Struct Simulation 

pub struct Simulation { /* private fields */ }

The core simulation state, advanced by calling step().

Implementations

impl Simulation

pub fn new( config: &SimConfig, dispatch: impl DispatchStrategy + 'static, ) -> Result<Self, SimError>

Create a new simulation from config and a dispatch strategy.

Returns Err if the config is invalid (zero stops, duplicate IDs, negative speeds, etc.).

Errors

Returns SimError::InvalidConfig if the configuration has zero stops, duplicate stop IDs, zero elevators, non-positive physics parameters, invalid starting stops, or non-positive tick rate.

pub fn set_dispatch( &mut self, group: GroupId, strategy: Box<dyn DispatchStrategy>, id: BuiltinStrategy, )

Replace the dispatch strategy for a group.

The id parameter identifies the strategy for snapshot serialization. Use BuiltinStrategy::Custom("name") for custom strategies.

pub fn set_reposition( &mut self, group: GroupId, strategy: Box<dyn RepositionStrategy>, id: BuiltinReposition, )

Set the reposition strategy for a group.

Enables the reposition phase for this group. Idle elevators will be repositioned according to the strategy after each dispatch phase.

pub fn remove_reposition(&mut self, group: GroupId)

Remove the reposition strategy for a group, disabling repositioning.

pub fn reposition_id(&self, group: GroupId) -> Option<&BuiltinReposition>

Get the reposition strategy identifier for a group.

pub fn add_before_hook( &mut self, phase: Phase, hook: impl Fn(&mut World) + Send + Sync + 'static, )

Register a hook to run before a simulation phase.

Hooks are called in registration order. The hook receives mutable access to the world, allowing entity inspection or modification.

pub fn add_after_hook( &mut self, phase: Phase, hook: impl Fn(&mut World) + Send + Sync + 'static, )

Register a hook to run after a simulation phase.

Hooks are called in registration order. The hook receives mutable access to the world, allowing entity inspection or modification.

pub fn add_before_group_hook( &mut self, phase: Phase, group: GroupId, hook: impl Fn(&mut World) + Send + Sync + 'static, )

Register a hook to run before a phase for a specific group.

pub fn add_after_group_hook( &mut self, phase: Phase, group: GroupId, hook: impl Fn(&mut World) + Send + Sync + 'static, )

Register a hook to run after a phase for a specific group.

impl Simulation

pub fn load_extensions(&mut self)

Deserialize extension components from a snapshot.

Call this after restoring from a snapshot and registering all extension types via world.register_ext::<T>(name).

let mut sim = snapshot.restore(None);
sim.world_mut().register_ext::<VipTag>("vip_tag");
sim.load_extensions();

pub fn reroute( &mut self, rider: EntityId, new_destination: EntityId, ) -> Result<(), SimError>

Change a rider’s destination mid-route.

Replaces remaining route legs with a single direct leg to new_destination, keeping the rider’s current stop as origin.

Returns Err if the rider does not exist or is not in Waiting phase (riding/boarding riders cannot be rerouted until they exit).

Errors

Returns SimError::EntityNotFound if rider does not exist. Returns SimError::InvalidState if the rider is not in RiderPhase::Waiting or has no current stop.

pub fn set_rider_route( &mut self, rider: EntityId, route: Route, ) -> Result<(), SimError>

Replace a rider’s entire remaining route.

Errors

Returns SimError::EntityNotFound if rider does not exist.

pub fn settle_rider(&mut self, id: EntityId) -> Result<(), SimError>

Transition an Arrived or Abandoned rider to Resident at their current stop.

Resident riders are parked — invisible to dispatch and loading, but queryable via residents_at(). They can later be given a new route via reroute_rider().

Errors

Returns SimError::EntityNotFound if id does not exist. Returns SimError::InvalidState if the rider is not in Arrived or Abandoned phase, or has no current stop.

pub fn reroute_rider( &mut self, id: EntityId, route: Route, ) -> Result<(), SimError>

Give a Resident rider a new route, transitioning them to Waiting.

The rider begins waiting at their current stop for an elevator matching the route’s transport mode. If the rider has a Patience component, its waited_ticks is reset to zero.

Errors

Returns SimError::EntityNotFound if id does not exist. Returns SimError::InvalidState if the rider is not in Resident phase, the route has no legs, or the route’s first leg origin does not match the rider’s current stop.

pub fn despawn_rider(&mut self, id: EntityId) -> Result<(), SimError>

Remove a rider from the simulation entirely.

