Excalibur 0.24.0

Breaking Changes

• Remove obsolete .extend() semantics in Class.ts as as well as related test cases.

Added

• Added new option for constructing bounding boxes. You can now construct with an options object rather than only individual coordinate parameters. (#1151)
• Added new interface for specifying the type of the options object passed to the bounding box constructor.
• Added the ex.vec(x, y) shorthand for creating vectors. (#1340)
• Added new event processed to Sound that passes processed string | AudioBuffer data. (#1474)
• Added new property duration to Sound and AudioInstance that exposes the track's duration in seconds when Web Audio API is used. (#1474)

Changed

• Animation no longer mutate underlying sprites, instead they draw the sprite using the animations parameters. This allows more robust flipping at runtime. (#1258)
• Changed obsolete decorator to only log the same message 5 times. (#1281)
• Switched to core-js based polyfills instead of custom written ones (#1214)
• Updated to TypeScript@3.6.4 and node 10 LTS build
• Sound.stop() now always rewinds the track, even when the sound is paused. (#1474)

Deprecated

• ex.Vector.magnitude() will be removed in v0.25.0, use ex.Vector.size(). (#1277)

Fixed

• Fixed Excalibur crashing when displaying both a tilemap and a zero-size actor (#1418)
• Fixed animation flipping behavior (#1172)
• Fixed actors being drawn when their opacity is 0 (#875)
• Fixed iframe event handling, excalibur will respond to keyboard events from the top window (#1294)
• Fixed camera to be vector backed so ex.Camera.x = ? and ex.Camera.pos.setTo(...) both work as expected(#1299)
• Fixed missing on/once/off signatures on ex.Pointer (#1345)
• Fixed sounds not being stopped when Engine.stop() is called. (#1476)
