RemoveChunkComponent<T>(Entity)
Removes a chunk component from the specified entity.
Declaration
public bool RemoveChunkComponent<T>(Entity entity)Parameters
| Type | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Entity | entity | The entity. |
Returns
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| bool | False if the entity did not have the component. |
Type Parameters
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| T | The type of component to remove. |
Remarks
A chunk component is common to all entities in a chunk. Removing the chunk component from an entity changes that entity's archetype and results in the entity being moved to a different chunk (that does not have the removed component).
Important: This method creates a sync point, which means that the EntityManager waits for all currently running jobs to complete before removing the component. No additional jobs can start before the method is finished. A sync point can cause a drop in performance because the ECS framework might not be able to use the processing power of all available cores.
Exceptions
| Type | Condition |
|---|---|
| ArgumentException | The Entity does not exist. |
