# Objective
When browsing the bevy source code to try and learn about
`bevy_core_pipeline`, I noticed that the `DrawFunctions` resources,
`sort_phase_system`s and texture preparation for the `Opaque3d` and
`AlphaMask3d` phase items are all set up in `bevy_core_pipeline`, while
the `Opaque3dPrepass` and `AlphaMask3dPrepass` phase items are only
*declared* in `bevy_core_pipeline`, and actually registered properly
with the renderer in `bevy_pbr`.
This means that, if I am trying to make crate that replaces `bevy_pbr`,
I need to make sure I manually fix this unfinished setup the same way
that `bevy_pbr` does. Worse, it means that if I try to use the
`PrepassNode` `bevy_core_pipeline` adds *without* fixing this, the
engine will simply crash because the `DrawFunctions<T>` resources cannot
be accessed.
The only advantage I can think of for bevy doing it this way is an
ambiguous performance save due to the prepass render phases not being
present unless you are using prepass materials with PBR.
## Solution
I have moved the registration of `DrawFunctions<T>`,
`sort_phase_system::<T>`, camera `RenderPhase` extraction, and texture
preparation for prepass's phase items into `bevy_core_pipeline`
alongside the equivalent code that sets up the `Opaque3d`, `AlphaMask3d`
and `Transparent3d` phase items.
Am open to tweaking this to improve the performance impact of prepass
things being around if the app doesn't use them if needed.
I've tested that the `shader_prepass` example still works with this
change.
# Objective
- Some reflect components weren't properly registered.
## Solution
- We register them
- I also sorted the register lines in `Plugin::build` in `bevy_ui`
### Note
How I did I find them:
- I picked up the list of `Component`s from the `Component` trait page
in rustdoc.
- Then I tried to register all of them. Removing the registration when
it doesn't implement `Reflect` to pass compilation.
- Then I added `app.register_type_data::<T, Foo>()`, for all Reflect
components. It panics if `T` is not registered.
- I repeated the last line N times until bevy stopped panicking at
startup
---
## Changelog
- Register the following components: `PrimaryWindow` `Fxaa`
`FogSettings` `NotShadowCaster` `NotShadowReceiver` `CalculatedClip`
`RelativeCursorPosition`
`AlphaMode` is not used as a component anywhere in the engine. It
shouldn't implement `Component`. It might mislead users into thinking it
has any effect as a component.
---
## Changelog
- Remove `Component` implementation for `AlphaMode`. It wasn't used by
anything.
## Migration Guide
`AlphaMode` is not a component anymore.
It wasn't used anywhere in the engine. If you were using it as a
component for your own purposes, you should use a newtype instead, as
follow:
```rust
#[derive(Component, Deref)]
struct MyAlphaMode(AlphaMode);
```
Then replace uses of `AlphaMode` with `MyAlphaMode`
```diff
- Query<&AlphaMode, …>,
+ Query<&MyAlphaMode, …>,
```
# Objective
- Introduce a stable alternative to
[`std::any::type_name`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/any/fn.type_name.html).
- Rewrite of #5805 with heavy inspiration in design.
- On the path to #5830.
- Part of solving #3327.
## Solution
- Add a `TypePath` trait for static stable type path/name information.
- Add a `TypePath` derive macro.
- Add a `impl_type_path` macro for implementing internal and foreign
types in `bevy_reflect`.
---
## Changelog
- Added `TypePath` trait.
- Added `DynamicTypePath` trait and `get_type_path` method to `Reflect`.
- Added a `TypePath` derive macro.
- Added a `bevy_reflect::impl_type_path` for implementing `TypePath` on
internal and foreign types in `bevy_reflect`.
- Changed `bevy_reflect::utility::(Non)GenericTypeInfoCell` to
`(Non)GenericTypedCell<T>` which allows us to be generic over both
`TypeInfo` and `TypePath`.
- `TypePath` is now a supertrait of `Asset`, `Material` and
`Material2d`.
