ECS Nooby question

Unity Engine

Hello I’m Stefana and I’m really confused about a API change for ECS… I never had this warning come up until I updated ECS package.

Ignoring invalid [UpdateAfter] dependency for NewBehaviourScript: UnityEngine.Experimental.PlayerLoop.FixedUpdate must be a member of the same ComponentSystemGroup.

I just want to fix this warning and move on as it skips the OnUpdate completely

You can’t use [UpdateAfter(typeof(UnityEngine.Experimental.PlayerLoop.FixedUpdate))] coz UnityEngine.Experimental.PlayerLoop.FixedUpdate not derive ComponentSystemGroup. PlayerLoop changed. I recommend you read the docs:
https://docs.unity3d.com/Packages/com.unity.entities@0.0/manual/system_update_order.html

Hey I read the whole page, can you give me an example of how I can use FixedUpdate in ECS? I really would appreciate that

  • I read the page earlier, I just dont think my brain is that advanced- .-

Put systems which should run from FU in one of your own group and call update for this group from FU.

Hey I dont know anything how to do that I tried numerous things… Do I use UpdateBefore(typeof(FixedUpdate)) at all anymore? I’m so confused sorry:(

Way to Unknown is nostalgia I will download it tonight, is it made using ecs?

No. It’s my ugly old game. Elinor is ECS based game.https://forum.unity.com/threads/unity-ecs-and-job-system-in-production.561229

No. Now you should use ComponentSystemGroup and\or systems types for UpdateBefore\After

You probably don’t realize how confusing it is to me lol. Can you write in C# an example of what I got: I have no understanding of ComponentSystemGroup its not clicking to me -.-

[UpdateBefore(typeof(PostLateUpdate))]
class _LateUpdate_ : ComponentSystem
{
    protected override void OnUpdate ()
    {

    }
}

Oh ok well it looks satisfying… Great presentation at least :slight_smile:

Wow that is F***** amazing. Please tell me its going to be on steam at some point in the future? you should add leaderboard support or something to make players who enjoy social games play it. A team I worked for in 2015 released a horror mobile game that did really well on android.
