Phaser.js: How to get or remove all sprites in one scene

Question

I used to handle a group of sprites by push them into an array or sprite group which is build-in class in the Phaser. But I am seeking another simple way could get or remove all sprites in an scene. Does anyone have any idea to resolve this? Thanks a lot!

Answer 1

The Scene has a property children (link to documentation)

You can get all Sprites, with the command:

// where this = the current scene
let allSprites = this.children.list.filter(x => x instanceof Phaser.GameObjects.Sprite);

And then remove/destroy them all, like this:

allSprites.forEach(x => x.destroy());

Just iterating through the list of sprites, and calling the destroy function on each object.