- `impl_reflect_struct` needs a `#[type_path = "..."]` attribute to be
specified.
- `impl_reflect_value` needs to either specify path starting with a
double colon (`::core::option::Option`) or an `in my_crate::foo`
declaration.
- Added `bevy_reflect_derive::ReflectTypePath`.
- Most uses of `Ident` in `bevy_reflect_derive` changed to use
`ReflectTypePath`.
## Migration Guide
- Implementors of `Asset`, `Material` and `Material2d` now also need to
derive `TypePath`.
- Manual implementors of `Reflect` will need to implement the new
`get_type_path` method.
## Open Questions
- [x] ~This PR currently does not migrate any usages of
`std::any::type_name` to use `bevy_reflect::TypePath` to ease the review
process. Should it?~ Migration will be left to a follow-up PR.
- [ ] This PR adds a lot of `#[derive(TypePath)]` and `T: TypePath` to
satisfy new bounds, mostly when deriving `TypeUuid`. Should we make
`TypePath` a supertrait of `TypeUuid`? [Should we remove `TypeUuid` in
favour of
`TypePath`?](2afbd85532 (r961067892))
# Objective
- `apply_system_buffers` is an unhelpful name: it introduces a new
internal-only concept
- this is particularly rough for beginners as reasoning about how
commands work is a critical stumbling block
## Solution
- rename `apply_system_buffers` to the more descriptive `apply_deferred`
- rename related fields, arguments and methods in the internals fo
bevy_ecs for consistency
- update the docs
## Changelog
`apply_system_buffers` has been renamed to `apply_deferred`, to more
clearly communicate its intent and relation to `Deferred` system
parameters like `Commands`.
## Migration Guide
- `apply_system_buffers` has been renamed to `apply_deferred`
- the `apply_system_buffers` method on the `System` trait has been
renamed to `apply_deferred`
- the `is_apply_system_buffers` function has been replaced by
`is_apply_deferred`
- `Executor::set_apply_final_buffers` is now
`Executor::set_apply_final_deferred`
- `Schedule::apply_system_buffers` is now `Schedule::apply_deferred`

# Objective
- Make #8015 easier to review;
## Solution
- This commit contains changes not directly related to transmission
required by #8015, in easier-to-review, one-change-per-commit form.
---
## Changelog
### Fixed
- Clear motion vector prepass using `0.0` instead of `1.0`, to avoid TAA
artifacts on transparent objects against the background;
### Added
- The `E` mathematical constant is now available for use in shaders,
exposed under `bevy_pbr::utils`;
- A new `TAA` shader def is now available, for conditionally enabling
shader logic via `#ifdef` when TAA is enabled; (e.g. for jittering
texture samples)
- A new `FallbackImageZero` resource is introduced, for when a fallback
image filled with zeroes is required;
- A new `RenderPhase<I>::render_range()` method is introduced, for
render phases that need to render their items in multiple parceled out
“steps”;
### Changed
- The `MainTargetTextures` struct now holds both `Texture` and
`TextureViews` for the main textures;
- The fog shader functions under `bevy_pbr::fog` now take the a `Fog`
structure as their first argument, instead of relying on the global
`fog` uniform;
- The main textures can now be used as copy sources;
## Migration Guide
- `ViewTarget::main_texture()` and `ViewTarget::main_texture_other()`
now return `&Texture` instead of `&TextureView`. If you were relying on
these methods, replace your usage with
`ViewTarget::main_texture_view()`and
`ViewTarget::main_texture_other_view()`, respectively;
- `ViewTarget::sampled_main_texture()` now returns `Option<&Texture>`
instead of a `Option<&TextureView>`. If you were relying on this method,
replace your usage with `ViewTarget::sampled_main_texture_view()`;
- The `apply_fog()`, `linear_fog()`, `exponential_fog()`,
`exponential_squared_fog()` and `atmospheric_fog()` functions now take a
configurable `Fog` struct. If you were relying on them, update your
usage by adding the global `fog` uniform as their first argument;
# Objective
- Right now we can't really benefit from [early depth
testing](https://www.khronos.org/opengl/wiki/Early_Fragment_Test) in our
PBR shader because it includes codepaths with `discard`, even for
situations where they are not necessary.
