# Objective
Fixes#5101
Alternative to #6511
## Solution
Corrected the behavior for ignored fields in `FromReflect`, which was
previously using the incorrect field indexes.
Similarly, fields marked with `#[reflect(skip_serializing)]` no longer
break when using `FromReflect` after deserialization. This was done by
modifying `SerializationData` to store a function pointer that can later
be used to generate a default instance of the skipped field during
deserialization.
The function pointer points to a function generated by the derive macro
using the behavior designated by `#[reflect(default)]` (or just
`Default` if none provided). The entire output of the macro is now
wrapped in an [unnamed
constant](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/reference/items/constant-items.html#unnamed-constant)
which keeps this behavior hygienic.
#### Rationale
The biggest downside to this approach is that it requires fields marked
`#[reflect(skip_serializing)]` to provide the ability to create a
default instance— either via a `Default` impl or by specifying a custom
one. While this isn't great, I think it might be justified by the fact
that we really need to create this value when using `FromReflect` on a
deserialized object. And we need to do this _during_ deserialization
because after that (at least for tuples and tuple structs) we lose
information about which field is which: _"is the value at index 1 in
this `DynamicTupleStruct` the actual value for index 1 or is it really
the value for index 2 since index 1 is skippable...?"_
#### Alternatives
An alternative would be to store `Option<Box<dyn Reflect>>` within
`DynamicTuple` and `DynamicTupleStruct` instead of just `Box<dyn
Reflect>`. This would allow us to insert "empty"/"missing" fields during
deserialization, thus saving the positional information of the skipped
fields. However, this may require changing the API of `Tuple` and
`TupleStruct` such that they can account for their dynamic counterparts
returning `None` for a skipped field. In practice this would probably
mean exposing the `Option`-ness of the dynamics onto implementors via
methods like `Tuple::drain` or `TupleStruct::field`.
Personally, I think requiring `Default` would be better than muddying up
the API to account for these special cases. But I'm open to trying out
this other approach if the community feels that it's better.

## Changelog
### Public Changes
#### Fixed
- The behaviors of `#[reflect(ignore)]` and
`#[reflect(skip_serializing)]` are no longer dependent on field order
#### Changed
- Fields marked with `#[reflect(skip_serializing)]` now need to either
implement `Default` or specify a custom default function using
`#[reflect(default = "path::to::some_func")]`
- Deserializing a type with fields marked `#[reflect(skip_serializing)]`
will now include that field initialized to its specified default value
- `SerializationData::new` now takes the new `SkippedField` struct along
with the skipped field index
- Renamed `SerializationData::is_ignored_field` to
`SerializationData::is_field_skipped`
#### Added
- Added `SkippedField` struct
- Added methods `SerializationData::generate_default` and
`SerializationData::iter_skipped`
### Internal Changes
#### Changed
- Replaced `members_to_serialization_denylist` and `BitSet<u32>` with
`SerializationDataDef`
- The `Reflect` derive is more hygienic as it now outputs within an
[unnamed
constant](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/reference/items/constant-items.html#unnamed-constant)
- `StructField::index` has been split up into
`StructField::declaration_index` and `StructField::reflection_index`
#### Removed
- Removed `bitset` dependency
## Migration Guide
* Fields marked `#[reflect(skip_serializing)]` now must implement
`Default` or specify a custom default function with `#[reflect(default =
"path::to::some_func")]`
```rust
#[derive(Reflect)]
struct MyStruct {
#[reflect(skip_serializing)]
#[reflect(default = "get_foo_default")]
foo: Foo, // <- `Foo` does not impl `Default` so requires a custom
function
#[reflect(skip_serializing)]
bar: Bar, // <- `Bar` impls `Default`
}
#[derive(Reflect)]
struct Foo(i32);
#[derive(Reflect, Default)]
struct Bar(i32);
fn get_foo_default() -> Foo {
Foo(123)
}
```
* `SerializationData::new` has been changed to expect an iterator of
`(usize, SkippedField)` rather than one of just `usize`
```rust
// BEFORE
SerializationData::new([0, 3].into_iter());
// AFTER
SerializationData::new([
(0, SkippedField::new(field_0_default_fn)),
(3, SkippedField::new(field_3_default_fn)),
].into_iter());
```
* `Serialization::is_ignored_field` has been renamed to
`Serialization::is_field_skipped`
* Fields marked `#[reflect(skip_serializing)]` are now included in
deserialization output. This may affect logic that expected those fields
to be absent.
# Objective
To get the width or height of an image you do:
```rust
self.texture_descriptor.size.{width, height}
```
that is quite verbose.
This PR adds some convenient methods for Image to reduce verbosity.
## Changelog
* Add a `width()` method for getting the width of an image.
* Add a `height()` method for getting the height of an image.
* Rename the `size()` method to `size_f32()`.
* Add a `size()` method for getting the size of an image as u32.
* Renamed the `aspect_2d()` method to `aspect_ratio()`.
## Migration Guide
Replace calls to the `Image::size()` method with `size_f32()`.
Replace calls to the `Image::aspect_2d()` method with `aspect_ratio()`.
# Objective
- Fix#10165
- On iOS simulator on apple silicon Macs, shader validation is going
through the host, but device limits are reported for the device. They
sometimes differ, and cause the validation to crash on something that
should work
```
-[MTLDebugRenderCommandEncoder validateCommonDrawErrors:]:5775: failed assertion `Draw Errors Validation

