# Objective
There are two problems this aims to solve.
First, `Entity::index` is currently a `u32`. That means there are
`u32::MAX + 1` possible entities. Not only is that awkward, but it also
make `Entity` allocation more difficult. I discovered this while working
on remote entity reservation, but even on main, `Entities` doesn't
handle the `u32::MAX + 1` entity very well. It can not be batch reserved
because that iterator uses exclusive ranges, which has a maximum upper
bound of `u32::MAX - 1`. In other words, having `u32::MAX` as a valid
index can be thought of as a bug right now. We either need to make that
invalid (this PR), which makes Entity allocation cleaner and makes
remote reservation easier (because the length only needs to be u32
instead of u64, which, in atomics is a big deal), or we need to take
another pass at `Entities` to make it handle the `u32::MAX` index
properly.
Second, `TableRow`, `ArchetypeRow` and `EntityIndex` (a type alias for
u32) all have `u32` as the underlying type. That means using these as
the index type in a `SparseSet` uses 64 bits for the sparse list because
it stores `Option<IndexType>`. By using `NonMaxU32` here, we cut the
memory of that list in half. To my knowledge, `EntityIndex` is the only
thing that would really benefit from this niche. `TableRow` and
`ArchetypeRow` I think are not stored in an `Option` in bulk. But if
they ever are, this would help. Additionally this ensures
`TableRow::INVALID` and `ArchetypeRow::INVALID` never conflict with an
actual row, which in a nice bonus.
As a related note, if we do components as entities where `ComponentId`
becomes `Entity`, the the `SparseSet<ComponentId>` will see a similar
memory improvement too.
## Solution
Create a new type `EntityRow` that wraps `NonMaxU32`, similar to
`TableRow` and `ArchetypeRow`.
Change `Entity::index` to this type.
## Downsides
`NonMax` is implemented as a `NonZero` with a binary inversion. That
means accessing and storing the value takes one more instruction. I
don't think that's a big deal, but it's worth mentioning.
As a consequence, `to_bits` uses `transmute` to skip the inversion which
keeps it a nop. But that also means that ordering has now flipped. In
other words, higher indices are considered less than lower indices. I
don't think that's a problem, but it's also worth mentioning.
## Alternatives
We could keep the index as a u32 type and just document that `u32::MAX`
is invalid, modifying `Entities` to ensure it never gets handed out.
(But that's not enforced by the type system.) We could still take
advantage of the niche here in `ComponentSparseSet`. We'd just need some
unsafe manual conversions, which is probably fine, but opens up the
possibility for correctness problems later.
We could change `Entities` to fully support the `u32::MAX` index. (But
that makes `Entities` more complex and potentially slightly slower.)
## Testing
- CI
- A few tests were changed because they depend on different ordering and
`to_bits` values.
## Future Work
- It might be worth removing the niche on `Entity::generation` since
there is now a different niche.
- We could move `Entity::generation` into it's own type too for clarity.
- We should change `ComponentSparseSet` to take advantage of the new
niche. (This PR doesn't change that yet.)
- Consider removing or updating `Identifier`. This is only used for
`Entity`, so it might be worth combining since `Entity` is now more
unique.