## Solution
- This PR introduces a new `MeshPipelineKey` and shader def,
`MAY_DISCARD`;
- All possible material/mesh options that that may result in `discard`s
being needed must set `MAY_DISCARD` ahead of time:
- Right now, this is only `AlphaMode::Mask(f32)`, but in the future
might include other options/effects; (e.g. one effect I'm personally
interested in is bayer dither pseudo-transparency for LOD transitions of
opaque meshes)
- Shader codepaths that can `discard` are guarded by an `#ifdef
MAY_DISCARD` preprocessor directive:
- Right now, this is just one branch in `alpha_discard()`;
- If `MAY_DISCARD` is _not_ set, the `@early_depth_test` attribute is
added to the PBR fragment shader. This is a not yet documented, possibly
non-standard WGSL extension I found browsing Naga's source code. [I
opened a PR to document it
there](https://github.com/gfx-rs/naga/pull/2132). My understanding is
that for backends where this attribute is supported, it will force an
explicit opt-in to early depth test. (e.g. via
`layout(early_fragment_tests) in;` in GLSL)
## Caveats
- I included `@early_depth_test` for the sake of us being explicit, and
avoiding the need for the driver to be “smart” about enabling this
feature. That way, if we make a mistake and include a `discard`
unguarded by `MAY_DISCARD`, it will either produce errors or noticeable
visual artifacts so that we'll catch early, instead of causing a
performance regression.
- I'm not sure explicit early depth test is supported on the naga Metal
backend, which is what I'm currently using, so I can't really test the
explicit early depth test enable, I would like others with Vulkan/GL
hardware to test it if possible;
- I would like some guidance on how to measure/verify the performance
benefits of this;
- If I understand it correctly, this, or _something like this_ is needed
to fully reap the performance gains enabled by #6284;
- This will _most definitely_ conflict with #6284 and #6644. I can fix
the conflicts as needed, depending on whether/the order they end up
being merging in.
---
## Changelog
### Changed
- Early depth tests are now enabled whenever possible for meshes using
`StandardMaterial`, reducing the number of fragments evaluated for
scenes with lots of occlusions.
# Objective
- Support WebGPU
- alternative to #5027 that doesn't need any async / await
- fixes#8315
- Surprise fix#7318
## Solution
### For async renderer initialisation
- Update the plugin lifecycle:
- app builds the plugin
- calls `plugin.build`
- registers the plugin
- app starts the event loop
- event loop waits for `ready` of all registered plugins in the same
order
- returns `true` by default
- then call all `finish` then all `cleanup` in the same order as
registered
- then execute the schedule
In the case of the renderer, to avoid anything async:
- building the renderer plugin creates a detached task that will send
back the initialised renderer through a mutex in a resource
- `ready` will wait for the renderer to be present in the resource
- `finish` will take that renderer and place it in the expected
resources by other plugins
- other plugins (that expect the renderer to be available) `finish` are
called and they are able to set up their pipelines
- `cleanup` is called, only custom one is still for pipeline rendering
### For WebGPU support
- update the `build-wasm-example` script to support passing `--api
webgpu` that will build the example with WebGPU support
- feature for webgl2 was always enabled when building for wasm. it's now
in the default feature list and enabled on all platforms, so check for
this feature must also check that the target_arch is `wasm32`
---
## Migration Guide
- `Plugin::setup` has been renamed `Plugin::cleanup`
- `Plugin::finish` has been added, and plugins adding pipelines should
do it in this function instead of `Plugin::build`
```rust
// Before
impl Plugin for MyPlugin {
fn build(&self, app: &mut App) {
app.insert_resource::<MyResource>
.add_systems(Update, my_system);
let render_app = match app.get_sub_app_mut(RenderApp) {
Ok(render_app) => render_app,
Err(_) => return,