```
## Solution
- Add a custom flag when building for the simulator and override the
buffer alignment
# Objective
- Closes#10049.
- Detect DDS texture containing a cubemap or a cubemap array.
## Solution
- When loading a dds texture, the header capabilities are checked for
the cubemap flag. An error is returned if not all faces are provided.
---
## Changelog
### Added
- Added a new texture error `TextureError::IncompleteCubemap`, used for
dds cubemap textures containing less than 6 faces, as that is not
supported on modern graphics APIs.
### Fixed
- DDS cubemaps are now loaded as cubemaps instead of 2D textures.
## Migration Guide
If you are matching on a `TextureError`, you will need to add a new
branch to handle `TextureError::IncompleteCubemap`.
# Objective
While reviewing #10187 I noticed some other mistakes in the UI node
docs.
## Solution
I did a quick proofreading pass and fixed a few things. And of course,
the typo from that other PR.
## Notes
I occasionally insert a period to make a section of doc self-consistent
but didn't go one way or the other on all periods in the file.

# Objective
Simplify bind group creation code. alternative to (and based on) #9476
## Solution
- Add a `BindGroupEntries` struct that can transparently be used where
`&[BindGroupEntry<'b>]` is required in BindGroupDescriptors.
Allows constructing the descriptor's entries as:
```rust
render_device.create_bind_group(
"my_bind_group",
&my_layout,
&BindGroupEntries::with_indexes((
(2, &my_sampler),
(3, my_uniform),
)),
);
```
instead of
```rust
render_device.create_bind_group(
"my_bind_group",
&my_layout,
&[
BindGroupEntry {
binding: 2,
resource: BindingResource::Sampler(&my_sampler),
},
BindGroupEntry {
binding: 3,
resource: my_uniform,
},
],
);
```
or
```rust
render_device.create_bind_group(
"my_bind_group",
&my_layout,
&BindGroupEntries::sequential((&my_sampler, my_uniform)),
);
```
instead of
```rust
render_device.create_bind_group(
"my_bind_group",
&my_layout,
&[
BindGroupEntry {
binding: 0,
resource: BindingResource::Sampler(&my_sampler),
},
BindGroupEntry {
binding: 1,
resource: my_uniform,
},
],
);
```
the structs has no user facing macros, is tuple-type-based so stack
allocated, and has no noticeable impact on compile time.
- Also adds a `DynamicBindGroupEntries` struct with a similar api that
uses a `Vec` under the hood and allows extending the entries.
- Modifies `RenderDevice::create_bind_group` to take separate arguments
`label`, `layout` and `entries` instead of a `BindGroupDescriptor`
struct. The struct can't be stored due to the internal references, and
with only 3 members arguably does not add enough context to justify
itself.
- Modify the codebase to use the new api and the `BindGroupEntries` /
`DynamicBindGroupEntries` structs where appropriate (whenever the
entries slice contains more than 1 member).
## Migration Guide
- Calls to `RenderDevice::create_bind_group({BindGroupDescriptor {
label, layout, entries })` must be amended to
`RenderDevice::create_bind_group(label, layout, entries)`.
- If `label`s have been specified as `"bind_group_name".into()`, they
need to change to just `"bind_group_name"`. `Some("bind_group_name")`
and `None` will still work, but `Some("bind_group_name")` can optionally
be simplified to just `"bind_group_name"`.