# Objective
Provide a generic `impl SystemParam for Option<P>` that uses system
parameter validation. This immediately gives useful impls for params
like `EventReader` and `GizmosState` that are defined in terms of `Res`.
It also allows third-party system parameters to be usable with `Option`,
which was previously impossible due to orphan rules.
Note that this is a behavior change for `Option<Single>`. It currently
fails validation if there are multiple matching entities, but with this
change it will pass validation and produce `None`.
Also provide an impl for `Result<P, SystemParamValidationError>`. This
allows systems to inspect the error if necessary, either for bubbling it
up or for checking the `skipped` flag.
Fixes#12634Fixes#14949
Related to #18516
## Solution
Add generic `SystemParam` impls for `Option` and `Result`, and remove
the impls for specific types.
Update documentation and `fallible_params` example with the new
semantics for `Option<Single>`.
# Objective
Fixes a part of #14274.
Bevy has an incredibly inconsistent naming convention for its system
sets, both internally and across the ecosystem.
<img alt="System sets in Bevy"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/d16e2027-793f-4ba4-9cc9-e780b14a5a1b"
width="450" />
*Names of public system set types in Bevy*
Most Bevy types use a naming of `FooSystem` or just `Foo`, but there are
also a few `FooSystems` and `FooSet` types. In ecosystem crates on the
other hand, `FooSet` is perhaps the most commonly used name in general.
Conventions being so wildly inconsistent can make it harder for users to
pick names for their own types, to search for system sets on docs.rs, or
to even discern which types *are* system sets.
To reign in the inconsistency a bit and help unify the ecosystem, it
would be good to establish a common recommended naming convention for
system sets in Bevy itself, similar to how plugins are commonly suffixed
with `Plugin` (ex: `TimePlugin`). By adopting a consistent naming
convention in first-party Bevy, we can softly nudge ecosystem crates to
follow suit (for types where it makes sense to do so).
Choosing a naming convention is also relevant now, as the [`bevy_cli`
recently adopted
lints](https://github.com/TheBevyFlock/bevy_cli/pull/345) to enforce
naming for plugins and system sets, and the recommended naming used for
system sets is still a bit open.
## Which Name To Use?
Now the contentious part: what naming convention should we actually
adopt?
This was discussed on the Bevy Discord at the end of last year, starting
[here](<https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/692572690833473578/1310659954683936789>).
`FooSet` and `FooSystems` were the clear favorites, with `FooSet` very
narrowly winning an unofficial poll. However, it seems to me like the
consensus was broadly moving towards `FooSystems` at the end and after
the poll, with Cart
([source](https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/692572690833473578/1311140204974706708))
and later Alice
([source](https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/692572690833473578/1311092530732859533))
and also me being in favor of it.
Let's do a quick pros and cons list! Of course these are just what I
thought of, so take it with a grain of salt.
`FooSet`:
- Pro: Nice and short!
- Pro: Used by many ecosystem crates.
- Pro: The `Set` suffix comes directly from the trait name `SystemSet`.
- Pro: Pairs nicely with existing APIs like `in_set` and
`configure_sets`.
- Con: `Set` by itself doesn't actually indicate that it's related to
systems *at all*, apart from the implemented trait. A set of what?
- Con: Is `FooSet` a set of `Foo`s or a system set related to `Foo`? Ex:
`ContactSet`, `MeshSet`, `EnemySet`...
`FooSystems`:
- Pro: Very clearly indicates that the type represents a collection of
systems. The actual core concept, system(s), is in the name.
- Pro: Parallels nicely with `FooPlugins` for plugin groups.
- Pro: Low risk of conflicts with other names or misunderstandings about
what the type is.
- Pro: In most cases, reads *very* nicely and clearly. Ex:
`PhysicsSystems` and `AnimationSystems` as opposed to `PhysicsSet` and
`AnimationSet`.
- Pro: Easy to search for on docs.rs.
- Con: Usually results in longer names.
- Con: Not yet as widely used.
Really the big problem with `FooSet` is that it doesn't actually
describe what it is. It describes what *kind of thing* it is (a set of
something), but not *what it is a set of*, unless you know the type or
check its docs or implemented traits. `FooSystems` on the other hand is
much more self-descriptive in this regard, at the cost of being a bit
longer to type.
Ultimately, in some ways it comes down to preference and how you think
of system sets. Personally, I was originally in favor of `FooSet`, but
have been increasingly on the side of `FooSystems`, especially after
seeing what the new names would actually look like in Avian and now
Bevy. I prefer it because it usually reads better, is much more clearly
related to groups of systems than `FooSet`, and overall *feels* more
correct and natural to me in the long term.
For these reasons, and because Alice and Cart also seemed to share a
preference for it when it was previously being discussed, I propose that
we adopt a `FooSystems` naming convention where applicable.
## Solution
Rename Bevy's system set types to use a consistent `FooSet` naming where
applicable.
- `AccessibilitySystem` → `AccessibilitySystems`
- `GizmoRenderSystem` → `GizmoRenderSystems`
- `PickSet` → `PickingSystems`
- `RunFixedMainLoopSystem` → `RunFixedMainLoopSystems`
- `TransformSystem` → `TransformSystems`
- `RemoteSet` → `RemoteSystems`
- `RenderSet` → `RenderSystems`
- `SpriteSystem` → `SpriteSystems`
- `StateTransitionSteps` → `StateTransitionSystems`
- `RenderUiSystem` → `RenderUiSystems`
- `UiSystem` → `UiSystems`
- `Animation` → `AnimationSystems`
- `AssetEvents` → `AssetEventSystems`
- `TrackAssets` → `AssetTrackingSystems`
- `UpdateGizmoMeshes` → `GizmoMeshSystems`
- `InputSystem` → `InputSystems`
- `InputFocusSet` → `InputFocusSystems`
- `ExtractMaterialsSet` → `MaterialExtractionSystems`
- `ExtractMeshesSet` → `MeshExtractionSystems`
- `RumbleSystem` → `RumbleSystems`
- `CameraUpdateSystem` → `CameraUpdateSystems`
- `ExtractAssetsSet` → `AssetExtractionSystems`
- `Update2dText` → `Text2dUpdateSystems`
- `TimeSystem` → `TimeSystems`
- `AudioPlaySet` → `AudioPlaybackSystems`
- `SendEvents` → `EventSenderSystems`
- `EventUpdates` → `EventUpdateSystems`
A lot of the names got slightly longer, but they are also a lot more
consistent, and in my opinion the majority of them read much better. For
a few of the names I took the liberty of rewording things a bit;
definitely open to any further naming improvements.
There are still also cases where the `FooSystems` naming doesn't really
make sense, and those I left alone. This primarily includes system sets
like `Interned<dyn SystemSet>`, `EnterSchedules<S>`, `ExitSchedules<S>`,
or `TransitionSchedules<S>`, where the type has some special purpose and
semantics.
## Todo
- [x] Should I keep all the old names as deprecated type aliases? I can
do this, but to avoid wasting work I'd prefer to first reach consensus
on whether these renames are even desired.
- [x] Migration guide
- [x] Release notes
# Objective
- Alternative to and builds on top of #16284.
- Fixes#15849.
## Solution
- Rename component `StateScoped` to `DespawnOnExitState`.
- Rename system `clear_state_scoped_entities` to
`despawn_entities_on_exit_state`.
- Add `DespawnOnEnterState` and `despawn_entities_on_enter_state` which
is the `OnEnter` equivalent.
> [!NOTE]
> Compared to #16284, the main change is that I did the rename in such a
way as to keep the terms `OnExit` and `OnEnter` together. In my own
game, I was adding `VisibleOnEnterState` and `HiddenOnExitState` and
when naming those, I kept the `OnExit` and `OnEnter` together. When I
checked #16284 it stood out to me that the naming was a bit awkward.
Putting the `State` in the middle and breaking up `OnEnter` and `OnExit`
also breaks searching for those terms.
## Open questions
1. Should we split `enable_state_scoped_entities` into two functions,
one for the `OnEnter` and one for the `OnExit`? I personally have zero
need thus far for the `OnEnter` version, so I'd be interested in not
having this enabled unless I ask for it.
2. If yes to 1., should we follow my lead in my `Visibility` state
components (see below) and name these
`app.enable_despawn_entities_on_enter_state()` and
`app.enable_despawn_entities_on_exit_state()`, which IMO says what it
does on the tin?
## Testing
Ran all changed examples.
## Side note: `VisibleOnEnterState` and `HiddenOnExitState`
For reference to anyone else and to help with the open questions, I'm
including the code I wrote for controlling entity visibility when a
state is entered/exited.

