Namespace: ticker

ticker

Tickers provide periodic callbacks based on a clock. Your game update logic will generally be run in response to a tick once per frame. You can have multiple tickers in use at one time.

import { Ticker } from 'pixi.js';

const ticker = new Ticker();
ticker.add((ticker) => {
   // do something every frame
});
ticker.start();

// or use the shared ticker instance *
Ticker.shared.add((ticker) => {
  // do something every frame
});
