Object.

Listen to this event from within a Scene using: this.input.on('gameobjectover', listener).

To receive this event, the Game Objects must have been set as interactive. See GameObject.setInteractive for more details.

To listen for this event from a specific Game Object, use the GAMEOBJECT_POINTER_OVER event instead.

The event hierarchy is as follows:

  1. GAMEOBJECT_POINTER_OVER
  2. GAMEOBJECT_OVER
  3. POINTER_OVER

With the top event being dispatched first and then flowing down the list. Note that higher-up event handlers can stop the propagation of this event.

The Pointer responsible for triggering this event.

gameObject Phaser.GameObjects.GameObject

The Game Object the pointer moved over.