The LogPlugin now allows overriding the default
`tracing_subscriber::fmt::Layer` through a new `fmt_layer` option. This
enables customization of the default log output format without having to
replace the entire logging system.
For example, to disable timestamps in the log output:
```rust
fn fmt_layer(_app: &mut App) -> Option<bevy::log::BoxedFmtLayer> {
Some(Box::new(
bevy::log::tracing_subscriber::fmt::Layer::default()
.without_time()
.with_writer(std::io::stderr),
))
}
fn main() {
App::new()
.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(bevy::log::LogPlugin {
fmt_layer,
..default()
}))
.run();
}
```
This is different from the existing `custom_layer` option, because that
option _adds_ additional layers to the subscriber, but can't modify the
default formatter layer (at least, not to my knowledge).
I almost always disable timestamps in my Bevy logs, and usually also
tweak other default log formatting (such as `with_span_events`), which
made it so that I always had to disable the default logger. This allows
me to use everything the Bevy logger supports (including tracy support),
while still formatting the default logs the way I like them.

# Objective
Add a viewport widget.
## Solution
- Add a new `ViewportNode` component to turn a UI node into a viewport.
- Add `viewport_picking` to pass pointer inputs from other pointers to
the viewport's pointer.
- Notably, this is somewhat functionally different from the viewport
widget in [the editor
prototype](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy_editor_prototypes/pull/110/files#L124),
which just moves the pointer's location onto the render target. Viewport
widgets have their own pointers.
- Care is taken to handle dragging in and out of viewports.
- Add `update_viewport_render_target_size` to update the viewport node's
render target's size if the node size changes.
- Feature gate picking-related viewport items behind
`bevy_ui_picking_backend`.
## Testing
I've been using an example I made to test the widget (and added it as
`viewport_node`):

