ScriptComponent stores only a script name string (POD, serializable);
instances are reconciled by ScriptRuntime each frame (PhysicsWorld
pattern): orphan/rename cleanup with OnDestroy, per-name instantiation
from a file-level self-registering registry (ENGINE_REGISTER_SCRIPT),
OnCreate on bind, OnUpdate after physics step on scaled dt. Engine
framerate loop only sees the base interface, so future Lua/C# behaviors
plug in as foreign ScriptBehavior implementations with zero engine
changes. Ships a Spinner sample script and Inspector script picker.
- JointComponent: type, target UUID, per-body local anchors, hinge axis
+ angle limits (data only, zero Jolt deps)
- PhysicsWorld::SyncConstraints: create/remove/rebuild on snapshot
change; body rebuild contagion via invalidated-bits list; target
resolved lazily by UUID each sync (no two-pass load needed)
- Jolt FixedConstraint/HingeConstraint/PointConstraint in
LocalToBodyCOM space (anchors minus shape COM); fixed frames lock
creation-time relative pose; hinge axis aligned across bodies
- Inspector: Joint section with target entity name dropdown
- Serialization: Joint map with UUID target, as<T> fallbacks
yaml-cpp master hardens zombie nodes: operator=, size(), Type() and
chained operator[] all throw InvalidNode instead of silently passing.
Storing per-component nodes via Node::operator= threw for every key
that was absent, so all 7 entities were skipped on load (0 loaded).
Reads are now level-by-level guarded (copy-init + IsDefined), which
only uses the safe surface (as<T>(fallback), begin(), IsDefined).
Save side switched from node-tree streaming to a manual Emitter:
vector/quat fields emit as single-line flow arrays ([0, 1.2, -6])
and model refs as inline maps, with 9-digit float precision for
lossless float32 round-trips.
Verified offline against the previously saved scene: 7/7 entities
parse with correct component counts; emitter output round-trips.
Engine-layer SceneSerializer (yaml-cpp submodule): entities/components
to versioned YAML, atomic clear-and-rebuild on load with per-entity
fault tolerance, missing-field defaults, unknown-component skip and
UUID dedup. Asset references are {Guid, Path} pairs resolved through
the new AssetManager GUID registry (assets/asset_registry.yaml) with
path fallback; procedural:// pseudo-paths rebuild from parameters.
Editor File menu gets Save/Load Scene modals; app re-resolves stale
entity handles via onSceneLoaded callback.
