# Objective
- `bevy_state_macros` is a new crate added in the 0.14
- it already exists outside of the bevy org:
https://crates.io/crates/bevy_state_macros
## Solution
- Rename the crate
# Objective
Move `StateScoped` and `log_transitions` to `bevy_state`, since they're
useful for end users.
Addresses #12852, although not in the way the issue had in mind.
## Solution
- Added `bevy_hierarchy` to default features of `bevy_state`.
- Move `log_transitions` to `transitions` module.
- Move `StateScoped` to `state_scoped` module, gated behind
`bevy_hierarchy` feature.
- Refreshed implementation.
- Added `enable_state_coped_entities<S: States>()` to add required
machinery to `App` for clearing state-scoped entities.
## Changelog
- Added `log_transitions` for displaying state transitions.
- Added `StateScoped` for binding entity lifetime to state and app
`enable_state_coped_entities` to register cleaning behavior.

# Objective
After separating `bevy_states`, state installation methods like
`init_state` were kept in `bevy_app` under the `bevy_state` feature
flag.
This is problematic, because `bevy_state` is not a core module,
`bevy_app` is, yet it depends on `bevy_state`.
This causes practical problems like the inability to use
`bevy_hierarchy` inside `bevy_state`, because of circular dependencies.
## Solution
- `bevy_state` now has a `bevy_app` feature flag, which gates the new
`AppStateExt` trait.
All previous state installation methods were moved to this trait.
It's implemented for both `SubApp` and `App`.
## Changelog
- All state related app methods are now in `AppExtStates` trait in
`bevy_state`.
- Added `StatesPlugin` which is in `DefaultPlugins` when `bevy_state` is
enabled.
## Migration Guide
`App::init_state` is now provided by the
`bevy_state::app::AppExtStates;` trait: import it if you need this
method and are not blob-importing the `bevy` prelude.
# Objective
Extracts the state mechanisms into a new crate called "bevy_state".
This comes with a few goals:
- state wasn't really an inherent machinery of the ecs system, and so
keeping it within bevy_ecs felt forced
- by mixing it in with bevy_ecs, the maintainability of our more robust
state system was significantly compromised
moving state into a new crate makes it easier to encapsulate as it's own
feature, and easier to read and understand since it's no longer a
single, massive file.
## Solution
move the state-related elements from bevy_ecs to a new crate
## Testing
- Did you test these changes? If so, how? all the automated tests
migrated and passed, ran the pre-existing examples without changes to
validate.
---
## Migration Guide
Since bevy_state is now gated behind the `bevy_state` feature, projects
that use state but don't use the `default-features` will need to add
that feature flag.
Since it is no longer part of bevy_ecs, projects that use bevy_ecs
directly will need to manually pull in `bevy_state`, trigger the
StateTransition schedule, and handle any of the elements that bevy_app
currently sets up.
