Section titled “Detailed Description”
struct EntropyCanvas::SimulationSource;

Declares which system is authoritative for this entity’s transform.

Authority::ECS (default): Transform component is the source of truth.

  • Normal simulation path, 1+ frame render latency acceptable.

Authority::Other: An external system owns this transform.

  • Render samples directly from external source (zero latency)
  • Simulation tick syncs external → ECS at start for other systems
  • Examples: SDL input (FPS camera), OpenXR tracking, motion capture
