The built-in system a preset drives. Extend as Plan 0003 (and later plans) add systems; unknown names are rejected at load.

Variants

FragmentField

The fullscreen fragment-field scene.

Swarm

The CPU particle-swarm scene.

ParametricCurve

The parametric line-curve scene (Maurer rose, …) — ADR-0007.

LSystem

The L-system generator scene — ADR-0007.

StarPattern

The Hankin star-pattern generator scene — ADR-0007.

ReactionDiffusion

The Gray-Scott reaction-diffusion feedback scene — ADR-0012.

Attractor

The GPU compute-particle strange-attractor scene — ADR-0015.

Spectrum

The N-element spectrum readout — ADR-0036. A line scene like the three above (it draws through the same shared renderer), driven by the analysis frame’s log-spaced band array rather than by a generator.

ShapeField

The mark roster drawn at frame scale as a signed-distance field — ADR-0105. The one scene whose palette coordinate is a distance, which is what makes palette_steps draw concentric offset contours of a shape.

Emitter

The ballistic emitter — objects that spawn, fall on a parabola and die (ADR-0057). The first scene whose population is not fixed.

WarpMesh

The warp mesh — a per-vertex UV grid that resamples the previous frame (ADR-0113). Generalizes ADR-0048’s single shared feedback transform to one transform per vertex, driven by a [per_vertex] table.

ShapeCollage

Flat opaque elements painted on their own paper, composited in painter order in one fullscreen distance-field pass (ADR-0123). The engine’s first graphic world rather than a luminous one: the only system in which one object is genuinely in front of another.

AnalyticField

One fullscreen pass whose output is a closed-form function of position (ADR-0180 rule 1): the Chladni plate, and every later stateless per-pixel world, as a [field] family rather than a system each.

Cellular

A discrete cellular automaton on a ping-pong grid (ADR-0180 rule 1, ADR-0012): every grid rule — birth/survival, larger neighbourhoods, the cyclic automaton — as a [cellular] family rather than a system each.

Plexus

Points in 3D joined by a line wherever two lie within a link distance, seen through the shared perspective camera (ADR-0257): every arrangement of the points as a [plexus] layout rather than a system each.

Implementations

impl SystemKind

pub const VARIANT_COUNT: usize = 15

How many variants SystemKind has. Kept honest by row: a new variant fails the build there until it is rostered, and TABLE is typed off this count, so bumping the count without adding a row does not compile either. Both are module-private, so this names them rather than linking them.

pub const ALL: [SystemKind; 15]

Every SystemKind, in the order the engine builds their scenes. The scene factory (render::scenes::create_all) and the golden drift guard both iterate this rather than keeping lists of their own.

Typed [SystemKind; VARIANT_COUNT], so a roster that has drifted from the variant count is a compile error, not a test failure.

pub fn from_name(name: &str) -> Option<Self>

Parse a canonical system name (as written in a preset’s system = "..." field) into its SystemKind, or None if unknown. The inverse of SystemKind::as_str; the shot CLI reuses the pair so it declares no match of its own.

pub fn as_str(self) -> &'static str

The canonical name of this system – the exact string SystemKind::from_name accepts and a preset writes in its system field.

pub fn family(self) -> &'static str

The family this system’s library presets are named for: the filename prefix, up to the first _, of every presets/*.toml that drives it (collage for shape_collage).

One _-separated segment of SystemKind::as_str, and unique across systems — both checked at compile time. The editor’s schema association and ritmolux --check’s file-name rule both read it, so a filename the checker accepts is one the editor gives that system’s schema.

pub fn param_specs(self) -> &'static [ParamSpec]

The parameters this system’s scene consumes, as the scene declares them (the module-private TABLE).

The specs carry the default and the doc line as well as the name (ADR-0170), which is what lets the generated reference in presets/README.md be derived from the same declaration the loader checks a binding against.

pub fn param_names(self) -> Vec<&'static str>

Just the names, for a caller that wants to print or join them.

Allocates. Use declares for a membership test, which is what almost every caller actually wants.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for SystemKind

fn clone(&self) -> SystemKind

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for SystemKind

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl PartialEq for SystemKind

fn eq(&self, other: &SystemKind) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.
