# Objective
As discovered in
https://github.com/Leafwing-Studios/leafwing-input-manager/issues/538,
there appears to be some real weirdness going on in how event updates
are processed between Bevy 0.13 and Bevy 0.14.
To identify the cause and prevent regression, I've added tests to
validate the intended behavior.
My initial suspicion was that this would be fixed by
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/13762, but that doesn't seem to
be the case.
Instead, events appear to never be updated at all when using `bevy_app`
by itself. This is part of the problem resolved by
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/11528, and introduced by
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/10077.
After some investigation, it appears that `signal_event_update_system`
is never added using a bare-bones `App`, and so event updates are always
skipped.
This can be worked around by adding your own copy to a
later-in-the-frame schedule, but that's not a very good fix.
## Solution
Ensure that if we're not using a `FixedUpdate` schedule, events are
always updated every frame.
To do this, I've modified the logic of `event_update_condition` and
`event_update_system` to clearly and correctly differentiate between the
two cases: where we're waiting for a "you should update now" signal and
where we simply don't care.
To encode this, I've added the `ShouldUpdateEvents` enum, replacing a
simple `bool` in `EventRegistry`'s `needs_update` field.
Now, both tests pass as expected, without having to manually add a
system!
## Testing
I've written two parallel unit tests to cover the intended behavior:
1. Test that `iter_current_update_events` works as expected in
`bevy_ecs`.
2. Test that `iter_current_update_events` works as expected in
`bevy_app`
I've also added a test to verify that event updating works correctly in
the presence of a fixed main schedule, and a second test to verify that
fixed updating works at all to help future authors narrow down failures.
## Outstanding
- [x] figure out why the `bevy_app` version of this test fails but the
`bevy_ecs` version does not
- [x] figure out why `EventRegistry::run_updates` isn't working properly
- [x] figure out why `EventRegistry::run_updates` is never getting
called
- [x] figure out why `event_update_condition` is always returning false
- [x] figure out why `EventRegistry::needs_update` is always false
- [x] verify that the problem is a missing `signal_events_update_system`

# Objective
- `README.md` is a common file that usually gives an overview of the
folder it is in.
- When on <https://crates.io>, `README.md` is rendered as the main
description.
- Many crates in this repository are lacking `README.md` files, which
makes it more difficult to understand their purpose.
<img width="1552" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/59022059/78ebf91d-b0c4-4b18-9874-365d6310640f">
- There are also a few inconsistencies with `README.md` files that this
PR and its follow-ups intend to fix.
## Solution
- Create a `README.md` file for all crates that do not have one.
- This file only contains the title of the crate (underscores removed,
proper capitalization, acronyms expanded) and the <https://shields.io>
badges.
- Remove the `readme` field in `Cargo.toml` for `bevy` and
`bevy_reflect`.
- This field is redundant because [Cargo automatically detects
`README.md`
files](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/manifest.html#the-readme-field).
The field is only there if you name it something else, like `INFO.md`.
- Fix capitalization of `bevy_utils`'s `README.md`.
- It was originally `Readme.md`, which is inconsistent with the rest of
the project.
- I created two commits renaming it to `README.md`, because Git appears
to be case-insensitive.
- Expand acronyms in title of `bevy_ptr` and `bevy_utils`.
- In the commit where I created all the new `README.md` files, I
preferred using expanded acronyms in the titles. (E.g. "Bevy Developer
Tools" instead of "Bevy Dev Tools".)
- This commit changes the title of existing `README.md` files to follow
the same scheme.
- I do not feel strongly about this change, please comment if you
disagree and I can revert it.
- Add <https://shields.io> badges to `bevy_time` and `bevy_transform`,
which are the only crates currently lacking them.
---
## Changelog
- Added `README.md` files to all crates missing it.
# Objective
Improve performance scalability when adding new event types to a Bevy
app. Currently, just using Bevy in the default configuration, all apps
spend upwards of 100+us in the `First` schedule, every app tick,
evaluating if it should update events or not, even if events are not
being used for that particular frame, and this scales with the number of
Events registered in the app.
