Features

Components

• BindToCamera will bind it's transform to parent's camera's near or far. Handy for keeping thing to the front or the back of a camera.
• CameraFrustumGizmo always shows the camera's frustum in the scene view. Even when the camera is not selected.
• CameraFader fades the camera to a texture. It includes a inspector button to generate a solid color texture.
• DefaultInstance Gets/sets a single static Default instance. Rather than have singletons, instances can utilize this generic container. For example DefaultInstance<MyClass>.Set( this ) and MyClass instance = DefaultInstance<MyClass>.Get().
• DestroyAllChildren destroys the gameobject's children. Useful for dynamic content. Can be undone when in editor mode.
• DistributeChildren distributes it's children between two points. The two points can be manipulated in the scene view.
• DropdownCameraSelectorbinds a list of cameras to a UI.Dropdown.
• GridRepeater clones prefabs into a grid.
• InstantiateAtTag creates instances of a prefab in the scene at the position of game objects with a certain tag. When used in editor it can be undone. Instances can be parented with the game object at the tag, a container or the root of the scene.
• Motion applies trig based motions to selectable variables of the transform component.
• MotionCloner applies a master transforms position, rotation and scale to components transform. Provides options for using local or world space, and retaining offsets.
• MouseHider hides the mouse after a set number of seconds.
• PivotGizmo3D draws customisable axises like the move tool when the object is not selected.
• SceneRecorder frame capture and video creation on OSX using ffmpeg installed by Homebrew.
• Singleton inherit from to make a singleton. See DefaultInstance for a better system.
• Spawner instantiates prefabs in a random location within a predefined shape. It can set to do this every frame and spawn multiples.
• TextGizo always displays text in the scene view

Managers

Managers use the BowieCode.DefaultInstance<T> system.

• DebugNotificationManager displays short notification labels with a severity level of either info, warning or error. They are displayed indefinitely or for a set timespan, and can be updated once displayed.
• AppManager includes:
  • hides the mouse if none are detected or after a set period of time,
  • adds a checkbox to run application in the background.

• TagAttribute and TagDrawer provides range tag selection for a string. See: TagAttributeExample..
• LayerAttribute and LayerDrawer provides layer selection for an int.
• MinMaxSliderAttribute and MinMaxSliderDrawer provides range sliders for Vector2. See: MinMaxSliderExample.

• BowieMath includes:
  • CompareVectors compares if Vector are close to equal,
  • MapIntervalF maps an input float from one range to another,
  • SinFis a sine wave generator with an amplitude, and frequency defined by cyclesPerSecond.
• BowieTime fractional day & time and format helpers.
• BowieExtensions contains ForEachWithIndex for collection enumeration.
• Editor Only:
  • ReorderableListUtil wrapper to Create and Draw a reorderable list with the correct spacing. See example for usage. See: ReorderableListExample & ReorderableListExampleEditor.
