Class BiomeTemplateSpawnContext

Namespace

Pinwheel.Vista

Assembly

Pinwheel.Vista.Runtime.dll

Passed to OnSpawnedFromBiomeTemplate(BiomeTemplate, BiomeTemplateSpawnContext) during a template spawn. Carries the runtime inputs (the owning VistaManager), acts as the collect sink for objects the biome cloned and now owns, and is the clone authority that keeps one clone per source asset across all receivers in the spawn (see GetOrCreateClone<TObject>(TObject, out bool)).

Remarks

The biome pushes its in-memory clones here (RegisterOwnedObject(Object)); the editor caller pulls and persists them beside the scene; at runtime the caller ignores them and the clones live in memory. This mirrors how a terrain tile reports owned objects via ITile.GetDataAssets() and only the editor-side factory writes assets. Purely runtime, no editor dependency, and no persistence details (target folder, undo) are exposed here, those live in the editor shell.

Constructors

BiomeTemplateSpawnContext(VistaManager)

Properties

manager

The manager that will own the spawned biome, or null.

ownedObjects

Objects the biome cloned and owns, in registration order, for the caller to persist.

Methods

GetOrCreateClone<TObject>(TObject, out bool)

Returns the clone this spawn already made for source, or instantiates one now and registers it as owned. Keyed by the source asset, so receivers that share an authored asset in the template end up sharing one clone, preserving the template's reference topology instead of exploding it into one clone per receiver. created tells the caller whether this call created the clone, so one time setup (naming, for example) runs exactly once and never rewrites what an earlier receiver did.

RegisterOwnedObject(Object)

Register an in-memory object the biome cloned and now owns. Null and duplicates are ignored. The caller persists these (editor) or discards them (runtime).