## Solution
As `Events::update` is guaranteed `O(1)` by just checking if a
resource's value, swapping two Vecs, and then clearing one of them, the
actual cost of running `event_update_system` is *very* cheap. The
overhead of doing system dependency injection, task scheduling ,and the
multithreaded executor outweighs the cost of running the system by a
large margin.
Create an `EventRegistry` resource that keeps a number of function
pointers that update each event. Replace the per-event type
`event_update_system` with a singular exclusive system uses the
`EventRegistry` to update all events instead. Update `SubApp::add_event`
to use `EventRegistry` instead.
## Performance
This speeds reduces the cost of the `First` schedule in both many_foxes
and many_cubes by over 80%. Note this is with system spans on. The
majority of this is now context-switching costs from launching
`time_system`, which should be mostly eliminated with #12869.
The actual `event_update_system` is usually *very* short, using only a
few microseconds on average.

# Objective
- There are several redundant imports in the tests and examples that are
not caught by CI because additional flags need to be passed.
## Solution
- Run `cargo check --workspace --tests` and `cargo check --workspace
--examples`, then fix all warnings.
- Add `test-check` to CI, which will be run in the check-compiles job.
This should catch future warnings for tests. Examples are already
checked, but I'm not yet sure why they weren't caught.
## Discussion
- Should the `--tests` and `--examples` flags be added to CI, so this is
caught in the future?
- If so, #12818 will need to be merged first. It was also a warning
raised by checking the examples, but I chose to split off into a
separate PR.

# Objective
Resolves#3824. `unsafe` code should be the exception, not the norm in
Rust. It's obviously needed for various use cases as it's interfacing
with platforms and essentially running the borrow checker at runtime in
the ECS, but the touted benefits of Bevy is that we are able to heavily
leverage Rust's safety, and we should be holding ourselves accountable
to that by minimizing our unsafe footprint.
## Solution
Deny `unsafe_code` workspace wide. Add explicit exceptions for the
following crates, and forbid it in almost all of the others.
* bevy_ecs - Obvious given how much unsafe is needed to achieve
performant results
* bevy_ptr - Works with raw pointers, even more low level than bevy_ecs.
* bevy_render - due to needing to integrate with wgpu
* bevy_window - due to needing to integrate with raw_window_handle
* bevy_utils - Several unsafe utilities used by bevy_ecs. Ideally moved
into bevy_ecs instead of made publicly usable.
* bevy_reflect - Required for the unsafe type casting it's doing.
* bevy_transform - for the parallel transform propagation
* bevy_gizmos - For the SystemParam impls it has.
* bevy_assets - To support reflection. Might not be required, not 100%
sure yet.
* bevy_mikktspace - due to being a conversion from a C library. Pending
safe rewrite.
* bevy_dynamic_plugin - Inherently unsafe due to the dynamic loading
nature.
Several uses of unsafe were rewritten, as they did not need to be using
them:
* bevy_text - a case of `Option::unchecked` could be rewritten as a
normal for loop and match instead of an iterator.
* bevy_color - the Pod/Zeroable implementations were replaceable with
bytemuck's derive macros.
# Objective
I found that some .rs files are unnecessarily executable.
Rust source files may start with a shebang-like statement `#!`, so let's
make sure they are not executable just in case.
Here is the result of the `find` commend that lists executable .rs files
as of main branch `86bd648`.
```console
$ find -name \*.rs -type f -executable
./crates/bevy_gizmos/src/lib.rs
./crates/bevy_tasks/src/lib.rs
./crates/bevy_time/src/lib.rs
./crates/bevy_transform/src/lib.rs
./src/lib.rs
```
It appears that the permissions of those files were originally 644, but
were unexpectedly changed to 755 by commit
52e3f2007b.
