What is the purpose of the ComponentEditorRegistry wrapper?

The ComponentEditorRegistry.DrawComponent wrapper ensures every component editor has a consistent visual style, including collapsible tree nodes, standardized padding, and a built-in remove component button.

How does the toolkit handle vector properties like Position or Scale?

It uses the VectorPanel utility which provides specific methods for Vector2 and Vector3, featuring color-coded axis buttons (X=Red, Y=Green, Z=Blue) and support for default reset values.

What is the recommended pattern for modifying component data?

The toolkit recommends the 'Copy-Modify-Assign' pattern: copy the value to a temporary variable, modify it via the UI control, check if it differs from the original, and then assign it back to the component.

How are new component editors integrated into the engine?

Editors are registered in the Dependency Injection (DI) container as singletons and then added to the ComponentEditorRegistry dictionary to be automatically rendered in the Properties panel.

游戏开发

Simplifies the creation of ECS component editors using standardized UI patterns, property rendering utilities, and change detection logic.

关于

The ECS Component Editor Toolkit provides a specialized framework for building property editors within a custom game engine. It guides developers through implementing the IComponentEditor interface, utilizing the ComponentEditorRegistry for consistent UI framing, and leveraging specialized tools like VectorPanel for axis-colored vector inputs. This skill ensures that all component editors follow the engine's architectural requirements, including dependency injection registration and the Copy-Modify-Assign pattern for robust state management.
