text2d example: animate_scale no longer unnecessarily performs the same translation at each Update (#11936)
# Objective - The `transform.translation` of a `TextBundle` in this example is unnecessarily set to the same constant position over and over in each `Update`. Newbies might be confused as to why this translation is being performed over and over. ## Solution - perform the translation only once, when the `Text2dBundle` is instantiated |

Un-hardcode positions and colors in 2d_shapes example (#11867)
# Objective We recently got some neat new 2d shapes and the shapes are no longer centered on the screen. The hardcoded positions and colors are a pain to deal with when a new shape is added. ## Solution Delete a bunch of code and position shapes evenly.

Dedicated primitive example (#11697)
I just implemented this to record a video for the new blog post, but I figured it would also make a good dedicated example. This also allows us to remove a lot of code from the 2d/3d gizmo examples since it supersedes this portion of code. Depends on: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/11699 |

Optional ImageScaleMode (#11780)
> Follow up to #11600 and #10588 @mockersf expressed some [valid concerns](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/11600#issuecomment-1932796498) about the current system this PR attempts to fix: The `ComputedTextureSlices` reacts to asset change in both `bevy_sprite` and `bevy_ui`, meaning that if the `ImageScaleMode` is inserted by default in the bundles, we will iterate through most 2d items every time an asset is updated. # Solution - `ImageScaleMode` only has two variants: `Sliced` and `Tiled`. I removed the `Stretched` default - `ImageScaleMode` is no longer part of any bundle, but the relevant bundles explain that this additional component can be inserted This way, the *absence* of `ImageScaleMode` means the image will be stretched, and its *presence* will include the entity to the various slicing systems Optional components in bundles would make this more straigthfoward # Additional work Should I add new bundles with the `ImageScaleMode` component ? |

Deprecate shapes in bevy_render::mesh::shape (#11773)
# Objective #11431 and #11688 implemented meshing support for Bevy's new geometric primitives. The next step is to deprecate the shapes in `bevy_render::mesh::shape` and to later remove them completely for 0.14. ## Solution Deprecate the shapes and reduce code duplication by utilizing the primitive meshing API for the old shapes where possible. Note that some shapes have behavior that can't be exactly reproduced with the new primitives yet: - `Box` is more of an AABB with min/max extents - `Plane` supports a subdivision count - `Quad` has a `flipped` property These types have not been changed to utilize the new primitives yet. --- ## Changelog - Deprecated all shapes in `bevy_render::mesh::shape` - Changed all examples to use new primitives for meshing ## Migration Guide Bevy has previously used rendering-specific types like `UVSphere` and `Quad` for primitive mesh shapes. These have now been deprecated to use the geometric primitives newly introduced in version 0.13. Some examples: ```rust let before = meshes.add(shape::Box::new(5.0, 0.15, 5.0)); let after = meshes.add(Cuboid::new(5.0, 0.15, 5.0)); let before = meshes.add(shape::Quad::default()); let after = meshes.add(Rectangle::default()); let before = meshes.add(shape::Plane::from_size(5.0)); // The surface normal can now also be specified when using `new` let after = meshes.add(Plane3d::default().mesh().size(5.0, 5.0)); let before = meshes.add( Mesh::try_from(shape::Icosphere { radius: 0.5, subdivisions: 5, }) .unwrap(), ); let after = meshes.add(Sphere::new(0.5).mesh().ico(5).unwrap()); ``` |

UI Texture 9 slice (#11600)
> Follow up to #10588 > Closes #11749 (Supersedes #11756) Enable Texture slicing for the following UI nodes: - `ImageBundle` - `ButtonBundle` <img width="739" alt="Screenshot 2024-01-29 at 13 57 43" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/26703856/37675681-74eb-4689-ab42-024310cf3134"> I also added a collection of `fantazy-ui-borders` from [Kenney's](www.kenney.nl) assets, with the appropriate license (CC). If it's a problem I can use the same textures as the `sprite_slice` example # Work done Added the `ImageScaleMode` component to the targetted bundles, most of the logic is directly reused from `bevy_sprite`. The only additional internal component is the UI specific `ComputedSlices`, which does the same thing as its spritee equivalent but adapted to UI code. Again the slicing is not compatible with `TextureAtlas`, it's something I need to tackle more deeply in the future # Fixes * [x] I noticed that `TextureSlicer::compute_slices` could infinitely loop if the border was larger that the image half extents, now an error is triggered and the texture will fallback to being stretched * [x] I noticed that when using small textures with very small *tiling* options we could generate hundred of thousands of slices. Now I set a minimum size of 1 pixel per slice, which is already ridiculously small, and a warning will be sent at runtime when slice count goes above 1000 * [x] Sprite slicing with `flip_x` or `flip_y` would give incorrect results, correct flipping is now supported to both sprites and ui image nodes thanks to @odecay observation # GPU Alternative I create a separate branch attempting to implementing 9 slicing and tiling directly through the `ui.wgsl` fragment shader. It works but requires sending more data to the GPU: - slice border - tiling factors And more importantly, the actual quad *scale* which is hard to put in the shader with the current code, so that would be for a later iteration |

Mesh insert indices (#11745)
# Objective - Fixes #11740 ## Solution - Turned `Mesh::set_indices` into `Mesh::insert_indices` and added related methods for completeness. --- ## Changelog - Replaced `Mesh::set_indices(indices: Option<Indices>)` with `Mesh::insert_indices(indices: Indices)` - Replaced `Mesh::with_indices(indices: Option<Indices>)` with `Mesh::with_inserted_indices(indices: Indices)` and `Mesh::with_removed_indices()` mirroring the API for inserting / removing attributes. - Updated the examples and internal uses of the APIs described above. ## Migration Guide - Use `Mesh::insert_indices` or `Mesh::with_inserted_indices` instead of `Mesh::set_indices` / `Mesh::with_indices`. - If you have passed `None` to `Mesh::set_indices` or `Mesh::with_indices` you should use `Mesh::remove_indices` or `Mesh::with_removed_indices` instead. --------- Co-authored-by: François <mockersf@gmail.com> |

Implement meshing for Capsule2d (#11639)
# Objective The `Capsule2d` primitive was added in #11585. It should support meshing like the other 2D primitives. ## Solution Implement meshing for `Capsule2d`. It doesn't currently support "rings" like Bevy's `Capsule` shape (not `Capsule3d`), but it does support resolution to control the number of vertices used for one hemicircle. The total vertex count is two times the resolution; if we allowed setting the full vertex count, odd numbers would lead to uneven vertex counts for the top and bottom hemicircles and produce potentially unwanted results. The capsule looks like this (with UV visualization and wireframe) using resolutions of 16, 8, and 3:    The `2d_shapes` example now includes the capsule, so we also get one more color of the rainbow 🌈  |

Drawing Primitives with Gizmos (#11072)
The PR is in a reviewable state now in the sense that the basic implementations are there. There are still some ToDos that I'm aware of: - [x] docs for all the new structs and traits - [x] implement `Default` and derive other useful traits for the new structs - [x] Take a look at the notes again (Do this after a first round of reviews) - [x] Take care of the repetition in the circle drawing functions --- # Objective - TLDR: This PR enables us to quickly draw all the newly added primitives from `bevy_math` in immediate mode with gizmos - Addresses #10571 ## Solution - This implements the first design idea I had that covered everything that was mentioned in the Issue https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/10571#issuecomment-1863646197 --- ## Caveats - I added the `Primitive(2/3)d` impls for `Direction(2/3)d` to make them work with the current solution. We could impose less strict requirements for the gizmoable objects and remove the impls afterwards if the community doesn't like the current approach. --- ## Changelog - implement capabilities to draw ellipses on the gizmo in general (this was required to have some code which is able to draw the ellipse primitive) - refactored circle drawing code to use the more general ellipse drawing code to keep code duplication low - implement `Primitive2d` for `Direction2d` and impl `Primitive3d` for `Direction3d` - implement trait to draw primitives with specialized details with gizmos - `GizmoPrimitive2d` for all the 2D primitives - `GizmoPrimitive3d` for all the 3D primitives - (question while writing this: Does it actually matter if we split this in 2D and 3D? I guess it could be useful in the future if we do something based on the main rendering mode even though atm it's kinda useless) --- --------- Co-authored-by: nothendev <borodinov.ilya@gmail.com> |

RenderAssetPersistencePolicy → RenderAssetUsages (#11399)
# Objective Right now, all assets in the main world get extracted and prepared in the render world (if the asset's using the RenderAssetPlugin). This is unfortunate for two cases: 1. **TextureAtlas** / **FontAtlas**: This one's huge. The individual `Image` assets that make up the atlas are cloned and prepared individually when there's no reason for them to be. The atlas textures are built on the CPU in the main world. *There can be hundreds of images that get prepared for rendering only not to be used.* 2. If one loads an Image and needs to transform it in a system before rendering it, kind of like the [decompression example](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/blob/main/examples/asset/asset_decompression.rs#L120), there's a price paid for extracting & preparing the asset that's not intended to be rendered yet. ------ * References #10520 * References #1782 ## Solution This changes the `RenderAssetPersistencePolicy` enum to bitflags. I felt that the objective with the parameter is so similar in nature to wgpu's [`TextureUsages`](https://docs.rs/wgpu/latest/wgpu/struct.TextureUsages.html) and [`BufferUsages`](https://docs.rs/wgpu/latest/wgpu/struct.BufferUsages.html), that it may as well be just like that. ```rust // This asset only needs to be in the main world. Don't extract and prepare it. RenderAssetUsages::MAIN_WORLD // Keep this asset in the main world and RenderAssetUsages::MAIN_WORLD | RenderAssetUsages::RENDER_WORLD // This asset is only needed in the render world. Remove it from the asset server once extracted. RenderAssetUsages::RENDER_WORLD ``` ### Alternate Solution I considered introducing a third field to `RenderAssetPersistencePolicy` enum: ```rust enum RenderAssetPersistencePolicy { /// Keep the asset in the main world after extracting to the render world. Keep, /// Remove the asset from the main world after extracting to the render world. Unload, /// This doesn't need to be in the render world at all. NoExtract, // <----- } ``` Functional, but this seemed like shoehorning. Another option is renaming the enum to something like: ```rust enum RenderAssetExtractionPolicy { /// Extract the asset and keep it in the main world. Extract, /// Remove the asset from the main world after extracting to the render world. ExtractAndUnload, /// This doesn't need to be in the render world at all. NoExtract, } ``` I think this last one could be a good option if the bitflags are too clunky. ## Migration Guide * `RenderAssetPersistencePolicy::Keep` → `RenderAssetUsage::MAIN_WORLD | RenderAssetUsage::RENDER_WORLD` (or `RenderAssetUsage::default()`) * `RenderAssetPersistencePolicy::Unload` → `RenderAssetUsage::RENDER_WORLD` * For types implementing the `RenderAsset` trait, change `fn persistence_policy(&self) -> RenderAssetPersistencePolicy` to `fn asset_usage(&self) -> RenderAssetUsages`. * Change any references to `cpu_persistent_access` (`RenderAssetPersistencePolicy`) to `asset_usage` (`RenderAssetUsage`). This applies to `Image`, `Mesh`, and a few other types. |

