Understanding ECS

Oxygengine is highly based on specs crate used for its ECS framework. You can get understanding of it by reading specs book and tutorials here: https://specs.amethyst.rs/docs/tutorials/

Installation

1. Make sure that you have latest node.js with npm tools installed (https://nodejs.org/)
2. Make sure that you have latest wasm-pack toolset installed (https://rustwasm.github.io/wasm-pack/installer/)
3. Make sure that you have latest oxygengine-ignite binary installed (cargo install oxygengine-ignite)

Teaser

Project Setup

Create Oxygen Engine project with oxygengine-ignite: bash cd /path/to/parent/ oxygengine-ignite new <project-name> Which will create default web game project using web-composite-game preset. Then you have to go to your project directory and run npm install to install all nodejs dependencies. You can create projects with different presets: - desktop-headless-game - typical server-like project without graphics. - hybrid-script-game - it's a web-composite-game with JavaScript scripting module to make prototyping with Oxygengine faster and easier. Please note that JS scripting compared to pure Rust version is slower so it's not a great idea to use it in a production-ready game with lots of entities and logic, it should only help to prototype a game systems that will be later rewritten in Rust for best optimization.

using: bash cd /path/to/parent/ oxygengine-ignite new <project-name> -p desktop-headless-game You can also tell it where to create project: bash oxygengine-ignite new <project-name> -d /path/to/parent/

Updating to new engine version: - reinstall oxygengine-ignite: bash cargo install oxygengine-ignite --forced OXY_UPDATE_PRESETS=1 oxygengine-ignite --help - update oxygengine version either in Cargo.toml or by calling: cargo update

Building for development and production

• Launch live development with hot reloading (app will be automatically recompiled in background): bash npm start
• Build production distribution (will be available in /dist folder): with debug symbols: bash npm run build optimized release mode: bash OXY_RELEASE=1 npm run build
• Build crate without of running dev env: bash cargo build
