Enum FramePhase

Namespace: MicroEngine.Kernel
Assembly: MicroEngine.Kernel.dll
Guide: Modules and the frame schedule

The phases of a frame, in the order they run. The four fixed phases (PreFixed, FixedUpdate, Physics, PostFixed) run once per fixed step, zero or more times a frame as time calls for (TimeSettings); every other phase runs once per frame.

C#

public enum FramePhase

Fields

BeginFrame = 0

First, once per frame: bookkeeping before anything reads the frame (finishing background loads).

EndFrame = 11

Last, once per frame.

Extract = 8

Once per frame: copying what will be drawn out of the simulation.

FixedUpdate = 3

Once per fixed step: the simulation (scenes and game rules).

Input = 1

Once per frame, after the platform’s events were read: input that follows the display rate (touch controls).

LateUpdate = 7

Once per frame, after Update: what must see everything updated first.

Physics = 4

Once per fixed step, after FixedUpdate: physics and collision.

PostFixed = 5

Once per fixed step, last: what follows the simulated state (audio, toasts, saving, resetting input edges).

PreFixed = 2

Once per fixed step, before the simulation: sampling the input the step reads.

Present = 10

Once per frame: presenting the drawn frame.

Render = 9

Once per frame: drawing.

Update = 6

Once per frame, after the frame’s steps, at the display’s rate: camera smoothing, UI animation, interpolation.
