How do I enable FlxMouseControl?

[JasperHorn]

I want to use sprites that can be clicked on. FlxExtendedSprite offers this functionality, but when I try to call extendedSprite.enableMouseClicks(true) I get the following error:

FlxExtendedSprite.enableMouseClicks called but FlxMouseControl plugin not activated

I was unable to find the proper way to add this plugin, but the most likely option seemed to be this:

FlxG.plugins.add(new FlxMouseControl());

However, this gives its own error:

flixel_FlxG.plugins.add_flixel_addons_plugin_FlxMouseControl is not a function

How do I enable this plugin?

So eh... I think the problem resolved itself.

I implemented the clicking myself - based on code from an old project (which I never got too far with, andit's been years, so I still very much feel like I'm a Haxe(Flixel) beginner) - the FlxExtentedSprite's doesn't appear to be too special anyway . And then I realized that the code for adding the plugin was still in there, yet the error wasn't showing up anymore. So I went back to using the FlxExtendedSprite and now that just works.

I don't quite know what happened. I suspect the compilation must not entirely have gone right somehow.

I believe FlxMouseControl is an old leftover from the Flash version of flixel (since the doc mentions photonstorm, who worked on the flash version) and less maintained than FlxMouseEvent

Ah, interesting! That does indeed look a lot better...
