# Objective
- Fixes#16469.
## Solution
- Make the picking backend features not enabled by default in each
sub-crate.
- Make features in `bevy_internal` to set the backend features
- Make the root `bevy` crate set the features by default.
## Testing
- The mesh and sprite picking examples still work correctly.
# Objective
Closes#15545.
`bevy_picking` supports UI and sprite picking, but not mesh picking.
Being able to pick meshes would be extremely useful for various games,
tools, and our own examples, as well as scene editors and inspectors.
So, we need a mesh picking backend!
Luckily,
[`bevy_mod_picking`](https://github.com/aevyrie/bevy_mod_picking) (which
`bevy_picking` is based on) by @aevyrie already has a [backend for
it](74f0c3c0fb/backends/bevy_picking_raycast/src/lib.rs)
using [`bevy_mod_raycast`](https://github.com/aevyrie/bevy_mod_raycast).
As a side product of adding mesh picking, we also get support for
performing ray casts on meshes!
## Solution
Upstream a large chunk of the immediate-mode ray casting functionality
from `bevy_mod_raycast`, and add a mesh picking backend based on
`bevy_mod_picking`. Huge thanks to @aevyrie who did all the hard work on
these incredible crates!
All meshes are pickable by default. Picking can be disabled for
individual entities by adding `PickingBehavior::IGNORE`, like normal.
Or, if you want mesh picking to be entirely opt-in, you can set
`MeshPickingBackendSettings::require_markers` to `true` and add a
`RayCastPickable` component to the desired camera and target entities.
You can also use the new `MeshRayCast` system parameter to cast rays
into the world manually:
```rust
fn ray_cast_system(mut ray_cast: MeshRayCast, foo_query: Query<(), With<Foo>>) {
let ray = Ray3d::new(Vec3::ZERO, Dir3::X);
// Only ray cast against entities with the `Foo` component.
let filter = |entity| foo_query.contains(entity);
// Never early-exit. Note that you can change behavior per-entity.
let early_exit_test = |_entity| false;
// Ignore the visibility of entities. This allows ray casting hidden entities.
let visibility = RayCastVisibility::Any;
let settings = RayCastSettings::default()
.with_filter(&filter)
.with_early_exit_test(&early_exit_test)
.with_visibility(visibility);
// Cast the ray with the settings, returning a list of intersections.
let hits = ray_cast.cast_ray(ray, &settings);
}
```
This is largely a direct port, but I did make several changes to match
our APIs better, remove things we don't need or that I think are
unnecessary, and do some general improvements to code quality and
documentation.
### Changes Relative to `bevy_mod_raycast` and `bevy_mod_picking`
- Every `Raycast` and "raycast" has been renamed to `RayCast` and "ray
cast" (similar reasoning as the "Naming" section in #15724)
- `Raycast` system param has been renamed to `MeshRayCast` to avoid
naming conflicts and to be explicit that it is not for colliders
- `RaycastBackend` has been renamed to `MeshPickingBackend`
- `RayCastVisibility` variants are now `Any`, `Visible`, and
`VisibleInView` instead of `Ignore`, `MustBeVisible`, and
`MustBeVisibleAndInView`
- `NoBackfaceCulling` has been renamed to `RayCastBackfaces`, to avoid
implying that it affects the rendering of backfaces for meshes (it
doesn't)
- `SimplifiedMesh` and `RayCastBackfaces` live near other ray casting
API types, not in their own 10 LoC module
- All intersection logic and types are in the same `intersections`
module, not split across several modules
- Some intersection types have been renamed to be clearer and more
consistent
- `IntersectionData` -> `RayMeshHit`
- `RayHit` -> `RayTriangleHit`
- General documentation and code quality improvements
### Removed / Not Ported
- Removed unused ray helpers and types, like `PrimitiveIntersection`
- Removed getters on intersection types, and made their properties
public
- There is no `2d` feature, and `Raycast::mesh_query` and
`Raycast::mesh2d_query` have been merged into `MeshRayCast::mesh_query`,
which handles both 2D and 3D
- I assume this existed previously because `Mesh2dHandle` used to be in
`bevy_sprite`. Now both the 2D and 3D mesh are in `bevy_render`.
- There is no `debug` feature or ray debug rendering
- There is no deferred API (`RaycastSource`)
- There is no `CursorRayPlugin` (the picking backend handles this)
### Note for Reviewers
In case it's helpful, the [first
commit](281638ef10)
here is essentially a one-to-one port. The rest of the commits are
primarily refactoring and cleaning things up in the ways listed earlier,
as well as changes to the module structure.
It may also be useful to compare the original [picking
backend](74f0c3c0fb/backends/bevy_picking_raycast/src/lib.rs)
and [`bevy_mod_raycast`](https://github.com/aevyrie/bevy_mod_raycast) to
this PR. Feel free to mention if there are any changes that I should
revert or something I should not include in this PR.
## Testing
I tested mesh picking and relevant components in some examples, for both
2D and 3D meshes, and added a new `mesh_picking` example. I also
~~stole~~ ported over the [ray-mesh intersection
benchmark](dbc5ef32fe/benches/ray_mesh_intersection.rs)
from `bevy_mod_raycast`.

