coroutine

Callable

• coroutine(thisArg: any, engine: Engine<any>, coroutineGenerator: CoroutineGenerator, options?: CoroutineOptions): Promise<void>
• coroutine(engine: Engine<any>, coroutineGenerator: CoroutineGenerator, options?: CoroutineOptions): Promise<void>
• coroutine(coroutineGenerator: CoroutineGenerator, options?: CoroutineOptions): Promise<void>
• coroutine(thisArg: any, coroutineGenerator: CoroutineGenerator, options?: CoroutineOptions): Promise<void>

• Excalibur coroutine helper, returns a promise when complete. Coroutines run before frame update.

  Each coroutine yield is 1 excalibur frame. Coroutines get passed the elapsed time our of yield. Coroutines run internally on the excalibur clock.

  If you yield a promise it will be awaited before resumed If you yield a number it will wait that many ms before resumed
