Spend last week working on remote triggers for bevy_replicon.

Tried many approaches and finally satisfied with the implementation and public API.

Client triggers example:

app.add_client_trigger::<DummyEvent>(ChannelKind::Ordered)
    .add_observer(receive_events)
    .add_systems(Update, send_events.run_if(client_connected));

fn send_events(mut commands: Commands) {
    commands.client_trigger(DummyEvent);
}

fn receive_events(trigger: Trigger<FromClient<DummyEvent>>) {
    let FromClient { client_id, event } = trigger.event();
    info!("received event {event:?} from {client_id:?}");
}

Server triggers example:

app.add_server_trigger::<DummyEvent>(ChannelKind::Ordered)
    .add_observer(receive_events)
    .add_systems(Update, send_events.run_if(server_running));

fn send_events(mut commands: Commands) {
    commands.server_trigger(ToClients {
        mode: SendMode::Broadcast,
        event: DummyEvent,
    });
}

fn receive_events(trigger: Trigger<DummyEvent>) {
    info!("received event {:?} from server", trigger.event());
}

Observers are so nice, I use them in my game a lot and not having them networked was quite limiting.

After a review from second maintainer I will merge it and draft a new release 🙂

Bevy is a game engine written in Rust. It targets regular PCs, but thanks to it modularity, it's possible to port it to unusual platforms. These examples replaced the rendering with the one specific to GBA.

Post from @bushRAT in Discord:

Thanks to the ever growing support for no_std in Bevy, I'm now able to use Bevy on the GameBoy Advance! Using the current main branch (which will be included for 0.16!) you can use a crate like agb (and some boilerplate I'm hiding) to write GameBoy Advance games almost as easily as you would for any other Bevy platform. Systems, plugins, resources, queries, the gamepad input API, it all just works. See the attached ROM if you have a GameBoy Advance emulator handy, but I recommend the MGBA emulator as it can also show debug logs (yes, even all the logging just works)

If you have a real GBA or an FPGA console, the author will appreciate if you try :)

A long time ago, I owned a Motorola Droid 4 and Photon Q. Feeling so nostalgic now 🙂

The keyboard on this one is much better - it's full-sized, and the slider mechanism feels quite robust.

I was hoping this update would enable pure black mode (which looks awesome on the borderless display of the black model). But it turns out that feature was added in Android 14 😢

I really wish retro handhelds were supported by FOSS Android distros like LineageOS.

Still, I'm quite happy with the update. This time I decided to try Molla launcher and ES-DE 🙂

It's a crate for dynamic and contextual input mappings for Bevy, inspired by Unreal Engine Enhanced Input.

Actions now have a parameter that requires inputs to reset to zero before activation and continue consumption after context removal until they return to zero. This is very useful if you want to use the same input to toggle between contexts.

See the changelog for more details.