## Open Questions
- <del>Not sure whether the entire widget should be feature gated behind
`bevy_ui_picking_backend` or not? I chose a partial approach since maybe
someone will want to use the widget without any picking being
involved.</del>
- <del>Is `PickSet::Last` the expected set for `viewport_picking`?
Perhaps `PickSet::Input` is more suited.</del>
- <del>Can `dragged_last_frame` be removed in favor of a better dragging
check? Another option that comes to mind is reading `Drag` and `DragEnd`
events, but this seems messier.</del>

The occlusion culling plugin checks for a GPU feature by looking at
`RenderAdapter`. This is wrong - it should be checking `RenderDevice`.
See these notes for background:
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/18973
I don't have any evidence that this was causing any bugs, so right now
it's just a precaution.
## Testing
```
cargo run --example occlusion_culling
```
Tested on Win10/Nvidia across Vulkan, WebGL/Chrome, WebGPU/Chrome.
# Objective
- The tonemapping example allows using a local image to try out
different color grading. However, using a local file stopped working
when we added the `UnapprovedPathMode` setting to the assets plugin.
## Solution
- Set `unapproved_path_mode: UnapprovedPathMode::Allow` in the example
## Testing
- I tried out the example with local images, previously it would fail
saying it's an untrusted path.
# Objective
Refactor
[`examples/ui/borders.rs`](7f0490655c/examples/ui/borders.rs)
to use the new spawning/hierarchy APIs in 0.16.
## Solution
This refactor reduces the number of `.spawn` calls from about 16 to 2,
using one spawn for each major feature:
* camera2d
* ui layout
The `Children::spawn` relationship API is used to take advantage of
`SpawnIter` for the borders examples in each block.
Each block of examples now returns a Bundle into its respective
variable, which is then used in combination with the new `label` widget
which makes use of the new `impl Bundle` return capability. This allows
the ui layout to use a single `.spawn` with the `children!` macro.
The blocks of examples are still in separate variables because it felt
like a useful way to organize it still, even without needing to spawn at
those locations.
Functionality of the demo hasn't changed, this is just an API/code
update.

# Objective
Add background colors for text.
Fixes#18889
## Solution
New component `TextBackgroundColor`, add it to any UI `Text` or
`TextSpan` entity to add a background color to its text.
New field on `TextLayoutInfo` `section_rects` holds the list of bounding
rects for each text section.
The bounding rects are generated in `TextPipeline::queue_text` during
text layout, `extract_text_background_colors` extracts the colored
background rects for rendering.
Didn't include `Text2d` support because of z-order issues.
The section rects can also be used to implement interactions targeting
individual text sections.
## Testing
Includes a basic example that can be used for testing:
```
cargo run --example text_background_colors
```

## Showcase

Using a proportional font with kerning the results aren't so tidy (since
the bounds of adjacent glyphs can overlap) but it still works fine:

# Objective
Fixes#18316
## Solution
Add android:configChanges="orientation|screenSize" to the
AndroidManifest.xml as indicated in https://stackoverflow.com/a/3329486
to avoid the GameActivity from getting destroyed, making the app
stuck/crash.
## Testing
I checked the results in my phone and after adding the config change the
issue went away. The change is relatively trivial, so there shouldn't be
the need to make a lot more testing.
The purpose of the scene viewer is to load arbitrary glTF scenes, so
it's inconvenient if they have to be moved into the Bevy assets
directory first. Thus this patch switches the scene viewer to use
`UnapprovedPathMode::Allow`.

