Sprite FactorySpriteFactory.Sprite.animateOffCamera
C#: bool animateOffCamera
JS: var animateOffCamera : boolean
Description
Determines whether the Sprite continues animating when not visible by a camera.
True = Continue animating when not visible by any camera.
False = Animation does not take place when not visible by any camera.
Note that all frame-dependent functions will also be affected such as frame events, so if you have, for example a walk cycle with footstep sounds attached to frame events, the footsteps will cease if animateOffCamera = false and the Sprite exits the viewport. Animated colliders and animated locators are affected as well.
Note that Sprite display meshes are never updated when not visible by a camera, so mesh vertices and uvs are not updated saving processing time regardless of this variable's setting.
