# Objective
`bevy_assets` has long been unapproachable for contributors and users.
More and better documentation would help that.
We're gradually moving towards globally denying missing docs (#3492)!
However, writing all of the hundreds of missing doc strings in a single
go will be miserable to review.
## Solution
Remove the allow for missing docs temporarily, and then pick some easy
missing doc warnings largely at random to tackle.
Stop when the change set is starting to feel intimidating.
The `output_index` field is only used in direct mode, and the
`indirect_parameters_index` field is only used in indirect mode.
Consequently, we can combine them into a single field, reducing the size
of `PreprocessWorkItem`, which
`batch_and_prepare_{binned,sorted}_render_phase` must construct every
frame for every mesh instance, from 96 bits to 64 bits.
# Objective
Continuation of #16547.
We do not yet have parallel versions of `par_iter_many` and
`par_iter_many_unique`. It is currently very painful to try and use
parallel iteration over entity lists. Even if a list is not long, each
operation might still be very expensive, and worth parallelizing.
Plus, it has been requested several times!
## Solution
Once again, we implement what we lack!
These parallel iterators collect their input entity list into a
`Vec`/`UniqueEntityVec`, then chunk that over the available threads,
inspired by the original `par_iter`.
Since no order guarantee is given to the caller, we could sort the input
list according to `EntityLocation`, but that would likely only be worth
it for very large entity lists.
There is some duplication which could likely be improved, but I'd like
to leave that for a follow-up.
## Testing
The doc tests on `for_each_init` of `QueryParManyIter` and
`QueryParManyUniqueIter`.
# Objective
While surveying the state of documentation for bevy_assets, I noticed a
few minor issues.
## Solution
Revise the docs to focus on clear explanations of core ideas and
cross-linking related objects.
# Objective
Update typos, fix new typos.
1.29.6 was just released to fix an
[issue](https://github.com/crate-ci/typos/issues/1228) where January's
corrections were not included in the binaries for the last release.
Reminder: typos can be tossed in the monthly [non-critical corrections
issue](https://github.com/crate-ci/typos/issues/1221).
## Solution
I chose to allow `implementors`, because a good argument seems to be
being made [here](https://github.com/crate-ci/typos/issues/1226) and
there is now a PR to address that.
## Discussion
Should I exclude `bevy_mikktspace`?
At one point I think we had an informal policy of "don't mess with
mikktspace until https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/9050 is merged"
but it doesn't seem like that is likely to be merged any time soon.
I think these particular corrections in mikktspace are fine because
- The same typo mistake seems to have been fixed in that PR
- The entire file containing these corrections was deleted in that PR
## Typo of the Month
correspindong -> corresponding
# Objective
Updates the now inaccurate position docs
Fixes#17832
## Solution
From
`The position of the intersection in the world, if the data is available
from the backend.`
To
`The position reported by the backend, if the data is available.
Position data may be in any space (e.g. World space, Screen space, Local
space), specified by the backend providing it.`
## Testing
uhh reading :)
Currently, invocations of `batch_and_prepare_binned_render_phase` and
`batch_and_prepare_sorted_render_phase` can't run in parallel because
they write to scene-global GPU buffers. After PR #17698,
`batch_and_prepare_binned_render_phase` started accounting for the
lion's share of the CPU time, causing us to be strongly CPU bound on
scenes like Caldera when occlusion culling was on (because of the
overhead of batching for the Z-prepass). Although I eventually plan to
optimize `batch_and_prepare_binned_render_phase`, we can obtain
significant wins now by parallelizing that system across phases.
This commit splits all GPU buffers that
`batch_and_prepare_binned_render_phase` and
`batch_and_prepare_sorted_render_phase` touches into separate buffers
for each phase so that the scheduler will run those phases in parallel.
At the end of batch preparation, we gather the render phases up into a
single resource with a new *collection* phase. Because we already run
mesh preprocessing separately for each phase in order to make occlusion
culling work, this is actually a cleaner separation. For example, mesh
output indices (the unique ID that identifies each mesh instance on GPU)
are now guaranteed to be sequential starting from 0, which will simplify
the forthcoming work to remove them in favor of the compute dispatch ID.
On Caldera, this brings the frame time down to approximately 9.1 ms with
occlusion culling on.
# Objective
Fix unsoundness introduced by #15858. `QueryLens::query()` would hand
out a `Query` with the full `'w` lifetime, and the new `_inner` methods
would let the results outlive the `Query`. This could be used to create
aliasing mutable references, like
```rust
fn bad<'w>(mut lens: QueryLens<'w, EntityMut>, entity: Entity) {
let one: EntityMut<'w> = lens.query().get_inner(entity).unwrap();
let two: EntityMut<'w> = lens.query().get_inner(entity).unwrap();
assert!(one.entity() == two.entity());
}
```
Fixes#17693
## Solution
Restrict the `'world` lifetime in the `Query` returned by
`QueryLens::query()` to `'_`, the lifetime of the borrow of the
`QueryLens`.
The model here is that `Query<'w, 's, D, F>` and `QueryLens<'w, D, F>`
have permission to access their components for the lifetime `'w`. So
going from `&'a mut QueryLens<'w>` to `Query<'w, 'a>` would borrow the
permission only for the `'a` lifetime, but incorrectly give it out for
the full `'w` lifetime.
To handle any cases where users were calling `get_inner()` or
`iter_inner()` on the `Query` and expecting the full `'w` lifetime, we
introduce a new `QueryLens::query_inner()` method. This is only valid
for `ReadOnlyQueryData`, so it may safely hand out a copy of the
permission for the full `'w` lifetime. Since `get_inner()` and
`iter_inner()` were only valid on `ReadOnlyQueryData` prior to #15858,
that should cover any uses that relied on the longer lifetime.
## Migration Guide
Users of `QueryLens::query()` who were calling `get_inner()` or
`iter_inner()` will need to replace the call with
`QueryLens::query_inner()`.
Conceptually, bins are ordered hash maps. We currently implement these
as a list of keys with an associated hash map. But we already have a
data type that implements ordered hash maps directly: `IndexMap`. This
patch switches Bevy to use `IndexMap`s for bins. Because we're memory
bound, this doesn't affect performance much, but it is cleaner.
# Objective
Related to #17784. The ticket is actually about just getting rid of
`Entity{Ref,Mut}Except` in favor of `FilteredEntity{Ref,Mut}`, but I got
told the unification of Entity types is a bigger endeavor that has been
going on for a while now (as the "Pointing Fingers" working group) and I
should just add the functions I actually need in the meantime.
## Solution
This PR adds all of the functions necessary to access components by
TypeId or ComponentId instead of static types.
## Testing
> Did you test these changes? If so, how?
Haven't tested it yet, but the changes are mostly copy/paste from other
implementations in the same file, since there is a lot of duplicated
functionality there.
## Not a Migration Guide
There shouldn't be any breaking changes, it's just a few new functions
on existing types.
I had to shuffle around the lifetimes in `From<&EntityMutExcept<'a, B>>
for EntityRefExcept<'a, B>` (originally it was `From<&'a
EntityMutExcept<'_, B>> for EntityRefExcept<'_, B>`) to make the borrow
checker happy, but I don't think that this should have an impact on user
code (correct me if I'm wrong).
* Use texture atomics rather than buffer atomics for the visbuffer
(haven't tested perf on a raster-heavy scene yet)
* Unfortunately to clear the visbuffer we now need a compute pass to
clear it. Using wgpu's clear_texture function internally uses a buffer
-> image copy that's insanely expensive. Ideally it should be using
vkCmdClearColorImage, which I've opened an issue for
https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/issues/7090. For now we'll have to stick
with a custom compute pass and all the extra code that brings.
* Faster resolve depth pass by discarding 0 depth pixels instead of
redundantly writing zero (2x faster for big depth textures like shadow
views)
# Objective
- Wgpu has some expensive code it injects into shaders to avoid the
possibility of things like infinite loops. Generally our shaders are
written by users who won't do this, so it just makes our shaders perform
worse.
## Solution
- Turn off the checks.
- We could try to conditionally keep them, but that complicates the code
and 99.9% of users won't want this.
## Migration Guide
- Bevy no longer turns on wgpu's runtime safety checks
https://docs.rs/wgpu/latest/wgpu/struct.ShaderRuntimeChecks.html. If you
were using Bevy with untrusted shaders, please file an issue.