Add Meshable trait and implement meshing for 2D primitives (#11431)
# Objective The first part of #10569, split up from #11007. The goal is to implement meshing support for Bevy's new geometric primitives, starting with 2D primitives. 3D meshing will be added in a follow-up, and we can consider removing the old mesh shapes completely. ## Solution Add a `Meshable` trait that primitives need to implement to support meshing, as suggested by the [RFC](https://github.com/bevyengine/rfcs/blob/main/rfcs/12-primitive-shapes.md#meshing). ```rust /// A trait for shapes that can be turned into a [`Mesh`]. pub trait Meshable { /// The output of [`Self::mesh`]. This can either be a [`Mesh`] /// or a builder used for creating a [`Mesh`]. type Output; /// Creates a [`Mesh`] for a shape. fn mesh(&self) -> Self::Output; } ``` This PR implements it for the following primitives: - `Circle` - `Ellipse` - `Rectangle` - `RegularPolygon` - `Triangle2d` The `mesh` method typically returns a builder-like struct such as `CircleMeshBuilder`. This is needed to support shape-specific configuration for things like mesh resolution or UV configuration: ```rust meshes.add(Circle { radius: 0.5 }.mesh().resolution(64)); ``` Note that if no configuration is needed, you can even skip calling `mesh` because `From<MyPrimitive>` is implemented for `Mesh`: ```rust meshes.add(Circle { radius: 0.5 }); ``` I also updated the `2d_shapes` example to use primitives, and tweaked the colors to have better contrast against the dark background. Before:  After:  Here you can see the UVs and different facing directions: (taken from #11007, so excuse the 3D primitives at the bottom left)  --- ## Changelog - Added `bevy_render::mesh::primitives` module - Added `Meshable` trait and implemented it for: - `Circle` - `Ellipse` - `Rectangle` - `RegularPolygon` - `Triangle2d` - Implemented `Default` and `Copy` for several 2D primitives - Updated `2d_shapes` example to use primitives - Tweaked colors in `2d_shapes` example to have better contrast against the (new-ish) dark background --------- Co-authored-by: Alice Cecile <alice.i.cecile@gmail.com> |

Allow TextureAtlasBuilder in AssetLoader (#11548)
# Objective Allow TextureAtlasBuilder in AssetLoader. Fixes #2987 ## Solution - TextureAtlasBuilder no longer hold just AssetIds that are used to retrieve the actual image data in `finish`, but &Image instead. - TextureAtlasBuilder now required AssetId only optionally (and it is only used to retrieve the index from the AssetId in TextureAtlasLayout), ## Issues - The issue mentioned here https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/11474#issuecomment-1904676937 now also extends to the actual atlas texture. In short: Calling add_texture multiple times for the same texture will lead to duplicate image data in the atlas texture and additional indices. If you provide an AssetId we can probably do something to de-duplicate the entries while keeping insertion order (suggestions welcome on how exactly). But if you don't then we are out of luck (unless we can and want to hash the image, which I do not think we want). --- ## Changelog ### Changed - TextureAtlasBuilder `add_texture` can be called without providing an AssetId - TextureAtlasBuilder `finish` no longer takes Assets<Image> and no longer returns a Handle<Image> ## Migration Guide - For `add_texture` you need to wrap your AssetId in Some - `finish` now returns the atlas texture image directly instead of a handle. Provide the atlas texture to `add` on Assets<Texture> to get a Handle<Image> |

Multiple Configurations for Gizmos (#10342)
# Objective This PR aims to implement multiple configs for gizmos as discussed in #9187. ## Solution Configs for the new `GizmoConfigGroup`s are stored in a `GizmoConfigStore` resource and can be accesses using a type based key or iterated over. This type based key doubles as a standardized location where plugin authors can put their own configuration not covered by the standard `GizmoConfig` struct. For example the `AabbGizmoGroup` has a default color and toggle to show all AABBs. New configs can be registered using `app.init_gizmo_group::<T>()` during startup. When requesting the `Gizmos<T>` system parameter the generic type determines which config is used. The config structs are available through the `Gizmos` system parameter allowing for easy access while drawing your gizmos. Internally, resources and systems used for rendering (up to an including the extract system) are generic over the type based key and inserted on registering a new config. ## Alternatives The configs could be stored as components on entities with markers which would make better use of the ECS. I also implemented this approach ([here](https://github.com/jeliag/bevy/tree/gizmo-multiconf-comp)) and believe that the ergonomic benefits of a central config store outweigh the decreased use of the ECS. ## Unsafe Code Implementing system parameter by hand is unsafe but seems to be required to access the config store once and not on every gizmo draw function call. This is critical for performance. ~Is there a better way to do this?~ ## Future Work New gizmos (such as #10038, and ideas from #9400) will require custom configuration structs. Should there be a new custom config for every gizmo type, or should we group them together in a common configuration? (for example `EditorGizmoConfig`, or something more fine-grained) ## Changelog - Added `GizmoConfigStore` resource and `GizmoConfigGroup` trait - Added `init_gizmo_group` to `App` - Added early returns to gizmo drawing increasing performance when gizmos are disabled - Changed `GizmoConfig` and aabb gizmos to use new `GizmoConfigStore` - Changed `Gizmos` system parameter to use type based key to retrieve config - Changed resources and systems used for gizmo rendering to be generic over type based key - Changed examples (3d_gizmos, 2d_gizmos) to showcase new API ## Migration Guide - `GizmoConfig` is no longer a resource and has to be accessed through `GizmoConfigStore` resource. The default config group is `DefaultGizmoGroup`, but consider using your own custom config group if applicable. --------- Co-authored-by: Nicola Papale <nicopap@users.noreply.github.com> |

Texture Atlas rework (#5103)
# Objective > Old MR: #5072 > ~~Associated UI MR: #5070~~ > Adresses #1618 Unify sprite management ## Solution - Remove the `Handle<Image>` field in `TextureAtlas` which is the main cause for all the boilerplate - Remove the redundant `TextureAtlasSprite` component - Renamed `TextureAtlas` asset to `TextureAtlasLayout` ([suggestion](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/5103#discussion_r917281844)) - Add a `TextureAtlas` component, containing the atlas layout handle and the section index The difference between this solution and #5072 is that instead of the `enum` approach is that we can more easily manipulate texture sheets without any breaking changes for classic `SpriteBundle`s (@mockersf [comment](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/5072#issuecomment-1165836139)) Also, this approach is more *data oriented* extracting the `Handle<Image>` and avoiding complex texture atlas manipulations to retrieve the texture in both applicative and engine code. With this method, the only difference between a `SpriteBundle` and a `SpriteSheetBundle` is an **additional** component storing the atlas handle and the index. ~~This solution can be applied to `bevy_ui` as well (see #5070).~~ EDIT: I also applied this solution to Bevy UI ## Changelog - (**BREAKING**) Removed `TextureAtlasSprite` - (**BREAKING**) Renamed `TextureAtlas` to `TextureAtlasLayout` - (**BREAKING**) `SpriteSheetBundle`: - Uses a `Sprite` instead of a `TextureAtlasSprite` component - Has a `texture` field containing a `Handle<Image>` like the `SpriteBundle` - Has a new `TextureAtlas` component instead of a `Handle<TextureAtlasLayout>` - (**BREAKING**) `DynamicTextureAtlasBuilder::add_texture` takes an additional `&Handle<Image>` parameter - (**BREAKING**) `TextureAtlasLayout::from_grid` no longer takes a `Handle<Image>` parameter - (**BREAKING**) `TextureAtlasBuilder::finish` now returns a `Result<(TextureAtlasLayout, Handle<Image>), _>` - `bevy_text`: - `GlyphAtlasInfo` stores the texture `Handle<Image>` - `FontAtlas` stores the texture `Handle<Image>` - `bevy_ui`: - (**BREAKING**) Removed `UiAtlasImage` , the atlas bundle is now identical to the `ImageBundle` with an additional `TextureAtlas` ## Migration Guide * Sprites ```diff fn my_system( mut images: ResMut<Assets<Image>>, - mut atlases: ResMut<Assets<TextureAtlas>>, + mut atlases: ResMut<Assets<TextureAtlasLayout>>, asset_server: Res<AssetServer> ) { let texture_handle: asset_server.load("my_texture.png"); - let layout = TextureAtlas::from_grid(texture_handle, Vec2::new(25.0, 25.0), 5, 5, None, None); + let layout = TextureAtlasLayout::from_grid(Vec2::new(25.0, 25.0), 5, 5, None, None); let layout_handle = atlases.add(layout); commands.spawn(SpriteSheetBundle { - sprite: TextureAtlasSprite::new(0), - texture_atlas: atlas_handle, + atlas: TextureAtlas { + layout: layout_handle, + index: 0 + }, + texture: texture_handle, ..Default::default() }); } ``` * UI ```diff fn my_system( mut images: ResMut<Assets<Image>>, - mut atlases: ResMut<Assets<TextureAtlas>>, + mut atlases: ResMut<Assets<TextureAtlasLayout>>, asset_server: Res<AssetServer> ) { let texture_handle: asset_server.load("my_texture.png"); - let layout = TextureAtlas::from_grid(texture_handle, Vec2::new(25.0, 25.0), 5, 5, None, None); + let layout = TextureAtlasLayout::from_grid(Vec2::new(25.0, 25.0), 5, 5, None, None); let layout_handle = atlases.add(layout); commands.spawn(AtlasImageBundle { - texture_atlas_image: UiTextureAtlasImage { - index: 0, - flip_x: false, - flip_y: false, - }, - texture_atlas: atlas_handle, + atlas: TextureAtlas { + layout: layout_handle, + index: 0 + }, + image: UiImage { + texture: texture_handle, + flip_x: false, + flip_y: false, + }, ..Default::default() }); } ``` --------- Co-authored-by: Alice Cecile <alice.i.cecile@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: François <mockersf@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: IceSentry <IceSentry@users.noreply.github.com> |

Sprite slicing and tiling (#10588)
> Replaces #5213 # Objective Implement sprite tiling and [9 slice scaling](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/9-slice_scaling) for `bevy_sprite`. Allowing slice scaling and texture tiling.

The addition of `ComputedTextureSlices` as a cache is to avoid querying the image data, to retrieve its dimensions, every frame in a extract or prepare stage. Also it reacts to changes so we can have stuff like this (tiling example): https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/26703856/a349a9f3-33c3-471f-8ef4-a0e5dfce3b01 # Related - [ ] Once #5103 or #10099 is merged I can enable tiling and slicing for texture sheets as ui # To discuss There is an other option, to consider slice/tiling as part of the asset, using the new asset preprocessing but I have no clue on how to do it. Also, instead of retrieving the Image dimensions, we could use the same system as the sprite sheet and have the user give the image dimensions directly (grid).

