LightSource

Defined in: lighting/src/LightSource.ts:25

A radial light centred on its entity’s Transform.worldPosition.

The radius and levelAt() contribution use world pixels. Transform scale does not resize the light; set radius when the gameplay radius changes.

Parameters

options

LightSourceOptions

Returns

LightSource

Overrides

Component.constructor

Properties

entity

entity: Entity

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:3217

Back-reference to the owning entity. Set by the engine when the component is added to an entity. Do not set manually.

Inherited from

Component.entity

inspectExclude?

static optional inspectExclude?: readonly string[]

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:3420

Own fields and getters the Inspector leaves out of this component’s reflected state. Use it for bulk data that is not worth a diagnostic copy — a parsed tilemap, a large lookup table. Lists merge down the class chain, so a subclass adds to its base class’s exclusions.

class TilemapComponent extends VisualComponent {
  static inspectExclude = ["data"];
}

Inherited from

Component.inspectExclude

---

updatePriority?

static optional updatePriority?: number

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:3407

Class-level default for updatePriority: every instance runs at this priority unless its own updatePriority is written. Undeclared = 0. Subclasses inherit their base class’s value unless they declare their own. Declare it on a component whose behavior depends on running after (or before) a sibling, so the entity that adds it does not have to control the add order.

class BoundsClamp extends Component {
  static updatePriority = 10; // after the follow that moves the camera
}

Inherited from

Component.updatePriority

Accessors

color

Get Signature

get color(): number

Defined in: lighting/src/LightSource.ts:77

RGB tint used by renderers that support coloured light.

Returns

number

Set Signature

set color(value): void

Defined in: lighting/src/LightSource.ts:81

Parameters

value

number

Returns

void

---

context

Get Signature

get context(): EngineContext

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:3272

Access the EngineContext from the entity’s scene. Throws if the entity is not in a scene.

Returns

EngineContext

Inherited from

Component.context

---

effectiveEnabled

Get Signature

get effectiveEnabled(): boolean

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:3242

Whether the component is actually running: enabled, on an active entity, and past onAdd. This is the state onEnable and onDisable track — read it when a method has to behave one way live and another way dormant.

Returns

boolean

Inherited from

Component.effectiveEnabled

---

enabled

Get Signature

get enabled(): boolean

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:3234

Whether this component runs. Disabled components are skipped by ComponentUpdateSystem.

Writing this fires onEnable / onDisable when the effective state changes — enabled && entity.isActive. A component disabled here stays disabled through a setActive(false) / setActive(true) cycle on its entity.

Returns

boolean

Set Signature

set enabled(value): void

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:3235

Parameters

value

boolean

Returns

void

Inherited from

Component.enabled

---

intensity

Get Signature

get intensity(): number

Defined in: lighting/src/LightSource.ts:66

Peak contribution at the light’s centre, from 0 to 1.

Returns

number

Set Signature

set intensity(value): void

Defined in: lighting/src/LightSource.ts:70

Parameters

value

number

Returns

void

---

position

Get Signature

get position(): Vec2

Defined in: lighting/src/LightSource.ts:45

Current world-space centre.

Returns

Vec2

---

radius

Get Signature

get radius(): number

Defined in: lighting/src/LightSource.ts:55

Radius in world pixels.

Returns

number

Set Signature

set radius(value): void

Defined in: lighting/src/LightSource.ts:59

Parameters

value

number

Returns

void

---

scene

Get Signature

get scene(): Scene

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:3267

Access the entity’s scene. Throws if the entity is not in a scene. Prefer this over threading through this.entity.scene in component code.

Returns

Scene

Inherited from

Component.scene

---

updatePriority

Get Signature

get updatePriority(): number

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:3260

Where this component runs among its siblings. ComponentUpdateSystem calls update / fixedUpdate on an entity’s components in ascending priority; equal priorities run in add order. Undeclared = 0, so a negative value runs before siblings that keep the default and a positive value runs after them. Writable at any time, before or after add(). Defaults to the class’s static updatePriority.

class Player extends Entity {
  setup() {
    this.add(new Mover());
    this.add(new Brain()).updatePriority = -1; // decides before Mover moves
  }
}

Returns

number

Set Signature

set updatePriority(value): void

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:3261

Parameters

value

number

Returns

void

Inherited from

Component.updatePriority

Methods

_applyEnabled()

_applyEnabled(effective): void

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:3355

Internal

Force an effective-enabled transition, firing the hook on a flip. Used by Entity for teardown, where enabled and the entity’s activeness both still read true.

Parameters

effective

boolean

Returns

void

Inherited from

Component._applyEnabled

---

_isTornDown()

_isTornDown(): boolean

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:3336

Internal

Internal: true once this component has been removed or its entity destroyed. Components are terminal — Entity.add uses this to reject re-attaching an instance whose cleanups and onDestroy already ran.

Returns

boolean

Inherited from

Component._isTornDown

---

_markTornDown()

_markTornDown(): void

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:3342

Internal

Internal: mark this component torn down. Called by Entity.remove() and Entity._performDestroy() after onDestroy runs.

Returns

void

Inherited from

Component._markTornDown

---

_refreshEnabled()

_refreshEnabled(): void

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:3348

Internal

Recompute effective enabled-ness from enabled and the entity’s activeness, firing the hook on a flip.