# Objective
Continuation of #17589 and #16547.
Slices have several methods that return iterators which themselves yield
slices, which we have not yet implemented.
An example use is `par_iter_many` style logic.
## Solution
Their implementation is rather straightforward, we simply delegate all
impls to `[T]`.
The resulting iterator types need their own wrappers in the form of
`UniqueEntitySliceIter` and `UniqueEntitySliceIterMut`.
We also add three free functions that cast slices of entity slices to
slices of `UniqueEntitySlice`.
These three should be sufficient, though infinite nesting is achievable
with a trait (like `TrustedEntityBorrow` works over infinite reference
nesting), should the need ever arise.
## Objective
Get rid of a redundant Cargo feature flag.
## Solution
Use the built-in `target_abi = "sim"` instead of a custom Cargo feature
flag, which is set for the iOS (and visionOS and tvOS) simulator. This
has been stable since Rust 1.78.
In the future, some of this may become redundant if Wgpu implements
proper supper for the iOS Simulator:
https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/issues/7057
CC @mockersf who implemented [the original
fix](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/10178).
## Testing
- Open mobile example in Xcode.
- Launch the simulator.
- See that no errors are emitted.
- Remove the code cfg-guarded behind `target_abi = "sim"`.
- See that an error now happens.
(I haven't actually performed these steps on the latest `main`, because
I'm hitting an unrelated error (EDIT: It was
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/17637). But tested it on
0.15.0).
---
## Migration Guide
> If you're using a project that builds upon the mobile example, remove
the `ios_simulator` feature from your `Cargo.toml` (Bevy now handles
this internally).
Currently, we look up each `MeshInputUniform` index in a hash table that
maps the main entity ID to the index every frame. This is inefficient,
cache unfriendly, and unnecessary, as the `MeshInputUniform` index for
an entity remains the same from frame to frame (even if the input
uniform changes). This commit changes the `IndexSet` in the `RenderBin`
to an `IndexMap` that maps the `MainEntity` to `MeshInputUniformIndex`
(a new type that this patch adds for more type safety).
On Caldera with parallel `batch_and_prepare_binned_render_phase`, this
patch improves that function from 3.18 ms to 2.42 ms, a 31% speedup.
Currently, when a mesh slab overflows, we recreate the allocator and
reinsert all the meshes that were in it in an arbitrary order. This can
result in the meshes moving around. Before `MeshInputUniform`s were
retained, this was slow but harmless, because the `MeshInputUniform`
that contained the positions of the vertex and index data in the slab
would be recreated every frame. However, with mesh retention, there's no
guarantee that the `MeshInputUniform`, which could be cached from the
previous frame, will reflect the new position of the mesh data within
the buffer if that buffer happened to grow. This manifested itself as
seeming mesh data corruption when adding many meshes dynamically to the
scene.
There are three possible ways that I could have fixed this that I can
see:
1. Invalidate and rebuild all the `MeshInputUniform`s belonging to all
meshes in a slab when that mesh grows.
2. Introduce a second layer of indirection so that the
`MeshInputUniform` points to a *mesh allocation table* that contains the
current locations of the data of each mesh.
3. Avoid moving meshes when reallocating the buffer.
To be efficient, option (1) would require scanning meshes to see if
their positions changed, a la
`mark_meshes_as_changed_if_their_materials_changed`. Option (2) would
add more runtime indirection and would require additional bookkeeping on
the part of the allocator.
Therefore, this PR chooses option (3), which was remarkably simple to
implement. The key is that the offset allocator happens to allocate
addresses from low addresses to high addresses. So all we have to do is
to *conceptually* allocate the full 512 MiB mesh slab as far as the
offset allocator is concerned, and grow the underlying backing store
from 1 MiB to 512 MiB as needed. In other words, the allocator now
allocates *virtual* GPU memory, and the actual backing slab resizes to
fit the virtual memory. This ensures that the location of mesh data
remains constant for the lifetime of the mesh asset, and we can remove
the code that reinserts meshes one by one when the slab grows in favor
of a single buffer copy.
Closes#17766.
# Objective
- Fixes#17797
## Solution
- `mesh` in `bevy_pbr::mesh_bindings` is behind a `ifndef

