TECS - Tiny Entity Component System

TECS is a lightweight Entity-Component-System (ECS) framework designed for simplicity and performance. It provides a minimalistic approach to managing entities and their associated components, enabling efficient design for games and other applications.

Features

• Entity Management: Base class for entities with unique identifiers.
• Component Interface: Define components that can be attached to entities.
• System Utilities: Extract and manage components attached to entities.

Installation

Add TECS to your project by including the TECS namespace and referencing the required files.

Usage Example

using System;
using TECS;

// Create a new player entity
Player player = new();

// Get components from the player entity
player.Components(out Position position, out Velocity velocity);

// Initialize components
position.X = 0;
position.Y = 0;
velocity.X = 1;
velocity.Y = 1;

// Update position based on velocity
position.X += velocity.X;
position.Y += velocity.Y;

// Print updated position
Console.WriteLine($"Player Position: X={position.X}, Y={position.Y}");

// Remove the velocity and position components
player.RemoveComponents<Velocity, Position>();

// Define an entity that attaches the components
public class Player : Entity;

// Define components
public class Position : IComponent
{
    public float X { get; set; }
    public float Y { get; set; }
}
public class Velocity : IComponent
{
    public float X { get; set; }
    public float Y { get; set; }
}
