Hello, I’m new to Phaser, and I’m trying to follow a tutorial to wrap the sprite around after it exits the screen (something like asteroids). I believe i’ve checked the [Phaser physics arcade example on wrapping](https://io/examples/v3/view/physics/arcade/wrap-sprite), but the following line gives me the following typescript error.

```javascript
function update() {
    if (this.ship) {
        if (this.cursors.left.isDown) {
          this.ship.setAngularVelocity(-150);
        } else if (this.cursors.right.isDown) {
          this.ship.setAngularVelocity(150);
        } else {
          this.ship.setAngularVelocity(0);
        }

        if (this.cursors.up.isDown) {
          this.physics.velocityFromRotation(this.ship.rotation + 1.5, 100, this.ship.body.acceleration);
        } else {
          this.ship.setAcceleration(0);
        }

     this.physics.world.wrap(this.ship, 5); // <-- This line causes the error
    }
}

```

I would greatly appreciate any advice!