Cleans up the population index, metric tags, and elevator cross-references (if the rider is currently aboard). Emits Event::RiderDespawned.

All rider removal should go through this method rather than calling world.despawn() directly, to keep the population index consistent.

Errors

Returns SimError::EntityNotFound if id does not exist or is not a rider.

pub fn set_rider_access( &mut self, rider: EntityId, allowed_stops: HashSet<EntityId>, ) -> Result<(), SimError>

Set the allowed stops for a rider.

When set, the rider will only be allowed to board elevators that can take them to a stop in the allowed set. See AccessControl for details.

Errors

Returns SimError::EntityNotFound if the rider does not exist.

pub fn set_elevator_restricted_stops( &mut self, elevator: EntityId, restricted_stops: HashSet<EntityId>, ) -> Result<(), SimError>

Set the restricted stops for an elevator.

Riders whose current destination is in this set will be rejected with RejectionReason::AccessDenied during the loading phase.

Errors

Returns SimError::EntityNotFound if the elevator does not exist.

Iterate over abandoned rider IDs at a stop (O(1) lookup).

pub fn abandoned_count_at(&self, stop: EntityId) -> usize

Count of abandoned riders at a stop (O(1)).

Get the rider entities currently aboard an elevator.

Returns an empty slice if the elevator does not exist.

pub fn occupancy(&self, elevator: EntityId) -> usize

Get the number of riders aboard an elevator.

Returns 0 if the elevator does not exist.

pub fn disable(&mut self, id: EntityId) -> Result<(), SimError>

Disable an entity. Disabled entities are skipped by all systems.

If the entity is an elevator in motion, it is reset to Idle with zero velocity to prevent stale target references on re-enable.

Note on residents: disabling a stop does not automatically handle Resident riders parked there. Callers should listen for Event::EntityDisabled and manually reroute or despawn any residents at the affected stop.

Emits EntityDisabled. Returns Err if the entity does not exist.

Errors

Returns SimError::EntityNotFound if id does not refer to a living entity.

pub fn enable(&mut self, id: EntityId) -> Result<(), SimError>

Re-enable a disabled entity.

pub fn is_elevator(&self, id: EntityId) -> bool

Check if an entity is an elevator.

use elevator_core::prelude::*;

Check if an entity is a rider.

pub fn is_stop(&self, id: EntityId) -> bool

Check if an entity is a stop.

pub fn idle_elevator_count(&self) -> usize

let sim = SimulationBuilder::demo().build().unwrap();
assert_eq!(sim.idle_elevator_count(), 1);

pub fn elevator_load(&self, id: EntityId) -> Option<f64>

Current total weight aboard an elevator, or None if the entity is not an elevator.

use elevator_core::prelude::*;

let sim = SimulationBuilder::demo().build().unwrap();
let stop = sim.stop_entity(StopId(0)).unwrap();
assert_eq!(sim.elevator_load(stop), None); // not an elevator

pub fn elevator_going_up(&self, id: EntityId) -> Option<bool>

pub fn braking_distance(&self, id: EntityId) -> Option<f64>

Distance the elevator would travel while braking to a stop from its current velocity, at its configured deceleration rate.

Uses the standard v² / (2·a) kinematic formula. A stationary elevator returns Some(0.0). Returns None if the entity is not an elevator or lacks a velocity component.

Useful for writing opportunistic dispatch strategies (e.g. “stop at this floor if we can brake in time”) without duplicating the physics computation.

pub fn future_stop_position(&self, id: EntityId) -> Option<f64>

The position where the elevator would come to rest if it began braking this instant. Current position plus a signed braking distance in the direction of travel.

Returns None if the entity is not an elevator or lacks the required components.

pub fn elevators_in_phase(&self, phase: ElevatorPhase) -> usize

Count of elevators currently in the given phase.

Excludes disabled elevators (whose phase is reset to Idle on disable).

use elevator_core::prelude::*;

let sim = SimulationBuilder::demo().build().unwrap();
assert_eq!(sim.elevators_in_phase(ElevatorPhase::Idle), 1);
assert_eq!(sim.elevators_in_phase(ElevatorPhase::Loading), 0);

impl Simulation

pub fn add_stop( &mut self, name: String, position: f64, line: EntityId, ) -> Result<EntityId, SimError>

Add a new stop to a group at runtime. Returns its EntityId.