# 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.
# Objective
This PR aims to make it so that we don't accidentally go over
`MAX_TEXTURE_IMAGE_UNITS` (in WebGL) or
`maxSampledTexturesPerShaderStage` (in WebGPU), giving us some extra
leeway to add more view bind group textures.
(This PR is extracted from—and unblocks—#8015)
## Solution
- We replace the existing `view_layout` and `view_layout_multisampled`
pair with an array of 32 bind group layouts, generated ahead of time;
- For now, these layouts cover all the possible combinations of:
`multisampled`, `depth_prepass`, `normal_prepass`,
`motion_vector_prepass` and `deferred_prepass`:
- In the future, as @JMS55 pointed out, we can likely take out
`motion_vector_prepass` and `deferred_prepass`, as these are not really
needed for the mesh pipeline and can use separate pipelines. This would
bring the possible combinations down to 8;
- We can also add more "optional" textures as they become needed,
allowing the engine to scale to a wider variety of use cases in lower
end/web environments (e.g. some apps might just want normal and depth
prepasses, others might only want light probes), while still keeping a
high ceiling for high end native environments where more textures are
supported.
- While preallocating bind group layouts is relatively cheap, the number
of combinations grows exponentially, so we should likely limit ourselves
to something like at most 256–1024 total layouts until we find a better
solution (like generating them lazily)
- To make this mechanism a little bit more explicit/discoverable, so
that compatibility with WebGPU/WebGL is not broken by accident, we add a
`MESH_PIPELINE_VIEW_LAYOUT_SAFE_MAX_TEXTURES` const and warn whenever
the number of textures in the layout crosses it.
- The warning is gated by `#[cfg(debug_assertions)]` and not issued in
release builds;
- We're counting the actual textures in the bind group layout instead of
using some roundabout metric so it should be accurate;
- Right now `MESH_PIPELINE_VIEW_LAYOUT_SAFE_MAX_TEXTURES` is set to 10
in order to leave 6 textures free for other groups;
- Currently there's no combination that would cause us to go over the
limit, but that will change once #8015 lands.
---
## Changelog
- `MeshPipeline` view bind group layouts now vary based on the current
multisampling and prepass states, saving a couple of texture binding
entries when prepasses are not in use.
## Migration Guide
- `MeshPipeline::view_layout` and
`MeshPipeline::view_layout_multisampled` have been replaced with a
private array to accomodate for variable view bind group layouts. To
obtain a view bind group layout for the current pipeline state, use the
new `MeshPipeline::get_view_layout()` or
`MeshPipeline::get_view_layout_from_key()` methods.
# Objective
Users shouldn't need to change their source code between "development
workflows" and "releasing". Currently, Bevy Asset V2 has two "processed"
asset modes `Processed` (assumes assets are already processed) and
`ProcessedDev` (starts an asset processor and processes assets). This
means that the mode must be changed _in code_ when switching from "app
dev" to "release". Very suboptimal.
We have already removed "runtime opt-in" for hot-reloading. Enabling the
`file_watcher` feature _automatically_ enables file watching in code.
This means deploying a game (without hot reloading enabled) just means
calling `cargo build --release` instead of `cargo run --features
bevy/file_watcher`.
We should adopt this pattern for asset processing.
## Solution
This adds the `asset_processor` feature, which will start the
`AssetProcessor` when an `AssetPlugin` runs in `AssetMode::Processed`.
The "asset processing workflow" is now:
1. Enable `AssetMode::Processed` on `AssetPlugin`
2. When developing, run with the `asset_processor` and `file_watcher`
features
3. When releasing, build without these features.
The `AssetMode::ProcessedDev` mode has been removed.
# Objective
I encountered a problem where I had a plugin `FooPlugin` which did
```rust
impl Plugin for FooPlugin {
fn build(&self, app: &mut App) {
app
.register_asset_source(...); // more stuff after
}
}
```
And when I tried using it, e.g.
```rust
asset_server.load("foo://data/asset.custom");
```
I got an error that `foo` was not recognized as a source.
I found that this is because asset sources must be registered _before_
`AssetPlugin` is added, and I had `FooPlugin` _after_.
## Solution
Add clarifying note about having to register sources before
`AssetPlugin` is added.

- Log an error when registering an AssetSource after the AssetPlugin has
been built (via DefaultPlugins). This will let users know that their

## Solution
Added a new run condition and tweaked the docs for `on_timer`.
## Changelog
### Added
- `on_real_time_timer` run condition
# Objective
This PR addresses the issue where Bevy displays one or several black
frames before the scene is first rendered. This is particularly
noticeable on iOS, where the black frames disrupt the transition from
the launch screen to the game UI. I have written about my search to
solve this issue on the Bevy discord:
https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/1151047604520632352
While I can attest this PR works on both iOS and Linux/Wayland (and even
seems to resolve a slight flicker during startup with the latter as
well), I'm not familiar enough with Bevy to judge the full implications
of these changes. I hope a reviewer or tester can help me confirm
whether this is the right approach, or what might be a cleaner solution
to resolve this issue.
## Solution
I have moved the "startup phase" as well as the plugin finalization into
the `app.run()` function so those things finish synchronously before the
"main schedule" starts. I even move one frame forward as well, using
`app.update()`, to make sure the rendering has caught up with the state
of the finalized plugins as well.
I admit that part of this was achieved through trial-and-error, since
not doing the "startup phase" *before* `app.finish()` resulted in
panics, while not calling an extra `app.update()` didn't fully resolve
the issue.
What I *can* say, is that the iOS launch screen animation works in such
a way that the OS initiates the transition once the framework's
[`didFinishLaunching()`](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uiapplicationdelegate/1622921-application)
returns, meaning app developers **must** finish setting up their UI
before that function returns. This is what basically led me on the path
to try to "finish stuff earlier" :)
## Changelog
### Changed
- The startup phase and the first frame are rendered synchronously when
calling `app.run()`, before the "main schedule" is started. This fixes
black frames during the iOS launch transition and possible flickering on
other platforms, but may affect initialization order in your
application.
## Migration Guide
Because of this change, the timing of the first few frames might have
changed, and I think it could be that some things one may expect to be
initialized in a system may no longer be. To be honest, I feel out of my
depth to judge the exact impact here.
# Objective
Add a way to easily compute the up-to-date `GlobalTransform` of an

`GlobalTransform` if successful.

