Geese is a game event system for Rust, built to allow modular game engine design.

In Geese, a system is a struct with internal state and a collection of associated event handlers. Systems can raise events and react to events raised by other systems. Systems may also declare dependencies on other systems, which allow them to immutably borrow those systems during event processing. Geese automatically loads all system dependencies. Any struct can act as an event type, and any struct that implements GeeseSystem can act as a system type.

The following is an example of how to use Geese to load multiple dependent systems, and propogate events between them. The example creates a Geese context, and requests that system B be loaded. When flush_events is called, system A is loaded first (beause it is a dependency of B), and then system B is loaded. B receives the typed event, and responds by querying system A for some information.

```rust struct A;

impl A { pub fn answer(&self) -> bool { true } }

impl GeeseSystem for A { fn new(_: GeeseContextHandle) -> Self { Self } }

struct B { ctx: GeeseContextHandle }

impl B { fn test_answer(&mut self, event: &Arc) { event.store(self.ctx.system::().answer(), Ordering::Relaxed); } }

fn register(entry: &mut GeeseSystemData<Self>) {
    entry.dependency::<A>();

    entry.event(Self::test_answer);
}