Runtime-added stops have no StopId — they are identified purely by EntityId. The stop_lookup (config StopId → EntityId) is not updated.

Errors

Returns SimError::GroupNotFound if the specified group does not exist.

pub fn remove_line(&mut self, line: EntityId) -> Result<(), SimError>

Remove a line and all its elevators from the simulation.

Elevators on the line are disabled (not despawned) so riders are properly ejected to the nearest stop.

Errors

Returns SimError::LineNotFound if the line entity is not found in any group.

pub fn remove_elevator(&mut self, elevator: EntityId) -> Result<(), SimError>

Remove an elevator from the simulation.

The elevator is disabled first (ejecting any riders), then removed from its line and despawned from the world.

Errors

Returns SimError::EntityNotFound if the elevator does not exist.

pub fn remove_stop(&mut self, stop: EntityId) -> Result<(), SimError>

Remove a stop from the simulation.

The stop is disabled first (invalidating routes that reference it), then removed from all lines and despawned from the world.

Errors

Returns SimError::LineNotFound if the line is not found in any group. Returns SimError::GroupNotFound if new_group does not exist.

pub fn reassign_elevator_to_line( &mut self, elevator: EntityId, new_line: EntityId, ) -> Result<(), SimError>

Reassign an elevator to a different line (swing-car pattern).

The elevator is moved from its current line to the target line. Both lines must be in the same group, or you must reassign the line first via assign_line_to_group.

Errors

Returns SimError::EntityNotFound if the elevator does not exist. Returns SimError::LineNotFound if the target line is not found in any group.

pub fn add_stop_to_line( &mut self, stop: EntityId, line: EntityId, ) -> Result<(), SimError>

Add a stop to a line’s served stops.

Errors

Returns SimError::EntityNotFound if the stop does not exist. Returns SimError::LineNotFound if the line is not found in any group.

pub fn remove_stop_from_line( &mut self, stop: EntityId, line: EntityId, ) -> Result<(), SimError>

pub const fn world(&self) -> &World

Get a shared reference to the world.

pub const fn world_mut(&mut self) -> &mut World

Peek at events pending for consumer retrieval.

pub fn destination_queue(&self, elev: EntityId) -> Option<&[EntityId]>

Read-only view of an elevator’s destination queue (FIFO of target stop EntityIds).

Returns None if elev is not an elevator entity. Returns Some(&[]) for elevators with an empty queue.

pub fn push_destination( &mut self, elev: EntityId, stop: EntityId, ) -> Result<(), SimError>

Push a stop onto the back of an elevator’s destination queue.

Adjacent duplicates are suppressed: if the last entry already equals stop, the queue is unchanged and no event is emitted. Otherwise emits Event::DestinationQueued.

Errors

• SimError::InvalidState if elev is not an elevator.
• SimError::InvalidState if stop is not a stop.

pub fn push_destination_front( &mut self, elev: EntityId, stop: EntityId, ) -> Result<(), SimError>

Insert a stop at the front of an elevator’s destination queue — “go here next, before anything else in the queue”.

On the next AdvanceQueue phase (between Dispatch and Movement), the elevator redirects to this new front if it differs from the current target.

Adjacent duplicates are suppressed: if the first entry already equals stop, the queue is unchanged and no event is emitted.

Errors

• SimError::InvalidState if elev is not an elevator.
• SimError::InvalidState if stop is not a stop.

pub fn clear_destinations(&mut self, elev: EntityId) -> Result<(), SimError>

Clear an elevator’s destination queue.

TODO: clearing does not currently abort an in-flight movement — the elevator will finish its current leg and then go idle (since the queue is empty). A future change can add a phase transition to cancel mid-flight.

Errors

Returns SimError::InvalidState if elev is not an elevator.

pub fn tag_entity(&mut self, id: EntityId, tag: impl Into<String>)

Attach a metric tag to an entity (rider, stop, elevator, etc.).

