Scenes are implemented as +derivative classes of Scene, which are added to the game using the SceneManager. +Scenes describe the start of a Scene and cannot modify GameObjects during +runtime of a Scene (use \ref feature_script for this purpose). + +\see SceneManager +\see GameObject +\see Script +\see Scene + +\par Example + +This example demonstrates how to define and add scenes to the loop/scene manager +in the `crepe` framework. Each concrete scene should be derived from Scene. In +the example below, the concrete scene is named MyScene. A concrete scene should, +at least, implement (override) two methods, namely load_scene() and get_name(). +The scene is build (using GameObjects) in the load_scene() method. GameObjects +should be made using the component_manager::new_object(). + +In the example below, two GameObjects (named object1 and object2) are added to +MyScene. object1 and object2 do not have any non-default Components attached to +them, however, if needed, this should also be done in load_scene(). Each +concrete scene must have a unique name. This unique name is used to load a new +concrete scene (via a Script). The unique name is set using the get_name() +method. In the example below, MyScene's unique name is my_scene. + +After setting up one or more concrete scene(s), the concrete scene(s) should be +added to the loop/scene manager. This is done in your main(). Firstly, the +LoopManager should be instantiated. Than, all the concrete scene(s) should be +added to the loop/scene manger via loop_mgr::add_scene<>(). The templated +argument should define the concrete scene to be added. + +```cpp +#include <crepe/api/LoopManager.h> +#include <crepe/api/GameObject.h> +#include <crepe/api/Scene.h> +#include <crepe/types.h> + +using namespace crepe; + +class MyScene : public Scene { +public: + void load_scene() { + ComponentManager & mgr = this->component_manager; + GameObject object1 = mgr.new_object("object1", "tag_my_scene", vec2{0, 0}, 0, 1); + GameObject object2 = mgr.new_object("object2", "tag_my_scene", vec2{1, 0}, 0, 1); + } + + string get_name() const { return "my_scene"; } +}; + +int main() { + LoopManager loop_mgr; + + // Add the scenes to the loop manager + loop_mgr.add_scene<MyScene>(); + + loop_mgr.start(); +} +``` + +*/ +} |
