Game.Prefabs.PrefabUnlockedRequirement

Assembly: Assembly-CSharp
Namespace: Game.Prefabs

Type: struct

Base: System.ValueType, Unity.Entities.IBufferElementData

Summary:
A small ECS buffer element that holds a reference to another Entity used as an unlock requirement for a prefab. Instances of this struct are intended to be stored in a DynamicBuffer on a prefab entity to represent one prerequisite (another prefab or requirement entity) that must be satisfied/unlocked for the associated prefab to become available.

Fields

  • public Unity.Entities.Entity m_Requirement
    Holds the Entity that represents the unlock requirement. This is a raw ECS Entity handle — to inspect or operate on the referenced entity you must use the EntityManager or appropriate ECS APIs. Multiple PrefabUnlockedRequirement elements can be stored in a DynamicBuffer to represent a list of prerequisites.

Properties

  • None (this type is a plain buffer element struct; use fields directly)

Constructors

  • Implicit default constructor (value-type default)
    You can create instances with object initializer syntax: new PrefabUnlockedRequirement { m_Requirement = someEntity }

Methods

  • None (no methods defined)

Usage Example

using Unity.Entities;

// Add a requirement to a prefab entity (e.g. inside a SystemBase or using EntityManager)
Entity prefabEntity = /* the prefab entity */;
Entity requirementEntity = /* the entity that must be unlocked first */;

var buffer = EntityManager.GetBuffer<PrefabUnlockedRequirement>(prefabEntity);
buffer.Add(new PrefabUnlockedRequirement { m_Requirement = requirementEntity });

// Reading requirements:
var reqBuffer = EntityManager.GetBuffer<PrefabUnlockedRequirement>(prefabEntity);
foreach (var req in reqBuffer)
{
    Entity reqEntity = req.m_Requirement;
    // check EntityManager.Exists(reqEntity) or inspect components to evaluate the requirement
}

Notes: - This element is intended for use with Unity's DOTS/ECS DynamicBuffer system (DynamicBuffer). - Because m_Requirement is an Entity handle, ensure you check existence and component state via the ECS API rather than assuming a valid game object reference.