## Solution
Make them not executable by using this command;
`find -name \*.rs -type f -executable -exec chmod --verbose a-x -- {}
\+`
# Objective
Currently the built docs only shows the logo and favicon for the top
level `bevy` crate. This makes views like
https://docs.rs/bevy_ecs/latest/bevy_ecs/ look potentially unrelated to
the project at first glance.
## Solution
Reproduce the docs attributes for every crate that Bevy publishes.
Ideally this would be done with some workspace level Cargo.toml control,
but AFAICT, such support does not exist.
# Objective
Fix missing `TextBundle` (and many others) which are present in the main
crate as default features but optional in the sub-crate. See:
- https://docs.rs/bevy/0.13.0/bevy/ui/node_bundles/index.html
- https://docs.rs/bevy_ui/0.13.0/bevy_ui/node_bundles/index.html
~~There are probably other instances in other crates that I could track
down, but maybe "all-features = true" should be used by default in all
sub-crates? Not sure.~~ (There were many.) I only noticed this because
rust-analyzer's "open docs" features takes me to the sub-crate, not the
main one.
## Solution
Add "all-features = true" to docs.rs metadata for crates that use
features.
## Changelog
### Changed
- Unified features documented on docs.rs between main crate and
sub-crates
# Objective
- Fix#12356
- better isolation of ci testing tools in dev tools instead of being in
various crates
## Solution
- Move the parts doing the work of ci testing to the dev tools
# Objective
- Resolves#11309
## Solution
- Add `bevy_dev_tools` crate as a default feature.
- Add `DevToolsPlugin` and add it to an app if the `bevy_dev_tools`
feature is enabled.
`bevy_dev_tools` is reserved by @alice-i-cecile, should we wait until it
gets transferred to cart before merging?

# Objective
Currently the `missing_docs` lint is allowed-by-default and enabled at
crate level when their documentations is complete (see #3492).
This PR proposes to inverse this logic by making `missing_docs`
warn-by-default and mark crates with imcomplete docs allowed.
## Solution
Makes `missing_docs` warn at workspace level and allowed at crate level
when the docs is imcomplete.
# Objective
Fix an issue where events are not being dropped after being read. I
believe #10077 introduced this issue. The code currently works as
follows:
1. `EventUpdateSignal` is **shared for all event types**
2. During the fixed update phase, `EventUpdateSignal` is set to true
3. `event_update_system`, **unique per event type**, runs to update
Events<T>
4. `event_update_system` reads value of `EventUpdateSignal` to check if
it should update, and then **resets** the value to false
If there are multiple event types, the first `event_update_system` run
will reset the shared `EventUpdateSignal` signal, preventing other
events from being cleared.
## Solution
I've updated the code to have separate signals per event type and added
a shared signal to notify all systems that the time plugin is installed.
## Changelog
- Fixed bug where events were not being dropped
# Objective
- It is common to run a system only when the clock is paused or not
paused, but this run condition doesn't exist.
## Solution
- Add the "paused" run condition.
---
## Changelog
- Systems can now be scheduled to run only if the clock is paused or not
using `.run_if(paused())` or `.run_if(not(paused()))`.

# Objective
I want to run a system once after a given delay.
- First, I tried using the `on_timer` run condition, but it uses a
repeating timer, causing the system to run multiple times.
- Next, I tried combining the `on_timer` with the `run_once` run
condition. However, this causes the timer to *tick* only once, so the
system is never executed.
## Solution
- ~~Replace `on_timer` by `on_time_interval` and `on_real_timer` by
`on_real_time_interval` to clarify the meaning (the old ones are
deprecated to avoid a breaking change).~~ (Reverted according to
feedback)
- Add `once_after_delay` and `once_after_real_delay` to run the system
exactly once after the delay, using `TimerMode::Once`.
- Add `repeating_after_delay` and `repeating_after_real_delay` to run
the system indefinitely after the delay, using `Timer::finished` instead
of `Timer::just_finished`.
---
## Changelog
### Added
- `once_after_delay` and `once_after_real_delay` run conditions to run
the system exactly once after the delay, using `TimerMode::Once`.
