# About 3D-Spaces This library implements a number of spatial query data structures; structures that can answer spatial range queries for optimised lookup, particularly suited for games. Often this is used to implement a "broad phase search". ## How To The library defines a core protocol which every structure (called a ``container``) must implement. Every container may also expose additional operations or properties, but it is not required to do so. The library //does not// provide any object implementations. Instead it is expected that you implement ``location`` and ``bsize`` or ``radius`` for your objects to describe their bounding volumes, which the containers will then make use of. The following shows a very basic use: :: common lisp (defclass box () ((location :initarg :location :initform (vec 0 0 0) :accessor space:location) (bsize :initarg :bsize :initform (vec 0 0 0) :accessor space:bsize))) (defun box (&optional (location (vec 0 0 0)) (bsize (vec 0 0 0))) (make-instance 'box :location location :bsize bsize)) (defvar *bvh2* (org.shirakumo.fraf.trial.space.bvh2:make-bvh)) (space:enter (box (vec 10 10 10) (vec 1 2 3)) *bvh2*) (space:do-all (object *bvh2*) (print object)) (space:do-overlapping (object *bvh2* (space:region 0 0 0 11 11 11)) (print object)) (space:do-contained (object *bvh2* (space:region 0 0 0 11 11 11)) (print object)) (describe *bvh2*) (space:clear *bvh2*) :: Every container also implements "For"(https://shinmera.github.io/for)'s iteration protocol, allowing you to iterate over the containers in an opaque way. ## Supported Structures The library supports the following structure types at this point: - ``org.shirakumo.fraf.trial.space.bvh2:bvh`` A 2D bounding volume hierarchy. You may want to occasionally use ``reoptimize`` to rebalance the tree. The BVH has no size constraints. - ``org.shirakumo.fraf.trial.space.quadtree:quadtree`` A 2D quadtree. The tree will automatically expand and resize as objects are added to it. - ``org.shirakumo.fraf.trial.space.grid3:grid`` A 3D grid. The grid will *not* expand or resize automatically, nor estimate a good grid cell size. It is up to you to specify these properties as suitable for your use case. You may however call ``reoptimize`` at any time to change the grid shape. - ``org.shirakumo.fraf.trial.space.kd-tree:kd-tree`` A kd-tree. The tree can be created for either, 1, 2, or 3 dimensional spaces. Since the kd-tree is specified on splitting planes, it has no bounded size. Please see their respective packages for additional supported operations. ## New Structures In order to add a new structure, you must: 1. Create a new package to hold your structure functions 2. Create a subtype of ``container`` 3. Implement ``enter``, ``leave``, ``clear``, and ``call-with-overlapping`` And ideally you should also: - Implement ``call-with-all``, ``call-with-candidates``, ``call-with-contained``, ``call-with-intersecting`` - Implement ``update``, ``check``, ``reoptimize`` - Implement ``serialize``, ``deserialize`` - Implement ``for:make-iterator``, ``for:step-functions`` - Implement ``print-object``, ``describe-object``
