Unity DOTS packages and samples—featuring ECS, jobs and the Burst compiler—by me, Reese.

This project is a UPM package monorepo that supports my demos, including:

1. Nav - DOTS navigation with auto-jumping agents and movable surfaces.
2. Spawning - Generic DOTS runtime spawning for any combination of prefab, components, and buffers.
3. Randomization - Unity.Mathematics.Random number generators in jobs, including Burst-capable ones.

These packages all use ubump to automate their SemVer-bumping needs, including committing, pushing, tagging, changelog generation and subtree splitting so each package can be imported stand-alone with Git.

And why a monorepo? Because juggling multiple Unity projects with different configurations is annoying. Plus, if I have to update one thing, it forces me to consider updating or removing other things. Centralizing configuration—while distributing stand-alone packages—works best for me personally. The alternative would be a sprawling mishmash of disproportionately maintained projects.

Here's how my articles on reeseschultz.com relate to samples in this project:

The DOTS navigation scripts and demos are self-contained so you can use them in your project.

⇒ Assets/Scenes/Nav/NavMovingJumpDemo.unity.

⇒ Assets/Scenes/Nav/NavPerformanceDemo.unity.

⇒ Assets/Scenes/Nav/NavPointAndClickDemo.unity.

⇒ Assets/Scenes/PointAndClickDemo.unity.

⇒ Assets/Scenes/ProjectileDemo.unity

⇒ Assets/Scenes/ProjectileDemo.unity

⇒ Assets/Scenes/SpawnDemo.unity

⇒ Assets/Scenes/Nav/NavPerformanceDemo.unity

⇒ Assets/Scenes/ProjectileDemo.unity

⇒ Assets/Scenes/SpawnDemo.unity

Linux users may need to do some extra work to get the project and/or packages up and running.

Install Mono by following these directions.

On Ubuntu I couldn't use the Burst compiler until I manually installed gcc-multilib and libncurses5 with:

sudo apt install gcc-multilib libncurses5

You may have these libraries already, or you could be experiencing a different problem. Be sure to read any error messages the Unity Editor outputs.