# Objective
allow extending `Material`s (including the built in `StandardMaterial`)
with custom vertex/fragment shaders and additional data, to easily get
pbr lighting with custom modifications, or otherwise extend a base
material.
# Solution
- added `ExtendedMaterial<B: Material, E: MaterialExtension>` which
contains a base material and a user-defined extension.
- added example `extended_material` showing how to use it
- modified AsBindGroup to have "unprepared" functions that return raw
resources / layout entries so that the extended material can combine
them
note: doesn't currently work with array resources, as i can't figure out
how to make the OwnedBindingResource::get_binding() work, as wgpu
requires a `&'a[&'a TextureView]` and i have a `Vec<TextureView>`.
# Migration Guide
manual implementations of `AsBindGroup` will need to be adjusted, the
changes are pretty straightforward and can be seen in the diff for e.g.
the `texture_binding_array` example.

# Objective

## Solution
- Correct the description of an error type for the scene loader
# Objective
- This PR aims to make the various `*_PREPASS` shader defs we have
(`NORMAL_PREPASS`, `DEPTH_PREPASS`, `MOTION_VECTORS_PREPASS` AND
`DEFERRED_PREPASS`) easier to use and understand:
- So that their meaning is now consistent across all contexts; (“prepass
X is enabled for the current view”)
- So that they're also consistently set across all contexts.
- It also aims to enable us to (with a follow up PR) to conditionally
gate the `BindGroupEntry` and `BindGroupLayoutEntry` items associated
with these prepasses, saving us up to 4 texture slots in WebGL
(currently globally limited to 16 per shader, regardless of bind groups)
## Solution
- We now consistently set these from `PrepassPipeline`, the
`MeshPipeline` and the `DeferredLightingPipeline`, we also set their
`MeshPipelineKey`s;
- We introduce `PREPASS_PIPELINE`, `MESH_PIPELINE` and
`DEFERRED_LIGHTING_PIPELINE` that can be used to detect where the code
is running, without overloading the meanings of the prepass shader defs;
- We also gate the WGSL functions in `bevy_pbr::prepass_utils` with
`#ifdef`s for their respective shader defs, so that shader code can
provide a fallback whenever they're not available.
- This allows us to conditionally include the bindings for these prepass
textures (My next PR, which will hopefully unblock #8015)
- @robtfm mentioned [these were being used to prevent accessing the same
binding as read/write in the
prepass](https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/743663924229963868/1163270458393759814),
however even after reversing the `#ifndef`s I had no issues running the
code, so perhaps the compiler is already smart enough even without tree
shaking to know they're not being used, thanks to `#ifdef
PREPASS_PIPELINE`?

## Changelog
- Cleaned up WGSL `*_PREPASS` shader defs so they're now consistently
used everywhere;
- Introduced `PREPASS_PIPELINE`, `MESH_PIPELINE` and
`DEFERRED_LIGHTING_PIPELINE` WGSL shader defs for conditionally
compiling logic based the current pipeline;
- WGSL functions from `bevy_pbr::prepass_utils` are now guarded with
`#ifdef` based on the currently enabled prepasses;
## Migration Guide
- When using functions from `bevy_pbr::prepass_utils`
(`prepass_depth()`, `prepass_normal()`, `prepass_motion_vector()`) in
contexts where these prepasses might be disabled, you should now wrap
your calls with the appropriate `#ifdef` guards, (`#ifdef
DEPTH_PREPASS`, `#ifdef NORMAL_PREPASS`, `#ifdef MOTION_VECTOR_PREPASS`)
providing fallback logic where applicable.

# Objective
Fixes#10086
## Solution
Instead of serializing via `DynamicTypePath::reflect_type_path`, now
uses the `TypePath` found on the `TypeInfo` returned by
`Reflect::get_represented_type_info`.
This issue was happening because the dynamic types implement `TypePath`
themselves and do not (and cannot) forward their proxy's `TypePath`
data. The solution was to access the proxy's type information in order
to get the correct `TypePath` data.
## Changed
- The `Debug` impl for `TypePathTable` now includes output for all
fields.
# Objective
Time clamping happens consistently for apps that load non-trivial
things. While this _is_ an indicator that we should probably try to move
this work to a thread that doesn't block the Update, this is common
enough (and unactionable enough) that I think we should demote it for
now.

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.