- `repeating_after_delay` and `repeating_after_real_delay` run
conditions to run the system indefinitely after the delay, using
`Timer::finished` instead of `Timer::just_finished`.
# Objective
There are a lot of doctests that are `ignore`d for no documented reason.
And that should be fixed.
## Solution
I searched the bevy repo with the regex ` ```[a-z,]*ignore ` in order to
find all `ignore`d doctests. For each one of the `ignore`d doctests, I
did the following steps:
1. Attempt to remove the `ignored` attribute while still passing the
test. I did this by adding hidden dummy structs and imports.
2. If step 1 doesn't work, attempt to replace the `ignored` attribute
with the `no_run` attribute while still passing the test.
3. If step 2 doesn't work, keep the `ignored` attribute but add
documentation for why the `ignored` attribute was added.

# Objective
- Update winit dependency to 0.29
## Changelog
### KeyCode changes
- Removed `ScanCode`, as it was [replaced by
KeyCode](https://github.com/rust-windowing/winit/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#0292).
- `ReceivedCharacter.char` is now a `SmolStr`, [relevant
doc](https://docs.rs/winit/latest/winit/event/struct.KeyEvent.html#structfield.text).
- Changed most `KeyCode` values, and added more.
KeyCode has changed meaning. With this PR, it refers to physical
position on keyboard rather than the printed letter on keyboard keys.
In practice this means:
- On QWERTY keyboard layouts, nothing changes
- On any other keyboard layout, `KeyCode` no longer reflects the label
on key.
- This is "good". In bevy 0.12, when you used WASD for movement, users
with non-QWERTY keyboards couldn't play your game! This was especially
bad for non-latin keyboards. Now, WASD represents the physical keys. A
French player will press the ZQSD keys, which are near each other,
Kyrgyz players will use "Цфыв".
- This is "bad" as well. You can't know in advance what the label of the
key for input is. Your UI says "press WASD to move", even if in reality,
they should be pressing "ZQSD" or "Цфыв". You also no longer can use
`KeyCode` for text inputs. In any case, it was a pretty bad API for text
input. You should use `ReceivedCharacter` now instead.
### Other changes
- Use `web-time` rather than `instant` crate.
(https://github.com/rust-windowing/winit/pull/2836)
- winit did split `run_return` in `run_onDemand` and `pump_events`, I
did the same change in bevy_winit and used `pump_events`.
- Removed `return_from_run` from `WinitSettings` as `winit::run` now
returns on supported platforms.
- I left the example "return_after_run" as I think it's still useful.
- This winit change is done partly to allow to create a new window after
quitting all windows: https://github.com/emilk/egui/issues/1918 ; this
PR doesn't address.
- added `width` and `height` properties in the `canvas` from wasm
example
(https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/10702#discussion_r1420567168)
## Known regressions (important follow ups?)
- Provide an API for reacting when a specific key from current layout
was released.
- possible solutions: use winit::Key from winit::KeyEvent ; mapping
between KeyCode and Key ; or .
- We don't receive characters through alt+numpad (e.g. alt + 151 = "ù")
anymore ; reproduced on winit example "ime". maybe related to
https://github.com/rust-windowing/winit/issues/2945
- (windows) Window content doesn't refresh at all when resizing. By
reading https://github.com/rust-windowing/winit/issues/2900 ; I suspect
we should just fire a `window.request_redraw();` from `AboutToWait`, and
handle actual redrawing within `RedrawRequested`. I'm not sure how to
move all that code so I'd appreciate it to be a follow up.
- (windows) unreleased winit fix for using set_control_flow in
AboutToWait https://github.com/rust-windowing/winit/issues/3215 ; ⚠️ I'm
not sure what the implications are, but that feels bad 🤔
## Follow up
I'd like to avoid bloating this PR, here are a few follow up tasks
worthy of a separate PR, or new issue to track them once this PR is
closed, as they would either complicate reviews, or at risk of being
controversial:
- remove CanvasParentResizePlugin
(https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/10702#discussion_r1417068856)
- avoid mentionning explicitly winit in docs from bevy_window ?
