REQUIREMENTS

• Minimum Unity Version 2022.3 LTS +

DEPENDENCIES

• unity.burst
• unity.splines
• unity.addressables (optional)
• unity.entities (optional)

SPAWN TYPES

• Editor Prefabs - Can be used as a classic prefab spawner while working in the editor. Supports physics simulation and spawning via hotkey or mouse click.
• GameObjects - Instantiates Unity GameObjects at runtime.
• Pool - Utilizes the internal pooling solution, allowing prefabs to be shared among multiple components conveniently.
• ECS (DOTS) Entities - Spawns entities into a sub-scene while the Spawn Machine component and its execution remain in the classic scene.
• Addressables - Uses the addressables package to spawn GameObjects marked as addressables into the scene.

MODULES

Transform Modules

One module is required for each component.

• Circle - Generates spawning data within a circle shape or on the circle's circumference.
• Cube - Generates spawning data on a cubic shape.
• Grid - Creates a 3-dimensional grid.
• Manual - Manually specifies spawn transform data.
• Mesh - Spawns on mesh vertices.
• Reference - Uses one or more scene references to generate transform data.
• Skinned Mesh - Spawns on skinned mesh vertices.
• Sphere - Generates spawning data within a spherical shape or on its surface.
• Spline - Generates spawning data on a Unity spline.
• Terrain - Generates spawning data on a Unity terrain.

Modify Modules

Optional modules to modify existing transform data.

• Change Order - Changes the order of the transform data.
• Distance Filter - Filters data based on distance, such as a height filter.
• Method - Retrieves data from a method (e.g., OnCollisionEnter) to alter data.
• Noise Texture - Uses a Texture2D to generate noise.
• Offset - Offsets the current data.
• Offset Sum - Offsets the current data additively.
• Raycast - Raycasts the spawns to the ground.
• Reference - Uses one or more scene references to generate transform data.
• Remove - Removes items from the transform data.
• Remove Overlap - Removes overlapping items using either mesh or collider bounds.
• Rotate Around - Rotates items around a pivot point.
• Slope Filter - Filters data based on slope.
• Terrain Texture - Filters data based on a terrain texture.
• Void - Creates a void area from colliders.

SYSTEMS

• Save System - Save and load your spawns at runtime with a simple method call, including a slot ID parameter.
• Gizmos System - Specify gizmo settings for each spawn type on each component individually, for example, to draw certain shapes, collider or mesh bounds, or simply the mesh of the prefab.
• Event System - Choose from a set of Unity Events which you can add modularly in the inspector or subscribe to an associated Unity Action via script. These include, for example, 'OnExecutionStart', 'OnTimePassed', or 'OnDestroy'.
• Runtime Profiler - An optional GameObject that displays information about active Spawn Machines in the scene, such as the type of objects being spawned.
• API - Please refer to this page for the full API.
