Class IsometricEntitySystem

An Excalibur System that updates entities of certain types. Systems are scene specific

Excalibur Systems currently require at least 1 Component type to operated

Multiple types are declared as a type union For example:

class MySystem extends System<ComponentA | ComponentB> {
  public readonly types = ['a', 'b'] as const;
  public readonly systemType = SystemType.Update;
  public update(entities: Entity<ComponentA | ComponentB>) {
     ...
  }
}

priority

priority: number = 99

System can execute in priority order, by default all systems are priority 0. Lower values indicated higher priority. For a system to execute before all other a lower priority value (-1 for example) must be set. For a system to execute after all other a higher priority value (10 for example) must be set.

Readonly systemType

systemType: Update = SystemType.Update

Determine whether the system is called in the SystemType.Update or the SystemType.Draw phase. Update is first, then Draw.

Readonly types

types: readonly ["ex.transform", "ex.isometricentity"] = ...

The types of entities that this system operates on For example ['transform', 'motion']