Use impl Into<A> for Assets::add (#10878)
# Motivation
When spawning entities into a scene, it is very common to create assets
like meshes and materials and to add them via asset handles. A common
setup might look like this:
```rust
fn setup(
mut commands: Commands,
mut meshes: ResMut<Assets<Mesh>>,
mut materials: ResMut<Assets<StandardMaterial>>,
) {
commands.spawn(PbrBundle {
mesh: meshes.add(Mesh::from(shape::Cube { size: 1.0 })),
material: materials.add(StandardMaterial::from(Color::RED)),
..default()
});
}
```
Let's take a closer look at the part that adds the assets using `add`.
```rust
mesh: meshes.add(Mesh::from(shape::Cube { size: 1.0 })),
material: materials.add(StandardMaterial::from(Color::RED)),
```
Here, "mesh" and "material" are both repeated three times. It's very
explicit, but I find it to be a bit verbose. In addition to being more
code to read and write, the extra characters can sometimes also lead to
the code being formatted to span multiple lines even though the core
task, adding e.g. a primitive mesh, is extremely simple.
A way to address this is by using `.into()`:
```rust
mesh: meshes.add(shape::Cube { size: 1.0 }.into()),
material: materials.add(Color::RED.into()),
```
This is fine, but from the names and the type of `meshes`, we already
know what the type should be. It's very clear that `Cube` should be
turned into a `Mesh` because of the context it's used in. `.into()` is
just seven characters, but it's so common that it quickly adds up and
gets annoying.
It would be nice if you could skip all of the conversion and let Bevy
handle it for you:
```rust
mesh: meshes.add(shape::Cube { size: 1.0 }),
material: materials.add(Color::RED),
```
# Objective
Make adding assets more ergonomic by making `Assets::add` take an `impl
Into<A>` instead of `A`.
## Solution
`Assets::add` now takes an `impl Into<A>` instead of `A`, so e.g. this
works:
```rust
commands.spawn(PbrBundle {
mesh: meshes.add(shape::Cube { size: 1.0 }),
material: materials.add(Color::RED),
..default()
});
```
I also changed all examples to use this API, which increases consistency
as well because `Mesh::from` and `into` were being used arbitrarily even
in the same file. This also gets rid of some lines of code because
formatting is nicer.
---
## Changelog
- `Assets::add` now takes an `impl Into<A>` instead of `A`
- Examples don't use `T::from(K)` or `K.into()` when adding assets
## Migration Guide
Some `into` calls that worked previously might now be broken because of
the new trait bounds. You need to either remove `into` or perform the
conversion explicitly with `from`:
```rust
// Doesn't compile
let mesh_handle = meshes.add(shape::Cube { size: 1.0 }.into()),
// These compile
let mesh_handle = meshes.add(shape::Cube { size: 1.0 }),
let mesh_handle = meshes.add(Mesh::from(shape::Cube { size: 1.0 })),
```
## Concerns
I believe the primary concerns might be:
1. Is this too implicit?
2. Does this increase codegen bloat?
Previously, the two APIs were using `into` or `from`, and now it's
"nothing" or `from`. You could argue that `into` is slightly more
explicit than "nothing" in cases like the earlier examples where a
`Color` gets converted to e.g. a `StandardMaterial`, but I personally
don't think `into` adds much value even in this case, and you could
still see the actual type from the asset type.
As for codegen bloat, I doubt it adds that much, but I'm not very
familiar with the details of codegen. I personally value the user-facing
code reduction and ergonomics improvements that these changes would
provide, but it might be worth checking the other effects in more
detail.
Another slight concern is migration pain; apps might have a ton of
`into` calls that would need to be removed, and it did take me a while
to do so for Bevy itself (maybe around 20-40 minutes). However, I think
the fact that there *are* so many `into` calls just highlights that the
API could be made nicer, and I'd gladly migrate my own projects for it.

Unload render assets from RAM (#10520)
# Objective - No point in keeping Meshes/Images in RAM once they're going to be sent to the GPU, and kept in VRAM. This saves a _significant_ amount of memory (several GBs) on scenes like bistro. - References - https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/1782 - https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8624 ## Solution - Augment RenderAsset with the capability to unload the underlying asset after extracting to the render world. - Mesh/Image now have a cpu_persistent_access field. If this field is RenderAssetPersistencePolicy::Unload, the asset will be unloaded from Assets<T>. - A new AssetEvent is sent upon dropping the last strong handle for the asset, which signals to the RenderAsset to remove the GPU version of the asset. --- ## Changelog - Added `AssetEvent::NoLongerUsed` and `AssetEvent::is_no_longer_used()`. This event is sent when the last strong handle of an asset is dropped. - Rewrote the API for `RenderAsset` to allow for unloading the asset data from the CPU. - Added `RenderAssetPersistencePolicy`. - Added `Mesh::cpu_persistent_access` for memory savings when the asset is not needed except for on the GPU. - Added `Image::cpu_persistent_access` for memory savings when the asset is not needed except for on the GPU. - Added `ImageLoaderSettings::cpu_persistent_access`. - Added `ExrTextureLoaderSettings`. - Added `HdrTextureLoaderSettings`. ## Migration Guide - Asset loaders (GLTF, etc) now load meshes and textures without `cpu_persistent_access`. These assets will be removed from `Assets<Mesh>` and `Assets<Image>` once `RenderAssets<Mesh>` and `RenderAssets<Image>` contain the GPU versions of these assets, in order to reduce memory usage. If you require access to the asset data from the CPU in future frames after the GLTF asset has been loaded, modify all dependent `Mesh` and `Image` assets and set `cpu_persistent_access` to `RenderAssetPersistencePolicy::Keep`. - `Mesh` now requires a new `cpu_persistent_access` field. Set it to `RenderAssetPersistencePolicy::Keep` to mimic the previous behavior. - `Image` now requires a new `cpu_persistent_access` field. Set it to `RenderAssetPersistencePolicy::Keep` to mimic the previous behavior. - `MorphTargetImage::new()` now requires a new `cpu_persistent_access` parameter. Set it to `RenderAssetPersistencePolicy::Keep` to mimic the previous behavior. - `DynamicTextureAtlasBuilder::add_texture()` now requires that the `TextureAtlas` you pass has an `Image` with `cpu_persistent_access: RenderAssetPersistencePolicy::Keep`. Ensure you construct the image properly for the texture atlas. - The `RenderAsset` trait has significantly changed, and requires adapting your existing implementations. - The trait now requires `Clone`. - The `ExtractedAsset` associated type has been removed (the type itself is now extracted). - The signature of `prepare_asset()` is slightly different - A new `persistence_policy()` method is now required (return RenderAssetPersistencePolicy::Unload to match the previous behavior). - Match on the new `NoLongerUsed` variant for exhaustive matches of `AssetEvent`. |

Add example for pixel-perfect grid snapping in 2D (#8112)
# Objective Provide an example of how to achieve pixel-perfect "grid snapping" in 2D via rendering to a texture. This is a common use case in retro pixel art game development. ## Solution Render sprites to a canvas via a Camera, then use another (scaled up) Camera to render the resulting canvas to the screen. This example is based on the `3d/render_to_texture.rs` example. Furthermore, this example demonstrates mixing retro-style graphics with high-resolution graphics, as well as pixel-snapped rendering of a `MaterialMesh2dBundle`. |

I decided on these names because they are more similar to `init_resource` and `insert_resource`. I also removed the `States` trait's requirement for `Default`. Instead, `init_state` requires `FromWorld`. --- ## Changelog - Renamed `App::add_state` to `init_state`. - Added `App::insert_state`. - Removed the `States` trait's requirement for `Default`. ## Migration Guide - Renamed `App::add_state` to `init_state`. |

Update winit dependency to 0.29 (#10702)
# 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. |

Swap material and mesh bind groups (#10485)

Semi-custom rendering setups (that don't use the Material or Material2d APIs) should adapt to these changes. |

Gave them four tips (as suggested by @alice-i-cecile in discord) instead of trying to decide what direction the tips should point. Made the tip length default to 1/10 of the arrow's length, which looked good enough to me. Hard-coded the angle from the body to the tips to 45 degrees. ## Still TODO - [x] actual doc comments - [x] doctests - [x] `ArrowBuilder.with_tip_length()` --- ## Changelog - Added `gizmos.arrow()` and `gizmos.arrow_2d()` - Added arrows to `2d_gizmos` and `3d_gizmos` examples ## Migration Guide N/A --------- Co-authored-by: Nicola Papale <nicopap@users.noreply.github.com> |

update shader imports (#10180)
# Objective
- bump naga_oil to 0.10
- update shader imports to use rusty syntax
## Migration Guide
naga_oil 0.10 reworks the import mechanism to support more syntax to
make it more rusty, and test for item use before importing to determine
which imports are modules and which are items, which allows:
- use rust-style imports
```
#import bevy_pbr::{
pbr_functions::{alpha_discard as discard, apply_pbr_lighting},
mesh_bindings,
}
```
- import partial paths:
```
#import part::of::path
...
path::remainder::function();
```
which will call to `part::of::path::remainder::function`
- use fully qualified paths without importing:
```
// #import bevy_pbr::pbr_functions
bevy_pbr::pbr_functions::pbr()
```
- use imported items without qualifying
```
#import bevy_pbr::pbr_functions::pbr
// for backwards compatibility the old style is still supported:
// #import bevy_pbr::pbr_functions pbr
...
pbr()
```
- allows most imported items to end with `_` and numbers (naga_oil#30).
still doesn't allow struct members to end with `_` or numbers but it's
progress.
- the vast majority of existing shader code will work without changes,
but will emit "deprecated" warnings for old-style imports. these can be
suppressed with the `allow-deprecated` feature.
- partly breaks overrides (as far as i'm aware nobody uses these yet) -
now overrides will only be applied if the overriding module is added as
an additional import in the arguments to `Composer::make_naga_module` or
`Composer::add_composable_module`. this is necessary to support
determining whether imports are modules or items.

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.