- NamedKey integration on bevy_input:
https://github.com/rust-windowing/winit/pull/3143 introduced a new
NamedKey variant. I implemented it only on the converters but we'd
benefit making the same changes to bevy_input.
- Add more info in KeyboardInput
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/10702#pullrequestreview-1748336313
- https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/9905 added a workaround on a
bug allegedly fixed by winit 0.29. We should check if it's still
necessary.
- update to raw_window_handle 0.6
- blocked by wgpu
- Rename `KeyCode` to `PhysicalKeyCode`
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/10702#discussion_r1404595015
- remove `instant` dependency, [replaced
by](https://github.com/rust-windowing/winit/pull/2836) `web_time`), we'd
need to update to :
- fastrand >= 2.0
- [`async-executor`](https://github.com/smol-rs/async-executor) >= 1.7
- [`futures-lite`](https://github.com/smol-rs/futures-lite) >= 2.0
- Verify license, see
[discussion](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8745#discussion_r1402439800)
- we might be missing a short notice or description of changes made
- Consider using https://github.com/rust-windowing/cursor-icon directly
rather than vendoring it in bevy.
- investigate [this
unwrap](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8745#discussion_r1387044986)
(`winit_window.canvas().unwrap();`)
- Use more good things about winit's update
- https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/10689#issuecomment-1823560428
## Migration Guide
This PR should have one.
Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/10974
# Objective
Duplicate the ordering logic of the `Main` schedule into the `FixedMain`
schedule.
---
## Changelog
- `FixedUpdate` is no longer the main schedule ran in
`RunFixedUpdateLoop`, `FixedMain` has replaced this and has a similar
structure to `Main`.
## Migration Guide
- Usage of `RunFixedUpdateLoop` should be renamed to `RunFixedMainLoop`.
## Objective
Currently, events are dropped after two frames. This cadence wasn't
*chosen* for a specific reason, double buffering just lets events
persist for at least two frames. Events only need to be dropped at a
predictable point so that the event queues don't grow forever (i.e.
events should never cause a memory leak).
Events (and especially input events) need to be observable by systems in
`FixedUpdate`, but as-is events are dropped before those systems even
get a chance to see them.
## Solution
Instead of unconditionally dropping events in `First`, require
`FixedUpdate` to first queue the buffer swap (if the `TimePlugin` has
been installed). This way, events are only dropped after a frame that
runs `FixedUpdate`.
## Future Work
In the same way we have independent copies of `Time` for tracking time
in `Main` and `FixedUpdate`, we will need independent copies of `Input`
for tracking press/release status correctly in `Main` and `FixedUpdate`.
--
Every run of `FixedUpdate` covers a specific timespan. For example, if
the fixed timestep `Δt` is 10ms, the first three `FixedUpdate` runs
cover `[0ms, 10ms)`, `[10ms, 20ms)`, and `[20ms, 30ms)`.
`FixedUpdate` can run many times in one frame. For truly
framerate-independent behavior, each `FixedUpdate` should only see the
events that occurred in its covered timespan, but what happens right now
is the first step in the frame reads all pending events.
Fixing that will require timestamped events.

# Objective
There is no easy way to discard some amount for `Time<Fixed>`'s
overstep. This can be useful for online games when the client receives
information about a tick (which happens when you get a FPS drop or the
ping changes for example) it has not yet processed, it can discard
overstep equal to the number of ticks it can jump ahead.
Currently the workaround would be to create a new `Time<Fixed>` copy the
old timestep, advance it by the overstep amount that would remain after
subtracting the discarded amount, and using `.context_mut()` to
overwrite the old context with the new one. If you overwrite the whole
`Time<Fixed>` or forget to copy over the timestep you can introduce
undesirable side effects.