Tags enable per-tag metric breakdowns. An entity can have multiple tags. Riders automatically inherit tags from their origin stop when spawned.

pub fn untag_entity(&mut self, id: EntityId, tag: &str)

Remove a metric tag from an entity.

pub fn metrics_for_tag(&self, tag: &str) -> Option<&TaggedMetric>

    .unwrap()
    .weight(80.0)
    .spawn()
    .unwrap();

pub fn spawn_rider( &mut self, origin: EntityId, destination: EntityId, weight: f64, ) -> Result<EntityId, SimError>

Spawn a rider at the given origin stop entity, headed to destination stop entity.

Auto-detects the elevator group by finding groups that serve both origin and destination stops.

Errors

Returns SimError::NoRoute if no group serves both stops. Returns SimError::AmbiguousRoute if multiple groups serve both stops.

pub fn spawn_rider_with_route( &mut self, origin: EntityId, destination: EntityId, weight: f64, route: Route, ) -> Result<EntityId, SimError>

Spawn a rider with an explicit route.

Same as spawn_rider but uses the provided route instead of auto-detecting the group.

Errors

Returns SimError::EntityNotFound if origin does not exist. Returns SimError::InvalidState if origin doesn’t match the route’s first leg from.

pub fn spawn_rider_by_stop_id( &mut self, origin: StopId, destination: StopId, weight: f64, ) -> Result<EntityId, SimError>

Convenience: spawn a rider by config StopId.

Returns Err if either stop ID is not found.

Errors

Returns SimError::StopNotFound if the origin or destination stop ID is not in the building configuration.

use elevator_core::prelude::*;

// Default builder has StopId(0) and StopId(1).
let mut sim = SimulationBuilder::demo().build().unwrap();

let rider = sim.spawn_rider_by_stop_id(StopId(0), StopId(1), 80.0).unwrap();
sim.step(); // metrics are updated during the tick
assert_eq!(sim.metrics().total_spawned(), 1);

pub fn spawn_rider_in_group( &mut self, origin: EntityId, destination: EntityId, weight: f64, group: GroupId, ) -> Result<EntityId, SimError>

Spawn a rider using a specific group for routing.

Like spawn_rider but skips auto-detection — uses the given group directly. Useful when the caller already knows the group, or to resolve an AmbiguousRoute.

Errors

Returns SimError::GroupNotFound if the group does not exist.

pub fn spawn_rider_in_group_by_stop_id( &mut self, origin: StopId, destination: StopId, weight: f64, group: GroupId, ) -> Result<EntityId, SimError>

Errors

Returns SimError::StopNotFound if a stop ID is unknown, or SimError::GroupNotFound if the group does not exist.

pub fn drain_events(&mut self) -> Vec<Event>

Drain all pending events from completed ticks.

Events emitted during step() (or per-phase methods) are buffered and made available here after advance_tick() is called. Events emitted outside the tick loop (e.g., spawn_rider, disable) are also included.

use elevator_core::prelude::*;

let mut sim = SimulationBuilder::demo().build().unwrap();

sim.spawn_rider_by_stop_id(StopId(0), StopId(1), 70.0).unwrap();
sim.step();

let events = sim.drain_events();
assert!(!events.is_empty());

pub fn drain_events_where( &mut self, predicate: impl Fn(&Event) -> bool, ) -> Vec<Event>

Drain only events matching a predicate.

Events that don’t match the predicate remain in the buffer and will be returned by future drain_events or drain_events_where calls.

use elevator_core::prelude::*;

let mut sim = SimulationBuilder::demo().build().unwrap();
sim.spawn_rider_by_stop_id(StopId(0), StopId(1), 70.0).unwrap();
sim.step();

pub fn run_metrics(&mut self)

Run only the metrics phase (with hooks).

pub fn advance_tick(&mut self)

Increment the tick counter and flush events to the output buffer.

Call after running all desired phases. Events emitted during this tick are moved to the output buffer and available via drain_events().

pub fn step(&mut self)

Advance the simulation by one tick.

Events from this tick are buffered internally and available via drain_events(). The metrics system only processes events from the current tick, regardless of whether the consumer drains them.

use elevator_core::prelude::*;

let mut sim = SimulationBuilder::demo().build().unwrap();
sim.step();
assert_eq!(sim.current_tick(), 1);

impl Simulation

pub fn snapshot(&self) -> WorldSnapshot

Create a serializable snapshot of the current simulation state.

The snapshot captures all entities, components, groups, metrics, and the tick counter. Extension components and custom resources are NOT included — games must serialize those separately.

Trait Implementations

impl Debug for Simulation