# Objective
The goal of `bevy_platform_support` is to provide a set of platform
agnostic APIs, alongside platform-specific functionality. This is a high
traffic crate (providing things like HashMap and Instant). Especially in
light of https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/18799, it
deserves a friendlier / shorter name.
Given that it hasn't had a full release yet, getting this change in
before Bevy 0.16 makes sense.
## Solution
- Rename `bevy_platform_support` to `bevy_platform`.
# Objective
Fixes#16896Fixes#17737
## Solution
Adds a new render phase, including all the new cold specialization
patterns, for wireframes. There's a *lot* of regrettable duplication
here between 3d/2d.
## Testing
All the examples.
## Migration Guide
- `WireframePlugin` must now be created with
`WireframePlugin::default()`.
PR #17898 disabled bindless support for `ExtendedMaterial`. This commit
adds it back. It also adds a new example, `extended_material_bindless`,
showing how to use it.
# Objective
Fixes#18678
## Solution
Moved the current `with_related` method to `with_relationships` and
added a new `with_related` that uses a bundle.
I'm not entirely sold on the name just yet, if anyone has any ideas let
me know.
## Testing
I wasn't able to test these changes because it crashed my computer every
time I tried (fun). But there don't seem to be any tests that use the
old `with_related` method so it should be fine, hopefully
## Showcase
```rust
commands.spawn_empty()
.with_related::<Relationship>(Name::new("Related thingy"))
.with_relationships(|rel| {
rel.spawn(Name::new("Second related thingy"));
});

## Objective
The `MotionBlur` component exposes renderer internals. Users shouldn't
have to deal with this.
```rust
MotionBlur {
shutter_angle: 1.0,
samples: 2,
#[cfg(all(feature = "webgl2", target_arch = "wasm32", not(feature = "webgpu")))]
_webgl2_padding: Default::default(),
},
```
## Solution
The renderer now uses a separate `MotionBlurUniform` struct for its
internals. `MotionBlur` no longer needs padding.
I was a bit unsure about the name `MotionBlurUniform`. Other modules use
a mix of `Uniform` and `Uniforms`.
## Testing
```
cargo run --example motion_blur
```
Tested on Win10/Nvidia across Vulkan, WebGL/Chrome, WebGPU/Chrome.
# Objective
Adopts / builds on top of #18435.
The `log_diagnostics` example has bit-rotted and accumulated multiple
issues:
- It didn't explain the ordering constraint on DefaultPlugins, as noted
by the original PR
- Apparently `AssetCountDiagnosticsPlugin` no longer exists (?!). I
couldn't figure out when or why it was removed, maybe it got missed in
Assets v2?
- The comments didn't explain what kind of info you get by the various
plugins, making you do work to figure it out
- ~As far as I can tell `RenderDiagnosticsPlugin` currently doesn't
register any diagnostics in the traditional sense, but is only focused
on rendering spans? At least it doesn't print anything extra when added
for me, so having it here is misleading.~ It didn't print anything
because there was nothing to render in this example
## Solution
- Make all plugins be commented in to prevent further bit-rot
- Remove reference to the missing plugin
- Add extra comments describing the diagnostics in more detail
- Add something to render so we get render diagnostics
## Testing
Run the example, see relevant diagnostics printed out
# Objective
In #17905 we swapped to a named field on `ChildOf` to help resolve
variable naming ambiguity of child vs parent (ex: `child_of.parent`
clearly reads as "I am accessing the parent of the child_of
relationship", whereas `child_of.0` is less clear).
Unfortunately this has the side effect of making initialization less
ideal. `ChildOf { parent }` reads just as well as `ChildOf(parent)`, but
`ChildOf { parent: root }` doesn't read nearly as well as
`ChildOf(root)`.
## Solution
Move back to `ChildOf(pub Entity)` but add a `child_of.parent()`
function and use it for all accesses. The downside here is that users
are no longer "forced" to access the parent field with `parent`
nomenclature, but I think this strikes the right balance.
Take a look at the diff. I think the results provide strong evidence for
this change. Initialization has the benefit of reading much better _and_
of taking up significantly less space, as many lines go from 3 to 1, and
we're cutting out a bunch of syntax in some cases.
Sadly I do think this should land in 0.16 as the cost of doing this
_after_ the relationships migration is high.
# Objective
Improve error messages for missing resources.
The default error handler currently prints the `Debug` representation of
the error type instead of `Display`. Most error types use
`#[derive(Debug)]`, resulting in a dump of the structure, but will have
a user-friendly message for `Display`.
Follow-up to #18593
## Solution
Change the default error handler to use `Display` instead of `Debug`.
Change `BevyError` to include the backtrace in the `Display` format in
addition to `Debug` so that it is still included.
