◆ GetEntitiesWithComponentInRect()

template<typename Filter = DefaultComponentFilter>

std::vector< entity_id_t > EntitySelection::GetEntitiesWithComponentInRect	(	CSimulation2 &	simulation,
		int	cid,
		const CCamera &	camera,
		int	sx0,
		int	sy0,
		int	sx1,
		int	sy1
	)

std::vector< entity_id_t > EntitySelection::PickEntitiesInRect	(	CSimulation2 &	simulation,
		const CCamera &	camera,
		int	sx0,
		int	sy0,
		int	sx1,
		int	sy1,
		player_id_t	owner,
		bool	allowEditorSelectables
	)

Finds all selectable entities within the given screen coordinate rectangle, belonging to the given player.

Used for bandboxing.

Parameters

camera	use this view to convert screen to world coordinates.
sx0,sy0,sx1,sy1	diagonally opposite corners of the rectangle in 2D screen coordinates.
owner	player whose entities we are selecting. Ownership is ignored if INVALID_PLAYER is used.
allowEditorSelectables	if true, all entities with the ICmpSelectable interface will be selected (including decorative actors), else only those selectable ingame.

entity_id_t EntitySelection::PickEntityAtPoint	(	CSimulation2 &	simulation,
		const CCamera &	camera,
		int	screenX,
		int	screenY,
		player_id_t	player,
		bool	allowEditorSelectables
	)

Finds all selectable entities under the given screen coordinates.

Parameters

camera	use this view to convert screen to world coordinates.
screenX,screenY	2D screen coordinates.
player	player whose LOS will be used when selecting entities. In Atlas this value is ignored as the whole map is revealed.
allowEditorSelectables	if true, all entities with the ICmpSelectable interface will be selected (including decorative actors), else only those selectable ingame.
range	Approximate range to check for entity in.

std::vector< entity_id_t > EntitySelection::PickNonGaiaEntitiesInRect	(	CSimulation2 &	simulation,
		const CCamera &	camera,
		int	sx0,
		int	sy0,
		int	sx1,
		int	sy1,
		bool	allowEditorSelectables
	)

Finds all selectable entities within the given screen coordinate rectangle, belonging to any given player (excluding Gaia).

Used for status bars.

std::vector< entity_id_t > EntitySelection::PickSimilarEntities	(	CSimulation2 &	simulation,
		const CCamera &	camera,
		const std::string &	templateName,
		player_id_t	owner,
		bool	includeOffScreen,
		bool	matchRank,
		bool	allowEditorSelectables,
		bool	allowFoundations
	)

Finds all entities with the given entity template name, belonging to the given player.

Parameters

camera	use this view to convert screen to world coordinates.
templateName	the name of the template to match, or the selection group name for similar matching.
owner	player whose entities we are selecting. Ownership is ignored if INVALID_PLAYER is used.
includeOffScreen	if true, then all entities visible in the world will be selected, else only entities visible to the camera will be selected.
matchRank	if true, only entities that exactly match templateName will be selected, else entities with matching SelectionGroupName will be selected.
allowEditorSelectables	if true, all entities with the ICmpSelectable interface will be selected (including decorative actors), else only those selectable in-game.
allowFoundations	if true, foundations are also included in the results. Only takes effect when matchRank = true.
