Is it still possible/recommended to copy translation values back to GameObject?

I've played with ECS before and at that time I remember there was a Pure vs Hybrid approach. I see now in the docs that there's no mention to hybrid anymore (probably to avoid the confusion it was creating?). I tried to find any announcements about it and I couldn't find.

My question is: can I still copy the translation values from entity back to gameobject?

Here's my setup:

- GameObjectA with

ConvertToEntity

set to "Convert and Inject Game Object".
- GameObjectA with

MoveSpeedAuthoring

which is the monobehavior that implements

IConvertGameObjectToEntity

to convert game object value to entity value.
-

MovementSystem

which just sets a new translation value based on the movespeed and delta time.

Everything works from entity side, except I want to update the game object values to match the entity translation value. How can I do it?

I remember there was a

Copy Transform to GameObject

script but since I don't see those in the docs anymore I'm assuming it's being deprecated (it also complains if used with

Convert to Entity

)

So how can I keep my code hybrid for now but using ECS under the hood? (Reason is: I still want to use the old physics system as I want to wait for the new one to mature in performance, and I'm doing a 2D game which sprite renderer is not a first-class citizen yet for the hybrid renderer).

 

Treat yourself

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2. public class CopyTransformToGameObjectComponent: MonoBehaviour, IConvertGameObjectToEntity
3.     {
4.         public void Convert(Entity entity, EntityManager dstManager, GameObjectConversionSystem conversionSystem)
5.         {
6.             dstManager.AddComponent(entity, typeof(CopyTransformToGameObject));
7.         }
8.     }
9.  

 

Great! Thanks a lot!
