Description

helios::engine::mechanics::spawn::systems

Systems for spawn lifecycle management within the game loop.

Overview

This module contains the GameObjectSpawnSystem which integrates spawning into the game loop. The system evaluates spawn conditions via a SpawnScheduler and enqueues spawn commands for deferred execution.

Key Classes

System	Purpose
GameObjectSpawnSystem	Evaluates SpawnScheduler rules and enqueues ScheduledSpawnPlanCommands

System Flow

The GameObjectSpawnSystem performs the following each frame:

1. Read Frame Events: Consumes SpawnPlanCommandExecutedEvent from the previous frame 2. Commit Completed Spawns: Updates the scheduler with successful spawn counts 3. Evaluate Conditions: Checks all spawn rules against current conditions 4. Drain Scheduled Plans: Enqueues ready plans as ScheduledSpawnPlanCommand

Usage

 // Create scheduler with spawn rules

 auto scheduler = std::make_unique<SpawnScheduler>();

 scheduler->addRule(enemyRuleId, std::make_unique<TimerSpawnCondition>(2.0f), enemyProfileId);

 

 // Create system with scheduler

 auto system = std::make_unique<GameObjectSpawnSystem>(std::move(scheduler));

 

 // Register with game loop

 gameLoop.phase(PhaseType::Main)

  .addPass()

  .addSystem(std::move(system));
