Scripts are implemented as derivative classes of Script, which are added to game objects using the BehaviorScript \ref Component "component". \todo This section is incomplete: - Utility functions to get components/events/etc inside script - How to listen for events - Extensions of script (keylistener) \see Script \see BehaviorScript \see GameObject \par Example First, define a class that inherits from Script. This class acts as an interface, and has two functions (\ref Script::init "\c init()" and \ref Script::update "\c update()"), which may be implemented (they are empty by default). From now on, this derivative class will be referred to as a *concrete script*. ```cpp #include #include class MyScript : public crepe::Script { void init() { // called once } void update() { // called on fixed update } }; ``` Concrete scripts can be instantiated and attached to \ref GameObject "game objects" using the BehaviorScript \ref Component "component". ```cpp using namespace crepe; GameObject obj = component_manager.new_object("name"); // create BehaviorScript instance BehaviorScript & behavior_script = obj.add_component(); // attach (and instantiate) MyScript to behavior_script behavior_script.set_script(); // the above can also be done in a single call for convenience: obj.add_component().set_script(); ``` */ }
