Readme

Inglorious Engine

The core orchestrator for the Inglorious Engine. This package provides a complete game loop, state management, and rendering pipeline in a single, cohesive unit. It is designed to be highly configurable and extensible, allowing you to build games with a functional, data-oriented approach.

Core Concepts

The @inglorious/engine package acts as the central hub that brings together all the engine's components. Its main responsibilities are:

Orchestrating the Game Loop: The Engine class manages the game loop, which is responsible for continuously updating the state and rendering the game. The loop can be configured to use different timing mechanisms, such as animationFrame or a fixed fps.
State Management: It leverages the @inglorious/store package to manage the game's state. It provides methods to start, stop, and update the state manager, processing a queue of events on each frame.
Integrating the Renderer: The engine is headless by design, but it can be configured with a renderer to display the game. The engine takes a renderer object in its configuration and integrates its systems and logic into the main game loop.
Dev Tools Integration: The engine automatically connects to a browser's dev tools for debugging and time-travel capabilities if devMode is enabled in the game's state.

Installation

npm install @inglorious/engine

API

`new Engine(gameConfig)`

Creates a new Engine instance.

Parameters:

gameConfig (object): The game-specific configuration. It is an object with the following properties:
- loop (object, optional): Configuration for the game loop.
  - type (string, optional): The type of loop to use (animationFrame or fixed). Defaults to animationFrame.
  - fps (number, optional): The target frames per second. Only used with the fixed loop type. Defaults to 60.
- systems (array, optional): An array of system objects, which define behaviors for the whole state.
- types (object, optional): A map of entity types.
- entities (object, optional): A map of initial entities.
- renderer (object, optional): A renderer entity responsible for drawing the game. It must implement getSystems() and init(engine) methods.

Returns:

A new Engine instance.

`engine.start()`

Starts the game loop, triggering the first update and render calls.

`engine.stop()`

Halts the game loop and cleans up any resources. This method also processes a final stop event to ensure a clean shutdown.

Basic Usage

Here is a complete example showing how to set up and run a game using the engine.
