Image

Image drawing.

Construction

const image = new Image(path, mode?, async_list?);

const imageVRAM = new Image("owl.png", VRAM); 

info

path: Path to the file, E.g.: "images/test.png".
mode: Choose between storing the image between RAM or VRAM, default value is RAM.
async_list: Gets a ImageList object, which is a asynchronous image loading list, if you want to load images in the background.

width, height: Image drawing size, default value is the original image size.
startx, starty: Beginning of the area that will be drawn from the image, the default value is 0.0.
endx, endy: End of the area that will be drawn from the image, the default value is the original image size.
angle: Define image rotation angle, default value is 0.0.
color: Define image tinting, default value is Color.new(255, 255, 255, 128).
filter: Choose between LINEAR or NEAREST, default value is NEAREST.
size: Returns image real size occupied in memory.
bpp: Returns image bits per-pixel qantity.
delayed: If true, your texture was loaded in RAM, else, VRAM.
pixels: The image pixel ArrayBuffer.
palette: If is a palette image, it has a palette ArrayBuffer right here.

Draw loaded image onscreen(call it every frame). Example: image.draw(15.0, 100.0);

draw(x, y);

If your image has 24 bits per-pixel (aka RGB), you can use this to make it 16 bits per-pixel, saving some memory!

optimize();

Returns true if an asynchronous image was successfully loaded in memory.

ready();

const loaded = image.ready();  

Load and manage multiple images while your code is running, multithreaded loading!

This constructor creates a new thread and a queue to load images in background, avoid building multiple ImageList objects.

const async_list = new ImageList(); 

This method starts the thread and loads added images on the queue.

async_list.process();
