Objective
Introduce a dedicated transform system group and explicit transform ordering to guarantee deterministic transform propagation behavior across the engine. This also prepares the scheduling pipeline for future ordering integrations with rendering, physics, animation and runtime schedule inspection tooling.
Solution
Previously, transform synchronization and propagation systems relied primarily on implicit registration order. This made execution ordering dependent on registration sequence and plugin initialization order, which becomes fragile as more engine systems integrate with transforms.
Changes made
Introduced
TransformSystemssystem groupThis group acts as a stable scheduling anchor for transform-related systems. The group is registered on the update schedule.
Added explicit transform ordering
Transform propagation systems now explicitly depend on transform synchronization systems. This guarantees propagation always executes after local transforms are synchronized.
Why this approach
Using a dedicated transform system group provides:
Explicit ordering constraints are preferred over implicit registration order because they:
This also aligns transform scheduling with the newer schedule graph architecture.
