Bevy Rhythm (thin router)

Genre router. Domain work lives in the Bevy skills below.

When to use

Load this for chart time and hit windows aligned to audio.

ECS shape

• Components hold the genre's per-entity flags as plain data. This file does not name new engine types.
• Resources hold run-wide counters (score, wave index, seed) via bevy-data-resources.
• Systems read those components on Update or the fixed timestep from bevy-master. Order them with .chain() when a later system must see the result.
• Schedule: gameplay mode changes go through bevy-state-machines. This file registers only the chart clock and the hit judge.

Routing

• bevy-audio-systems - Music playback.
• bevy-input-handling - Hits.
• bevy-game-loop-time-trial - Score time.

Scope

Chart notes, the song clock, and hit windows live here. Playback, input devices, and score presentation stay in the skills linked above.

Expert Knowledge Delta

Target: Bevy 0.20+.

Core ECS types: Component, Resource, Query, Commands, Startup, Update, Fixed / FixedMain (bevy::time), .chain(), Plugin, DefaultPlugins, MinimalPlugins. Messages and observers are an ownership slot. See bevy-events-messaging for their APIs. Systems run in parallel unless .chain() orders the ones that conflict.

Who owns state

Borrow rule: two systems that both mutably query the same component must be ordered (.chain()) or split so only one writes. Unrelated systems stay parallel. That is the ECS page rule, not a guess at a system-set API.

Decision

Load references/ecs-ownership.md for the ownership table.

NEVER

• Do not pin /0.20.0/ in docs URLs. WHY: links stay on latest; the 0.20 target is stated once in prose.
• Do not mutably query the same component from two unordered systems. WHY: the schedule runs systems in parallel unless .chain() orders them.
• Do not invent a physics, navigation, networking, or XR crate here. WHY: this skill only names documented Bevy crates and modules.

• Do not treat every press inside the wide window as perfect. WHY: the tight window writes grade 2 and the wide window writes grade 1.
• No invented genre APIs. WHY: Bevy code stays idiomatic ECS and uses only documented Bevy APIs.
• Do not pick a physics or net crate here. WHY: Bevy code stays idiomatic ECS and uses only documented Bevy APIs.

Reference

The library pin on bevy-master stays 0.20.0. Official pages stay on the unversioned site.