Automatic batching/instancing of draw commands (#9685)
# Objective - Implement the foundations of automatic batching/instancing of draw commands as the next step from #89 - NOTE: More performance improvements will come when more data is managed and bound in ways that do not require rebinding such as mesh, material, and texture data. ## Solution - The core idea for batching of draw commands is to check whether any of the information that has to be passed when encoding a draw command changes between two things that are being drawn according to the sorted render phase order. These should be things like the pipeline, bind groups and their dynamic offsets, index/vertex buffers, and so on. - The following assumptions have been made: - Only entities with prepared assets (pipelines, materials, meshes) are queued to phases - View bindings are constant across a phase for a given draw function as phases are per-view - `batch_and_prepare_render_phase` is the only system that performs this batching and has sole responsibility for preparing the per-object data. As such the mesh binding and dynamic offsets are assumed to only vary as a result of the `batch_and_prepare_render_phase` system, e.g. due to having to split data across separate uniform bindings within the same buffer due to the maximum uniform buffer binding size. - Implement `GpuArrayBuffer` for `Mesh2dUniform` to store Mesh2dUniform in arrays in GPU buffers rather than each one being at a dynamic offset in a uniform buffer. This is the same optimisation that was made for 3D not long ago. - Change batch size for a range in `PhaseItem`, adding API for getting or mutating the range. This is more flexible than a size as the length of the range can be used in place of the size, but the start and end can be otherwise whatever is needed. - Add an optional mesh bind group dynamic offset to `PhaseItem`. This avoids having to do a massive table move just to insert `GpuArrayBufferIndex` components. ## Benchmarks All tests have been run on an M1 Max on AC power. `bevymark` and `many_cubes` were modified to use 1920x1080 with a scale factor of 1. I run a script that runs a separate Tracy capture process, and then runs the bevy example with `--features bevy_ci_testing,trace_tracy` and `CI_TESTING_CONFIG=../benchmark.ron` with the contents of `../benchmark.ron`: ```rust ( exit_after: Some(1500) ) ``` ...in order to run each test for 1500 frames. The recent changes to `many_cubes` and `bevymark` added reproducible random number generation so that with the same settings, the same rng will occur. They also added benchmark modes that use a fixed delta time for animations. Combined this means that the same frames should be rendered both on main and on the branch. The graphs compare main (yellow) to this PR (red). ### 3D Mesh `many_cubes --benchmark` <img width="1411" alt="Screenshot 2023-09-03 at 23 42 10" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/2088716a-c918-486c-8129-090b26fd2bc4"> The mesh and material are the same for all instances. This is basically the best case for the initial batching implementation as it results in 1 draw for the ~11.7k visible meshes. It gives a ~30% reduction in median frame time. The 1000th frame is identical using the flip tool:  ``` Mean: 0.000000 Weighted median: 0.000000 1st weighted quartile: 0.000000 3rd weighted quartile: 0.000000 Min: 0.000000 Max: 0.000000 Evaluation time: 0.4615 seconds ``` ### 3D Mesh `many_cubes --benchmark --material-texture-count 10` <img width="1404" alt="Screenshot 2023-09-03 at 23 45 18" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/5ee9c447-5bd2-45c6-9706-ac5ff8916daf"> This run uses 10 different materials by varying their textures. The materials are randomly selected, and there is no sorting by material bind group for opaque 3D so any batching is 'random'. The PR produces a ~5% reduction in median frame time. If we were to sort the opaque phase by the material bind group, then this should be a lot faster. This produces about 10.5k draws for the 11.7k visible entities. This makes sense as randomly selecting from 10 materials gives a chance that two adjacent entities randomly select the same material and can be batched. The 1000th frame is identical in flip:  ``` Mean: 0.000000 Weighted median: 0.000000 1st weighted quartile: 0.000000 3rd weighted quartile: 0.000000 Min: 0.000000 Max: 0.000000 Evaluation time: 0.4537 seconds ``` ### 3D Mesh `many_cubes --benchmark --vary-per-instance` <img width="1394" alt="Screenshot 2023-09-03 at 23 48 44" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/f02a816b-a444-4c18-a96a-63b5436f3b7f"> This run varies the material data per instance by randomly-generating its colour. This is the worst case for batching and that it performs about the same as `main` is a good thing as it demonstrates that the batching has minimal overhead when dealing with ~11k visible mesh entities. The 1000th frame is identical according to flip:  ``` Mean: 0.000000 Weighted median: 0.000000 1st weighted quartile: 0.000000 3rd weighted quartile: 0.000000 Min: 0.000000 Max: 0.000000 Evaluation time: 0.4568 seconds ``` ### 2D Mesh `bevymark --benchmark --waves 160 --per-wave 1000 --mode mesh2d` <img width="1412" alt="Screenshot 2023-09-03 at 23 59 56" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/cb02ae07-237b-4646-ae9f-fda4dafcbad4"> This spawns 160 waves of 1000 quad meshes that are shaded with ColorMaterial. Each wave has a different material so 160 waves currently should result in 160 batches. This results in a 50% reduction in median frame time. Capturing a screenshot of the 1000th frame main vs PR gives:  ``` Mean: 0.001222 Weighted median: 0.750432 1st weighted quartile: 0.453494 3rd weighted quartile: 0.969758 Min: 0.000000 Max: 0.990296 Evaluation time: 0.4255 seconds ``` So they seem to produce the same results. I also double-checked the number of draws. `main` does 160000 draws, and the PR does 160, as expected. ### 2D Mesh `bevymark --benchmark --waves 160 --per-wave 1000 --mode mesh2d --material-texture-count 10` <img width="1392" alt="Screenshot 2023-09-04 at 00 09 22" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/4358da2e-ce32-4134-82df-3ab74c40849c"> This generates 10 textures and generates materials for each of those and then selects one material per wave. The median frame time is reduced by 50%. Similar to the plain run above, this produces 160 draws on the PR and 160000 on `main` and the 1000th frame is identical (ignoring the fps counter text overlay).  ``` Mean: 0.002877 Weighted median: 0.964980 1st weighted quartile: 0.668871 3rd weighted quartile: 0.982749 Min: 0.000000 Max: 0.992377 Evaluation time: 0.4301 seconds ``` ### 2D Mesh `bevymark --benchmark --waves 160 --per-wave 1000 --mode mesh2d --vary-per-instance` <img width="1396" alt="Screenshot 2023-09-04 at 00 13 53" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/b2198b18-3439-47ad-919a-cdabe190facb"> This creates unique materials per instance by randomly-generating the material's colour. This is the worst case for 2D batching. Somehow, this PR manages a 7% reduction in median frame time. Both main and this PR issue 160000 draws. The 1000th frame is the same:  ``` Mean: 0.001214 Weighted median: 0.937499 1st weighted quartile: 0.635467 3rd weighted quartile: 0.979085 Min: 0.000000 Max: 0.988971 Evaluation time: 0.4462 seconds ``` ### 2D Sprite `bevymark --benchmark --waves 160 --per-wave 1000 --mode sprite` <img width="1396" alt="Screenshot 2023-09-04 at 12 21 12" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/8b31e915-d6be-4cac-abf5-c6a4da9c3d43"> This just spawns 160 waves of 1000 sprites. There should be and is no notable difference between main and the PR. ### 2D Sprite `bevymark --benchmark --waves 160 --per-wave 1000 --mode sprite --material-texture-count 10` <img width="1389" alt="Screenshot 2023-09-04 at 12 36 08" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/45fe8d6d-c901-4062-a349-3693dd044413"> This spawns the sprites selecting a texture at random per instance from the 10 generated textures. This has no significant change vs main and shouldn't. ### 2D Sprite `bevymark --benchmark --waves 160 --per-wave 1000 --mode sprite --vary-per-instance` <img width="1401" alt="Screenshot 2023-09-04 at 12 29 52" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/762c5c60-352e-471f-8dbe-bbf10e24ebd6"> This sets the sprite colour as being unique per instance. This can still all be drawn using one batch. There should be no difference but the PR produces median frame times that are 4% higher. Investigation showed no clear sources of cost, rather a mix of give and take that should not happen. It seems like noise in the results. ### Summary | Benchmark | % change in median frame time | | ------------- | ------------- | | many_cubes | 🟩 -30% | | many_cubes 10 materials | 🟩 -5% | | many_cubes unique materials | 🟩 ~0% | | bevymark mesh2d | 🟩 -50% | | bevymark mesh2d 10 materials | 🟩 -50% | | bevymark mesh2d unique materials | 🟩 -7% | | bevymark sprite | 🟥 2% | | bevymark sprite 10 materials | 🟥 0.6% | | bevymark sprite unique materials | 🟥 4.1% | --- ## Changelog - Added: 2D and 3D mesh entities that share the same mesh and material (same textures, same data) are now batched into the same draw command for better performance. --------- Co-authored-by: robtfm <50659922+robtfm@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Nicola Papale <nico@nicopap.ch> |

