# ManagedBehaviour Lifecycle System - Implementation Roadmap

**Project:** AppleHills  
**Start Date:** [TBD]  
**Target:** Option B+ (Streamlined ManagedBehaviour with Orchestrated Scene Transitions)  
**End Goal:** Remove BootCompletionService and all legacy lifecycle patterns

---

## Overview

This roadmap outlines the step-by-step implementation of the ManagedBehaviour lifecycle system. The work is divided into **4 phases** that can be completed over 6-8 days.

**⚠️ PHASE 1 UPDATES (Nov 3, 2025):**
- **REMOVED:** LifecycleFlags enum - all components now participate in ALL lifecycle hooks by default
- **REMOVED:** ActiveLifecyclePhases property - no opt-in/opt-out needed
- **REMOVED:** ISaveParticipant auto-registration - save/load now built directly into ManagedBehaviour
- **SIMPLIFIED:** Registration logic - just add to all lists, no flag checking

**Final State:**
- ✅ LifecycleManager as single source of truth
- ✅ ManagedBehaviour as standard base class
- ✅ SceneManagerService orchestrates scene transitions
- ❌ BootCompletionService removed
- ❌ All RegisterInitAction calls eliminated
- ❌ All InitializePostBoot methods converted

---

## Migration Guidelines (Reference)

### Pattern 1: Simple BootCompletionService Replacement
```csharp
// OLD
void Awake() {
    BootCompletionService.RegisterInitAction(InitializePostBoot);
}
private void InitializePostBoot() {
    // initialization code
}

// NEW
public override int ManagedAwakePriority => [appropriate priority];
protected override void OnManagedAwake() {
    // initialization code
}
```

### Pattern 2: Scene-Dependent Initialization
```csharp
// OLD
void Start() {
    BootCompletionService.RegisterInitAction(() => {
        SceneManagerService.Instance.SceneLoadCompleted += OnSceneLoaded;
    });
}

// NEW  
protected override void OnSceneReady() {
    // Scene is ready, managers available
}
```

### Pattern 3: SaveableInteractable (like MinigameSwitch)
```csharp
// Already inherits from SaveableInteractable
// Just remove BootCompletionService calls
protected override void Start() {
    base.Start();
    
    // Direct subscription, no BootCompletionService needed
    if (PuzzleManager.Instance != null) {
        PuzzleManager.Instance.OnAllPuzzlesComplete += HandleComplete;
    }
}
```

---

## Phase 5: Post-Migration Enhancements ⏳ **NEXT STEPS**

**All 4 core phases completed!** The lifecycle system is fully operational and BootCompletionService has been removed.

### Recommended Next Steps (Priority Order)

#### Immediate (This Week)
1. ✅ **Playtest the game** - Verify no regressions from migration
2. 📝 **Update lifecycle_technical_review.md** - Mark as fully implemented (~30 min)
3. 📝 **Update bootstrap_readme.md** - Remove BootCompletionService references (~20 min)
4. 🔍 **Verify UIPage subclasses** - Ensure all 5 work correctly with new base class (~15 min)

#### Short-term (Next 1-2 Weeks) - Optional Improvements
5. 📊 **Profile lifecycle overhead** - Measure performance impact (~1 hour)
6. 🔄 **Continue migration** - Move remaining MonoBehaviours to ManagedBehaviour as needed
7. 📝 **Create migration guide** - Document patterns for future components (~1 hour)
8. 🎨 **Add lifecycle debugging tools** - Editor visualization for priorities (~2-4 hours)

#### Medium-term - Enhancement Ideas
9. ✨ **Advanced features** - Async lifecycle hooks, conditional execution, etc.
10. 📚 **Comprehensive documentation** - Architecture guides, ADRs, diagrams
11. 🧪 **Automated testing** - Unit tests for LifecycleManager
12. 🎯 **Performance optimization** - Cache sorted lists, reduce allocations

### Components That Could Still Benefit from Migration

**High Value (Manual event cleanup needed):**
- Remaining Interactable subclasses with event subscriptions
- Camera systems that subscribe to player events
- Any MonoBehaviour with complex initialization dependencies

**Medium Value (Nice to have):**
- UIPage subclasses that need OnSceneReady (though they now inherit it)
- Player/NPC controllers with initialization order requirements
- Collectible/Pickup systems

**Low Priority (Keep as MonoBehaviour):**
- Simple visual effects
- Basic trigger volumes
- One-off utility scripts
- Third-party library components

### Success Criteria ✅

All original goals achieved:
- ✅ LifecycleManager as single source of truth
- ✅ ManagedBehaviour as standard base class  
- ✅ SceneManagerService orchestrates transitions
- ✅ BootCompletionService removed completely
- ✅ All RegisterInitAction calls eliminated
- ✅ All InitializePostBoot methods converted
- ✅ 20 components successfully migrated
- ✅ Clean, maintainable codebase

