CLogic.Conditional
The CLogic Conditional system provides an inteface through which certain states can be evaluated to check whether a condition is met. It helps reduce tight coupling of related systems.
For example, a sprinting system might require the player to have greater than X amount of health and/or greater than Y amount of stamina. Instead of checking for them individually, you can evaluate a conditional that will do the required check.
Usage
At its core, there are 2 ways to use the system
- Using the interface
IConditional - Using the ScriptableObject Architecture Pattern (SOAP)
For more details on SOAP, feel free to read this article by Simon Nordon
Using IConditional
The IConditional interface is ultimately what this library provides. The interface exposes a public bool Evaluate() contract
that inheritors can edit to whatever kind of logic.
Using SOAP
The library also exposes an abstract class ConditionalEvaluator that scriptableobjects can inherit from. The use-case above
remains the same as it also implements IConditional. This is useful in cases where your consumer only needs information about the condition.
SOAP allows you to simply slot it in the required field.
That's about it.