Bevy Asset V2 (#8624)
# Bevy Asset V2 Proposal ## Why Does Bevy Need A New Asset System? Asset pipelines are a central part of the gamedev process. Bevy's current asset system is missing a number of features that make it non-viable for many classes of gamedev. After plenty of discussions and [a long community feedback period](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/3972), we've identified a number missing features: * **Asset Preprocessing**: it should be possible to "preprocess" / "compile" / "crunch" assets at "development time" rather than when the game starts up. This enables offloading expensive work from deployed apps, faster asset loading, less runtime memory usage, etc. * **Per-Asset Loader Settings**: Individual assets cannot define their own loaders that override the defaults. Additionally, they cannot provide per-asset settings to their loaders. This is a huge limitation, as many asset types don't provide all information necessary for Bevy _inside_ the asset. For example, a raw PNG image says nothing about how it should be sampled (ex: linear vs nearest). * **Asset `.meta` files**: assets should have configuration files stored adjacent to the asset in question, which allows the user to configure asset-type-specific settings. These settings should be accessible during the pre-processing phase. Modifying a `.meta` file should trigger a re-processing / re-load of the asset. It should be possible to configure asset loaders from the meta file. * **Processed Asset Hot Reloading**: Changes to processed assets (or their dependencies) should result in re-processing them and re-loading the results in live Bevy Apps. * **Asset Dependency Tracking**: The current bevy_asset has no good way to wait for asset dependencies to load. It punts this as an exercise for consumers of the loader apis, which is unreasonable and error prone. There should be easy, ergonomic ways to wait for assets to load and block some logic on an asset's entire dependency tree loading. * **Runtime Asset Loading**: it should be (optionally) possible to load arbitrary assets dynamically at runtime. This necessitates being able to deploy and run the asset server alongside Bevy Apps on _all platforms_. For example, we should be able to invoke the shader compiler at runtime, stream scenes from sources like the internet, etc. To keep deployed binaries (and startup times) small, the runtime asset server configuration should be configurable with different settings compared to the "pre processor asset server". * **Multiple Backends**: It should be possible to load assets from arbitrary sources (filesystems, the internet, remote asset serves, etc). * **Asset Packing**: It should be possible to deploy assets in compressed "packs", which makes it easier and more efficient to distribute assets with Bevy Apps. * **Asset Handoff**: It should be possible to hold a "live" asset handle, which correlates to runtime data, without actually holding the asset in memory. Ex: it must be possible to hold a reference to a GPU mesh generated from a "mesh asset" without keeping the mesh data in CPU memory * **Per-Platform Processed Assets**: Different platforms and app distributions have different capabilities and requirements. Some platforms need lower asset resolutions or different asset formats to operate within the hardware constraints of the platform. It should be possible to define per-platform asset processing profiles. And it should be possible to deploy only the assets required for a given platform. These features have architectural implications that are significant enough to require a full rewrite. The current Bevy Asset implementation got us this far, but it can take us no farther. This PR defines a brand new asset system that implements most of these features, while laying the foundations for the remaining features to be built. ## Bevy Asset V2 Here is a quick overview of the features introduced in this PR. * **Asset Preprocessing**: Preprocess assets at development time into more efficient (and configurable) representations * **Dependency Aware**: Dependencies required to process an asset are tracked. If an asset's processed dependency changes, it will be reprocessed * **Hot Reprocessing/Reloading**: detect changes to asset source files, reprocess them if they have changed, and then hot-reload them in Bevy Apps. * **Only Process Changes**: Assets are only re-processed when their source file (or meta file) has changed. This uses hashing and timestamps to avoid processing assets that haven't changed. * **Transactional and Reliable**: Uses write-ahead logging (a technique commonly used by databases) to recover from crashes / forced-exits. Whenever possible it avoids full-reprocessing / only uncompleted transactions will be reprocessed. When the processor is running in parallel with a Bevy App, processor asset writes block Bevy App asset reads. Reading metadata + asset bytes is guaranteed to be transactional / correctly paired. * **Portable / Run anywhere / Database-free**: The processor does not rely on an in-memory database (although it uses some database techniques for reliability). This is important because pretty much all in-memory databases have unsupported platforms or build complications. * **Configure Processor Defaults Per File Type**: You can say "use this processor for all files of this type". * **Custom Processors**: The `Processor` trait is flexible and unopinionated. It can be implemented by downstream plugins. * **LoadAndSave Processors**: Most asset processing scenarios can be expressed as "run AssetLoader A, save the results using AssetSaver X, and then load the result using AssetLoader B". For example, load this png image using `PngImageLoader`, which produces an `Image` asset and then save it using `CompressedImageSaver` (which also produces an `Image` asset, but in a compressed format), which takes an `Image` asset as input. This means if you have an `AssetLoader` for an asset, you are already half way there! It also means that you can share AssetSavers across multiple loaders. Because `CompressedImageSaver` accepts Bevy's generic Image asset as input, it means you can also use it with some future `JpegImageLoader`. * **Loader and Saver Settings**: Asset Loaders and Savers can now define their own settings types, which are passed in as input when an asset is loaded / saved. Each asset can define its own settings. * **Asset `.meta` files**: configure asset loaders, their settings, enable/disable processing, and configure processor settings * **Runtime Asset Dependency Tracking** Runtime asset dependencies (ex: if an asset contains a `Handle<Image>`) are tracked by the asset server. An event is emitted when an asset and all of its dependencies have been loaded * **Unprocessed Asset Loading**: Assets do not require preprocessing. They can be loaded directly. A processed asset is just a "normal" asset with some extra metadata. Asset Loaders don't need to know or care about whether or not an asset was processed. * **Async Asset IO**: Asset readers/writers use async non-blocking interfaces. Note that because Rust doesn't yet support async traits, there is a bit of manual Boxing / Future boilerplate. This will hopefully be removed in the near future when Rust gets async traits. * **Pluggable Asset Readers and Writers**: Arbitrary asset source readers/writers are supported, both by the processor and the asset server. * **Better Asset Handles** * **Single Arc Tree**: Asset Handles now use a single arc tree that represents the lifetime of the asset. This makes their implementation simpler, more efficient, and allows us to cheaply attach metadata to handles. Ex: the AssetPath of a handle is now directly accessible on the handle itself! * **Const Typed Handles**: typed handles can be constructed in a const context. No more weird "const untyped converted to typed at runtime" patterns! * **Handles and Ids are Smaller / Faster To Hash / Compare**: Typed `Handle<T>` is now much smaller in memory and `AssetId<T>` is even smaller. * **Weak Handle Usage Reduction**: In general Handles are now considered to be "strong". Bevy features that previously used "weak `Handle<T>`" have been ported to `AssetId<T>`, which makes it statically clear that the features do not hold strong handles (while retaining strong type information). Currently Handle::Weak still exists, but it is very possible that we can remove that entirely. * **Efficient / Dense Asset Ids**: Assets now have efficient dense runtime asset ids, which means we can avoid expensive hash lookups. Assets are stored in Vecs instead of HashMaps. There are now typed and untyped ids, which means we no longer need to store dynamic type information in the ID for typed handles. "AssetPathId" (which was a nightmare from a performance and correctness standpoint) has been entirely removed in favor of dense ids (which are retrieved for a path on load) * **Direct Asset Loading, with Dependency Tracking**: Assets that are defined at runtime can still have their dependencies tracked by the Asset Server (ex: if you create a material at runtime, you can still wait for its textures to load). This is accomplished via the (currently optional) "asset dependency visitor" trait. This system can also be used to define a set of assets to load, then wait for those assets to load. * **Async folder loading**: Folder loading also uses this system and immediately returns a handle to the LoadedFolder asset, which means folder loading no longer blocks on directory traversals. * **Improved Loader Interface**: Loaders now have a specific "top level asset type", which makes returning the top-level asset simpler and statically typed. * **Basic Image Settings and Processing**: Image assets can now be processed into the gpu-friendly Basic Universal format. The ImageLoader now has a setting to define what format the image should be loaded as. Note that this is just a minimal MVP ... plenty of additional work to do here. To demo this, enable the `basis-universal` feature and turn on asset processing. * **Simpler Audio Play / AudioSink API**: Asset handle providers are cloneable, which means the Audio resource can mint its own handles. This means you can now do `let sink_handle = audio.play(music)` instead of `let sink_handle = audio_sinks.get_handle(audio.play(music))`. Note that this might still be replaced by https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8424. **Removed Handle Casting From Engine Features**: Ex: FontAtlases no longer use casting between handle types ## Using The New Asset System ### Normal Unprocessed Asset Loading By default the `AssetPlugin` does not use processing. It behaves pretty much the same way as the old system. If you are defining a custom asset, first derive `Asset`: ```rust #[derive(Asset)] struct Thing { value: String, } ``` Initialize the asset: ```rust app.init_asset:<Thing>() ``` Implement a new `AssetLoader` for it: ```rust #[derive(Default)] struct ThingLoader; #[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Default)] pub struct ThingSettings { some_setting: bool, } impl AssetLoader for ThingLoader { type Asset = Thing; type Settings = ThingSettings; fn load<'a>( &'a self, reader: &'a mut Reader, settings: &'a ThingSettings, load_context: &'a mut LoadContext, ) -> BoxedFuture<'a, Result<Thing, anyhow::Error>> { Box::pin(async move { let mut bytes = Vec::new(); reader.read_to_end(&mut bytes).await?; // convert bytes to value somehow Ok(Thing { value }) }) } fn extensions(&self) -> &[&str] { &["thing"] } } ``` Note that this interface will get much cleaner once Rust gets support for async traits. `Reader` is an async futures_io::AsyncRead. You can stream bytes as they come in or read them all into a `Vec<u8>`, depending on the context. You can use `let handle = load_context.load(path)` to kick off a dependency load, retrieve a handle, and register the dependency for the asset. Then just register the loader in your Bevy app: ```rust app.init_asset_loader::<ThingLoader>() ``` Now just add your `Thing` asset files into the `assets` folder and load them like this: ```rust fn system(asset_server: Res<AssetServer>) { let handle = Handle<Thing> = asset_server.load("cool.thing"); } ``` You can check load states directly via the asset server: ```rust if asset_server.load_state(&handle) == LoadState::Loaded { } ``` You can also listen for events: ```rust fn system(mut events: EventReader<AssetEvent<Thing>>, handle: Res<SomeThingHandle>) { for event in events.iter() { if event.is_loaded_with_dependencies(&handle) { } } } ``` Note the new `AssetEvent::LoadedWithDependencies`, which only fires when the asset is loaded _and_ all dependencies (and their dependencies) have loaded. Unlike the old asset system, for a given asset path all `Handle<T>` values point to the same underlying Arc. This means Handles can cheaply hold more asset information, such as the AssetPath: ```rust // prints the AssetPath of the handle info!("{:?}", handle.path()) ``` ### Processed Assets Asset processing can be enabled via the `AssetPlugin`. When developing Bevy Apps with processed assets, do this: ```rust app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed_dev())) ``` This runs the `AssetProcessor` in the background with hot-reloading. It reads assets from the `assets` folder, processes them, and writes them to the `.imported_assets` folder. Asset loads in the Bevy App will wait for a processed version of the asset to become available. If an asset in the `assets` folder changes, it will be reprocessed and hot-reloaded in the Bevy App. When deploying processed Bevy apps, do this: ```rust app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed())) ``` This does not run the `AssetProcessor` in the background. It behaves like `AssetPlugin::unprocessed()`, but reads assets from `.imported_assets`. When the `AssetProcessor` is running, it will populate sibling `.meta` files for assets in the `assets` folder. Meta files for assets that do not have a processor configured look like this: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), ), ) ``` This is metadata for an image asset. For example, if you have `assets/my_sprite.png`, this could be the metadata stored at `assets/my_sprite.png.meta`. Meta files are totally optional. If no metadata exists, the default settings will be used. In short, this file says "load this asset with the ImageLoader and use the file extension to determine the image type". This type of meta file is supported in all AssetPlugin modes. If in `Unprocessed` mode, the asset (with the meta settings) will be loaded directly. If in `ProcessedDev` mode, the asset file will be copied directly to the `.imported_assets` folder. The meta will also be copied directly to the `.imported_assets` folder, but with one addition: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", processed_info: Some(( hash: 12415480888597742505, full_hash: 14344495437905856884, process_dependencies: [], )), asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), ), ) ``` `processed_info` contains `hash` (a direct hash of the asset and meta bytes), `full_hash` (a hash of `hash` and the hashes of all `process_dependencies`), and `process_dependencies` (the `path` and `full_hash` of every process_dependency). A "process dependency" is an asset dependency that is _directly_ used when processing the asset. Images do not have process dependencies, so this is empty. When the processor is enabled, you can use the `Process` metadata config: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Process( processor: "bevy_asset::processor::process::LoadAndSave<bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader, bevy_render::texture::compressed_image_saver::CompressedImageSaver>", settings: ( loader_settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), saver_settings: ( generate_mipmaps: true, ), ), ), ) ``` This configures the asset to use the `LoadAndSave` processor, which runs an AssetLoader and feeds the result into an AssetSaver (which saves the given Asset and defines a loader to load it with). (for terseness LoadAndSave will likely get a shorter/friendlier type name when [Stable Type Paths](#7184) lands). `LoadAndSave` is likely to be the most common processor type, but arbitrary processors are supported. `CompressedImageSaver` saves an `Image` in the Basis Universal format and configures the ImageLoader to load it as basis universal. The `AssetProcessor` will read this meta, run it through the LoadAndSave processor, and write the basis-universal version of the image to `.imported_assets`. The final metadata will look like this: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", processed_info: Some(( hash: 905599590923828066, full_hash: 9948823010183819117, process_dependencies: [], )), asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: Format(Basis), ), ), ) ``` To try basis-universal processing out in Bevy examples, (for example `sprite.rs`), change `add_plugins(DefaultPlugins)` to `add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed_dev()))` and run with the `basis-universal` feature enabled: `cargo run --features=basis-universal --example sprite`. To create a custom processor, there are two main paths: 1. Use the `LoadAndSave` processor with an existing `AssetLoader`. Implement the `AssetSaver` trait, register the processor using `asset_processor.register_processor::<LoadAndSave<ImageLoader, CompressedImageSaver>>(image_saver.into())`. 2. Implement the `Process` trait directly and register it using: `asset_processor.register_processor(thing_processor)`. You can configure default processors for file extensions like this: ```rust asset_processor.set_default_processor::<ThingProcessor>("thing") ``` There is one more metadata type to be aware of: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Ignore, ) ``` This will ignore the asset during processing / prevent it from being written to `.imported_assets`. The AssetProcessor stores a transaction log at `.imported_assets/log` and uses it to gracefully recover from unexpected stops. This means you can force-quit the processor (and Bevy Apps running the processor in parallel) at arbitrary times! `.imported_assets` is "local state". It should _not_ be checked into source control. It should also be considered "read only". In practice, you _can_ modify processed assets and processed metadata if you really need to test something. But those modifications will not be represented in the hashes of the assets, so the processed state will be "out of sync" with the source assets. The processor _will not_ fix this for you. Either revert the change after you have tested it, or delete the processed files so they can be re-populated. ## Open Questions There are a number of open questions to be discussed. We should decide if they need to be addressed in this PR and if so, how we will address them: ### Implied Dependencies vs Dependency Enumeration There are currently two ways to populate asset dependencies: * **Implied via AssetLoaders**: if an AssetLoader loads an asset (and retrieves a handle), a dependency is added to the list. * **Explicit via the optional Asset::visit_dependencies**: if `server.load_asset(my_asset)` is called, it will call `my_asset.visit_dependencies`, which will grab dependencies that have been manually defined for the asset via the Asset trait impl (which can be derived). This means that defining explicit dependencies is optional for "loaded assets". And the list of dependencies is always accurate because loaders can only produce Handles if they register dependencies. If an asset was loaded with an AssetLoader, it only uses the implied dependencies. If an asset was created at runtime and added with `asset_server.load_asset(MyAsset)`, it will use `Asset::visit_dependencies`. However this can create a behavior mismatch between loaded assets and equivalent "created at runtime" assets if `Assets::visit_dependencies` doesn't exactly match the dependencies produced by the AssetLoader. This behavior mismatch can be resolved by completely removing "implied loader dependencies" and requiring `Asset::visit_dependencies` to supply dependency data. But this creates two problems: * It makes defining loaded assets harder and more error prone: Devs must remember to manually annotate asset dependencies with `#[dependency]` when deriving `Asset`. For more complicated assets (such as scenes), the derive likely wouldn't be sufficient and a manual `visit_dependencies` impl would be required. * Removes the ability to immediately kick off dependency loads: When AssetLoaders retrieve a Handle, they also immediately kick off an asset load for the handle, which means it can start loading in parallel _before_ the asset finishes loading. For large assets, this could be significant. (although this could be mitigated for processed assets if we store dependencies in the processed meta file and load them ahead of time) ### Eager ProcessorDev Asset Loading I made a controversial call in the interest of fast startup times ("time to first pixel") for the "processor dev mode configuration". When initializing the AssetProcessor, current processed versions of unchanged assets are yielded immediately, even if their dependencies haven't been checked yet for reprocessing. This means that non-current-state-of-filesystem-but-previously-valid assets might be returned to the App first, then hot-reloaded if/when their dependencies change and the asset is reprocessed. Is this behavior desirable? There is largely one alternative: do not yield an asset from the processor to the app until all of its dependencies have been checked for changes. In some common cases (load dependency has not changed since last run) this will increase startup time. The main question is "by how much" and is that slower startup time worth it in the interest of only yielding assets that are true to the current state of the filesystem. Should this be configurable? I'm starting to think we should only yield an asset after its (historical) dependencies have been checked for changes + processed as necessary, but I'm curious what you all think. ### Paths Are Currently The Only Canonical ID / Do We Want Asset UUIDs? In this implementation AssetPaths are the only canonical asset identifier (just like the previous Bevy Asset system and Godot). Moving assets will result in re-scans (and currently reprocessing, although reprocessing can easily be avoided with some changes). Asset renames/moves will break code and assets that rely on specific paths, unless those paths are fixed up. Do we want / need "stable asset uuids"? Introducing them is very possible: 1. Generate a UUID and include it in .meta files 2. Support UUID in AssetPath 3. Generate "asset indices" which are loaded on startup and map UUIDs to paths. 