## Showcase
Before:
```
Encountered an error in system `system_name`: SystemParamValidationError { skipped: false, message: "Resource does not exist", param: "bevy_ecs::change_detection::Res<app_name::ResourceType>" }
Encountered an error in system `other_system_name`: "String message with\nmultiple lines."
```
After
```
Encountered an error in system `system_name`: Parameter `Res<ResourceType>` failed validation: Resource does not exist
Encountered an error in system `other_system_name`: String message with
multiple lines.
```
# Objective
Unlike for their helper typers, the import paths for
`unique_array::UniqueEntityArray`, `unique_slice::UniqueEntitySlice`,
`unique_vec::UniqueEntityVec`, `hash_set::EntityHashSet`,
`hash_map::EntityHashMap`, `index_set::EntityIndexSet`,
`index_map::EntityIndexMap` are quite redundant.
When looking at the structure of `hashbrown`, we can also see that while
both `HashSet` and `HashMap` have their own modules, the main types
themselves are re-exported to the crate level.
## Solution
Re-export the types in their shared `entity` parent module, and simplify
the imports where they're used.
# Objective
- feature `shader_format_wesl` doesn't compile in Wasm
- once fixed, example `shader_material_wesl` doesn't work in WebGL2
## Solution
- remove special path handling when loading shaders. this seems like a
way to escape the asset folder which we don't want to allow, and can't
compile on android or wasm, and can't work on iOS (filesystem is rooted
there)
- pad material so that it's 16 bits. I couldn't get conditional
compilation to work in wesl for type declaration, it fails to parse
- the shader renders the color `(0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0)` when it's not a
polka dot. this renders as black on WebGPU/metal/..., and white on
WebGL2. change it to `(0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0)` so that it's black
everywhere
# Objective
- Fixes#18010.
## Solution
- Revert the offending PRs! These are #15481 and #18013. We now no
longer get an error if there are duplicate subassets.
- In theory we could untangle #18013 from #15481, but that may be
tricky, and may still introduce regressions. To avoid this worry (since
we're already in RC mode), I am just reverting both.
## Testing
- This is just a revert.
---
## Migration Guide
<Remove the migration guides for #15481 and #18013>
I will make a PR to the bevy_website repo after this is merged.
# Objective
- Fixes#18539
- Doc failed to build as an example `include_str!` an asset, but assets
are not available in the packaged crate
## Solution
- Don't `include_str!` the shader but read it at runtime
# Objective
Make it easier to short-circuit system parameter validation.
Simplify the API surface by combining `ValidationOutcome` with
`SystemParamValidationError`.
## Solution
Replace `ValidationOutcome` with `Result<(),
SystemParamValidationError>`. Move the docs from `ValidationOutcome` to
`SystemParamValidationError`.
Add a `skipped` field to `SystemParamValidationError` to distinguish the
`Skipped` and `Invalid` variants.
Use the `?` operator to short-circuit validation in tuples of system
params.
# Objective
Add sprite flipping to `testbed_2d`'s sprite scene
## Solution
Draw the sprite flipped in each axis and both axes.
Changed the sprite to the rectangular bevy banner with text and made the
images different colors.
## Testing
```

```

# Objective
When introduced, `Single` was intended to simply be silently skipped,
allowing for graceful and efficient handling of systems during invalid
game states (such as when the player is dead).
However, this also caused missing resources to *also* be silently
skipped, leading to confusing and very hard to debug failures. In
0.15.1, this behavior was reverted to a panic, making missing resources
easier to debug, but largely making `Single` (and `Populated`)
worthless, as they would panic during expected game states.
Ultimately, the consensus is that this behavior should differ on a
per-system-param basis. However, there was no sensible way to *do* that
before this PR.
## Solution
Swap `SystemParam::validate_param` from a `bool` to:
```rust
/// The outcome of system / system param validation,
/// used by system executors to determine what to do with a system.
pub enum ValidationOutcome {
/// All system parameters were validated successfully and the system can be run.
Valid,
/// At least one system parameter failed validation, and an error must be handled.
/// By default, this will result in1 a panic. See [crate::error] for more information.
///
/// This is the default behavior, and is suitable for system params that should *always* be valid,
/// either because sensible fallback behavior exists (like [`Query`] or because
/// failures in validation should be considered a bug in the user's logic that must be immediately addressed (like [`Res`]).
Invalid,
/// At least one system parameter failed validation, but the system should be skipped due to [`ValidationBehavior::Skip`].
