Unify `FixedTime` and `Time` while fixing several problems (#8964) # Objective Current `FixedTime` and `Time` have several problems. This pull aims to fix many of them at once. - If there is a longer pause between app updates, time will jump forward a lot at once and fixed time will iterate on `FixedUpdate` for a large number of steps. If the pause is merely seconds, then this will just mean jerkiness and possible unexpected behaviour in gameplay. If the pause is hours/days as with OS suspend, the game will appear to freeze until it has caught up with real time. - If calculating a fixed step takes longer than specified fixed step period, the game will enter a death spiral where rendering each frame takes longer and longer due to more and more fixed step updates being run per frame and the game appears to freeze. - There is no way to see current fixed step elapsed time inside fixed steps. In order to track this, the game designer needs to add a custom system inside `FixedUpdate` that calculates elapsed or step count in a resource. - Access to delta time inside fixed step is `FixedStep::period` rather than `Time::delta`. This, coupled with the issue that `Time::elapsed` isn't available at all for fixed steps, makes it that time requiring systems are either implemented to be run in `FixedUpdate` or `Update`, but rarely work in both. - Fixes #8800 - Fixes #8543 - Fixes #7439 - Fixes #5692 ## Solution - Create a generic `Time<T>` clock that has no processing logic but which can be instantiated for multiple usages. This is also exposed for users to add custom clocks. - Create three standard clocks, `Time<Real>`, `Time<Virtual>` and `Time<Fixed>`, all of which contain their individual logic. - Create one "default" clock, which is just `Time` (or `Time<()>`), which will be overwritten from `Time<Virtual>` on each update, and `Time<Fixed>` inside `FixedUpdate` schedule. This way systems that do not care specifically which time they track can work both in `Update` and `FixedUpdate` without changes and the behaviour is intuitive. - Add `max_delta` to virtual time update, which limits how much can be added to virtual time by a single update. This fixes both the behaviour after a long freeze, and also the death spiral by limiting how many fixed timestep iterations there can be per update. Possible future work could be adding `max_accumulator` to add a sort of "leaky bucket" time processing to possibly smooth out jumps in time while keeping frame rate stable. - Many minor tweaks and clarifications to the time functions and their documentation. ## Changelog - `Time::raw_delta()`, `Time::raw_elapsed()` and related methods are moved to `Time<Real>::delta()` and `Time<Real>::elapsed()` and now match `Time` API - `FixedTime` is now `Time<Fixed>` and matches `Time` API. - `Time<Fixed>` default timestep is now 64 Hz, or 15625 microseconds. - `Time` inside `FixedUpdate` now reflects fixed timestep time, making systems portable between `Update ` and `FixedUpdate`. - `Time::pause()`, `Time::set_relative_speed()` and related methods must now be called as `Time<Virtual>::pause()` etc. - There is a new `max_delta` setting in `Time<Virtual>` that limits how much the clock can jump by a single update. The default value is 0.25 seconds. - Removed `on_fixed_timer()` condition as `on_timer()` does the right thing inside `FixedUpdate` now. ## Migration Guide - Change all `Res<Time>` instances that access `raw_delta()`, `raw_elapsed()` and related methods to `Res<Time<Real>>` and `delta()`, `elapsed()`, etc. - Change access to `period` from `Res<FixedTime>` to `Res<Time<Fixed>>` and use `delta()`. - The default timestep has been changed from 60 Hz to 64 Hz. If you wish to restore the old behaviour, use `app.insert_resource(Time::<Fixed>::from_hz(60.0))`. - Change `app.insert_resource(FixedTime::new(duration))` to `app.insert_resource(Time::<Fixed>::from_duration(duration))` - Change `app.insert_resource(FixedTime::new_from_secs(secs))` to `app.insert_resource(Time::<Fixed>::from_seconds(secs))` - Change `system.on_fixed_timer(duration)` to `system.on_timer(duration)`. Timers in systems placed in `FixedUpdate` schedule automatically use the fixed time clock. - Change `ResMut<Time>` calls to `pause()`, `is_paused()`, `set_relative_speed()` and related methods to `ResMut<Time<Virtual>>` calls. The API is the same, with the exception that `relative_speed()` will return the actual last ste relative speed, while `effective_relative_speed()` returns 0.0 if the time is paused and corresponds to the speed that was set when the update for the current frame started. ## Todo - [x] Update pull name and description - [x] Top level documentation on usage - [x] Fix examples - [x] Decide on default `max_delta` value - [x] Decide naming of the three clocks: is `Real`, `Virtual`, `Fixed` good? - [x] Decide if the three clock inner structures should be in prelude - [x] Decide on best way to configure values at startup: is manually inserting a new clock instance okay, or should there be config struct separately? - [x] Fix links in docs - [x] Decide what should be public and what not - [x] Decide how `wrap_period` should be handled when it is changed - [x] ~~Add toggles to disable setting the clock as default?~~ No, separate pull if needed. - [x] Add tests - [x] Reformat, ensure adheres to conventions etc. - [x] Build documentation and see that it looks correct ## Contributors Huge thanks to @alice-i-cecile and @maniwani while building this pull.

