Text Rendering

Definition of generated meshes with UV coordinates pointing to glyphs from fonts.

Usage

Text rendering happens in 3D space like rendering other meshes. Each of them require a text mesh, material and a camera (similar to regular renderers). The text mesh itself requires a font and the text content.

using World world = new();
Font font = ...
TextMesh textMesh = new(world, "Hello, World!", font);
while (!textMesh.Is())
{
    world.Submit(new DataUpdate());
    world.Submit(new FontUpdate());
    world.Submit(new RenderUpdate());
    world.Poll();
}

Material textMaterial = ...
TextRenderer textRenderer = new(world, textMesh, textMaterial, camera);
Entity textRendererEntity = textRenderer;

The material is expected to have a sampler2D at binding 0 for the font atlas. The remaining is up to you.