/// This is suitable for system params that are intended to only operate in certain application states, such as [`Single`].
Skipped,
}
```
Then, inside of each `SystemParam` implementation, return either Valid,
Invalid or Skipped.
Currently, only `Single`, `Option<Single>` and `Populated` use the
`Skipped` behavior. Other params (like resources) retain their current
failing
## Testing
Messed around with the fallible_params example. Added a pair of tests:
one for panicking when resources are missing, and another for properly
skipping `Single` and `Populated` system params.
## To do
- [x] get https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/18454 merged
- [x] fix the todo!() in the macro-powered tuple implementation (please
help 🥺)
- [x] test
- [x] write a migration guide
- [x] update the example comments
## Migration Guide
Various system and system parameter validation methods
(`SystemParam::validate_param`, `System::validate_param` and
`System::validate_param_unsafe`) now return and accept a
`ValidationOutcome` enum, rather than a `bool`. The previous `true`
values map to `ValidationOutcome::Valid`, while `false` maps to
`ValidationOutcome::Invalid`.
However, if you wrote a custom schedule executor, you should now respect
the new `ValidationOutcome::Skipped` parameter, skipping any systems
whose validation was skipped. By contrast, `ValidationOutcome::Invalid`
systems should also be skipped, but you should call the
`default_error_handler` on them first, which by default will result in a
panic.
If you are implementing a custom `SystemParam`, you should consider
whether failing system param validation is an error or an expected
state, and choose between `Invalid` and `Skipped` accordingly. In Bevy
itself, `Single` and `Populated` now once again skip the system when
their conditions are not met. This is the 0.15.0 behavior, but stands in
contrast to the 0.15.1 behavior, where they would panic.

# Objective
There are two related problems here:
1. Users should be able to change the fallback behavior of *all*
ECS-based errors in their application by setting the
`GLOBAL_ERROR_HANDLER`. See #18351 for earlier work in this vein.
2. The existing solution (#15500) for customizing this behavior is high
on boilerplate, not global and adds a great deal of complexity.
The consensus is that the default behavior when a parameter fails
validation should be set based on the kind of system parameter in
question: `Single` / `Populated` should silently skip the system, but
`Res` should panic. Setting this behavior at the system level is a
bandaid that makes getting to that ideal behavior more painful, and can
mask real failures (if a resource is missing but you've ignored a system
to make the Single stop panicking you're going to have a bad day).
## Solution
I've removed the existing `ParamWarnPolicy`-based configuration, and
wired up the `GLOBAL_ERROR_HANDLER`/`default_error_handler` to the
various schedule executors to properly plumb through errors .
Additionally, I've done a small cleanup pass on the corresponding
example.
## Testing
I've run the `fallible_params` example, with both the default and a
custom global error handler. The former panics (as expected), and the
latter spams the error console with warnings 🥲
## Questions for reviewers
1. Currently, failed system param validation will result in endless
console spam. Do you want me to implement a solution for warn_once-style
debouncing somehow?
2. Currently, the error reporting for failed system param validation is
very limited: all we get is that a system param failed validation and
the name of the system. Do you want me to implement improved error
reporting by bubbling up errors in this PR?
3. There is broad consensus that the default behavior for failed system
param validation should be set on a per-system param basis. Would you
like me to implement that in this PR?
My gut instinct is that we absolutely want to solve 2 and 3, but it will
be much easier to do that work (and review it) if we split the PRs
apart.
## Migration Guide
`ParamWarnPolicy` and the `WithParamWarnPolicy` have been removed
completely. Failures during system param validation are now handled via
the `GLOBAL_ERROR_HANDLER`: please see the `bevy_ecs::error` module docs
for more information.

The `Anchor` component doesn't need to be a enum. The variants are just
mapped to `Vec2`s so it could be changed to a newtype with associated
const values, saving the space needed for the discriminator by the enum.
Also there was no benefit I think in hiding the underlying `Vec2`
representation of `Anchor`s.
Suggested by @atlv24.
Fixes#18459Fixes#18460
## Solution
Change `Anchor` to a struct newtyping a `Vec2`, and its variants into
associated constants.
## Migration Guide
The anchor component has been changed from an enum to a struct newtyping
a `Vec2`. The `Custom` variant has been removed, instead to construct a
custom `Anchor` use its tuple constructor:
```rust
Sprite {
anchor: Anchor(Vec2::new(0.25, 0.4)),
..default()
}

