1626061185048248321 @dirk__groot @RonJeffries What it each component is an array of structs:{id: 1 time_left: 1.045 }{id: 1 time_left: 0.001 }Then two systems to process these:countdown_system - deducts delta time from each entity's time_leftfizzle_system - removes entity from entities array if time_left <= 0 0
1625968140449447962 @RonJeffries @bonder Every component could have its own "struct" and the entities could have a List<Any> property, containing their components. The system could use instance checks to handle each component.See https://t.co/3AePXFfVzn. 0

1625914229499863042 @RonJeffries Nice to read your thoughts about my thoughts 😄, thanks!I think what has emerged here is a very simple, but effective Entity/Component/System (ECS) pattern.It can be made more dynamic, but that might make it more complex than what's appropriate for the "problem" at hand. 0
1625581771034173441 @RonJeffries I think that much of the good practices of OO design apply to non-OO design as well. It's just that with OO you have some more tools available (inheritance and dynamic polymorphism), which non-OO languages don't have. 0
1625581113535090688 @RonJeffries So maybe in the Asteroids case there could be a data structure representing a "Universe", containing "Asteroid"s and a "Ship"? The "Ship" in turn could hold "Missile"s, which, when fired, are removed from the "Ship" and added to the "Universe". 0
1625578796135899150 @RonJeffries I think, back in the procedural days, it was considered best practice to avoid globals as much as possible and pass state around using parameters...?So one would design data types (structs) to hold state, much like we design classes nowadays, only without state being private. 0

1627882742598848513 @RonJeffries lol, which one?I spent a yr in Sweden and became fluent in Swedish so I thought I was a language talent. So I took Russian for a year, got C, learned roughly nothing, and can now still say "I don't speak Russian" in a convincing tone. there was also the thermodynamics class... 2

1624150833016483840 @RonJeffries This version is creeping toward an actual entity-component-system (ECS) approach. Very interesting to watch this! 1