};
render_app
.init_resource::<RenderResourceNeedingDevice>()
.init_resource::<OtherRenderResource>();
}
}
// After
impl Plugin for MyPlugin {
fn build(&self, app: &mut App) {
app.insert_resource::<MyResource>
.add_systems(Update, my_system);
let render_app = match app.get_sub_app_mut(RenderApp) {
Ok(render_app) => render_app,
Err(_) => return,
};
render_app
.init_resource::<OtherRenderResource>();
}
fn finish(&self, app: &mut App) {
let render_app = match app.get_sub_app_mut(RenderApp) {
Ok(render_app) => render_app,
Err(_) => return,
};
render_app
.init_resource::<RenderResourceNeedingDevice>();
}
}
```
# Objective

# Objective
- Enabling AlphaMode::Opaque in the shader_prepass example crashes. The
issue seems to be that enabling opaque also generates vertex_uvs
Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/8273
## Solution
- Use the vertex_uvs in the shader if they are present
# Objective
- Mesh entities should cast shadows when not having Aabbs and having
NoFrustumCulling
- Fixes#8442
## Solution
- Mesh entities with NoFrustumCulling get no automatic Aabbs added
- Point and spot lights do not cull mesh entities for their shadow
mapping if they do not have an Aabb, but directional lights do
- Make directional lights not cull mesh entities from cascades if the do
not have Aabbs. So no Aabb as a consequence of a NoFrustumCulling
component will mean that those mesh entities are not culled and so are
visible to the light.
---
## Changelog
- Fixed: Mesh entities with NoFrustumCulling will cast shadows for
directional light shadow maps
# Objective
The default StandardMaterial values of `pbr_material.rs` and
`pbr_types.wgsl` are out of sync.
I think they are out of sync since
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/7664.
## Solution
Adapt the values: `metallic = 0.0`, `perceptual_roughness = 0.5`.
Fixes issue mentioned in PR #8285.
_Note: By mistake, this is currently dependent on #8285_
# Objective
Ensure consistency in the spelling of the documentation.
Exceptions:
`crates/bevy_mikktspace/src/generated.rs` - Has not been changed from
licence to license as it is part of a licensing agreement.
Maybe for further consistency,

# Objective
The clippy lint `type_complexity` is known not to play well with bevy.
It frequently triggers when writing complex queries, and taking the
lint's advice of using a type alias almost always just obfuscates the
code with no benefit. Because of this, this lint is currently ignored in
CI, but unfortunately it still shows up when viewing bevy code in an
IDE.
As someone who's made a fair amount of pull requests to this repo, I
will say that this issue has been a consistent thorn in my side. Since
bevy code is filled with spurious, ignorable warnings, it can be very
difficult to spot the *real* warnings that must be fixed -- most of the
time I just ignore all warnings, only to later find out that one of them
was real after I'm done when CI runs.
## Solution
Suppress this lint in all bevy crates. This was previously attempted in
#7050, but the review process ended up making it more complicated than
it needs to be and landed on a subpar solution.
The discussion in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/pull/10571
explores some better long-term solutions to this problem. Since there is
no timeline on when these solutions may land, we should resolve this
issue in the meantime by locally suppressing these lints.
### Unresolved issues
Currently, these lints are not suppressed in our examples, since that
would require suppressing the lint in every single source file. They are
still ignored in CI.
# Objective
- Closes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/8008
## Solution
- Add a skybox plugin that renders a fullscreen triangle, and then
modifies the vertices in a vertex shader to enforce that it renders as a
skybox background.
- Skybox is run at the end of MainOpaquePass3dNode.
- In the future, it would be nice to get something like bevy_atmosphere
built-in, and have a default skybox+environment map light.
---
## Changelog
- Added `Skybox`.