4 (maybe). Consider only supporting UUIDs for processed assets so we can generate quick-to-load indices instead of scanning meta files. The main "pro" is that assets referencing UUIDs don't need to be migrated when a path changes. The main "con" is that UUIDs cannot be "lazily resolved" like paths. They need a full view of all assets to answer the question "does this UUID exist". Which means UUIDs require the AssetProcessor to fully finish startup scans before saying an asset doesnt exist. And they essentially require asset pre-processing to use in apps, because scanning all asset metadata files at runtime to resolve a UUID is not viable for medium-to-large apps. It really requires a pre-generated UUID index, which must be loaded before querying for assets. I personally think this should be investigated in a separate PR. Paths aren't going anywhere ... _everyone_ uses filesystems (and filesystem-like apis) to manage their asset source files. I consider them permanent canonical asset information. Additionally, they behave well for both processed and unprocessed asset modes. Given that Bevy is supporting both, this feels like the right canonical ID to start with. UUIDS (and maybe even other indexed-identifier types) can be added later as necessary. ### Folder / File Naming Conventions All asset processing config currently lives in the `.imported_assets` folder. The processor transaction log is in `.imported_assets/log`. Processed assets are added to `.imported_assets/Default`, which will make migrating to processed asset profiles (ex: a `.imported_assets/Mobile` profile) a non-breaking change. It also allows us to create top-level files like `.imported_assets/log` without it being interpreted as an asset. Meta files currently have a `.meta` suffix. Do we like these names and conventions? ### Should the `AssetPlugin::processed_dev` configuration enable `watch_for_changes` automatically? Currently it does (which I think makes sense), but it does make it the only configuration that enables watch_for_changes by default. ### Discuss on_loaded High Level Interface: This PR includes a very rough "proof of concept" `on_loaded` system adapter that uses the `LoadedWithDependencies` event in combination with `asset_server.load_asset` dependency tracking to support this pattern ```rust fn main() { App::new() .init_asset::<MyAssets>() .add_systems(Update, on_loaded(create_array_texture)) .run(); } #[derive(Asset, Clone)] struct MyAssets { #[dependency] picture_of_my_cat: Handle<Image>, #[dependency] picture_of_my_other_cat: Handle<Image>, } impl FromWorld for ArrayTexture { fn from_world(world: &mut World) -> Self { picture_of_my_cat: server.load("meow.png"), picture_of_my_other_cat: server.load("meeeeeeeow.png"), } } fn spawn_cat(In(my_assets): In<MyAssets>, mut commands: Commands) { commands.spawn(SpriteBundle { texture: my_assets.picture_of_my_cat.clone(), ..default() }); commands.spawn(SpriteBundle { texture: my_assets.picture_of_my_other_cat.clone(), ..default() }); } ``` The implementation is _very_ rough. And it is currently unsafe because `bevy_ecs` doesn't expose some internals to do this safely from inside `bevy_asset`. There are plenty of unanswered questions like: * "do we add a Loadable" derive? (effectively automate the FromWorld implementation above) * Should `MyAssets` even be an Asset? (largely implemented this way because it elegantly builds on `server.load_asset(MyAsset { .. })` dependency tracking). We should think hard about what our ideal API looks like (and if this is a pattern we want to support). Not necessarily something we need to solve in this PR. The current `on_loaded` impl should probably be removed from this PR before merging. ## Clarifying Questions ### What about Assets as Entities? This Bevy Asset V2 proposal implementation initially stored Assets as ECS Entities. Instead of `AssetId<T>` + the `Assets<T>` resource it used `Entity` as the asset id and Asset values were just ECS components. There are plenty of compelling reasons to do this: 1. Easier to inline assets in Bevy Scenes (as they are "just" normal entities + components) 2. More flexible queries: use the power of the ECS to filter assets (ex: `Query<Mesh, With<Tree>>`). 3. Extensible. Users can add arbitrary component data to assets. 4. Things like "component visualization tools" work out of the box to visualize asset data. However Assets as Entities has a ton of caveats right now: * We need to be able to allocate entity ids without a direct World reference (aka rework id allocator in Entities ... i worked around this in my prototypes by just pre allocating big chunks of entities) * We want asset change events in addition to ECS change tracking ... how do we populate them when mutations can come from anywhere? Do we use Changed queries? This would require iterating over the change data for all assets every frame. Is this acceptable or should we implement a new "event based" component change detection option? * Reconciling manually created assets with asset-system managed assets has some nuance (ex: are they "loaded" / do they also have that component metadata?) * "how do we handle "static" / default entity handles" (ties in to the Entity Indices discussion: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/8319). This is necessary for things like "built in" assets and default handles in things like SpriteBundle. * Storing asset information as a component makes it easy to "invalidate" asset state by removing the component (or forcing modifications). Ideally we have ways to lock this down (some combination of Rust type privacy and ECS validation) In practice, how we store and identify assets is a reasonably superficial change (porting off of Assets as Entities and implementing dedicated storage + ids took less than a day). So once we sort out the remaining challenges the flip should be straightforward. Additionally, I do still have "Assets as Entities" in my commit history, so we can reuse that work. I personally think "assets as entities" is a good endgame, but it also doesn't provide _significant_ value at the moment and it certainly isn't ready yet with the current state of things. ### Why not Distill? [Distill](https://github.com/amethyst/distill) is a high quality fully featured asset system built in Rust. It is very natural to ask "why not just use Distill?". It is also worth calling out that for awhile, [we planned on adopting Distill / I signed off on it](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/708). However I think Bevy has a number of constraints that make Distill adoption suboptimal: * **Architectural Simplicity:** * Distill's processor requires an in-memory database (lmdb) and RPC networked API (using Cap'n Proto). Each of these introduces API complexity that increases maintenance burden and "code grokability". Ignoring tests, documentation, and examples, Distill has 24,237 lines of Rust code (including generated code for RPC + database interactions). If you ignore generated code, it has 11,499 lines. * Bevy builds the AssetProcessor and AssetServer using pluggable AssetReader/AssetWriter Rust traits with simple io interfaces. They do not necessitate databases or RPC interfaces (although Readers/Writers could use them if that is desired). Bevy Asset V2 (at the time of writing this PR) is 5,384 lines of Rust code (ignoring tests, documentation, and examples). Grain of salt: Distill does have more features currently (ex: Asset Packing, GUIDS, remote-out-of-process asset processor). I do plan to implement these features in Bevy Asset V2 and I personally highly doubt they will meaningfully close the 6115 lines-of-code gap. * This complexity gap (which while illustrated by lines of code, is much bigger than just that) is noteworthy to me. Bevy should be hackable and there are pillars of Distill that are very hard to understand and extend. This is a matter of opinion (and Bevy Asset V2 also has complicated areas), but I think Bevy Asset V2 is much more approachable for the average developer. * Necessary disclaimer: counting lines of code is an extremely rough complexity metric. Read the code and form your own opinions. * **Optional Asset Processing:** Not all Bevy Apps (or Bevy App developers) need / want asset preprocessing. Processing increases the complexity of the development environment by introducing things like meta files, imported asset storage, running processors in the background, waiting for processing to finish, etc. Distill _requires_ preprocessing to work. With Bevy Asset V2 processing is fully opt-in. The AssetServer isn't directly aware of asset processors at all. AssetLoaders only care about converting bytes to runtime Assets ... they don't know or care if the bytes were pre-processed or not. Processing is "elegantly" (forgive my self-congratulatory phrasing) layered on top and builds on the existing Asset system primitives. * **Direct Filesystem Access to Processed Asset State:** Distill stores processed assets in a database. This makes debugging / inspecting the processed outputs harder (either requires special tooling to query the database or they need to be "deployed" to be inspected). Bevy Asset V2, on the other hand, stores processed assets in the filesystem (by default ... this is configurable). This makes interacting with the processed state more natural. Note that both Godot and Unity's new asset system store processed assets in the filesystem. * **Portability**: Because Distill's processor uses lmdb and RPC networking, it cannot be run on certain platforms (ex: lmdb is a non-rust dependency that cannot run on the web, some platforms don't support running network servers). Bevy should be able to process assets everywhere (ex: run the Bevy Editor on the web, compile + process shaders on mobile, etc). Distill does partially mitigate this problem by supporting "streaming" assets via the RPC protocol, but this is not a full solve from my perspective. And Bevy Asset V2 can (in theory) also stream assets (without requiring RPC, although this isn't implemented yet) Note that I _do_ still think Distill would be a solid asset system for Bevy. But I think the approach in this PR is a better solve for Bevy's specific "asset system requirements". ### Doesn't async-fs just shim requests to "sync" `std::fs`? What is the point? "True async file io" has limited / spotty platform support. async-fs (and the rust async ecosystem generally ... ex Tokio) currently use async wrappers over std::fs that offload blocking requests to separate threads. This may feel unsatisfying, but it _does_ still provide value because it prevents our task pools from blocking on file system operations (which would prevent progress when there are many tasks to do, but all threads in a pool are currently blocking on file system ops). Additionally, using async APIs for our AssetReaders and AssetWriters also provides value because we can later add support for "true async file io" for platforms that support it. _And_ we can implement other "true async io" asset backends (such as networked asset io). ## Draft TODO - [x] Fill in missing filesystem event APIs: file removed event (which is expressed as dangling RenameFrom events in some cases), file/folder renamed event - [x] Assets without loaders are not moved to the processed folder. This breaks things like referenced `.bin` files for GLTFs. This should be configurable per-non-asset-type. - [x] Initial implementation of Reflect and FromReflect for Handle. The "deserialization" parity bar is low here as this only worked with static UUIDs in the old impl ... this is a non-trivial problem. Either we add a Handle::AssetPath variant that gets "upgraded" to a strong handle on scene load or we use a separate AssetRef type for Bevy scenes (which is converted to a runtime Handle on load). This deserves its own discussion in a different pr. - [x] Populate read_asset_bytes hash when run by the processor (a bit of a special case .. when run by the processor the processed meta will contain the hash so we don't need to compute it on the spot, but we don't want/need to read the meta when run by the main AssetServer) - [x] Delay hot reloading: currently filesystem events are handled immediately, which creates timing issues in some cases. For example hot reloading images can sometimes break because the image isn't finished writing. We should add a delay, likely similar to the [implementation in this PR](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8503). - [x] Port old platform-specific AssetIo implementations to the new AssetReader interface (currently missing Android and web) - [x] Resolve on_loaded unsafety (either by removing the API entirely or removing the unsafe) - [x] Runtime loader setting overrides - [x] Remove remaining unwraps that should be error-handled. There are number of TODOs here - [x] Pretty AssetPath Display impl - [x] Document more APIs - [x] Resolve spurious "reloading because it has changed" events (to repro run load_gltf with `processed_dev()`) - [x] load_dependency hot reloading currently only works for processed assets. If processing is disabled, load_dependency changes are not hot reloaded. - [x] Replace AssetInfo dependency load/fail counters with `loading_dependencies: HashSet<UntypedAssetId>` to prevent reloads from (potentially) breaking counters. Storing this will also enable "dependency reloaded" events (see [Next Steps](#next-steps)) - [x] Re-add filesystem watcher cargo feature gate (currently it is not optional) - [ ] Migration Guide - [ ] Changelog ## Followup TODO - [ ] Replace "eager unchanged processed asset loading" behavior with "don't returned unchanged processed asset until dependencies have been checked". - [ ] Add true `Ignore` AssetAction that does not copy the asset to the imported_assets folder. - [ ] Finish "live asset unloading" (ex: free up CPU asset memory after uploading an image to the GPU), rethink RenderAssets, and port renderer features. The `Assets` collection uses `Option<T>` for asset storage to support its removal. (1) the Option might not actually be necessary ... might be able to just remove from the collection entirely (2) need to finalize removal apis - [ ] Try replacing the "channel based" asset id recycling with something a bit more efficient (ex: we might be able to use raw atomic ints with some cleverness) - [ ] Consider adding UUIDs to processed assets (scoped just to helping identify moved assets ... not exposed to load queries ... see [Next Steps](#next-steps)) - [ ] Store "last modified" source asset and meta timestamps in processed meta files to enable skipping expensive hashing when the file wasn't changed - [ ] Fix "slow loop" handle drop fix - [ ] Migrate to TypeName - [x] Handle "loader preregistration". See #9429 ## Next Steps * **Configurable per-type defaults for AssetMeta**: It should be possible to add configuration like "all png image meta should default to using nearest sampling" (currently this hard-coded per-loader/processor Settings::default() impls). Also see the "Folder Meta" bullet point. * **Avoid Reprocessing on Asset Renames / Moves**: See the "canonical asset ids" discussion in [Open Questions](#open-questions) and the relevant bullet point in [Draft TODO](#draft-todo). Even without canonical ids, folder renames could avoid reprocessing in some cases. * **Multiple Asset Sources**: Expand AssetPath to support "asset source names" and support multiple AssetReaders in the asset server (ex: `webserver://some_path/image.png` backed by an Http webserver AssetReader). The "default" asset reader would use normal `some_path/image.png` paths. Ideally this works in combination with multiple AssetWatchers for hot-reloading * **Stable Type Names**: this pr removes the TypeUuid requirement from assets in favor of `std::any::type_name`. This makes defining assets easier (no need to generate a new uuid / use weird proc macro syntax). It also makes reading meta files easier (because things have "friendly names"). We also use type names for components in scene files. If they are good enough for components, they are good enough for assets. And consistency across Bevy pillars is desirable. However, `std::any::type_name` is not guaranteed to be stable (although in practice it is). We've developed a [stable type path](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/7184) to resolve this, which should be adopted when it is ready. * **Command Line Interface**: It should be possible to run the asset processor in a separate process from the command line. This will also require building a network-server-backed AssetReader to communicate between the app and the processor. We've been planning to build a "bevy cli" for awhile. This seems like a good excuse to build it. * **Asset Packing**: This is largely an additive feature, so it made sense to me to punt this until we've laid the foundations in this PR. * **Per-Platform Processed Assets**: It should be possible to generate assets for multiple platforms by supporting multiple "processor profiles" per asset (ex: compress with format X on PC and Y on iOS). I think there should probably be arbitrary "profiles" (which can be separate from actual platforms), which are then assigned to a given platform when generating the final asset distribution for that platform. Ex: maybe devs want a "Mobile" profile that is shared between iOS and Android. Or a "LowEnd" profile shared between web and mobile. * **Versioning and Migrations**: Assets, Loaders, Savers, and Processors need to have versions to determine if their schema is valid. If an asset / loader version is incompatible with the current version expected at runtime, the processor should be able to migrate them. I think we should try using Bevy Reflect for this, as it would allow us to load the old version as a dynamic Reflect type without actually having the old Rust type. It would also allow us to define "patches" to migrate between versions (Bevy Reflect devs are currently working on patching). The `.meta` file already has its own format version. Migrating that to new versions should also be possible. * **Real Copy-on-write AssetPaths**: Rust's actual Cow (clone-on-write type) currently used by AssetPath can still result in String clones that aren't actually necessary (cloning an Owned Cow clones the contents). Bevy's asset system requires cloning AssetPaths in a number of places, which result in actual clones of the internal Strings. This is not efficient. AssetPath internals should be reworked to exhibit truer cow-like-behavior that reduces String clones to the absolute minimum. * **Consider processor-less processing**: In theory the AssetServer could run processors "inline" even if the background AssetProcessor is disabled. If we decide this is actually desirable, we could add this. But I don't think its a priority in the short or medium term. * **Pre-emptive dependency loading**: We could encode dependencies in processed meta files, which could then be used by the Asset Server to kick of dependency loads as early as possible (prior to starting the actual asset load). Is this desirable? How much time would this save in practice? * **Optimize Processor With UntypedAssetIds**: The processor exclusively uses AssetPath to identify assets currently. It might be possible to swap these out for UntypedAssetIds in some places, which are smaller / cheaper to hash and compare. * **One to Many Asset Processing**: An asset source file that produces many assets currently must be processed into a single "processed" asset source. If labeled assets can be written separately they can each have their own configured savers _and_ they could be loaded more granularly. Definitely worth exploring! * **Automatically Track "Runtime-only" Asset Dependencies**: Right now, tracking "created at runtime" asset dependencies requires adding them via `asset_server.load_asset(StandardMaterial::default())`. I think with some cleverness we could also do this for `materials.add(StandardMaterial::default())`, making tracking work "everywhere". There are challenges here relating to change detection / ensuring the server is made aware of dependency changes. This could be expensive in some cases. * **"Dependency Changed" events**: Some assets have runtime artifacts that need to be re-generated when one of their dependencies change (ex: regenerate a material's bind group when a Texture needs to change). We are generating the dependency graph so we can definitely produce these events. Buuuuut generating these events will have a cost / they could be high frequency for some assets, so we might want this to be opt-in for specific cases. * **Investigate Storing More Information In Handles**: Handles can now store arbitrary information, which makes it cheaper and easier to access. How much should we move into them? Canonical asset load states (via atomics)? (`handle.is_loaded()` would be very cool). Should we store the entire asset and remove the `Assets<T>` collection? (`Arc<RwLock<Option<Image>>>`?) * **Support processing and loading files without extensions**: This is a pretty arbitrary restriction and could be supported with very minimal changes. * **Folder Meta**: It would be nice if we could define per folder processor configuration defaults (likely in a `.meta` or `.folder_meta` file). Things like "default to linear filtering for all Images in this folder". * **Replace async_broadcast with event-listener?** This might be approximately drop-in for some uses and it feels more light weight * **Support Running the AssetProcessor on the Web**: Most of the hard work is done here, but there are some easy straggling TODOs (make the transaction log an interface instead of a direct file writer so we can write a web storage backend, implement an AssetReader/AssetWriter that reads/writes to something like LocalStorage). * **Consider identifying and preventing circular dependencies**: This is especially important for "processor dependencies", as processing will silently never finish in these cases. * **Built-in/Inlined Asset Hot Reloading**: This PR regresses "built-in/inlined" asset hot reloading (previously provided by the DebugAssetServer). I'm intentionally punting this because I think it can be cleanly implemented with "multiple asset sources" by registering a "debug asset source" (ex: `debug://bevy_pbr/src/render/pbr.wgsl` asset paths) in combination with an AssetWatcher for that asset source and support for "manually loading pats with asset bytes instead of AssetReaders". The old DebugAssetServer was quite nasty and I'd love to avoid that hackery going forward. * **Investigate ways to remove double-parsing meta files**: Parsing meta files currently involves parsing once with "minimal" versions of the meta file to extract the type name of the loader/processor config, then parsing again to parse the "full" meta. This is suboptimal. We should be able to define custom deserializers that (1) assume the loader/processor type name comes first (2) dynamically looks up the loader/processor registrations to deserialize settings in-line (similar to components in the bevy scene format). Another alternative: deserialize as dynamic Reflect objects and then convert. * **More runtime loading configuration**: Support using the Handle type as a hint to select an asset loader (instead of relying on AssetPath extensions) * **More high level Processor trait implementations**: For example, it might be worth adding support for arbitrary chains of "asset transforms" that modify an in-memory asset representation between loading and saving. (ex: load a Mesh, run a `subdivide_mesh` transform, followed by a `flip_normals` transform, then save the mesh to an efficient compressed format). * **Bevy Scene Handle Deserialization**: (see the relevant [Draft TODO item](#draft-todo) for context) * **Explore High Level Load Interfaces**: See [this discussion](#discuss-on_loaded-high-level-interface) for one prototype. * **Asset Streaming**: It would be great if we could stream Assets (ex: stream a long video file piece by piece) * **ID Exchanging**: In this PR Asset Handles/AssetIds are bigger than they need to be because they have a Uuid enum variant. If we implement an "id exchanging" system that trades Uuids for "efficient runtime ids", we can cut down on the size of AssetIds, making them more efficient. This has some open design questions, such as how to spawn entities with "default" handle values (as these wouldn't have access to the exchange api in the current system). * **Asset Path Fixup Tooling**: Assets that inline asset paths inside them will break when an asset moves. The asset system provides the functionality to detect when paths break. We should build a framework that enables formats to define "path migrations". This is especially important for scene files. For editor-generated files, we should also consider using UUIDs (see other bullet point) to avoid the need to migrate in these cases. --------- Co-authored-by: BeastLe9enD <beastle9end@outlook.de> Co-authored-by: Mike <mike.hsu@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Nicola Papale <nicopap@users.noreply.github.com> |

