# Objective Getting access to the original target of an entity-event is really helpful when working with bubbled / propagated events. `bevy_picking` special-cases this, but users have requested this for all sorts of bubbled events. The existing naming convention was also very confusing. Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/17112, but also see #18982. ## Solution 1. Rename `ObserverTrigger::target` -> `current_target`. 1. Store `original_target: Option<Entity>` in `ObserverTrigger`. 1. Wire it up so this field gets set correctly. 1. Remove the `target` field on the `Pointer` events from `bevy_picking`. Closes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/18710, which attempted the same thing. Thanks @emfax! ## Testing I've modified an existing test to check that the entities returned during event bubbling / propagation are correct. ## Notes to reviewers It's a little weird / sad that you can no longer access this infromation via the buffered events for `Pointer`. That said, you already couldn't access any bubbled target. We should probably remove the `BufferedEvent` form of `Pointer` to reduce confusion and overhead, but I didn't want to do so here. Observer events can be trivially converted into buffered events (write an observer with an EventWriter), and I suspect that that is the better migration if you want the controllable timing or performance characteristics of buffered events for your specific use case. ## Future work It would be nice to not store this data at all (and not expose any methods) if propagation was disabled. That involves more trait shuffling, and I don't think we should do it here for reviewability. --------- Co-authored-by: Joona Aalto <jondolf.dev@gmail.com> |
