    I am creating some entities using commandbuffer and after that I would like to schedule a job which works on those entities' data. How can I make job dependent on EntityCommandBuffer playback?

    Have the system that schedules the job be tagged with [UpdateAfter(typeof(MyEntityCommandBufferSystem))]. Now once the ECBS has played back the system will execute and begin scheduling jobs

    ECBS is in system group and after that system group the system with said job runs. When I run job with Run it works fine but with Schedule it doesn't