The other enum variants have been replaced with corresponding constants:
* `Anchor::BottomLeft` to `Anchor::BOTTOM_LEFT`

## Testing

# Objective
- ECS error handling is a lovely flagship feature for Bevy 0.16, all in
the name of reducing panics and encouraging better error handling
(#14275).
- Currently though, command and system error handling are completely
disjoint and use different mechanisms.
- Additionally, there's a number of distinct ways to set the
default/fallback/global error handler that have limited value. As far as
I can tell, this will be cfg flagged to toggle between dev and
production builds in 99.9% of cases, with no real value in more granular
settings or helpers.
- Fixes#17272
## Solution
- Standardize error handling on the OnceLock global error mechanisms
ironed out in https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/17215
- As discussed there, there are serious performance concerns there,
especially for commands
- I also think this is a better fit for the use cases, as it's truly
global
- Move from `SystemErrorContext` to a more general purpose
`ErrorContext`, which can handle observers and commands more clearly
- Cut the superfluous setter methods on `App` and `SubApp`
- Rename the limited (and unhelpful) `fallible_systems` example to
`error_handling`, and add an example of command error handling
## Testing
Ran the `error_handling` example.
## Notes for reviewers
- Do you see a clear way to allow commands to retain &mut World access
in the per-command custom error handlers? IMO that's a key feature here
(allowing the ad-hoc creation of custom commands), but I'm not sure how
to get there without exploding complexity.
- I've removed the feature gate on the default_error_handler: contrary
to @cart's opinion in #17215 I think that virtually all apps will want
to use this. Can you think of a category of app that a) is extremely
performance sensitive b) is fine with shipping to production with the
panic error handler? If so, I can try to gather performance numbers
and/or reintroduce the feature flag. UPDATE: see benches at the end of
this message.
- ~~`OnceLock` is in `std`: @bushrat011899 what should we do here?~~
- Do you have ideas for more automated tests for this collection of
features?
## Benchmarks
I checked the impact of the feature flag introduced: benchmarks might
show regressions. This bears more investigation. I'm still skeptical
that there are users who are well-served by a fast always panicking
approach, but I'm going to re-add the feature flag here to avoid
stalling this out.

# Objective
Currently, our picking backends are inconsistent:
- Mesh picking and sprite picking both have configurable opt in/out
behavior. UI picking does not.
- Sprite picking uses `SpritePickingCamera` and `Pickable` for control,
but mesh picking uses `RayCastPickable`.
- `MeshPickingPlugin` is not a part of `DefaultPlugins`.
`SpritePickingPlugin` and `UiPickingPlugin` are.
## Solution
- Add configurable opt in/out behavior to UI picking (defaults to opt
out).
- Replace `RayCastPickable` with `MeshPickingCamera` and `Pickable`.
- Remove `SpritePickingPlugin` and `UiPickingPlugin` from
`DefaultPlugins`.
## Testing
Ran some examples.
## Migration Guide
`UiPickingPlugin` and `SpritePickingPlugin` are no longer included in
`DefaultPlugins`. They must be explicitly added.
`RayCastPickable` has been replaced in favor of the `MeshPickingCamera`
and `Pickable` components. You should add them to cameras and entities,
respectively, if you have `MeshPickingSettings::require_markers` set to
`true`.

# Objective
On iOS:
- Allow `std` to do its runtime initialization.
- Avoid requiring the user to specify linked libraries and framework in
Xcode.
- Reduce the amount of work that `#[bevy_main]` does
- In the future we may also be able to eliminate the need for it on
Android, cc @daxpedda.
## Solution
We previously:
- Exposed an `extern "C" fn main_rs` entry point.
- Ran Cargo in a separate Xcode target as an external build system.
- Imported that as a dependency of `bevy_mobile_example.app`.
- Compiled a trampoline C file with Xcode that called `main_rs`.
- Linked that via. Xcode.
All of this is unnecessary; `rustc` is well capable of creating iOS
executables, the trick is just to place it at the correct location for
Xcode to understand it, namely `$TARGET_BUILD_DIR/$EXECUTABLE_PATH`
(places it in `bevy_mobile_example.app/bevy_mobile_example`).
Note: We might want to wait with the changes to `#[bevy_main]` until the
problem is resolved on Android too, to make the migration easier.
## Testing
Open the Xcode project, and build for an iOS target.

## Migration Guide
**If you have been building your application for iOS:**
Previously, the `#[bevy_main]` attribute created a `main_rs` entry point
that most Xcode templates were using to run your Rust code from C. This
was found to be unnecessary, as you can simply let Rust build your
application as a binary, and run that directly.
You have two options for dealing with this:
If you've added further C code and Xcode customizations, or it makes
sense for your use-case to continue link with Xcode, you can revert to
the old behaviour by adding `#[no_mangle] extern "C" main_rs() { main()
}` to your `main.rs`. Note that the old approach of linking a static
library prevents the Rust standard library from doing runtime
initialization, so certain functionality provided by `std` might be
unavailable (stack overflow handlers, stdout/stderr flushing and other
such functionality provided by the initialization routines).
The other, preferred option is to remove your "compile" and "link" build
phases, and instead replace it with a "run script" phase that invokes
`cargo build --bin ...`, and moves the built binary to the Xcode path
`$TARGET_BUILD_DIR/$EXECUTABLE_PATH`. An example of how to do this can
be viewed at [INSERT LINK TO UPDATED EXAMPLE PROJECT].
To make the debugging experience in Xcode nicer after this, you might
also want to consider either enabling `panic = "abort"` or to set a
breakpoint on the `rust_panic` symbol.