## Solution
Introduce a `discard_overstep` method, which discards the provided
amount of overstep. It uses satuarting_sub to avoid errors (negative
`Duration`s do not exist).
---
## Changelog
- Added `discard_overstep` function to `Time<Fixed>`

# Objective
Fixes#10439
`Timer::percent()` and `Timer::percent_left()` return values in the
range of 0.0 to 1.0, even though their names contain "percent".
These functions should be renamed for clarity.
## Solution
- Rename `Timer::percent()` to `Timer::fraction()`
- Rename `Timer::percent_left()` to `Timer::fraction_remaining()`
---
## Changelog
### Changed
- Renamed `Timer::percent()` to `Timer::fraction()`
- Renamed `Timer::percent_left()` to `Timer::fraction_remaining()`
## Migration Guide
- `Timer::percent()` has been renamed to `Timer::fraction()`
- `Timer::percent_left()` has been renamed to
`Timer::fraction_remaining()`
# Objective
This is similar to #10439.
`Time::<Fixed>::overstep_percentage()` and
`Time::<Fixed>::overstep_percentage_f64()` returns values from 0.0 to
1.0, but their names use the word "percentage". These function names
make it easy to misunderstand that they return values from 0.0 to 100.0.
To avoid confusion, these functions should be renamed to
"`overstep_fraction(_f64)`".
## Solution
Rename them.
---
## Changelog
### Changed
- Renamed `Time::<Fixed>::overstep_percentage()` to
`Time::<Fixed>::overstep_fraction()`
- Renamed `Time::<Fixed>::overstep_percentage_f64()` to
`Time::<Fixed>::overstep_fraction_f64()`
## Migration Guide
- `Time::<Fixed>::overstep_percentage()` has been renamed to
`Time::<Fixed>::overstep_fraction()`
- `Time::<Fixed>::overstep_percentage_f64()` has been renamed to
`Time::<Fixed>::overstep_fraction_f64()`

Time clamping happens consistently for apps that load non-trivial

## Solution
Change `warn` to `debug` for this message
# 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

# Objective
- sometimes when bevy shuts down on certain machines the render thread
tries to send the time after the main world has been dropped.
- fixes an error mentioned in a reply in
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/9543
---
## Changelog
- ignore disconnected errors from the time channel.
# Objective
I was wondering whether to use `Timer::finished` or
`Timer::just_finished` for my repeating timer. This PR clarifies their
difference (or rather, lack thereof).
## Solution
More docs & examples.
# Objective
- Move schedule name into `Schedule` to allow the schedule name to be
used for errors and tracing in Schedule methods
- Fixes#9510
## Solution
- Move label onto `Schedule` and adjust api's on `World` and `Schedule`
to not pass explicit label where it makes sense to.
- add name to errors and tracing.
- `Schedule::new` now takes a label so either add the label or use
`Schedule::default` which uses a default label. `default` is mostly used
in doc examples and tests.
---
## Changelog
- move label onto `Schedule` to improve error message and logging for
schedules.
## Migration Guide
`Schedule::new` and `App::add_schedule`
```rust
// old
let schedule = Schedule::new();
app.add_schedule(MyLabel, schedule);
// new
let schedule = Schedule::new(MyLabel);
app.add_schedule(schedule);
```
if you aren't using a label and are using the schedule struct directly
you can use the default constructor.
```rust
// old
let schedule = Schedule::new();
schedule.run(world);
// new
let schedule = Schedule::default();
schedule.run(world);
```
`Schedules:insert`
```rust
// old
let schedule = Schedule::new();
schedules.insert(MyLabel, schedule);
// new
let schedule = Schedule::new(MyLabel);
schedules.insert(schedule);
```
`World::add_schedule`
```rust
// old
let schedule = Schedule::new();
world.add_schedule(MyLabel, schedule);
// new
let schedule = Schedule::new(MyLabel);
world.add_schedule(schedule);
```

I created this manually as Github didn't want to run CI for the
workflow-generated PR. I'm guessing we didn't hit this in previous
releases because we used bors.