# Objective
Calling `asset_server.load("scene.gltf#SomeLabel")` will silently fail
if `SomeLabel` does not exist.
Referenced in #9714
## Solution
We now detect this case and return an error. I also slightly refactored
`load_internal` to make the logic / dataflow much clearer.

# Objective
As called out in #9714, Bevy Asset V2 fails to hot-reload labeled assets
whose source asset has changed (in cases where the root asset is not
alive).
## Solution
Track alive labeled assets for a given source asset and allow hot
reloads in cases where a labeled asset is still alive.
# Objective
- Since #9885, running on an iOS device crashes trying to create the
processed folder
- This only happens on real device, not on the simulator
## Solution
- Setup processed assets only if needed
# Objective
On nightly there is a warning on a missing lifetime:
```bash
warning: `&` without an explicit lifetime name cannot be used here
```
The details are in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/115010, but
the bottom line is that in associated constants elided lifetimes are no
longer allowed to be implicitly defined.
This fixes the only place where it is missing.
## Solution
- Add explicit `'static` lifetime
# Objective
Currently, the asset loader outputs
```
2023-10-14T15:11:09.328850Z WARN bevy_asset::asset_server: no `AssetLoader` found
```
when user forgets to add an extension to a file. This is very confusing
behaviour, it sounds like there aren't any asset loaders existing.
## Solution
Add an extra message on the end when there are no file extensions.
# Objective
#10105 changed the ssao input color from the material base color to
white. i can't actually see a difference in the example but there should
be one in some cases.
## Solution
change it back.
# Objective
From my understanding, although resources are not meant to be created
and removed at every frame, they are still meant to be created
dynamically during the lifetime of the App.
But because the extract_resource API does not allow optional resources
from the main world, it's impossible to use resources in the render
phase that were not created before the render sub-app itself.
## Solution
Because the ECS engine already allows for system parameters to be
`Option<Res>`, it just had to be added.
---
## Changelog
- Changed
- `extract_resource` now takes an optional main world resource
- Fixed
- `ExtractResourcePlugin` doesn't cause panics anymore if the resource
is not already inserted
This adds support for **Multiple Asset Sources**. You can now register a
named `AssetSource`, which you can load assets from like you normally
would:
```rust
let shader: Handle<Shader> = asset_server.load("custom_source://path/to/shader.wgsl");
```
Notice that `AssetPath` now supports `some_source://` syntax. This can
now be accessed through the `asset_path.source()` accessor.
Asset source names _are not required_. If one is not specified, the
default asset source will be used:
```rust
let shader: Handle<Shader> = asset_server.load("path/to/shader.wgsl");
```
The behavior of the default asset source has not changed. Ex: the
`assets` folder is still the default.
As referenced in #9714
## Why?
**Multiple Asset Sources** enables a number of often-asked-for
scenarios:
* **Loading some assets from other locations on disk**: you could create
a `config` asset source that reads from the OS-default config folder
(not implemented in this PR)
* **Loading some assets from a remote server**: you could register a new
`remote` asset source that reads some assets from a remote http server
(not implemented in this PR)
* **Improved "Binary Embedded" Assets**: we can use this system for
"embedded-in-binary assets", which allows us to replace the old
`load_internal_asset!` approach, which couldn't support asset
processing, didn't support hot-reloading _well_, and didn't make
embedded assets accessible to the `AssetServer` (implemented in this pr)
## Adding New Asset Sources
An `AssetSource` is "just" a collection of `AssetReader`, `AssetWriter`,
and `AssetWatcher` entries. You can configure new asset sources like
this:
```rust
app.register_asset_source(
"other",
AssetSource::build()
.with_reader(|| Box::new(FileAssetReader::new("other")))
)
)
```
Note that `AssetSource` construction _must_ be repeatable, which is why
a closure is accepted.
`AssetSourceBuilder` supports `with_reader`, `with_writer`,
`with_watcher`, `with_processed_reader`, `with_processed_writer`, and
`with_processed_watcher`.
Note that the "asset source" system replaces the old "asset providers"
system.
## Processing Multiple Sources
The `AssetProcessor` now supports multiple asset sources! Processed
assets can refer to assets in other sources and everything "just works".
Each `AssetSource` defines an unprocessed and processed `AssetReader` /
`AssetWriter`.
Currently this is all or nothing for a given `AssetSource`. A given
source is either processed or it is not. Later we might want to add
support for "lazy asset processing", where an `AssetSource` (such as a
remote server) can be configured to only process assets that are
directly referenced by local assets (in order to save local disk space
and avoid doing extra work).
## A new `AssetSource`: `embedded`
One of the big features motivating **Multiple Asset Sources** was
improving our "embedded-in-binary" asset loading. To prove out the
**Multiple Asset Sources** implementation, I chose to build a new
`embedded` `AssetSource`, which replaces the old `load_interal_asset!`
system.
The old `load_internal_asset!` approach had a number of issues:
* The `AssetServer` was not aware of (or capable of loading) internal
assets.
* Because internal assets weren't visible to the `AssetServer`, they
could not be processed (or used by assets that are processed). This
would prevent things "preprocessing shaders that depend on built in Bevy
shaders", which is something we desperately need to start doing.
* Each "internal asset" needed a UUID to be defined in-code to reference
it. This was very manual and toilsome.
The new `embedded` `AssetSource` enables the following pattern:
```rust
// Called in `crates/bevy_pbr/src/render/mesh.rs`
embedded_asset!(app, "mesh.wgsl");
// later in the app
let shader: Handle<Shader> = asset_server.load("embedded://bevy_pbr/render/mesh.wgsl");
```
Notice that this always treats the crate name as the "root path", and it
trims out the `src` path for brevity. This is generally predictable, but
if you need to debug you can use the new `embedded_path!` macro to get a
