Drawing Sprites with Artemis I am trying to trace the StarWarrior code (the Artemis tutorial). I cannot figure out how these sprites are being drawn. This is the code where the player's ship is initialized lt summary gt The initialize player ship. lt summary gt private void InitializePlayerShip() Entity entity this.entityWorld.CreateEntity() entity.Group "SHIPS" entity.AddComponentFromPool lt TransformComponent gt () entity.AddComponent(new SpatialFormComponent("PlayerShip")) entity.AddComponent(new HealthComponent(30)) entity.GetComponent lt TransformComponent gt ().X this.GraphicsDevice.Viewport.Width 0.5f entity.GetComponent lt TransformComponent gt ().Y this.GraphicsDevice.Viewport.Height 50 entity.Tag "PLAYER" Which line of code actually leads to the ship being drawn? The drawing takes place in PlayerShip.cs. Here is a commented version of the code with what I think is happening lt summary gt The initialize player ship. lt summary gt private void InitializePlayerShip() Entity entity this.entityWorld.CreateEntity() declare and initialize entity entity.Group "SHIPS" Unused label entity.AddComponentFromPool lt TransformComponent gt () Add the component to store X and Y entity.AddComponent(new SpatialFormComponent("PlayerShip")) Add a component which is just a String (perhaps this has something to do with PlayerShip.cs?) entity.AddComponent(new HealthComponent(30)) Add a health component with 30 hp entity.GetComponent lt TransformComponent gt ().X this.GraphicsDevice.Viewport.Width 0.5f Initialize the TransformComponent's X entity.GetComponent lt TransformComponent gt ().Y this.GraphicsDevice.Viewport.Height 50 Initialize the TransformComponent's Y entity.Tag "PLAYER" Unused label So how is the actual sprite being drawn? Because, I am not seeing it. ( If it is being drawn by entityWorld.Draw() in the Draw() method, then which line(s) of code put it in the world to be drawn? Or what is actually happening in entityWorld.Draw()? I believe the RenderSystem is the one that is doing the drawing, but I don't get how it is being called. I am sorry for the uninformed question, but I have made no progress after about 12 hours, and I desperately need some guidance!
