Variables that a package consumer might want to adjust should be placed
at the top of the file so they are immediately visible. Any constants
shall live below those (just the SRC folder, really).
Bevy creates it's own canvas element by default, but the custom page
defines its own. This makes Bevy go find that one.
The window sizing still works -- it simply resizes the canvas upon
starting. I'm not sure if I'll change that or remove the size from the
HTML. That's a tomorrow problem.
When the player gets a game-over, the debris is spawned and then frozen
in place as the physics system gets turned off. I can make sure it never
appears by writing the state change and returning early from the
function.
This means the asteroid despawning needs to happen before that point,
otherwise the asteroids would be left on screen.
I'm stealing the thruster mesh, which itself is actually the ship's
mesh, to draw the debris particles. I'll come back and make the scatter
a bit better at some point, but for now it's passable.
I'll be using this to make a sparkling effect on the debris field left
behind from a destroyed ship.
It can also be used to do the temporary invincibility effect when
(re)spawning the player.
Closes#23: Main menu's start button doesn't run the get-ready timer
I made the start button go directly to `GameState::Playing`, which is
not actually the right state for beginning a new game. Swap the states
and everything works again.
There is now a `Weapon` component which is just a timer for the gun's
fire rate. It is ticked every frame, clamping at the "ready" state (0
time remaining).
The ship spawns with this thing, and the `input_ship_shoot` system has
been updated to use it.
Now it works!... but it runs every single frame, probably causing a
bunch of unnecessary text rendering and UI layout operations. I'll have
to come back and make it event-based at some point.
The `rand` crate eventually depends on `getrandom` which requires a
different feature set when running in the browser. WASM has no OS, and
so no RNG provider... but the browser, specifically, has one that the
JavaScript runtime can touch. Enabling the "wasm_js" feature on
`getrandom` allowes it to use this backend.
An extra config option must *also* be passed to `rustc`. THis can be set
through the environment, or the config.toml. I've chosen the latter so I
don't need to think about it very often.
I marked 0.2 at some point, so I guess I should keep incrementing this
during development. The menus are finished, which is as good a
checkpoint as any.
I've taken a lot directly from the Bevy UI button example.
(https://bevy.org/examples/ui-user-interface/button/)
I'll make it look better later. For now, it just needs to exist. Onward
to the UI operation system!
I want the different "scenes" to be their own plugins for ease of setup
and reading.
The main menu plugin has been renamed to have "Plugin" first. This is so
the lexical sort in the docs places all the plugins next to each other.
The "get-ready" plugin has been given an empty struct and an
`impl Plugin` to match the main menu plugin. I've started the game over
scene, but left it unimplemented.
Closes#16
Bevy provides Deref and DerefMut derives, so that's nice. I'm not sure
it makes any sense to keep the field private since those derefs expose
the Vec2 anyway. I added an `impl Default` anyway, though.
The non-gameplay scenes are really just a bunch of widgets. I'm going to
put them all together and then bundle the functionality with some
exported plugin builders.
