Public Member Functions
	MeshComponent (Actor *pOwner, Mesh *pMesh)
	Constructs a MeshComponent and assigns it to an owning Actor.
void	Render (IRenderer *rRenderer) override
	Renders the mesh using the renderer interface. Applies the world transform of the owning actor and texture tiling before rendering.
RenderType	GetRenderType () override
	Returns the render type of the component, which is World for MeshComponent. Used to determine how and where in the pipeline the object should be rendered.
virtual void	SetMesh (Mesh &pMesh)
	Sets the mesh that this component will render.
void	SetTextureIndex (size_t pTextureIndex)
	Sets the index of the texture to be used from the mesh's texture list.
void	SetTextureTiling (float x, float y)
	Sets the tiling factor for the mesh's texture. This controls how many times the texture is repeated across the surface.
Public Member Functions inherited from RenderComponent
	RenderComponent (Actor *pOwner)
	Constructs the RenderComponent and assigns it to the owning Actor.
void	OnStart () override
	Called when the component is started. Registers the component with the scene's renderer for drawing.
void	OnEnd () override
	Called when the component is removed or destroyed. Unregisters the component from the renderer.

virtual	~Component ()
virtual void	Update ()
	Called every frame to update the component. This can be used to perform actions that need to be updated periodically.
virtual void	OnUpdateWorldTrandform ()

void	SetActive (bool isActive)
	Sets the active status of the component.
void	SetOwner (Actor *pOwner)
	Sets the actor that owns this component.
int	GetUpdateOrder () const
	Returns the update order of the component. Components with lower update orders are updated first.
Actor *	GetOwner () const
	Returns the actor that owns this component.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

MeshComponent()

MeshComponent::MeshComponent	(	Actor *	pOwner,
		Mesh *	pMesh )

Parameters

pOwner	Pointer to the Actor that owns this component.
pMesh	Pointer to the Mesh to render.

Member Function Documentation

GetRenderType()

RenderType MeshComponent::GetRenderType ( )

overridevirtual

Returns the render type of the component, which is World for MeshComponent. Used to determine how and where in the pipeline the object should be rendered.

Returns

RenderType::World

Implements RenderComponent.

Render()

void MeshComponent::Render ( IRenderer * rRenderer )

overridevirtual

Renders the mesh using the renderer interface. Applies the world transform of the owning actor and texture tiling before rendering.

Parameters

rRenderer

Reference to the renderer responsible for drawing.

Implements RenderComponent.

SetMesh()

void MeshComponent::SetMesh ( Mesh & pMesh )

virtual

Sets the mesh that this component will render.

Parameters

pMesh

Reference to the Mesh object.

SetTextureIndex()

void MeshComponent::SetTextureIndex

(

size_t

pTextureIndex

)

Sets the index of the texture to be used from the mesh's texture list.

Parameters

pTextureIndex

The index of the texture to use.

SetTextureTiling()

void MeshComponent::SetTextureTiling	(	float	x,
		float	y )

Sets the tiling factor for the mesh's texture. This controls how many times the texture is repeated across the surface.

Parameters

x	Tiling amount in the X direction.
y	Tiling amount in the Y direction.
