    Is it possible to call a method inside the BaseSystem or ISystem to spawn entity from monobehaviour script?
    The only idea i have is to create buffer list to add units for spawn, and check in system`s on update if list contains units to spawn.
    What is the right approach?

    you can just grab the EntityManager from the world in your monobehavior.

    Code (CSharp):
    1. var entityManager  = World.DefaultGameObjectInjectionWorld.EntityManager;
    and then just use it like you where in a system.
    if you spawn some here and then it should be no problem for the performance.

    depending on your setup you might need another world :)
