enabled: boolean

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:647

Whether this component is active. Disabled components are skipped by ComponentUpdateSystem.

Component.enabled


entity: Entity

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:645

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

Component.entity

get activeCount(): number

Defined in: particles/src/ParticleEmitterComponent.ts:133

Number of currently alive particles.

number


get context(): EngineContext

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:660

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

EngineContext

Component.context


get isEmitting(): boolean

Defined in: particles/src/ParticleEmitterComponent.ts:128

Whether continuous emission is active.

boolean


get scene(): Scene

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:655

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.

Scene

Component.scene

_runCleanups(): void

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:697

Internal

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

protected addCleanup(fn): void

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:691

Register a cleanup function to run when this component is removed or destroyed.

() => void

void

Component.addCleanup


optional afterRestore(data, resolve): void

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:711

Called after onAdd() during save/load restoration. Apply state that depends on onAdd() having run.

emit(): void

Defined in: particles/src/ParticleEmitterComponent.ts:110

Start continuous emission at config.rate particles/sec.

void


optional fixedUpdate(dt): void

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:707

Called every fixed timestep by the built-in ComponentUpdateSystem.

void

Component.fixedUpdate


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

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:687

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

onAdd(): void

Defined in: particles/src/ParticleEmitterComponent.ts:185

Called when the component is added to an entity.

void

Component.onAdd


onDestroy(): void

Defined in: particles/src/ParticleEmitterComponent.ts:190

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

void

Component.onDestroy


optional onRemove(): void

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:701

Called when the component is removed from an entity.

void

Component.onRemove


serialize(): ParticleEmitterData | null

Defined in: particles/src/ParticleEmitterComponent.ts:137

Return a JSON-serializable snapshot of this component’s state. Used by the save system.

ParticleEmitterData | null

Component.serialize


protected service<T>(key): T

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:677

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.

Component.service


protected sibling<C>(cls): C

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:685

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.

C extends Component

stop(): void

Defined in: particles/src/ParticleEmitterComponent.ts:115

Stop continuous emission. Existing particles continue to their end of life.

void


optional update(dt): void

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:705

Called every frame by the built-in ComponentUpdateSystem.

number

void

Component.update


protected use<T>(key): T

Defined in: core/dist/index.d.ts:668

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.