Split ComputedVisibility into two components to allow for accurate change detection and speed up visibility propagation (#9497)
# Objective Fix #8267. Fixes half of #7840. The `ComputedVisibility` component contains two flags: hierarchy visibility, and view visibility (whether its visible to any cameras). Due to the modular and open-ended way that view visibility is computed, it triggers change detection every single frame, even when the value does not change. Since hierarchy visibility is stored in the same component as view visibility, this means that change detection for inherited visibility is completely broken. At the company I work for, this has become a real issue. We are using change detection to only re-render scenes when necessary. The broken state of change detection for computed visibility means that we have to to rely on the non-inherited `Visibility` component for now. This is workable in the early stages of our project, but since we will inevitably want to use the hierarchy, we will have to either: 1. Roll our own solution for computed visibility. 2. Fix the issue for everyone. ## Solution Split the `ComputedVisibility` component into two: `InheritedVisibilty` and `ViewVisibility`. This allows change detection to behave properly for `InheritedVisibility`. View visiblity is still erratic, although it is less useful to be able to detect changes for this flavor of visibility. Overall, this actually simplifies the API. Since the visibility system consists of self-explaining components, it is much easier to document the behavior and usage. This approach is more modular and "ECS-like" -- one could strip out the `ViewVisibility` component entirely if it's not needed, and rely only on inherited visibility. --- ## Changelog - `ComputedVisibility` has been removed in favor of: `InheritedVisibility` and `ViewVisiblity`. ## Migration Guide The `ComputedVisibilty` component has been split into `InheritedVisiblity` and `ViewVisibility`. Replace any usages of `ComputedVisibility::is_visible_in_hierarchy` with `InheritedVisibility::get`, and replace `ComputedVisibility::is_visible_in_view` with `ViewVisibility::get`. ```rust // Before: commands.spawn(VisibilityBundle { visibility: Visibility::Inherited, computed_visibility: ComputedVisibility::default(), }); // After: commands.spawn(VisibilityBundle { visibility: Visibility::Inherited, inherited_visibility: InheritedVisibility::default(), view_visibility: ViewVisibility::default(), }); ``` ```rust // Before: fn my_system(q: Query<&ComputedVisibilty>) { for vis in &q { if vis.is_visible_in_hierarchy() { // After: fn my_system(q: Query<&InheritedVisibility>) { for inherited_visibility in &q { if inherited_visibility.get() { ``` ```rust // Before: fn my_system(q: Query<&ComputedVisibilty>) { for vis in &q { if vis.is_visible_in_view() { // After: fn my_system(q: Query<&ViewVisibility>) { for view_visibility in &q { if view_visibility.get() { ``` ```rust // Before: fn my_system(mut q: Query<&mut ComputedVisibilty>) { for vis in &mut q { vis.set_visible_in_view(); // After: fn my_system(mut q: Query<&mut ViewVisibility>) { for view_visibility in &mut q { view_visibility.set(); ``` --------- Co-authored-by: Robert Swain <robert.swain@gmail.com> |

