How do i access an entities transform inside a Job?

I have the following code, basically i am trying to reuse entities, when a cloud goes out of range of the player i am moving it back to the other side of the player to emulate a rolling sky. But i cant directly affect an objects transform, i get an error saying the Transform is a managed IComponent and can only be used with .WithoutBurst and .Run but this job is using .Run so it has me confused

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2. Entities.ForEach((Entity entity, ref Transform t, ref ConstantMovement constantMovement, in CloudComponent cloudComponent) =>
3.         {
4.             //Update the direction and moveSpeed of the clouds
5.             constantMovement.Direction = direction;
6.             constantMovement.moveSpeed = moveSpeed;
7.  
8.             //Check whether this cloud has gone out of the spawnrange
9.             if (Vector3.Distance(t.position, playerPos) > threshold)
10.             {
11.                 //Check that the current number of clouds doesnt exceed the maximum
12.                 if(numOfClouds<= maxCloudCount)
13.                 {
14.                     //Create Random
15.                     System.Random r = new System.Random();
16.  
17.                     //Generate vector in the opposite direction of cloud movement on edge of spawn
18.                     Vector3 offset = (direction.normalized*-1) * threshold;
19.  
20.                     //Apply a random offset along the x&z axis
21.                     offset.x += (direction.normalized.x * Mathf.Lerp(-threshold, threshold, (float)r.NextDouble()));
22.                     offset.z += (direction.normalized.z * Mathf.Lerp(-threshold, threshold, (float)r.NextDouble()));
23.                    
24.                     //Reset Height
25.                     offset.y = playerPos.y + cloudHeight + Mathf.Lerp(-cloudHeightRange, cloudHeightRange, (float)r.NextDouble());
26.  
27.                     //Set transform position to the generated vector
28.                     t.position = playerPos + offset;
29.  
30.                 }
31.                 //If it does then destroy this cloud instead of repopulating it
32.                 else
33.                 {
34.                     //Destroy cloud
35.                 }
36.             }
37.  
38.         }).Run();
39.  

 

By default everything with .Run() is compiled with burst. Unless you specify .WithoutBurst() that is.

Note that there's a TransformAccess that allows to read / write from transforms in an actual job.
(.Run -> runs on a main thread without jobs)

 

In ECS World, in your case, you need to access your Entity's Translation component and update it as per your game logic.
Avoid using Transforms in ECS.
Surely first check Unity Transforms page in Entity docs for clarity on how Transform component conversion of Gameobjects into ECS world happens.

And,
When using Jobs in Monobehaviour world, you can go for a IJobParallelForTransform & TransformAccessArray for updating Transform data directly.

 

How do i directly access it's translation? using "Translation" doesn't work as it did when i set the entities original position

 

Never mind, i just realised i didnt have include Transforms in my file, i assumed i had since "Transform" was working. Thanks!