## Testing
- Run the meshlet example
# Objective
- In #17743, attention was raised to the fact that we supported an
unusual kind of step easing function. The author of the fix kindly
provided some links to standards used in CSS. It would be desirable to
support generally agreed upon standards so this PR here tries to
implement an extra configuration option of the step easing function
- Resolve#17744
## Solution
- Introduce `StepConfig`
- `StepConfig` can configure both the number of steps and the jumping
behavior of the function
- `StepConfig` replaces the raw `usize` parameter of the
`EasingFunction::Steps(usize)` construct.
- `StepConfig`s default jumping behavior is `end`, so in that way it
follows #17743
## Testing
- I added a new test per `JumpAt` jumping behavior. These tests
replicate the visuals that can be found at
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/easing-function/steps#description
## Migration Guide
- `EasingFunction::Steps` now uses a `StepConfig` instead of a raw
`usize`. You can replicate the previous behavior by replaceing
`EasingFunction::Steps(10)` with
`EasingFunction::Steps(StepConfig::new(10))`.

This commit builds on top of the work done in #16589 and #17051, by
adding support for fallible observer systems.
As with the previous work, the actual results of the observer system are

errors in a global way.
Until then, you can use a `PipeSystem` to manually handle results.

## What problem does this solve or what need does it fill?
There are some situations
(https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/13735) where the ticks that
are present inside `Ref` are incorrect, for example if `Ref` is created
outside of a `SystemParam`.
I still want to use `Ref` because it has convenient `is_added` and
`is_changed` methods.
My current solution is to build my own `Ref` by copy-pasting most the
bevy code to do that via something like
```rust
/// This method is necessary because there is no easy way to
pub(crate) fn get_ref<C: Component>(
world: &World,
entity: Entity,
last_run: Tick,
this_run: Tick,
) -> Ref<C> {
unsafe {
let component_id = world
.components()
.get_id(TypeId::of::<C>())
.unwrap_unchecked();
let world = world.as_unsafe_world_cell_readonly();
let entity_cell = world.get_entity(entity).unwrap_unchecked();
get_component_and_ticks(
world,
component_id,
C::STORAGE_TYPE,
entity,
entity_cell.location(),
)
.map(|(value, cells, _caller)| {
Ref::new(
value.deref::<C>(),
cells.added.deref(),
cells.changed.deref(),
last_run,
this_run,
#[cfg(feature = "track_location")]
_caller.deref(),
)
})
.unwrap_unchecked()
}
}
// Utility function to return
#[inline]
unsafe fn get_component_and_ticks(
world: UnsafeWorldCell<'_>,
component_id: ComponentId,
storage_type: StorageType,
entity: Entity,
location: EntityLocation,
) -> Option<(Ptr<'_>, TickCells<'_>, MaybeUnsafeCellLocation<'_>)> {
match storage_type {
StorageType::Table => {
let table = unsafe { world.storages().tables.get(location.table_id) }?;
// SAFETY: archetypes only store valid table_rows and caller ensure aliasing rules
Some((
table.get_component(component_id, location.table_row)?,
TickCells {
added: table
.get_added_tick(component_id, location.table_row)
.unwrap_unchecked(),
changed: table
.get_changed_tick(component_id, location.table_row)
.unwrap_unchecked(),
},
#[cfg(feature = "track_location")]
table
.get_changed_by(component_id, location.table_row)
.unwrap_unchecked(),
#[cfg(not(feature = "track_location"))]
(),
))
}
StorageType::SparseSet => {
let storage = unsafe { world.storages() }.sparse_sets.get(component_id)?;
storage.get_with_ticks(entity)
}
}
}
```
It would be very convenient if instead bevy exposed a way to create a
`Ref` object with custom `last_run` and `this_run` ticks.
This PR does this by exposing a function to overwrite the `last_run` and
`this_run` ticks.
(Same with `Mut`)
I am ok with marking the method unsafe or risky if it's deemed to risky
for end-users.
# Objective
Add position reporting to `HitData` sent from the UI picking backend.
## Solution
Add the computed normalized relative cursor position to `hit_data`
alongside the `Entity`.
The position reported in `HitData` is normalized relative to the node,
with `(0.,0.,0.)` at the top left and `(1., 1., 0.)` in the bottom
right. Coordinates are relative to the entire node, not just the visible
region.
`HitData` needs a `Vec3` so I just extended with 0.0. I considered
inserting the `depth` here but thought it would be redundant.
I also considered putting the screen space position in the `normal`
field of `HitData`, but that would require renaming of the field or a
separate data structure.
## Testing
Tested with mouse on X11 with entities that have `Node` components.
---
## Showcase
```rs
// Get click position relative to node
fn hit_position(trigger: Trigger<Pointer<Click>>) {
let hit_pos = trigger.event.hit.position.expect("no position");
info!("{}", hit_pos);
}
```

