Remove components at runtime

Open randomPoison opened this issue 6 years ago • 2 comments

~~This issue is currently blocked by #27.~~

Allow the editor to request that an existing component be removed from an entity at runtime.

To do this, add a variant to IncomingMessage called RemoveComponent that specifies the ID of the component type (i.e. the user-provided name of the component) and the entity from which the component should be removed. It probably makes the most sense to add the logic for actually removing the component to WriteComponentSystem, since it already requests write access to the appropriate component storage.

I'm happy to answer any questions or provide mentorship for anyone who wants to take on this task 🙂

Hey @randomPoison I'm interested in contributing to the Amethyst editor project. Is this issue still worth doing? If so can I get some pointers on how to get started?

@pop Thanks for reaching out, any contributions would be much appreciated! I haven't worked on the editor in a while though, and I'm not sure what the current status of the project is. The best way to get an update would be to join the Discord server and ask around in the editor channel.

That being said, I'm pretty sure this ticket is still valid, and if you ask the folks in the Discord they'll probably say they're cool with you working on this 😁