remove VecSwizzles imports (#9629)
# Objective - Since #9387, there is no need to import VecSwizzles separately, it is already included in the prelude. ## Solution - Remove the imports. |

Reorder render sets, refactor bevy_sprite to take advantage (#9236)
This is a continuation of this PR: #8062 # Objective - Reorder render schedule sets to allow data preparation when phase item order is known to support improved batching - Part of the batching/instancing etc plan from here: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/89#issuecomment-1379249074 - The original idea came from @inodentry and proved to be a good one. Thanks! - Refactor `bevy_sprite` and `bevy_ui` to take advantage of the new ordering ## Solution - Move `Prepare` and `PrepareFlush` after `PhaseSortFlush` - Add a `PrepareAssets` set that runs in parallel with other systems and sets in the render schedule. - Put prepare_assets systems in the `PrepareAssets` set - If explicit dependencies are needed on Mesh or Material RenderAssets then depend on the appropriate system. - Add `ManageViews` and `ManageViewsFlush` sets between `ExtractCommands` and Queue - Move `queue_mesh*_bind_group` to the Prepare stage - Rename them to `prepare_` - Put systems that prepare resources (buffers, textures, etc.) into a `PrepareResources` set inside `Prepare` - Put the `prepare_..._bind_group` systems into a `PrepareBindGroup` set after `PrepareResources` - Move `prepare_lights` to the `ManageViews` set - `prepare_lights` creates views and this must happen before `Queue` - This system needs refactoring to stop handling all responsibilities - Gather lights, sort, and create shadow map views. Store sorted light entities in a resource - Remove `BatchedPhaseItem` - Replace `batch_range` with `batch_size` representing how many items to skip after rendering the item or to skip the item entirely if `batch_size` is 0. - `queue_sprites` has been split into `queue_sprites` for queueing phase items and `prepare_sprites` for batching after the `PhaseSort` - `PhaseItem`s are still inserted in `queue_sprites` - After sorting adjacent compatible sprite phase items are accumulated into `SpriteBatch` components on the first entity of each batch, containing a range of vertex indices. The associated `PhaseItem`'s `batch_size` is updated appropriately. - `SpriteBatch` items are then drawn skipping over the other items in the batch based on the value in `batch_size` - A very similar refactor was performed on `bevy_ui` --- ## Changelog Changed: - Reordered and reworked render app schedule sets. The main change is that data is extracted, queued, sorted, and then prepared when the order of data is known. - Refactor `bevy_sprite` and `bevy_ui` to take advantage of the reordering. ## Migration Guide - Assets such as materials and meshes should now be created in `PrepareAssets` e.g. `prepare_assets<Mesh>` - Queueing entities to `RenderPhase`s continues to be done in `Queue` e.g. `queue_sprites` - Preparing resources (textures, buffers, etc.) should now be done in `PrepareResources`, e.g. `prepare_prepass_textures`, `prepare_mesh_uniforms` - Prepare bind groups should now be done in `PrepareBindGroups` e.g. `prepare_mesh_bind_group` - Any batching or instancing can now be done in `Prepare` where the order of the phase items is known e.g. `prepare_sprites` ## Next Steps - Introduce some generic mechanism to ensure items that can be batched are grouped in the phase item order, currently you could easily have `[sprite at z 0, mesh at z 0, sprite at z 0]` preventing batching. - Investigate improved orderings for building the MeshUniform buffer - Implementing batching across the rest of bevy --------- Co-authored-by: Robert Swain <robert.swain@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: robtfm <50659922+robtfm@users.noreply.github.com> |

Fix CI for Rust 1.72 (#9562)
# Objective [Rust 1.72.0](https://blog.rust-lang.org/2023/08/24/Rust-1.72.0.html) is now stable. # Notes - `let-else` formatting has arrived! - I chose to allow `explicit_iter_loop` due to https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/11074. We didn't hit any of the false positives that prevent compilation, but fixing this did produce a lot of the "symbol soup" mentioned, e.g. `for image in &mut *image_events {`. Happy to undo this if there's consensus the other way. --------- Co-authored-by: François <mockersf@gmail.com> |

improve shader import model (#5703)
# Objective operate on naga IR directly to improve handling of shader modules. - give codespan reporting into imported modules - allow glsl to be used from wgsl and vice-versa the ultimate objective is to make it possible to - provide user hooks for core shader functions (to modify light behaviour within the standard pbr pipeline, for example) - make automatic binding slot allocation possible but ... since this is already big, adds some value and (i think) is at feature parity with the existing code, i wanted to push this now. ## Solution i made a crate called naga_oil (https://github.com/robtfm/naga_oil - unpublished for now, could be part of bevy) which manages modules by - building each module independantly to naga IR - creating "header" files for each supported language, which are used to build dependent modules/shaders - make final shaders by combining the shader IR with the IR for imported modules then integrated this into bevy, replacing some of the existing shader processing stuff. also reworked examples to reflect this. ## Migration Guide shaders that don't use `#import` directives should work without changes. the most notable user-facing difference is that imported functions/variables/etc need to be qualified at point of use, and there's no "leakage" of visible stuff into your shader scope from the imports of your imports, so if you used things imported by your imports, you now need to import them directly and qualify them. the current strategy of including/'spreading' `mesh_vertex_output` directly into a struct doesn't work any more, so these need to be modified as per the examples (e.g. color_material.wgsl, or many others). mesh data is assumed to be in bindgroup 2 by default, if mesh data is bound into bindgroup 1 instead then the shader def `MESH_BINDGROUP_1` needs to be added to the pipeline shader_defs. |
