The data-oriented design of ECS helps as well. |
|
|
|
The object-oriented API in the GamecraftModdingAPI still queries entity components behind-the-scenes, |

so even OOP can take advantage of ECS design, albeit with some drawbacks. |

The database system in Svelto.ECS purposely allows for new entities to created but not made accessible immediately for some deterministic reason. |

A year ago, I thought ECS was a fancy niche concept which would be worthless for me to learn. It may still be worthless for my job, but its a vital part of Gamecraft and mods that I wouldn't pass up. I wonder when FreeJam will give us an official modding API for interacting with Svelto.ECS... |