`PathBuf` that matches the one used by `embedded_asset`.
You can also reference embedded assets in arbitrary assets, such as WGSL
shaders:
```rust
#import "embedded://bevy_pbr/render/mesh.wgsl"
```
This also makes `embedded` assets go through the "normal" asset
lifecycle. They are only loaded when they are actually used!
We are also discussing implicitly converting asset paths to/from shader
modules, so in the future (not in this PR) you might be able to load it
like this:
```rust
#import bevy_pbr::render::mesh::Vertex
```
Compare that to the old system!
```rust
pub const MESH_SHADER_HANDLE: Handle<Shader> = Handle::weak_from_u128(3252377289100772450);
load_internal_asset!(app, MESH_SHADER_HANDLE, "mesh.wgsl", Shader::from_wgsl);
// The mesh asset is the _only_ accessible via MESH_SHADER_HANDLE and _cannot_ be loaded via the AssetServer.
```
## Hot Reloading `embedded`
You can enable `embedded` hot reloading by enabling the
`embedded_watcher` cargo feature:
```
cargo run --features=embedded_watcher
```
## Improved Hot Reloading Workflow
First: the `filesystem_watcher` cargo feature has been renamed to
`file_watcher` for brevity (and to match the `FileAssetReader` naming
convention).
More importantly, hot asset reloading is no longer configured in-code by
default. If you enable any asset watcher feature (such as `file_watcher`
or `rust_source_watcher`), asset watching will be automatically enabled.
This removes the need to _also_ enable hot reloading in your app code.
That means you can replace this:
```rust
app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::default().watch_for_changes()))
```
with this:
```rust
app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins)
```
If you want to hot reload assets in your app during development, just
run your app like this:
```
cargo run --features=file_watcher
```
This means you can use the same code for development and deployment! To
deploy an app, just don't include the watcher feature
```
cargo build --release
```
My intent is to move to this approach for pretty much all dev workflows.
In a future PR I would like to replace `AssetMode::ProcessedDev` with a
`runtime-processor` cargo feature. We could then group all common "dev"
cargo features under a single `dev` feature:
```sh
# this would enable file_watcher, embedded_watcher, runtime-processor, and more
cargo run --features=dev
```
## AssetMode
`AssetPlugin::Unprocessed`, `AssetPlugin::Processed`, and
`AssetPlugin::ProcessedDev` have been replaced with an `AssetMode` field
on `AssetPlugin`.
```rust
// before
app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::Processed { /* fields here */ })
// after
app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin { mode: AssetMode::Processed, ..default() })
```
This aligns `AssetPlugin` with our other struct-like plugins. The old
"source" and "destination" `AssetProvider` fields in the enum variants
have been replaced by the "asset source" system. You no longer need to
configure the AssetPlugin to "point" to custom asset providers.
## AssetServerMode
To improve the implementation of **Multiple Asset Sources**,
`AssetServer` was made aware of whether or not it is using "processed"
or "unprocessed" assets. You can check that like this:
```rust
if asset_server.mode() == AssetServerMode::Processed {
/* do something */
}
```
Note that this refactor should also prepare the way for building "one to
many processed output files", as it makes the server aware of whether it
is loading from processed or unprocessed sources. Meaning we can store
and read processed and unprocessed assets differently!
## AssetPath can now refer to folders
The "file only" restriction has been removed from `AssetPath`. The
`AssetServer::load_folder` API now accepts an `AssetPath` instead of a
`Path`, meaning you can load folders from other asset sources!
## Improved AssetPath Parsing
AssetPath parsing was reworked to support sources, improve error
messages, and to enable parsing with a single pass over the string.
`AssetPath::new` was replaced by `AssetPath::parse` and
`AssetPath::try_parse`.
## AssetWatcher broken out from AssetReader
`AssetReader` is no longer responsible for constructing `AssetWatcher`.
This has been moved to `AssetSourceBuilder`.
## Duplicate Event Debouncing
Asset V2 already debounced duplicate filesystem events, but this was
_input_ events. Multiple input event types can produce the same _output_
`AssetSourceEvent`. Now that we have `embedded_watcher`, which does
expensive file io on events, it made sense to debounce output events
too, so I added that! This will also benefit the AssetProcessor by
preventing integrity checks for duplicate events (and helps keep the
noise down in trace logs).
## Next Steps
* **Port Built-in Shaders**: Currently the primary (and essentially
only) user of `load_interal_asset` in Bevy's source code is "built-in
shaders". I chose not to do that in this PR for a few reasons:
1. We need to add the ability to pass shader defs in to shaders via meta
files. Some shaders (such as MESH_VIEW_TYPES) need to pass shader def
values in that are defined in code.
2. We need to revisit the current shader module naming system. I think
we _probably_ want to imply modules from source structure (at least by
default). Ideally in a way that can losslessly convert asset paths
to/from shader modules (to enable the asset system to resolve modules
using the asset server).
3. I want to keep this change set minimal / get this merged first.
* **Deprecate `load_internal_asset`**: we can't do that until we do (1)
and (2)
* **Relative Asset Paths**: This PR significantly increases the need for
relative asset paths (which was already pretty high). Currently when
loading dependencies, it is assumed to be an absolute path, which means
if in an `AssetLoader` you call `context.load("some/path/image.png")` it
will assume that is the "default" asset source, _even if the current
asset is in a different asset source_. This will cause breakage for
AssetLoaders that are not designed to add the current source to whatever
paths are being used. AssetLoaders should generally not need to be aware
of the name of their current asset source, or need to think about the
"current asset source" generally. We should build apis that support
relative asset paths and then encourage using relative paths as much as
possible (both via api design and docs). Relative paths are also
important because they will allow developers to move folders around
(even across providers) without reprocessing, provided there is no path
breakage.

