🧬 Bevy Replicon 0.37.0 is out!

It's a networking crate for the Bevy game engine.

This release features a new visibility system. It's component-driven, so you don't have to maintain visibility separately from your gameplay logic. And it now supports both component and entity visibility.
It took quite some time to refactor the codebase to support this, but I'm very happy with the result 🙂

#bevy #simgine

Updated my crates to Bevy 0.17:
- bevy_replicon: https://github.com/simgine/bevy_replicon
- bevy_enhanced_input: https://github.com/simgine/bevy_enhanced_input

This update is mostly migration work, with a few breaking changes in naming to match Bevy's own changes (such as the event re-architecture).
I try to minimize breakages when Bevy updates to make migrations easier.

We also plan to upstream bevy_enhanced_input, so please try it out and share your feedback with me and @alice_i_cecile.

🧬 Bevy Replicon 0.35.0 is out!

It's a networking crate for the Bevy game engine.

Highlights:
- Prioritization system.
- Query filters for replication rules.
- New API to map client-spawned entities using hashes.
- Migration to Bevy states.

We also revamped the examples!
I previously showcased a boids example, but later realized that a silly mistake in the code left the boids half-blind 😅
So here's a new video where they can properly see each other.