# Objective
**This implementation is based on
https://github.com/bevyengine/rfcs/pull/59.**
---
Resolves#4597
Full details and motivation can be found in the RFC, but here's a brief
summary.
`FromReflect` is a very powerful and important trait within the
reflection API. It allows Dynamic types (e.g., `DynamicList`, etc.) to
be formed into Real ones (e.g., `Vec<i32>`, etc.).
This mainly comes into play concerning deserialization, where the
reflection deserializers both return a `Box<dyn Reflect>` that almost
always contain one of these Dynamic representations of a Real type. To
convert this to our Real type, we need to use `FromReflect`.
It also sneaks up in other ways. For example, it's a required bound for
`T` in `Vec<T>` so that `Vec<T>` as a whole can be made `FromReflect`.
It's also required by all fields of an enum as it's used as part of the
`Reflect::apply` implementation.
So in other words, much like `GetTypeRegistration` and `Typed`, it is
very much a core reflection trait.
The problem is that it is not currently treated like a core trait and is
not automatically derived alongside `Reflect`. This makes using it a bit
cumbersome and easy to forget.
## Solution
Automatically derive `FromReflect` when deriving `Reflect`.
Users can then choose to opt-out if needed using the
`#[reflect(from_reflect = false)]` attribute.
```rust
#[derive(Reflect)]
struct Foo;
#[derive(Reflect)]
#[reflect(from_reflect = false)]
struct Bar;
fn test<T: FromReflect>(value: T) {}
test(Foo); // <-- OK
test(Bar); // <-- Panic! Bar does not implement trait `FromReflect`
```
#### `ReflectFromReflect`
This PR also automatically adds the `ReflectFromReflect` (introduced in
#6245) registration to the derived `GetTypeRegistration` impl— if the
type hasn't opted out of `FromReflect` of course.
<details>
<summary><h4>Improved Deserialization</h4></summary>
> **Warning**
> This section includes changes that have since been descoped from this
PR. They will likely be implemented again in a followup PR. I am mainly
leaving these details in for archival purposes, as well as for reference
when implementing this logic again.
And since we can do all the above, we might as well improve
deserialization. We can now choose to deserialize into a Dynamic type or
automatically convert it using `FromReflect` under the hood.
`[Un]TypedReflectDeserializer::new` will now perform the conversion and
return the `Box`'d Real type.
`[Un]TypedReflectDeserializer::new_dynamic` will work like what we have
now and simply return the `Box`'d Dynamic type.
```rust
// Returns the Real type
let reflect_deserializer = UntypedReflectDeserializer::new(®istry);
let mut deserializer = ron:🇩🇪:Deserializer::from_str(input)?;
let output: SomeStruct = reflect_deserializer.deserialize(&mut deserializer)?.take()?;
// Returns the Dynamic type
let reflect_deserializer = UntypedReflectDeserializer::new_dynamic(®istry);
let mut deserializer = ron:🇩🇪:Deserializer::from_str(input)?;
let output: DynamicStruct = reflect_deserializer.deserialize(&mut deserializer)?.take()?;
```
</details>
---
## Changelog
* `FromReflect` is now automatically derived within the `Reflect` derive
macro
* This includes auto-registering `ReflectFromReflect` in the derived
`GetTypeRegistration` impl
* ~~Renamed `TypedReflectDeserializer::new` and
`UntypedReflectDeserializer::new` to
`TypedReflectDeserializer::new_dynamic` and
`UntypedReflectDeserializer::new_dynamic`, respectively~~ **Descoped**
* ~~Changed `TypedReflectDeserializer::new` and
`UntypedReflectDeserializer::new` to automatically convert the
deserialized output using `FromReflect`~~ **Descoped**
## Migration Guide
* `FromReflect` is now automatically derived within the `Reflect` derive
macro. Items with both derives will need to remove the `FromReflect`
one.
