The Displacement FX Controller.

This FX controller manages the displacement effect for a Game Object.

The displacement effect is a visual technique that alters the position of pixels in an image or texture based on the values of a displacement map. This effect is used to create the illusion of depth, surface irregularities, or distortion in otherwise flat elements. It can be applied to characters, objects, or backgrounds to enhance realism, convey movement, or achieve various stylistic appearances.

A Displacement effect is added to a Game Object via the FX component:

const sprite = this.add.sprite();

sprite.preFX.addDisplacement();
sprite.postFX.addDisplacement();

Constructor:

new Displacement(gameObject, [texture], [x], [y])

Parameters:

name type arguments Default description
gameObject Phaser.GameObjects.GameObject

A reference to the Game Object that has this fx.

texture string <optional> '__WHITE'

The unique string-based key of the texture to use for displacement, which must exist in the Texture Manager.

x number <optional> 0.005

The amount of horizontal displacement to apply. A very small float number, such as 0.005.

y number <optional> 0.005