Make `AppExit` more specific about exit reason. (#13022) # Objective Closes #13017. ## Solution - Make `AppExit` a enum with a `Success` and `Error` variant. - Make `App::run()` return a `AppExit` if it ever returns. - Make app runners return a `AppExit` to signal if they encountered a error. --- ## Changelog ### Added - [`App::should_exit`](https://example.org/) - [`AppExit`](https://docs.rs/bevy/latest/bevy/app/struct.AppExit.html) to the `bevy` and `bevy_app` preludes, ### Changed - [`AppExit`](https://docs.rs/bevy/latest/bevy/app/struct.AppExit.html) is now a enum with 2 variants (`Success` and `Error`). - The app's [runner function](https://docs.rs/bevy/latest/bevy/app/struct.App.html#method.set_runner) now has to return a `AppExit`. - [`App::run()`](https://docs.rs/bevy/latest/bevy/app/struct.App.html#method.run) now also returns the `AppExit` produced by the runner function. ## Migration Guide - Replace all usages of [`AppExit`](https://docs.rs/bevy/latest/bevy/app/struct.AppExit.html) with `AppExit::Success` or `AppExit::Failure`. - Any custom app runners now need to return a `AppExit`. We suggest you return a `AppExit::Error` if any `AppExit` raised was a Error. You can use the new [`App::should_exit`](https://example.org/) method. - If not exiting from `main` any other way. You should return the `AppExit` from `App::run()` so the app correctly returns a error code if anything fails e.g. ```rust fn main() -> AppExit { App::new() //Your setup here... .run() } ``` --------- Co-authored-by: Alice Cecile <alice.i.cecile@gmail.com>

Unify `FixedTime` and `Time` while fixing several problems (#8964) # Objective Current `FixedTime` and `Time` have several problems. This pull aims to fix many of them at once. - If there is a longer pause between app updates, time will jump forward a lot at once and fixed time will iterate on `FixedUpdate` for a large number of steps. If the pause is merely seconds, then this will just mean jerkiness and possible unexpected behaviour in gameplay. If the pause is hours/days as with OS suspend, the game will appear to freeze until it has caught up with real time. - If calculating a fixed step takes longer than specified fixed step period, the game will enter a death spiral where rendering each frame takes longer and longer due to more and more fixed step updates being run per frame and the game appears to freeze. - There is no way to see current fixed step elapsed time inside fixed steps. In order to track this, the game designer needs to add a custom system inside `FixedUpdate` that calculates elapsed or step count in a resource. - Access to delta time inside fixed step is `FixedStep::period` rather than `Time::delta`. This, coupled with the issue that `Time::elapsed` isn't available at all for fixed steps, makes it that time requiring systems are either implemented to be run in `FixedUpdate` or `Update`, but rarely work in both. - Fixes #8800 - Fixes #8543 - Fixes #7439 - Fixes #5692 ## Solution - Create a generic `Time<T>` clock that has no processing logic but which can be instantiated for multiple usages. This is also exposed for users to add custom clocks. - Create three standard clocks, `Time<Real>`, `Time<Virtual>` and `Time<Fixed>`, all of which contain their individual logic. - Create one "default" clock, which is just `Time` (or `Time<()>`), which will be overwritten from `Time<Virtual>` on each update, and `Time<Fixed>` inside `FixedUpdate` schedule. This way systems that do not care specifically which time they track can work both in `Update` and `FixedUpdate` without changes and the behaviour is intuitive. - Add `max_delta` to virtual time update, which limits how much can be added to virtual time by a single update. This fixes both the behaviour after a long freeze, and also the death spiral by limiting how many fixed timestep iterations there can be per update. Possible future work could be adding `max_accumulator` to add a sort of "leaky bucket" time processing to possibly smooth out jumps in time while keeping frame rate stable. - Many minor tweaks and clarifications to the time functions and their documentation. ## Changelog - `Time::raw_delta()`, `Time::raw_elapsed()` and related methods are moved to `Time<Real>::delta()` and `Time<Real>::elapsed()` and now match `Time` API - `FixedTime` is now `Time<Fixed>` and matches `Time` API. - `Time<Fixed>` default timestep is now 64 Hz, or 15625 microseconds. - `Time` inside `FixedUpdate` now reflects fixed timestep time, making systems portable between `Update ` and `FixedUpdate`. - `Time::pause()`, `Time::set_relative_speed()` and related methods must now be called as `Time<Virtual>::pause()` etc. - There is a new `max_delta` setting in `Time<Virtual>` that limits how much the clock can jump by a single update. The default value is 0.25 seconds. - Removed `on_fixed_timer()` condition as `on_timer()` does the right thing inside `FixedUpdate` now. ## Migration Guide - Change all `Res<Time>` instances that access `raw_delta()`, `raw_elapsed()` and related methods to `Res<Time<Real>>` and `delta()`, `elapsed()`, etc. - Change access to `period` from `Res<FixedTime>` to `Res<Time<Fixed>>` and use `delta()`. - The default timestep has been changed from 60 Hz to 64 Hz. If you wish to restore the old behaviour, use `app.insert_resource(Time::<Fixed>::from_hz(60.0))`. - Change `app.insert_resource(FixedTime::new(duration))` to `app.insert_resource(Time::<Fixed>::from_duration(duration))` - Change `app.insert_resource(FixedTime::new_from_secs(secs))` to `app.insert_resource(Time::<Fixed>::from_seconds(secs))` - Change `system.on_fixed_timer(duration)` to `system.on_timer(duration)`. Timers in systems placed in `FixedUpdate` schedule automatically use the fixed time clock. - Change `ResMut<Time>` calls to `pause()`, `is_paused()`, `set_relative_speed()` and related methods to `ResMut<Time<Virtual>>` calls.

Make `AppExit` more specific about exit reason. (#13022) # Objective Closes #13017. ## Solution - Make `AppExit` a enum with a `Success` and `Error` variant. - Make `App::run()` return a `AppExit` if it ever returns. - Make app runners return a `AppExit` to signal if they encountered a error. --- ## Changelog ### Added - [`App::should_exit`](https://example.org/) - [`AppExit`](https://docs.rs/bevy/latest/bevy/app/struct.AppExit.html) to the `bevy` and `bevy_app` preludes, ### Changed - [`AppExit`](https://docs.rs/bevy/latest/bevy/app/struct.AppExit.html) is now a enum with 2 variants (`Success` and `Error`). - The app's [runner function](https://docs.rs/bevy/latest/bevy/app/struct.App.html#method.set_runner) now has to return a `AppExit`. - [`App::run()`](https://docs.rs/bevy/latest/bevy/app/struct.App.html#method.run) now also returns the `AppExit` produced by the runner function. ## Migration Guide - Replace all usages of [`AppExit`](https://docs.rs/bevy/latest/bevy/app/struct.AppExit.html) with `AppExit::Success` or `AppExit::Failure`. - Any custom app runners now need to return a `AppExit`. We suggest you return a `AppExit::Error` if any `AppExit` raised was a Error. You can use the new [`App::should_exit`](https://example.org/) method. - If not exiting from `main` any other way. You should return the `AppExit` from `App::run()` so the app correctly returns a error code if anything fails e.g. ```rust fn main() -> AppExit { App::new() //Your setup here... .run() } ``` --------- Co-authored-by: Alice Cecile <alice.i.cecile@gmail.com>

AppExit::Success
Unify `FixedTime` and `Time` while fixing several problems (#8964) # Objective Current `FixedTime` and `Time` have several problems. This pull aims to fix many of them at once. - If there is a longer pause between app updates, time will jump forward a lot at once and fixed time will iterate on `FixedUpdate` for a large number of steps. If the pause is merely seconds, then this will just mean jerkiness and possible unexpected behaviour in gameplay. If the pause is hours/days as with OS suspend, the game will appear to freeze until it has caught up with real time. - If calculating a fixed step takes longer than specified fixed step period, the game will enter a death spiral where rendering each frame takes longer and longer due to more and more fixed step updates being run per frame and the game appears to freeze. - There is no way to see current fixed step elapsed time inside fixed steps. In order to track this, the game designer needs to add a custom system inside `FixedUpdate` that calculates elapsed or step count in a resource. - Access to delta time inside fixed step is `FixedStep::period` rather than `Time::delta`. This, coupled with the issue that `Time::elapsed` isn't available at all for fixed steps, makes it that time requiring systems are either implemented to be run in `FixedUpdate` or `Update`, but rarely work in both. - Fixes #8800 - Fixes #8543 - Fixes #7439 - Fixes #5692 ## Solution - Create a generic `Time<T>` clock that has no processing logic but which can be instantiated for multiple usages. This is also exposed for users to add custom clocks. - Create three standard clocks, `Time<Real>`, `Time<Virtual>` and `Time<Fixed>`, all of which contain their individual logic. - Create one "default" clock, which is just `Time` (or `Time<()>`), which will be overwritten from `Time<Virtual>` on each update, and `Time<Fixed>` inside `FixedUpdate` schedule. This way systems that do not care specifically which time they track can work both in `Update` and `FixedUpdate` without changes and the behaviour is intuitive. - Add `max_delta` to virtual time update, which limits how much can be added to virtual time by a single update. This fixes both the behaviour after a long freeze, and also the death spiral by limiting how many fixed timestep iterations there can be per update. Possible future work could be adding `max_accumulator` to add a sort of "leaky bucket" time processing to possibly smooth out jumps in time while keeping frame rate stable. - Many minor tweaks and clarifications to the time functions and their documentation. ## Changelog - `Time::raw_delta()`, `Time::raw_elapsed()` and related methods are moved to `Time<Real>::delta()` and `Time<Real>::elapsed()` and now match `Time` API - `FixedTime` is now `Time<Fixed>` and matches `Time` API. - `Time<Fixed>` default timestep is now 64 Hz, or 15625 microseconds. - `Time` inside `FixedUpdate` now reflects fixed timestep time, making systems portable between `Update ` and `FixedUpdate`. - `Time::pause()`, `Time::set_relative_speed()` and related methods must now be called as `Time<Virtual>::pause()` etc. - There is a new `max_delta` setting in `Time<Virtual>` that limits how much the clock can jump by a single update. The default value is 0.25 seconds. - Removed `on_fixed_timer()` condition as `on_timer()` does the right thing inside `FixedUpdate` now. ## Migration Guide - Change all `Res<Time>` instances that access `raw_delta()`, `raw_elapsed()` and related methods to `Res<Time<Real>>` and `delta()`, `elapsed()`, etc. - Change access to `period` from `Res<FixedTime>` to `Res<Time<Fixed>>` and use `delta()`. - The default timestep has been changed from 60 Hz to 64 Hz. If you wish to restore the old behaviour, use `app.insert_resource(Time::<Fixed>::from_hz(60.0))`. - Change `app.insert_resource(FixedTime::new(duration))` to `app.insert_resource(Time::<Fixed>::from_duration(duration))` - Change `app.insert_resource(FixedTime::new_from_secs(secs))` to `app.insert_resource(Time::<Fixed>::from_seconds(secs))` - Change `system.on_fixed_timer(duration)` to `system.on_timer(duration)`. Timers in systems placed in `FixedUpdate` schedule automatically use the fixed time clock. - Change `ResMut<Time>` calls to `pause()`, `is_paused()`, `set_relative_speed()` and related methods to `ResMut<Time<Virtual>>` calls. The API is the same, with the exception that `relative_speed()` will return the actual last ste relative speed, while `effective_relative_speed()` returns 0.0 if the time is paused and corresponds to the speed that was set when the update for the current frame started. ## Todo - [x] Update pull name and description - [x] Top level documentation on usage - [x] Fix examples - [x] Decide on default `max_delta` value - [x] Decide naming of the three clocks: is `Real`, `Virtual`, `Fixed` good? - [x] Decide if the three clock inner structures should be in prelude - [x] Decide on best way to configure values at startup: is manually inserting a new clock instance okay, or should there be config struct separately? - [x] Fix links in docs - [x] Decide what should be public and what not - [x] Decide how `wrap_period` should be handled when it is changed - [x] ~~Add toggles to disable setting the clock as default?~~ No, separate pull if needed. - [x] Add tests - [x] Reformat, ensure adheres to conventions etc. - [x] Build documentation and see that it looks correct ## Contributors Huge thanks to @alice-i-cecile and @maniwani while building this pull.
