TileMap always returns 0 for getWidth() and getHeight()

brendanh

I've just started using TileMaps, and they render fine, but I want to collect events on them, and tilemap:hitTestPoint(x,y) always returns false. After a bit of digging, I discovered that tilemap:getWidth() and tilemap:getHeight() are always returning 0, so I guess this is affecting the bounds calculation for hitTestPoint().

ohh.. exactly as you said. thank you for reporting. now I'm updating the tilemap implementation.

Just as an aside how do you know about these methods?

When i look at the reference docs there is no mention of hitTestPoint, getWidth and getHeight I must be missing something!

Cheers

You see, TileMap inherits from Sprite (in docs TileMap > Sprite), it means it has all Sprite methods