You can now configure error handlers for fallible systems. These can be
configured on several levels:
- Globally via `App::set_systems_error_handler`
- Per-schedule via `Schedule::set_error_handler`
- Per-system via a piped system (this is existing functionality)
The default handler of panicking on error keeps the same behavior as
before this commit.
The "fallible_systems" example demonstrates the new functionality.
This builds on top of #17731, #16589, #17051.

This is a follow up fix for #17330 and fixes#17780.
There was a logic error in the ambiguity detection of
`cargo-manifest-proc-macros`.
`cargo-manifest-proc-macros` now has a test for this case to prevent the
issue in the future.
I also opted to hard fail if the `cargo-manifest-proc-macros` crate
fails. That way the error is more obvious and easier to fix and
diagnose.
## Testing
- The reproducer:
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy_editor_prototypes/pull/178 works for
me using these fixes.
# Objective
Currently, default query filters, as added in #13120 / #17514 are
hardcoded to only use a single query filter.
This is limiting, as multiple distinct disabling components can serve
important distinct roles. I ran into this limitation when experimenting
with a workflow for prefabs, which don't represent the same state as "an
entity which is temporarily nonfunctional".
## Solution
1. Change `DefaultQueryFilters` to store a SmallVec of ComponentId,
rather than an Option.
2. Expose methods on `DefaultQueryFilters`, `World` and `App` to
actually configure this.
3. While we're here, improve the docs, write some tests, make use of
FromWorld and make some method names more descriptive.
## Follow-up
I'm not convinced that supporting sparse set disabling components is
useful, given the hit to iteration performance and runtime checks
incurred. That's disjoint from this PR though, so I'm not doing it here.
The existing warnings are fine for now.
## Testing
I've added both a doc test and an mid-level unit test to verify that
this works!

# Objective
Since previously we only had the alpha channel available, we stored the
mean of the transmittance in the aerial view lut, resulting in a grayer
fog than should be expected.
## Solution
- Calculate transmittance to scene in `render_sky` with two samples from
the transmittance lut
- use dual-source blending to effectively have per-component alpha
blending
Currently, we *sweep*, or remove entities from bins when those entities
became invisible or changed phases, during `queue_material_meshes` and
similar phases. This, however, is wrong, because `queue_material_meshes`
executes once per material type, not once per phase. This could result
in sweeping bins multiple times per phase, which can corrupt the bins.
This commit fixes the issue by moving sweeping to a separate system that
runs after queuing.
This manifested itself as entities appearing and disappearing seemingly
at random.

# Objective
- Expand the documentation for `EasingCurve`.
- I suspect this might have avoided the confusion in
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/17711.
- Also add a shortcut for simple cases.
## Solution
- Added various examples and extra context.
- Implemented `Curve<T>` for `EaseFunction`.
- This means `EasingCurve::new(0.0, 1.0, EaseFunction::X)` can be
shortened to `EaseFunction::X`.
- In some cases this will be a minor performance improvement.
- Added test to confirm they're the same.
- ~~Added some benchmarks for bonus points.~~
## Side Notes
- I would have liked to rename `EaseFunction` to `EaseFn` for brevity,
but that would be a breaking change and maybe controversial.
- Also suspect `EasingCurve` should be `EaseCurve`, but say la vee.
- Benchmarks show that calling `EaseFunction::Smoothstep` is still
slower than calling `smoothstep` directly.
- I think this is because the compiler refuses to inline
`EaseFunction::eval`.
- I don't see any good solution - might need a whole different
interface.

instead of leaving black pixels if the data provided is not a nice
factor of the size of the image.

# Objective
Currently
[CosmicBuffer](https://docs.rs/bevy/latest/bevy/text/struct.CosmicBuffer.html)
is a public type with a public field that is not used or accessible in
any public API. Since it is prominently shown in the docs it is the
obvious place to start when trying to access `cosmic_string` features
such as for mapping between screen coordinates and positions in the
displayed text.
The only place `CosmicBuffer` is currently used is as a field of
`ComputedTextBlock`, where a comment explains why the field is private:
/// Buffer for managing text layout and creating [`TextLayoutInfo`].
///
/// This is private because buffer contents are always refreshed from
ECS state when writing glyphs to
/// `TextLayoutInfo`. If you want to control the buffer contents
manually or use the `cosmic-text`
/// editor, then you need to not use `TextLayout` and instead manually
implement the conversion to
/// `TextLayoutInfo`.
#[reflect(ignore)]
pub(crate) buffer: CosmicBuffer,
Unfortunately this comment does not appear in the docs, so a user
looking for a way to access `CosmicBuffer` will not find it unless they
check the source code.
Also there does not seem to be any alternative way to map between screen
coordinates and positions in the displayed text, which would be highly
useful for things like text edit widgets or tool tips. The reasons given
for making the field private only apply for mutable access, so
non-mutable access would presumably be fine.
## Solution
I added a getter to `ComputedTextBlock`, and added the explanation for
why there is no mutable access in the comment:
/// Accesses the underling buffer which can be used for `cosmic-text`
APIs such as accessing layout information
/// or calculating a cursor position.
///
/// Mutable access not offered because changes would be overwritten
during the automated layout calculation.
/// If you want to control the buffer contents manually or use the
`cosmic-text`
/// editor, then you need to not use `TextLayout` and instead manually
implement the conversion to
/// `TextLayoutInfo`.
pub fn get_buffer(&self) -> &CosmicBuffer {
&self.buffer
}
## Testing
I tested that the getter could be used to map from screen coordinates to
string positions by creating a rudimentary text edit widget and trying
it out.
## Alternatives
An alternative to making `CosmicBuffer` accessible would be to make the
type private so that no one wastes time looking for a way of accessing
it, and adding additional methods to `ComputedTextBlock` that make use
of the buffer as implementation detail and offer access to currently
inaccessible functionality.

