Methods

addChild(child)

Adds a child node to the node instance. If a child already has a parent, it will be unparented first.
Parameters:
Name Type Description
child Node Child node.

drawExplicitly()

Explicitly issues a draw call for the node instance.

equals(node) → {bool}

Checks whether the node instances are same.
Parameters:
Name Type Description
node Node Node instance.
Returns:
True if same, false otherwise.
Type
bool

getChild(param) → {Node}

Gets the child node by index or name.
Parameters:
Name Type Description
param uint | string Child node index or child node name.
Returns:
Child node.
Type
Node

hasFacePositionComponent() → {bool}

Checks whether the node has a Face Position component.
Returns:
True if the node has a Face Position component, false otherwise.
Type
bool

performRayCasting(screenCoordinatesopt, shouldPerformRecursivelyopt)

Performs ray casting for the node instance.
Parameters:
Name Type Attributes Description
screenCoordinates Vector2 <optional>
 Screen position from which the ray should be cast.
shouldPerformRecursively bool <optional>
 Whether the intersection checking should be performed on the descendants of the node instance.

removeChild(param)

Removes a child node from the node instance.
Parameters:
Name Type Description
param uint | string | Node Child node index, child node name or child node.

removeFromParent()

Removes the node from its parent.

toString() → {string}

Gets the string representation of the node.
Returns:
Node string representation.
Type
string
Examples
// Outputs '[Node ""]' to the debug console.
var node = new Node();
Debug.log(node.toString());
// Outputs '[Node "node_234"]' to the debug console.
var node = new Node(2, 'node_234');
Debug.log(node.toString());