Fixes#9676
Possible alternative to #9708
`Text2dBundles` are not currently drawn because the render-world-only
entities for glyphs that are created in `extract_text2d_sprite` are not
tracked by the per-view `VisibleEntities`.
## Solution
Add an `Option<Entity>` to `ExtractedSprite` that keeps track of the
original entity that caused a "glyph entity" to be created.
Use that in `queue_sprites` if it exists when checking view visibility.

# Objective
cleanup some pbr shader code. improve shader stage io consistency and
make pbr.wgsl (probably many people's first foray into bevy shader code)
a little more human-readable. also fix a couple of small issues with
deferred rendering.
## Solution
mesh_vertex_output:
- rename to forward_io (to align with prepass_io)
- rename `MeshVertexOutput` to `VertexOutput` (to align with prepass_io)
- move `Vertex` from mesh.wgsl into here (to align with prepass_io)
prepass_io:
- remove `FragmentInput`, use `VertexOutput` directly (to align with
forward_io)
- rename `VertexOutput::clip_position` to `position` (to align with
forward_io)
pbr.wgsl:
- restructure so we don't need `#ifdefs` on the actual entrypoint, use
VertexOutput and FragmentOutput in all cases and use #ifdefs to import
the right struct definitions.
- rearrange to make the flow clearer
- move alpha_discard up from `pbr_functions::pbr` to avoid needing to
call it on some branches and not others
- add a bunch of comments
deferred_lighting:
- move ssao into the `!unlit` block to reflect forward behaviour
correctly
- fix compile error with deferred + premultiply_alpha
## Migration Guide
in custom material shaders:
- `pbr_functions::pbr` no longer calls to
`pbr_functions::alpha_discard`. if you were using the `pbr` function in
a custom shader with alpha mask mode you now also need to call
alpha_discard manually
- rename imports of `bevy_pbr::mesh_vertex_output` to
`bevy_pbr::forward_io`
- rename instances of `MeshVertexOutput` to `VertexOutput`
in custom material prepass shaders:
- rename instances of `VertexOutput::clip_position` to
`VertexOutput::position`
# Objective
Fixes#10069
## Solution
Extracted UI nodes were previously stored in a `SparseSet` and had a
predictable iteration order. UI borders and outlines relied on this. Now
they are stored in a HashMap and that is no longer true.
This adds `entity.index()` to the sort key for `TransparentUi` so that
the iteration order is predictable and the "border entities" that get
spawned during extraction are guaranteed to get drawn after their
respective container nodes again.
I **think** that everything still works for overlapping ui nodes etc,
because the z value / primary sort is still controlled by the "ui
stack."
Text above is just my current understanding. A rendering expert should
check this out.
I will do some more testing when I can.
# Objective
Fixes [#10061]
## Solution
Renamed `RenderInstance` to `ExtractInstance`, `RenderInstances` to
`ExtractedInstances` and `RenderInstancePlugin` to
`ExtractInstancesPlugin`
# Objective
- Add a [Deferred
Renderer](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deferred_shading) to Bevy.
- This allows subsequent passes to access per pixel material information
before/during shading.
- Accessing this per pixel material information is needed for some
features, like GI. It also makes other features (ex. Decals) simpler to
implement and/or improves their capability. There are multiple
approaches to accomplishing this. The deferred shading approach works
well given the limitations of WebGPU and WebGL2.
Motivation: [I'm working on a GI solution for
Bevy](https://youtu.be/eH1AkL-mwhI)
# Solution
- The deferred renderer is implemented with a prepass and a deferred
lighting pass.
- The prepass renders opaque objects into the Gbuffer attachment
(`Rgba32Uint`). The PBR shader generates a `PbrInput` in mostly the same
way as the forward implementation and then [packs it into the
Gbuffer](ec1465559f/crates/bevy_pbr/src/render/pbr.wgsl (L168)).