version are ignored by cargo when publishing
- Gate all the tests that depend on the `approx` feature so that it
doesn't fail to compile when not enabled
- Also gate an import that wasn't used without `bevy_reflect`
## Testing
- with at least cargo 1.84: `cargo package -p bevy_math`
- `cd target/package/bevy_math_* && cargo test`
# Objective
Restore the behavior of `Query::get_many` prior to #15858.
When passed duplicate `Entity`s, `get_many` is supposed to return
results for all of them, since read-only queries don't alias. However,
#15858 merged the implementation with `get_many_mut` and caused it to
return `QueryEntityError::AliasedMutability`.
## Solution
Introduce a new `Query::get_many_readonly` method that consumes the
`Query` like `get_many_inner`, but that is constrained to `D:
ReadOnlyQueryData` so that it can skip the aliasing check. Implement
`Query::get_many` in terms of that new method. Add a test, and a comment
explaining why it doesn't match the pattern of the other `&self`
methods.
This method returns `None` if `meta.location.archetype_id` is
`ArchetypeId::INVALID`.
`EntityLocation::INVALID.archetype_id` is `ArchetypeId::INVALID`.
Therefore this method cannot return `Some(EntityLocation::INVALID)`.
Linking to it in the docs is futile anyway as that constant is not
public.
# Objective
`bevy_picking` currently does not support scroll events.
## Solution
This pr adds a new event type for scroll, and updates the default input
system for mouse pointers to read and emit this event.
## Testing
- Did you test these changes? If so, how?
- Are there any parts that need more testing?
- How can other people (reviewers) test your changes? Is there anything
specific they need to know?
- If relevant, what platforms did you test these changes on, and are
there any important ones you can't test?
I haven't tested these changes, if the reviewers can advise me how to do
so I'd appreciate it!
# Objective
- Allow users to configure volume using decibels by changing the
`Volume` type from newtyping an `f32` to an enum with `Linear` and
`Decibels` variants.
- Fixes#9507.
- Alternative reworked version of closed#9582.
## Solution
Compared to https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/9582, this PR has
the following main differences:
1. It uses the term "linear scale" instead of "amplitude" per
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/9582/files#r1513529491.
2. Supports `ops` for doing `Volume` arithmetic. Can add two volumes,
e.g. to increase/decrease the current volume. Can multiply two volumes,
e.g. to get the “effective” volume of an audio source considering global
volume.

---
## Migration Guide
Audio volume can now be configured using decibel values, as well as
using linear scale values. To enable this, some types and functions in
`bevy_audio` have changed.
- `Volume` is now an enum with `Linear` and `Decibels` variants.
Before:
```rust
let v = Volume(1.0);
```
After:
```rust
let volume = Volume::Linear(1.0);
let volume = Volume::Decibels(0.0); // or now you can deal with decibels if you prefer
```
- `Volume::ZERO` has been renamed to the more semantically correct
`Volume::SILENT` because `Volume` now supports decibels and "zero
volume" in decibels actually means "normal volume".
- The `AudioSinkPlayback` trait's volume-related methods now deal with
`Volume` types rather than `f32`s. `AudioSinkPlayback::volume()` now
returns a `Volume` rather than an `f32`. `AudioSinkPlayback::set_volume`
now receives a `Volume` rather than an `f32`. This affects the
`AudioSink` and `SpatialAudioSink` implementations of the trait. The
previous `f32` values are equivalent to the volume converted to linear
scale so the `Volume:: Linear` variant should be used to migrate between
`f32`s and `Volume`.
- The `GlobalVolume::new` function now receives a `Volume` instead of an
`f32`.