- `EnvironmentMapLight` now renders in the correct orientation.
## Migration Guide
- Flip `EnvironmentMapLight` maps if needed to match how they previously
rendered (which was backwards).

# Objective
- We support enabling a normal prepass, but the main pass never actually
uses it and recomputes the normals in the main pass. This isn't ideal
since it's doing redundant work.
## Solution
- Use the normal texture from the prepass in the main pass
## Notes
~~I used `NORMAL_PREPASS_ENABLED` as a shader_def because
`NORMAL_PREPASS` is currently used to signify that it is running in the
prepass while this shader_def need to indicate the prepass is done and
the normal prepass was ran before. I'm not sure if there's a better way
to name this.~~
# Objective
Fixes#8089.
## Solution
Splits the MainPass3dNode into 2 nodes, one for the opaque + alpha
passes and one for the transparent pass.
---
## Changelog
- Split MainPass3dNode into MainOpaquePass3dNode and
MainTransparentPass3dNode
- Combine opaque and alpha phases in MainOpaquePass3dNode into one pass
- Create `START_MAIN_PASS` and `END_MAIN_PASS` empty nodes as labels
- Main pass becomes `START_MAIN_PASS -> MAIN_OPAQUE_PASS ->
MAIN_TRANSPARENT_PASS -> END_MAIN_PASS`
## Migration Guide
Nodes that previously added edges involving `MAIN_PASS` should now add
edges to or from `START_MAIN_PASS` or `END_MAIN_PASS` respectively.

- Makes the reference to `screen_space_dither` in pbr.wgsl conditional
on `#ifdef TONEMAP_IN_SHADER`, as the required import is conditional on
the same, as deband dithering can only occur if tonemapping is also
occurring.

# Objective
- Currently, the render graph slots are only used to pass the
view_entity around. This introduces significant boilerplate for very
little value. Instead of using slots for this, make the view_entity part
of the `RenderGraphContext`. This also means we won't need to have
`IN_VIEW` on every node and and we'll be able to use the default impl of
`Node::input()`.
## Solution
- Add `view_entity: Option<Entity>` to the `RenderGraphContext`
- Update all nodes to use this instead of entity slot input
---
## Changelog
- Add optional `view_entity` to `RenderGraphContext`
## Migration Guide
You can now get the view_entity directly from the `RenderGraphContext`.
When implementing the Node:
```rust
// 0.10
struct FooNode;
impl FooNode {
const IN_VIEW: &'static str = "view";
}
impl Node for FooNode {
fn input(&self) -> Vec<SlotInfo> {
vec![SlotInfo::new(Self::IN_VIEW, SlotType::Entity)]
}
fn run(
&self,
graph: &mut RenderGraphContext,
// ...
) -> Result<(), NodeRunError> {
let view_entity = graph.get_input_entity(Self::IN_VIEW)?;
// ...
Ok(())
}
}
// 0.11
struct FooNode;
impl Node for FooNode {
fn run(
&self,
graph: &mut RenderGraphContext,
// ...
) -> Result<(), NodeRunError> {
let view_entity = graph.view_entity();
// ...
Ok(())
}
}
```
When adding the node to the graph, you don't need to specify a slot_edge
for the view_entity.
```rust
// 0.10
let mut graph = RenderGraph::default();
graph.add_node(FooNode::NAME, node);
let input_node_id = draw_2d_graph.set_input(vec![SlotInfo::new(
graph::input::VIEW_ENTITY,
SlotType::Entity,
)]);
graph.add_slot_edge(
input_node_id,
graph::input::VIEW_ENTITY,
FooNode::NAME,
FooNode::IN_VIEW,
);
// add_node_edge ...
// 0.11
let mut graph = RenderGraph::default();
graph.add_node(FooNode::NAME, node);
// add_node_edge ...
```
## Notes
This PR paired with #8007 will help reduce a lot of annoying boilerplate
with the render nodes. Depending on which one gets merged first. It will
require a bit of clean up work to make both compatible.
