class: Console

[19:7] extends: Pane

Wraps FXGL's Console (com.almasb.fxgl.dev.Console), a Pane subclass that renders the developer console (text output area, command input field, built-in help / clear / exit / set / vars commands). Owned by the DevService; not normally constructed by game code. The Pane base means it can be added to any JavaFX layout via .obj when used outside the engine's overlay (mostly for tests).

Methods

Console (bool Construct = true)

Creates a new Console. Pass false to construct an empty wrapper for adopt; the default (true) instantiates the engine class, which requires the FXGL UI factory to be available.
- @p Construct is true to instantiate immediately, false for an empty wrapper.
adopt (object Ajo)

Wraps an existing Console AussomJavaObject.
- @p Ajo is an AussomJavaObject around a Console.
- @r A new wrapper.
isOpen ()

Returns true while the console is attached to a scene.
- @r A bool.
open ()

Opens the console (adds it to the running GameScene's UI layer and disables normal input registration).
- @r this object
close ()

Closes the console (removes it from the GameScene UI layer and re-enables input registration).
- @r this object
pushMessage (string Message)

Appends a message to the console output (added on the JavaFX UI thread).
- @p Message is the line of text to add.
- @r this object