## Showcase
Below is a version of the `2d_shapes` example modified to demonstrate 2D
mesh picking. This is not included in this PR.

And below is the new `mesh_picking` example:
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/b65c7a5a-fa3a-4c2d-8bbd-e7a2c772986e
There is also a really cool new `mesh_ray_cast` example ported over from
`bevy_mod_raycast`:

# Objective
Correctly order picking events. Resolves
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/5984.
## Solution
Event ordering [very long standing
problem](https://github.com/aevyrie/bevy_mod_picking/issues/294) with
mod picking, stemming from two related issues. The first problem was
that `Pointer<T>` events of different types couldn't be ordered, but we
have already gotten around that in the upstream by switching to
observers. Since observers run in the order they are triggered, this
isn't an issue.
The second problem was that the underlying event streams that picking
uses to create it's pointer interaction events *also* lacked ordering,
and the systems that generated the points couldn't interleave events.
This PR fixes that by unifying the event streams and integrating the
various interaction systems.
The concrete changes are as follows:
+ `bevy_winit::WinitEvent` has been moved to `bevy_window::WindowEvent`.
This provides a unified (and more importantly, *ordered*) input stream
for both `bevy_window` and `bevy_input` events.
+ Replaces `InputMove` and `InputPress` with `PointerInput`, a new
unified input event which drives picking and interaction. This event is
built to have drop-in forward compatibility with [winit's upcoming
pointer abstraction](https://github.com/rust-windowing/winit/pull/3876).
I have added code to emulate it using the current winit input
abstractions, but this entire thing will be much more robust when it
lands.
+ Rolls `pointer_events` `send_click_and_drag_events` and
`send_drag_over_events` into a single system, which operates directly on
`PointerEvent` and triggers observers as output.
The PR also improves docs and takes the opportunity to
refactor/streamline the pointer event dispatch logic.
## Status & Testing
This PR is now feature complete and documented. While it is
theoretically possible to add unit tests for the ordering, building the
picking mocking for that will take a little while.
Feedback on the chosen ordering of events is within-scope.
## Migration Guide
For users switching from `bevy_mod_picking` to `bevy_picking`:
+ Instead of adding an `On<T>` component, use `.observe(|trigger:
Trigger<T>|)`. You may now apply multiple handlers to the same entity
using this command.
+ Pointer interaction events now have semi-deterministic ordering which
(more or less) aligns with the order of the raw input stream. Consult
the docs on `bevy_picking::event::pointer_events` for current
information. You may need to adjust your event handling logic
accordingly.
+ `PointerCancel` has been replaced with `Pointer<Cancled>`, which now
has the semantics of an OS touch pointer cancel event.
+ `InputMove` and `InputPress` have been merged into `PointerInput`. The
use remains exactly the same.
+ Picking interaction events are now only accessible through observers,
and no `EventReader`. This functionality may be re-implemented later.
For users of `bevy_winit`:
+ The event `bevy_winit::WinitEvent` has moved to
`bevy_window::WindowEvent`. If this was the only thing you depended on
`bevy_winit` for, you should switch your dependency to `bevy_window`.
+ `bevy_window` now depends on `bevy_input`. The dependencies of
`bevy_input` are a subset of the existing dependencies for `bevy_window`
so this should be non-breaking.
Makes the newly merged picking usable for UI elements.
currently it both triggers the events, as well as sends them as throught
commands.trigger_targets. We should probably figure out if this is
needed for them all.
# Objective
Hooks up obserers and picking for a very simple example
## Solution
upstreamed the UI picking backend from bevy_mod_picking
## Testing
tested with the new example picking/simple_picking.rs

Ci fixed version of: #14541
Upstream the remainder of bevy_picking_core and all of
bevy_picking_input.
This work is intentionally nonfunctional and has minimal changes, but
does compile. More work is necessary to replace bevy_eventlistener with
propagating observers.
This work is being coordinated as part of "bevy_mod_picking upstream"
working group. Come say hi on discord!

# Objective
This is the first of a series of PRs intended to begin the upstreaming
process for `bevy_mod_picking`. The purpose of this PR is to:
+ Create the new `bevy_picking` crate
+ Upstream `CorePlugin` as `PickingPlugin`
+ Upstream the core pointer and backend abstractions.
This code has been ported verbatim from the corresponding files in
[bevy_picking_core](https://github.com/aevyrie/bevy_mod_picking/tree/main/crates/bevy_picking_core/src)
with a few tiny naming and docs tweaks.
The work here is only an initial foothold to get the up-streaming
process started in earnest. We can do refactoring and improvements once
this is in-tree.