# Objective
Eliminate the need to write `cfg(feature = "track_location")` every time
one uses an API that may use location tracking. It's verbose, and a
little intimidating. And it requires code outside of `bevy_ecs` that
wants to use location tracking needs to either unconditionally enable
the feature, or include conditional compilation of its own. It would be
good for users to be able to log locations when they are available
without needing to add feature flags to their own crates.
Reduce the number of cases where code compiles with the `track_location`
feature enabled, but not with it disabled, or vice versa. It can be hard
to remember to test it both ways!
Remove the need to store a `None` in `HookContext` when the
`track_location` feature is disabled.
## Solution
Create an `MaybeLocation<T>` type that contains a `T` if the
`track_location` feature is enabled, and is a ZST if it is not. The
overall API is similar to `Option`, but whether the value is `Some` or
`None` is set at compile time and is the same for all values.
Default `T` to `&'static Location<'static>`, since that is the most
common case.
Remove all `cfg(feature = "track_location")` blocks outside of the
implementation of that type, and instead call methods on it.
When `track_location` is disabled, `MaybeLocation` is a ZST and all
methods are `#[inline]` and empty, so they should be entirely removed by
the compiler. But the code will still be visible to the compiler and
checked, so if it compiles with the feature disabled then it should also
compile with it enabled, and vice versa.
## Open Questions
Where should these types live? I put them in `change_detection` because
that's where the existing `MaybeLocation` types were, but we now use
these outside of change detection.
While I believe that the compiler should be able to remove all of these
calls, I have not actually tested anything. If we want to take this
approach, what testing is required to ensure it doesn't impact
performance?
## Migration Guide
Methods like `Ref::changed_by()` that return a `&'static
Location<'static>` will now be available even when the `track_location`
feature is disabled, but they will return a new `MaybeLocation` type.
`MaybeLocation` wraps a `&'static Location<'static>` when the feature is
enabled, and is a ZST when the feature is disabled.
Existing code that needs a `&Location` can call `into_option().unwrap()`
to recover it. Many trait impls are forwarded, so if you only need
`Display` then no changes will be necessary.
If that code was conditionally compiled, you may instead want to use the
methods on `MaybeLocation` to remove the need for conditional
compilation.
Code that constructs a `Ref`, `Mut`, `Res`, or `ResMut` will now need to
provide location information unconditionally. If you are creating them
from existing Bevy types, you can obtain a `MaybeLocation` from methods
like `Table::get_changed_by_slice_for()` or
`ComponentSparseSet::get_with_ticks`. Otherwise, you will need to store
a `MaybeLocation` next to your data and use methods like `as_ref()` or
`as_mut()` to obtain wrapped references.
# Objective
Fixes#15417.
## Solution
- Remove the `labeled_assets` fields from `LoadedAsset` and
`ErasedLoadedAsset`.
- Created new structs `CompleteLoadedAsset` and
`CompleteErasedLoadedAsset` to hold the `labeled_subassets`.
- When a subasset is `LoadContext::finish`ed, it produces a
`CompleteLoadedAsset`.
- When a `CompleteLoadedAsset` is added to a `LoadContext` (as a
subasset), their `labeled_assets` are merged, reporting any overlaps.
One important detail to note: nested subassets with overlapping names
could in theory have been used in the past for the purposes of asset
preprocessing. Even though there was no way to access these "shadowed"
nested subassets, asset preprocessing does get access to these nested
subassets. This does not seem like a case we should support though. It
is confusing at best.
## Testing
- This is just a refactor.
---
## Migration Guide
- Most uses of `LoadedAsset` and `ErasedLoadedAsset` should be replaced
with `CompleteLoadedAsset` and `CompleteErasedLoadedAsset` respectively.
# Objective
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/16966 tried to fix a bug where
`slot` wasn't passed to `parallaxed_uv` when not running under bindless,
but failed to account for meshlets. This surfaces on macOS where
bindless is disabled.
## Solution
Lift the slot variable out of the bindless condition so it's always
available.
# Objective
It's difficult to understand or make changes to the UI systems because
of how each system needs to individually track changes to scale factor,
windows and camera targets in local hashmaps, particularly for new
contributors. Any major change inevitably introduces new scale factor
bugs.
Instead of per-system resolution we can resolve the camera target info
for all UI nodes in a system at the start of `PostUpdate` and then store
it per-node in components that can be queried with change detection.
Fixes#17578Fixes#15143
## Solution
Store the UI render target's data locally per node in a component that
is updated in `PostUpdate` before any other UI systems run.
This component can be then be queried with change detection so that UI
systems no longer need to have knowledge of cameras and windows and
don't require fragile custom change detection solutions using local
hashmaps.
## Showcase
Compare `measure_text_system` from main (which has a bug the causes it
to use the wrong scale factor when a node's camera target changes):
```
pub fn measure_text_system(
mut scale_factors_buffer: Local<EntityHashMap<f32>>,
mut last_scale_factors: Local<EntityHashMap<f32>>,
fonts: Res<Assets<Font>>,
camera_query: Query<(Entity, &Camera)>,
default_ui_camera: DefaultUiCamera,
ui_scale: Res<UiScale>,
mut text_query: Query<
(
Entity,
Ref<TextLayout>,
&mut ContentSize,
&mut TextNodeFlags,
&mut ComputedTextBlock,
Option<&UiTargetCamera>,
),
With<Node>,
>,
mut text_reader: TextUiReader,
mut text_pipeline: ResMut<TextPipeline>,
mut font_system: ResMut<CosmicFontSystem>,
) {
scale_factors_buffer.clear();
let default_camera_entity = default_ui_camera.get();
for (entity, block, content_size, text_flags, computed, maybe_camera) in &mut text_query {
let Some(camera_entity) = maybe_camera
.map(UiTargetCamera::entity)
.or(default_camera_entity)
else {
continue;
};
let scale_factor = match scale_factors_buffer.entry(camera_entity) {
Entry::Occupied(entry) => *entry.get(),
Entry::Vacant(entry) => *entry.insert(
camera_query
.get(camera_entity)
.ok()
.and_then(|(_, c)| c.target_scaling_factor())
.unwrap_or(1.0)
* ui_scale.0,
),
};
if last_scale_factors.get(&camera_entity) != Some(&scale_factor)
|| computed.needs_rerender()
|| text_flags.needs_measure_fn
|| content_size.is_added()
{
create_text_measure(
entity,
&fonts,
scale_factor.into(),
text_reader.iter(entity),
block,
&mut text_pipeline,
content_size,
text_flags,
computed,
&mut font_system,
);
}
}
core::mem::swap(&mut *last_scale_factors, &mut *scale_factors_buffer);
}
```
with `measure_text_system` from this PR (which always uses the correct
scale factor):
```
pub fn measure_text_system(
fonts: Res<Assets<Font>>,
mut text_query: Query<
(
Entity,
Ref<TextLayout>,
&mut ContentSize,
&mut TextNodeFlags,
&mut ComputedTextBlock,
Ref<ComputedNodeTarget>,
),
With<Node>,
>,
mut text_reader: TextUiReader,
mut text_pipeline: ResMut<TextPipeline>,
mut font_system: ResMut<CosmicFontSystem>,
) {
for (entity, block, content_size, text_flags, computed, computed_target) in &mut text_query {
// Note: the ComputedTextBlock::needs_rerender bool is cleared in create_text_measure().
if computed_target.is_changed()
|| computed.needs_rerender()
|| text_flags.needs_measure_fn
|| content_size.is_added()
{
create_text_measure(
entity,
&fonts,
computed_target.scale_factor.into(),
text_reader.iter(entity),
block,
&mut text_pipeline,
content_size,
text_flags,
computed,
&mut font_system,
);
}
}
}
```
## Testing
I removed an alarming number of tests from the `layout` module but they
were mostly to do with the deleted camera synchronisation logic. The
remaining tests should all pass now.
The most relevant examples are `multiple_windows` and `split_screen`,
the behaviour of both should be unchanged from main.