I tagged this as a breaking change, because using the old system to get
the view_entity will break things because it's not a node input slot
anymore.
## Notes for reviewers
A lot of the diffs are just removing the slots in every nodes and graph
creation. The important part is mostly in the
graph_runner/CameraDriverNode.
# Objective
- @mockersf identified a performance regression of about 25% longer frame times introduced by #7784 in a complex scene with the Amazon Lumberyard bistro scene with both exterior and interior variants and a number of point lights with shadow mapping enabled
- The additional time seemed to be spent in the `ShadowPassNode`
- `ShadowPassNode` encodes the draw commands for the shadow phase. Roughly the same numbers of entities were having draw commands encoded, so something about the way they were being encoded had changed.
- One thing that definitely changed was that the pipeline used will be different depending on the alpha mode, and the scene has lots entities with opaque and blend materials. This suggested that maybe the pipeline was changing a lot so I tried a quick hack to see if it was the problem.
## Solution
- Sort the shadow phase items by their pipeline id
- This groups phase items by their pipeline id, which significantly reduces pipeline rebinding required to the point that the performance regression was gone.
# Objective
revert combining pipelines for AlphaMode::Blend and AlphaMode::Premultiplied & Add
the recent blend state pr changed `AlphaMode::Blend` to use a blend state of `Blend::PREMULTIPLIED_ALPHA_BLENDING`, and recovered the original behaviour by multiplying colour by alpha in the standard material's fragment shader.
this had some advantages (specifically it means more material instances can be batched together in future), but this also means that custom materials that specify `AlphaMode::Blend` now get a premultiplied blend state, so they must also multiply colour by alpha.
## Solution
revert that combination to preserve 0.9 behaviour for custom materials with AlphaMode::Blend.
This produces more accurate results for the `EmissiveStrengthTest` glTF test case.
(Requires manually setting the emission, for now)

Tagging @JMS55 as a co-author, since this fix is based on their experiments with emission.
# Objective
- Have more accurate results for the `EmissiveStrengthTest` glTF test case.
## Solution
- Make sure we send the emissive color as linear instead of sRGB.
---
## Changelog
- Emission strength is now correctly interpreted by the `StandardMaterial` as linear instead of sRGB.
## Migration Guide
- If you have previously manually specified emissive values with `Color::rgb()` and would like to retain the old visual results, you must now use `Color::rgb_linear()` instead;
- If you have previously manually specified emissive values with `Color::rgb_linear()` and would like to retain the old visual results, you'll need to apply a one-time gamma calculation to your channels manually to get the _actual_ linear RGB value:
- For channel values greater than `0.0031308`, use `(1.055 * value.powf(1.0 / 2.4)) - 0.055`;
- For channel values lower than or equal to `0.0031308`, use `value * 12.92`;
- Otherwise, the results should now be more consistent with other tools/engines.
# Objective
the current depth bias only adjusts ordering, so it doesn't work for opaque meshes vs alpha-blend meshes, and it doesn't help when two meshes are infinitesimally offset from one another.
## Solution
pass the material's depth bias into the pipeline depth stencil `constant` field.
# Objective
Unfortunately, there are three issues with my changes introduced by #7784.
1. The changes left some dead code. This is already taken care of here: #7875.
2. Disabling prepass causes failures because the shadow mapping relies on the `PrepassPlugin` now.
3. Custom materials use the `prepass.wgsl` shader, but this does not always define a fragment entry point.
This PR fixes 2. and 3. and resolves#7879.
## Solution
- Add a regression test with disabled prepass.
- Split `PrepassPlugin` into two plugins:
- `PrepassPipelinePlugin` contains the part that is required for the shadow mapping to work and is unconditionally added.
- `PrepassPlugin` now only adds the systems and resources required for the "real" prepasses.
- Add a noop fragment entry point to `prepass.wgsl`, used if `NORMAL_PASS` is not defined.

