    Hello everyone,
    I've been researching DOTS as part of my graduation thesis in the past few months. As part of this research, I'm trying to get an idea about the way DOTS users currently use DOTS packages and how they feel about DOTS. I've set up a survey where you can share your experience and thoughts. Most of these are multiple-choice questions and all of them are optional; if a question is irrelevant to the way you use DOTS, for instance when a question is referring to the Entities package but you only use Jobs, please skip these questions or choose "no opinion" where possible.
    The survey can be found here: https://forms.gle/JQa3f9h64g75osPX9
    Answering the questions should only take a few minutes, though of course feel free to be as elaborate as you want when answering the open questions. Thanks in advance!

    I'm an academic, so I get the need for data. Post an abstract or something for us when it's done.

    Was definitely planning on sharing the results on this forum if there are enough responses. Maybe it will even be of some use to Unity's DOTS team, who knows.

    Thanks for the responses everyone! I was worried not many people would respond but I've already got 14 responses, which seems like a lot considering the size of this subforum. I'll write a summary of what I consider to be the most interesting results and I'll post to a new thread and link it here. I also just found an option that should let you all see the responses, let me know if that works for anyone.

    Special thanks to @DreamingImLatios for providing me with some feedback before posting this survey, and for being a helpful member of this subforum :) My research would have been a lot harder without all of you taking the time out of your day to provide feedback to Unity's DOTS team, and help out other DOTS users.