---
4. **Final validation pass** - 20 minutes

**Estimated remaining time:** 1-2 hours

---

## Lessons Learned

### What Worked Well ✅
- ManagedBehaviour base class provides clean abstraction
- Priority-based execution ensures correct initialization order
- OnSceneReady hook eliminates timing issues
- AutoRegisterPausable eliminates manual GameManager registration
- Most migrations were straightforward

### Challenges Encountered ⚠️
- File corruption during batch edits (need more careful edits)
- Multiple inheritance conflicts (StateMachine + ManagedBehaviour)
- Need better error recovery when edits fail

### Recommendations for Future
- Migrate files one at a time, verify each before moving on
- Use git checkpoints between migrations
- Test after each file migration
- Have clear rollback strategy

---

#### 2.2 Implement LifecycleManager Broadcast Methods ✅

**Tasks:**
- [x] Implement `OnBootCompletionTriggered()`
- [x] Implement `BroadcastManagedAwake()`
- [x] Implement `BroadcastSceneUnloading(string sceneName)`
- [x] Implement `BroadcastSaveRequested(string sceneName)`
- [x] Implement `BroadcastSceneReady(string sceneName)`
- [x] Implement `BroadcastRestoreRequested(string sceneName)`
- [x] **NOTE:** `BroadcastManagedDestroy()` not needed - called automatically via Unity's OnDestroy

**Validation:** ✅ Can call broadcast methods, logging shows correct order

---

#### 2.3 Implement Auto-Registration Helper ✅

**Tasks:**
- [x] Implement private `HandleAutoRegistrations(ManagedBehaviour component)`
- [x] Check `AutoRegisterPausable` and call `GameManager.Instance.RegisterPausableComponent()`
- [x] **REMOVED:** AutoRegisterSaveParticipant check - using OnSaveRequested/OnRestoreRequested instead
- [x] Add null checks for manager instances

**Validation:** ✅ Auto-registration called during BroadcastManagedAwake

---

#### 2.4 Complete ManagedBehaviour Implementation ✅

**Tasks:**
- [x] Implement `protected virtual void Awake()`
- [x] Implement `protected virtual void OnDestroy()`
- [x] Auto-unregister from GameManager if IPausable registered
- [x] **REMOVED:** Auto-unregister from SaveLoadManager
- [x] Implement `RegisterManagedEvent()`

**Validation:** ✅ Create test ManagedBehaviour, verify register/unregister cycle works

---

#### 2.5 Inject LifecycleManager into Bootstrap ✅

**Tasks:**
- [x] Add `CreateInstance()` static method to LifecycleManager
- [x] Call `LifecycleManager.CreateInstance()` at start of `CustomBoot.Initialise()`
- [x] Ensure it's called BEFORE any bootstrap logic begins
- [x] LifecycleManager persists via DontDestroyOnLoad

**Validation:** ✅ LifecycleManager exists when bootstrap completes, singleton works

**Note:** No prefab needed - LifecycleManager created programmatically by CustomBoot

---

## Phase 2: Integration with Existing Systems (Day 3) ✅ **COMPLETED**

**Goal:** Connect LifecycleManager to existing bootstrap and save/load systems

### Day 3: Bootstrap & Managers Integration ✅

#### 3.1 Modify BootCompletionService ✅
**Location:** `Assets/Scripts/Bootstrap/BootCompletionService.cs`

**Tasks:**
- [x] In `HandleBootCompleted()`, before executing initialization actions:
  - Add: `LifecycleManager.Instance?.OnBootCompletionTriggered()`
  - Add null check and warning if LifecycleManager not found
- [x] Add using directive for `Core.Lifecycle`
- [x] Keep all existing functionality (backward compatibility)

**Validation:** ✅ Boot still works, BootCompletionService triggers LifecycleManager

---

#### 3.2 Extend SaveLoadManager ⚠️ **SKIPPED**
**Location:** `Assets/Scripts/Core/SaveLoad/SaveLoadManager.cs`

**Status:** NOT NEEDED - We removed ISaveParticipant auto-registration pattern. Save/load now handled via:
- **Level-specific data:** ManagedBehaviour.OnSaveRequested() / OnRestoreRequested() hooks
- **Global data:** Existing ISaveParticipant pattern (manual registration still supported)

**Tasks:**
- [x] ~~Add AutoRegisterParticipant/AutoUnregisterParticipant methods~~ - NOT NEEDED

---

#### 3.3 Extend GameManager ✅
**Location:** `Assets/Scripts/Core/GameManager.cs`

**Status:** Already has required methods `RegisterPausableComponent()` and `UnregisterPausableComponent()`
- LifecycleManager calls these methods directly from `HandleAutoRegistrations()`
- ManagedBehaviour auto-unregisters in `OnDestroy()`

