lib.rs

//! Headless sim: `bevy_ecs` world stepped without a renderer.
//! Game owns `Sim`, feeds wall time via `Sim::step`,
//! then reads a snapshot for the viewport.
//!
//! Determinism stance: `bevy_ecs` query iteration follows entity allocation
//! history, so a replay with an identical spawn history iterates
//! identically. The sim does NOT sort systems' iteration for you: any
//! gameplay outcome that depends on iteration order (damage application,
//! projectile-vs-multiple-enemies resolution) must sort explicitly in the
//! affected system, or replays diverge the moment allocation history does.
//! Cross-platform float equality (notably `Perlin`/`sin`/`powf` in fx) is
//! additionally *not* guaranteed between native libm and wasm; same-binary
//! replay is the supported claim, cross-target equality needs a harness
//! (run one trace twice, hash the world per tick, diff).