Returns

void

Inherited from

Component._refreshEnabled

---

_runCleanups()

_runCleanups(onError?): void

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:3323

Internal

Run and clear all registered cleanups. Called by Entity.remove() and Entity._performDestroy() before onDestroy.

Parameters

onError?

(error) => void

Returns

void

Inherited from

Component._runCleanups

---

addCleanup()

protected addCleanup(fn): void

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:3317

Register a cleanup function to run when this component is removed or destroyed, before onDestroy. Use it for what listen, listenScene and listenBus do not cover, such as an unsubscribe from a custom emitter.

Parameters

fn

() => void

Returns

void

Inherited from

Component.addCleanup

---

destroy()

destroy(): void

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:3329

End this component’s life on its own — the same as entity.remove(SomeClass), without having to name its own class from inside itself, which breaks under subclassing.

Returns

void

Inherited from

Component.destroy

---

fixedUpdate()?

optional fixedUpdate(dt): void

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:3392

Called every fixed timestep by the built-in ComponentUpdateSystem.

Parameters

dt

number

Fixed timestep in seconds, scaled by scene and entity timeScale.

Returns

void

Inherited from

Component.fixedUpdate

---

getPositionInto()

getPositionInto(out): Vec2Buffer

Defined in: lighting/src/LightSource.ts:50

Copy world coordinates into caller-owned scratch.

Parameters

out

Vec2Buffer

Returns

Vec2Buffer

---

listen()

protected listen<T>(entity, token, handler): void

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:3299

Subscribe to events on any entity, auto-unsubscribe on removal.

Type Parameters

T

T

Parameters

entity

Entity

token

EventToken<T>

handler

(data) => void

Returns

void

Inherited from

Component.listen

---

listenBus()

protected listenBus<K>(event, handler): void

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:3310

Subscribe to an engine EventBus event, auto-unsubscribe on removal. Throws when the entity is not in a scene, like listenScene.

Type Parameters

K

K extends keyof EngineEvents

Parameters

event

K

handler

(data) => void

Returns

void

Inherited from

Component.listenBus

---

listenScene()

protected listenScene<T>(token, handler): void

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:3305

Subscribe to scene-level events, auto-unsubscribe on removal. Handlers fire for bubbled entity events (entity = source) and scene.emit events (entity = undefined).

Type Parameters

T

T

Parameters

token

EventToken<T>

handler

(data, entity?) => void

Returns

void

Inherited from

Component.listenScene

---

onAdd()?

optional onAdd(): void

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:3363

Called when the component is added to an entity. Validate dependencies here — a service, a sibling component, a render layer — and throw when one is missing. The throw is attributed to this component, recorded in Inspector.getErrors().callbackErrors, and rethrown, so it reaches the caller of entity.add() unchanged.

Returns

void

Inherited from

Component.onAdd

---

onDestroy()

onDestroy(): void

Defined in: lighting/src/LightSource.ts:96

Called when the component is destroyed (entity destroyed or component removed).

Returns

void

Overrides

Component.onDestroy

---

onDisable()

onDisable(): void

Defined in: lighting/src/LightSource.ts:92

Called when the component stops being effectively enabled — enabled went false, the entity (or an ancestor) was deactivated, or the component is being removed or destroyed. Put live resources to sleep here; the component is reused afterwards, so do not free anything onEnable cannot rebuild.

Returns

void

Overrides

Component.onDisable

---

onEnable()

onEnable(): void

Defined in: lighting/src/LightSource.ts:87

Called when the component becomes effectively enabled — enabled is true and the entity is active. Fires right after onAdd() for a component added to an active entity, and again on every later flip. Bring live resources back online here (unpause a sound, show a display object, re-enable a physics body). Game-state reset does not belong here: the hook sees whatever state the component held while dormant.

Returns

void

Overrides

Component.onEnable

---

service()

protected service<T>(key): T

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:3289

Lazy proxy-based service resolution. Can be used at field-declaration time:

readonly input = this.service(InputManagerKey);

The actual resolution is deferred until first property access.

Type Parameters

T

T extends object

Parameters

key

ServiceKey<T>

Returns

T

Inherited from

Component.service

---

sibling()

protected sibling<C>(cls): C

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:3297

Lazy proxy-based sibling component resolution. Can be used at field-declaration time:

readonly anim = this.sibling(AnimatedSpriteComponent);

The actual resolution is deferred until first property access.

Type Parameters

C

C extends Component

Parameters

cls

ComponentClass<C>

Returns

C

Inherited from

Component.sibling

---

update()?

optional update(dt): void

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:3387

Called every frame by the built-in ComponentUpdateSystem.

Parameters

dt

number

Frame delta in seconds, scaled by scene and entity timeScale.

Returns

void

Inherited from

Component.update

---

use()

protected use<T>(key): T

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:3280

Resolve a service by key, cached after first lookup. Scene-scoped values (registered via scene._registerScoped) take precedence over engine scope. A key declared with scope: "scene" that falls back to engine scope emits a one-shot dev warning — almost always signals a missed beforeEnter hook.

Type Parameters

T

T

Parameters

key

ServiceKey<T>

Returns

T