## Objective
A major critique of Bevy at the moment is how boilerplatey it is to
compose (and read) entity hierarchies:
```rust
commands
.spawn(Foo)
.with_children(|p| {
p.spawn(Bar).with_children(|p| {
p.spawn(Baz);
});
p.spawn(Bar).with_children(|p| {
p.spawn(Baz);
});
});
```
There is also currently no good way to statically define and return an
entity hierarchy from a function. Instead, people often do this
"internally" with a Commands function that returns nothing, making it
impossible to spawn the hierarchy in other cases (direct World spawns,
ChildSpawner, etc).
Additionally, because this style of API results in creating the
hierarchy bits _after_ the initial spawn of a bundle, it causes ECS
archetype changes (and often expensive table moves).
Because children are initialized after the fact, we also can't count
them to pre-allocate space. This means each time a child inserts itself,
it has a high chance of overflowing the currently allocated capacity in
the `RelationshipTarget` collection, causing literal worst-case
reallocations.
We can do better!
## Solution
The Bundle trait has been extended to support an optional
`BundleEffect`. This is applied directly to World immediately _after_
the Bundle has fully inserted. Note that this is
[intentionally](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/16920)
_not done via a deferred Command_, which would require repeatedly
copying each remaining subtree of the hierarchy to a new command as we
walk down the tree (_not_ good performance).
This allows us to implement the new `SpawnRelated` trait for all
`RelationshipTarget` impls, which looks like this in practice:
```rust
world.spawn((
Foo,
Children::spawn((
Spawn((
Bar,
Children::spawn(Spawn(Baz)),
)),
Spawn((
Bar,
Children::spawn(Spawn(Baz)),
)),
))
))
```
`Children::spawn` returns `SpawnRelatedBundle<Children, L:
SpawnableList>`, which is a `Bundle` that inserts `Children`
(preallocated to the size of the `SpawnableList::size_hint()`).
`Spawn<B: Bundle>(pub B)` implements `SpawnableList` with a size of 1.
`SpawnableList` is also implemented for tuples of `SpawnableList` (same
general pattern as the Bundle impl).
There are currently three built-in `SpawnableList` implementations:
```rust
world.spawn((
Foo,
Children::spawn((
Spawn(Name::new("Child1")),
SpawnIter(["Child2", "Child3"].into_iter().map(Name::new),
SpawnWith(|parent: &mut ChildSpawner| {
parent.spawn(Name::new("Child4"));
parent.spawn(Name::new("Child5"));
})
)),
))
```
We get the benefits of "structured init", but we have nice flexibility
where it is required!
Some readers' first instinct might be to try to remove the need for the
`Spawn` wrapper. This is impossible in the Rust type system, as a tuple
of "child Bundles to be spawned" and a "tuple of Components to be added
via a single Bundle" is ambiguous in the Rust type system. There are two
ways to resolve that ambiguity:
1. By adding support for variadics to the Rust type system (removing the
need for nested bundles). This is out of scope for this PR :)
2. Using wrapper types to resolve the ambiguity (this is what I did in
this PR).
For the single-entity spawn cases, `Children::spawn_one` does also
exist, which removes the need for the wrapper:
```rust
world.spawn((
Foo,
Children::spawn_one(Bar),
))
```
## This works for all Relationships
This API isn't just for `Children` / `ChildOf` relationships. It works
for any relationship type, and they can be mixed and matched!
```rust
world.spawn((
Foo,
Observers::spawn((
Spawn(Observer::new(|trigger: Trigger<FuseLit>| {})),
Spawn(Observer::new(|trigger: Trigger<Exploded>| {})),
)),
OwnerOf::spawn(Spawn(Bar))
Children::spawn(Spawn(Baz))
))
```
## Macros
While `Spawn` is necessary to satisfy the type system, we _can_ remove
the need to express it via macros. The example above can be expressed
more succinctly using the new `children![X]` macro, which internally
produces `Children::spawn(Spawn(X))`:
```rust
world.spawn((
Foo,
children![
(
Bar,
children![Baz],
),
(
Bar,
children![Baz],
),
]
))
```
There is also a `related!` macro, which is a generic version of the
`children!` macro that supports any relationship type:
```rust
world.spawn((
Foo,
related!(Children[
(
Bar,
related!(Children[Baz]),
),
(
Bar,
related!(Children[Baz]),
),
])
))
```
## Returning Hierarchies from Functions
Thanks to these changes, the following pattern is now possible:
```rust
fn button(text: &str, color: Color) -> impl Bundle {
(
Node {
width: Val::Px(300.),
height: Val::Px(100.),
..default()
},
BackgroundColor(color),
children![
Text::new(text),
]
)
}
fn ui() -> impl Bundle {
(
Node {
width: Val::Percent(100.0),
height: Val::Percent(100.0),
..default(),
},
children![
button("hello", BLUE),
button("world", RED),
]
)
}
// spawn from a system
fn system(mut commands: Commands) {
commands.spawn(ui());
}
// spawn directly on World
world.spawn(ui());
```
## Additional Changes and Notes
* `Bundle::from_components` has been split out into
`BundleFromComponents::from_components`, enabling us to implement
`Bundle` for types that cannot be "taken" from the ECS (such as the new
`SpawnRelatedBundle`).
* The `NoBundleEffect` trait (which implements `BundleEffect`) is
implemented for empty tuples (and tuples of empty tuples), which allows
us to constrain APIs to only accept bundles that do not have effects.
This is critical because the current batch spawn APIs cannot efficiently
apply BundleEffects in their current form (as doing so in-place could
invalidate the cached raw pointers). We could consider allocating a
buffer of the effects to be applied later, but that does have
performance implications that could offset the balance and value of the
batched APIs (and would likely require some refactors to the underlying
code). I've decided to be conservative here. We can consider relaxing
that requirement on those APIs later, but that should be done in a
followup imo.
* I've ported a few examples to illustrate real-world usage. I think in
a followup we should port all examples to the `children!` form whenever
possible (and for cases that require things like SpawnIter, use the raw
APIs).
* Some may ask "why not use the `Relationship` to spawn (ex:
`ChildOf::spawn(Foo)`) instead of the `RelationshipTarget` (ex:
`Children::spawn(Spawn(Foo))`)?". That _would_ allow us to remove the
`Spawn` wrapper. I've explicitly chosen to disallow this pattern.
`Bundle::Effect` has the ability to create _significant_ weirdness.
Things in `Bundle` position look like components. For example
`world.spawn((Foo, ChildOf::spawn(Bar)))` _looks and reads_ like Foo is
a child of Bar. `ChildOf` is in Foo's "component position" but it is not
a component on Foo. This is a huge problem. Now that `Bundle::Effect`
exists, we should be _very_ principled about keeping the "weird and
unintuitive behavior" to a minimum. Things that read like components
_should be the components they appear to be".
## Remaining Work
* The macros are currently trivially implemented using macro_rules and
are currently limited to the max tuple length. They will require a
proc_macro implementation to work around the tuple length limit.
## Next Steps
* Port the remaining examples to use `children!` where possible and raw
`Spawn` / `SpawnIter` / `SpawnWith` where the flexibility of the raw API
is required.
## Migration Guide
Existing spawn patterns will continue to work as expected.
Manual Bundle implementations now require a `BundleEffect` associated
type. Exisiting bundles would have no bundle effect, so use `()`.
Additionally `Bundle::from_components` has been moved to the new
`BundleFromComponents` trait.
```rust
// Before
unsafe impl Bundle for X {
unsafe fn from_components<T, F>(ctx: &mut T, func: &mut F) -> Self {
}
/* remaining bundle impl here */
}
// After
unsafe impl Bundle for X {
type Effect = ();
/* remaining bundle impl here */
}
unsafe impl BundleFromComponents for X {
unsafe fn from_components<T, F>(ctx: &mut T, func: &mut F) -> Self {
}
}
```