# Objective
- Remove dead code after #7784
# Changelog
- Removed `SetShadowViewBindGroup`, `queue_shadow_view_bind_group()`, and `LightMeta::shadow_view_bind_group` in favor of reusing the prepass view bind group.
# Migration Guide
- Removed `SetShadowViewBindGroup`, `queue_shadow_view_bind_group()`, and `LightMeta::shadow_view_bind_group` in favor of reusing the prepass view bind group.
# Objective
- Fixes#4372.
## Solution
- Use the prepass shaders for the shadow passes.
- Move `DEPTH_CLAMP_ORTHO` from `ShadowPipelineKey` to `MeshPipelineKey` and the associated clamp operation from `depth.wgsl` to `prepass.wgsl`.
- Remove `depth.wgsl` .
- Replace `ShadowPipeline` with `ShadowSamplers`.
Instead of running the custom `ShadowPipeline` we run the `PrepassPipeline` with the `DEPTH_PREPASS` flag and additionally the `DEPTH_CLAMP_ORTHO` flag for directional lights as well as the `ALPHA_MASK` flag for materials that use `AlphaMode::Mask(_)`.
# Objective
Fixes#7797
## Solution
This **seems** like a simple fix, but I'm not 100% confident and I may have messed up the math in some way. In particular, I'm not sure what I should be using for an FOV value.
However, this seems to be producing similar results to 0.9.
Here's the `orthographic` example with a default directional light.
edit: better screen grab below.
# Objective
- Use the prepass textures in webgl
## Solution
- Bind the prepass textures even when using webgl, but only if msaa is disabled
- Also did some refactors to centralize how textures are bound, similar to the EnvironmentMapLight PR
- ~~Also did some refactors of the example to make it work in webgl~~
- ~~To make the example work in webgl, I needed to use a sampler for the depth texture, the resulting code looks a bit weird, but it's simple enough and I think it's worth it to show how it works when using webgl~~
# Objective
Support the following syntax for adding systems:
```rust
App::new()
.add_system(setup.on_startup())
.add_systems((
show_menu.in_schedule(OnEnter(GameState::Paused)),
menu_ssytem.in_set(OnUpdate(GameState::Paused)),
hide_menu.in_schedule(OnExit(GameState::Paused)),
))
```
## Solution
Add the traits `IntoSystemAppConfig{s}`, which provide the extension methods necessary for configuring which schedule a system belongs to. These extension methods return `IntoSystemAppConfig{s}`, which `App::add_system{s}` uses to choose which schedule to add systems to.
---
## Changelog
+ Added the extension methods `in_schedule(label)` and `on_startup()` for configuring the schedule a system belongs to.
## Future Work
* Replace all uses of `add_startup_system` in the engine.
* Deprecate this method
# Objective
- ambiguities bad
## Solution
- solve ambiguities
- by either ignoring (e.g. on `queue_mesh_view_bind_groups` since `LightMeta` access is different)
- by introducing a dependency (`prepare_windows -> prepare_*` because the latter use the fallback Msaa)
- make `prepare_assets` public so that we can do a proper `.after`
# Objective
Currently, it is quite awkward to use the `pbr` function in a custom shader without binding a mesh bind group.
This is because the `pbr` function depends on the `MESH_FLAGS_SHADOW_RECEIVER_BIT` flag.
## Solution
I have removed this dependency by adding the flag as a parameter to the `PbrInput` struct.
I am not sure if this is the ideal solution since the mesh flag indicates both `MESH_FLAGS_SIGN_DETERMINANT_MODEL_3X3_BIT` and `MESH_FLAGS_SHADOW_RECEIVER_BIT`.
The former seems to be unrelated to PBR. Maybe the flag should be split.
# Objective
- Fix the environment map shader not working under webgl due to textureNumLevels() not being supported
- Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/7722
## Solution
- Instead of using textureNumLevels(), put an extra field in the GpuLights uniform to store the mip count
