Constructors

constructor

Properties

assets

assets: AssetDatabase

Deprecated

AssetDataBase is deprecated

domElement

domElement: HTMLElement

the HTML element

Optional hash

hash?: string

used to append to loaded assets

isManagedExternally

isManagedExternally: boolean = false

When the renderer or camera are managed by an external process (e.g. when running in r3f context)

isPaused

isPaused: boolean = false

set to true to pause the update loop. You can receive an event for it in your components. Note that script updates will not be called when paused

runInBackground

runInBackground: boolean = false

When enabled the application will run while not visible on the page

Optional targetFrameRate

targetFrameRate?: number | {
    value?: number;
}

Set to the target framerate you want your application to run in (you can use ?stats to check the fps) Set to undefined if you want to run at the maximum framerate