# Objective
Solves https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/17747.
## Solution
- Adds an example for creating a default value for Local.
## Testing
- Example code compiles and passes assertions.
This pr uses the `extern crate self as` trick to make proc macros behave
the same way inside and outside bevy.
# Objective
- Removes noise introduced by `crate as` in the whole bevy repo.
- Fixes#17004.
- Hardens proc macro path resolution.
## TODO
- [x] `BevyManifest` needs cleanup.
- [x] Cleanup remaining `crate as`.
- [x] Add proper integration tests to the ci.
## Notes
- `cargo-manifest-proc-macros` is written by me and based/inspired by
the old `BevyManifest` implementation and
[`bkchr/proc-macro-crate`](https://github.com/bkchr/proc-macro-crate).
- What do you think about the new integration test machinery I added to
the `ci`?
More and better integration tests can be added at a later stage.
The goal of these integration tests is to simulate an actual separate
crate that uses bevy. Ideally they would lightly touch all bevy crates.
## Testing
- Needs RA test
- Needs testing from other users
- Others need to run at least `cargo run -p ci integration-test` and
verify that they work.

Didn't remove WgpuWrapper. Not sure if it's needed or not still.
## Testing
- Did you test these changes? If so, how? Example runner
- Are there any parts that need more testing? Web (portable atomics
thingy?), DXC.
## Migration Guide
- Bevy has upgraded to [wgpu
v24](https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/blob/trunk/CHANGELOG.md#v2400-2025-01-15).
- When using the DirectX 12 rendering backend, the new priority system
for choosing a shader compiler is as follows:
- If the `WGPU_DX12_COMPILER` environment variable is set at runtime, it
is used
- Else if the new `statically-linked-dxc` feature is enabled, a custom
version of DXC will be statically linked into your app at compile time.
- Else Bevy will look in the app's working directory for
`dxcompiler.dll` and `dxil.dll` at runtime.
- Else if they are missing, Bevy will fall back to FXC (not recommended)
