Class ContentQueries

Namespace

GrindFest.Content

Assembly

GrindFest.dll

Allocation-free indexes over ContentDB — the queries that replace Addressables.LoadAssetsAsync(label) in gameplay code (plan P3).

Why indexes instead of filtering on demand: the callers are hot paths (a loot roll, a spawn table pick) and the project forbids LINQ/allocation churn there. Indexes are rebuilt lazily after each content (re)load, so a mod reload is picked up without restarting.

Nothing here touches an asset: every answer comes from the generated index, which is the whole point (values without prefabs).

ContentQueries

Methods

Invalidate()

Marks the indexes stale; the next query rebuilds them.

ItemsOfLootCategory(string, int)

Items in a loot category (single flag name, e.g. "Weapon") at a quality level.

ItemsOfQuality(int)

Items of a quality level (never null).

MonstersOfRank(string)

Monsters of a rank ("Normal", "Elite", "Boss", …) — the rank comes from MonsterRankBehaviour.

Pick(IReadOnlyList<ContentDef>, Random)

Picks one entry with the game's deterministic random (never returns an item when the list is empty). Takes the Random explicitly so callers keep using the synchronised generator.

WeaponsOfQuality(int)

Weapons of a quality level (never null).