- The deferred lighting pass unpacks the `PbrInput` and [feeds it into
the pbr()
function](ec1465559f/crates/bevy_pbr/src/deferred/deferred_lighting.wgsl (L65)),
then outputs the shaded color data.
- There is now a resource
[DefaultOpaqueRendererMethod](ec1465559f/crates/bevy_pbr/src/material.rs (L599))
that can be used to set the default render method for opaque materials.
If materials return `None` from
[opaque_render_method()](ec1465559f/crates/bevy_pbr/src/material.rs (L131))
the `DefaultOpaqueRendererMethod` will be used. Otherwise, custom
materials can also explicitly choose to only support Deferred or Forward
by returning the respective
[OpaqueRendererMethod](ec1465559f/crates/bevy_pbr/src/material.rs (L603))
- Deferred materials can be used seamlessly along with both opaque and
transparent forward rendered materials in the same scene. The [deferred
rendering
example](https://github.com/DGriffin91/bevy/blob/deferred/examples/3d/deferred_rendering.rs)
does this.
- The deferred renderer does not support MSAA. If any deferred materials
are used, MSAA must be disabled. Both TAA and FXAA are supported.
- Deferred rendering supports WebGL2/WebGPU.
## Custom deferred materials
- Custom materials can support both deferred and forward at the same
time. The
[StandardMaterial](ec1465559f/crates/bevy_pbr/src/render/pbr.wgsl (L166))
does this. So does [this
example](https://github.com/DGriffin91/bevy_glowy_orb_tutorial/blob/deferred/assets/shaders/glowy.wgsl#L56).
- Custom deferred materials that require PBR lighting can create a
`PbrInput`, write it to the deferred GBuffer and let it be rendered by
the `PBRDeferredLightingPlugin`.
- Custom deferred materials that require custom lighting have two
options:
1. Use the base_color channel of the `PbrInput` combined with the
`STANDARD_MATERIAL_FLAGS_UNLIT_BIT` flag.
[Example.](https://github.com/DGriffin91/bevy_glowy_orb_tutorial/blob/deferred/assets/shaders/glowy.wgsl#L56)
(If the unlit bit is set, the base_color is stored as RGB9E5 for extra
precision)
2. A Custom Deferred Lighting pass can be created, either overriding the
default, or running in addition. The a depth buffer is used to limit
rendering to only the required fragments for each deferred lighting
pass. Materials can set their respective depth id via the
[deferred_lighting_pass_id](b79182d2a3/crates/bevy_pbr/src/prepass/prepass_io.wgsl (L95))
attachment. The custom deferred lighting pass plugin can then set [its
corresponding
depth](ec1465559f/crates/bevy_pbr/src/deferred/deferred_lighting.wgsl (L37)).
Then with the lighting pass using
[CompareFunction::Equal](ec1465559f/crates/bevy_pbr/src/deferred/mod.rs (L335)),
only the fragments with a depth that equal the corresponding depth
written in the material will be rendered.
Custom deferred lighting plugins can also be created to render the
StandardMaterial. The default deferred lighting plugin can be bypassed
with `DefaultPlugins.set(PBRDeferredLightingPlugin { bypass: true })`

# Objective
While using joysticks for player aiming, I noticed that there was as
`0.05` value snap on the axis. After searching through Bevy's code, I
saw it was the default livezone being at `0.95`. This causes any value
higher to snap to `1.0`. I think `1.0` and `-1.0` would be a better
default, as it gives all values to the joystick arc.
This default livezone stumped me for a bit as I thought either something
was broken or I was doing something wrong.
## Solution
Change the livezone defaults to ` livezone_upperbound: 1.0` and
`livezone_lowerbound: -1.0`.
---
## Migration Guide
If the default 0.05 was relied on, the default or gamepad `AxisSettings`
on the resource `GamepadSettings` will have to be changed.
# Objective
- Fixes#8303
## Solution
- Replaced 1 instance of `OnceBox<T>` with `OnceLock<T>` in
`NonGenericTypeCell`
## Notes
All changes are in the private side of Bevy, and appear to have no
observable change in performance or compilation time. This is purely to
reduce the quantity of direct dependencies in Bevy.