```rust
// OLD
#[derive(Reflect, FromReflect)]
struct Foo;
// NEW
#[derive(Reflect)]
struct Foo;
```
If using a manual implementation of `FromReflect` and the `Reflect`
derive, users will need to opt-out of the automatic implementation.
```rust
// OLD
#[derive(Reflect)]
struct Foo;
impl FromReflect for Foo {/* ... */}
// NEW
#[derive(Reflect)]
#[reflect(from_reflect = false)]
struct Foo;
impl FromReflect for Foo {/* ... */}
```
<details>
<summary><h4>Removed Migrations</h4></summary>
> **Warning**
> This section includes changes that have since been descoped from this
PR. They will likely be implemented again in a followup PR. I am mainly
leaving these details in for archival purposes, as well as for reference
when implementing this logic again.
* The reflect deserializers now perform a `FromReflect` conversion
internally. The expected output of `TypedReflectDeserializer::new` and
`UntypedReflectDeserializer::new` is no longer a Dynamic (e.g.,
`DynamicList`), but its Real counterpart (e.g., `Vec<i32>`).
```rust
let reflect_deserializer =
UntypedReflectDeserializer::new_dynamic(®istry);
let mut deserializer = ron:🇩🇪:Deserializer::from_str(input)?;
// OLD
let output: DynamicStruct = reflect_deserializer.deserialize(&mut
deserializer)?.take()?;
// NEW
let output: SomeStruct = reflect_deserializer.deserialize(&mut
deserializer)?.take()?;
```
Alternatively, if this behavior isn't desired, use the
`TypedReflectDeserializer::new_dynamic` and
`UntypedReflectDeserializer::new_dynamic` methods instead:
```rust
// OLD
let reflect_deserializer = UntypedReflectDeserializer::new(®istry);
// NEW
let reflect_deserializer =
UntypedReflectDeserializer::new_dynamic(®istry);
```

# Objective
- I want to take screenshots of examples in CI to help with validation
of changes
## Solution
- Can override how much time is updated per frame
- Can specify on which frame to take a screenshots
- Save screenshots in CI
I reused the `TimeUpdateStrategy::ManualDuration` to be able to set the
time update strategy to a fixed duration every frame. Its previous
meaning didn't make much sense to me. This change makes it possible to
have screenshots that are exactly the same across runs.
If this gets merged, I'll add visual comparison of screenshots between
runs to ensure nothing gets broken
## Migration Guide
* `TimeUpdateStrategy::ManualDuration` meaning has changed. Instead of
setting time to `Instant::now()` plus the given duration, it sets time
to last update plus the given duration.
# Objective
Timer with zero `Duration` panics at `tick()` because of division by
zero. This PR Fixes#8463 .
## Solution
- Handle division by zero separately with `checked_div` and
`checked_rem`.
---
## Changelog
- Replace division with `checked_div`. Set `times_finished_this_tick` to
u32::MAX when duration is zero.
- Set `elapsed` to `Duration::ZERO` when timer duration is zero.
- Set `percent` to `1.0` when duration is zero.
- `times_finished_this_tick` is [not used
anywhere](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/search?q=times_finished_this_tick),
that's why this change will not affect other parts of the project.
- `times_finished_this_tick` is set to `0` after `reset()` and before
first `tick()` call.
# Objective
If you want to execute a schedule on the world using arbitrarily complex
behavior, you currently need to use "hokey-pokey strats": remove the
schedule from the world, do your thing, and add it back to the world.
Not only is this cumbersome, it's potentially error-prone as one might
forget to re-insert the schedule.
## Solution
Add the `World::{try}schedule_scope{ref}` family of functions, which is
a convenient abstraction over hokey pokey strats. This method
essentially works the same way as `World::resource_scope`.
### Example
```rust
// Run the schedule five times.
world.schedule_scope(MySchedule, |world, schedule| {
for _ in 0..5 {
schedule.run(world);
}
});
```
---
## Changelog
Added the `World::schedule_scope` family of methods, which provide a way
to get mutable access to a world and one of its schedules at the same
time.