**Tasks:**
- [x] ~~Add AutoRegisterPausable/AutoUnregisterPausable methods~~ - NOT NEEDED (using existing methods)

---

#### 3.4 Enhance SceneManagerService ✅
**Location:** `Assets/Scripts/Core/SceneManagerService.cs`

**Tasks:**
- [x] Add using directive for `Core.Lifecycle`
- [x] In `SwitchSceneAsync()` before unloading old scene:
  - Call `LifecycleManager.Instance?.BroadcastSaveRequested(CurrentGameplayScene)`
  - Call `LifecycleManager.Instance?.BroadcastSceneUnloading(CurrentGameplayScene)`
- [x] In `SwitchSceneAsync()` after loading new scene:
  - Call `LifecycleManager.Instance?.BroadcastRestoreRequested(newSceneName)`
  - Call `LifecycleManager.Instance?.BroadcastSceneReady(newSceneName)`
- [x] Proper ordering ensures save → unload → load → restore → ready

**Validation:** ✅ Scene transitions work, lifecycle events broadcast in correct order

---

## Phase 3: Scene Orchestration & Examples (Days 4-5) 🔄 **NEXT UP**

**Goal:** Create examples and documentation for the lifecycle system

### Day 4: Scene Lifecycle Integration ✅ **ALREADY COMPLETE**

#### 4.1 Enhance SceneManagerService.SwitchSceneAsync() ✅
**Location:** `Assets/Scripts/Core/SceneManagerService.cs`

**Status:** ✅ Already implemented in Phase 2
- SaveRequested and SceneUnloading called before unload
- RestoreRequested and SceneReady called after load
- Proper ordering maintained

---

### Day 5: Examples & Documentation ⏳ **TODO**

#### 5.1 Create Example Implementations
**Location:** `Assets/Scripts/Core/Lifecycle/Examples/`

**Tasks:**
- [ ] BACKUP current `SwitchSceneAsync()` implementation (comment out or copy to temp file)
- [ ] Rewrite `SwitchSceneAsync()` with orchestration:
  ```csharp
  public async Task SwitchSceneAsync(string newSceneName, IProgress<float> progress = null, bool autoHideLoadingScreen = true)
  {
      // PHASE 1: Show loading screen
      if (_loadingScreen != null && !_loadingScreen.IsActive)
      {
          _loadingScreen.ShowLoadingScreen(() => GetSceneTransitionProgress());
      }
      
      string oldSceneName = CurrentGameplayScene;
      
      // PHASE 2: Pre-unload (lifecycle hooks for cleanup)
      LifecycleManager.Instance?.BroadcastSceneUnloading(oldSceneName);
      
      // PHASE 3: Save level-specific data
      LifecycleManager.Instance?.BroadcastSaveRequested(oldSceneName);
      
      // PHASE 4: Save global game state
      if (SaveLoadManager.Instance != null && 
          DeveloperSettingsProvider.Instance.GetSettings<DebugSettings>().useSaveLoadSystem)
      {
          SaveLoadManager.Instance.Save();
      }
      
      // PHASE 5: Unload old scene
      // Remove AstarPath singletons (existing code)
      var astarPaths = FindObjectsByType<AstarPath>(FindObjectsSortMode.None);
      foreach (var astar in astarPaths)
      {
          if (Application.isPlaying) Destroy(astar.gameObject);
          else DestroyImmediate(astar.gameObject);
      }
      
      if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(CurrentGameplayScene) && CurrentGameplayScene != BootstrapSceneName)
      {
          var prevScene = SceneManager.GetSceneByName(CurrentGameplayScene);
          if (prevScene.isLoaded)
          {
              await UnloadSceneAsync(CurrentGameplayScene);
              // Unity calls OnDestroy → OnManagedDestroy() automatically
          }
      }
      
      // PHASE 6: Load new scene
      var bootstrap = SceneManager.GetSceneByName(BootstrapSceneName);
      if (!bootstrap.isLoaded)
      {
          SceneManager.LoadScene(BootstrapSceneName, LoadSceneMode.Additive);
      }
      
      await LoadSceneAsync(newSceneName, progress);
      CurrentGameplayScene = newSceneName;
      
      // PHASE 7: Initialize new scene
      LifecycleManager.Instance?.BroadcastSceneReady(newSceneName);
      // ManagedBehaviours register during Awake, late registration calls OnManagedAwake immediately
      
      // PHASE 8: Restore level-specific data
      LifecycleManager.Instance?.BroadcastRestoreRequested(newSceneName);
      // SaveLoadManager automatically restores ISaveParticipant data (global)
      
      // PHASE 9: Hide loading screen
      if (autoHideLoadingScreen && _loadingScreen != null)
      {
          _loadingScreen.HideLoadingScreen();
      }
  }
  ```

## Completion Checklist

### Phase 1: Core Infrastructure
- [x] LifecycleEnums.cs created (LifecycleFlags REMOVED - all components participate in all hooks)
- [x] ManagedEventSubscription.cs created
- [x] ManagedBehaviour.cs created (ActiveLifecyclePhases REMOVED, AutoRegisterSaveParticipant REMOVED)
- [x] LifecycleManager.cs created (flags checking REMOVED, simplified registration)
- [x] LifecycleManager injected into CustomBoot.Initialise() - created before bootstrap begins
- [x] All core classes compile and tested

### Phase 2: Integration
- [ ] BootCompletionService triggers LifecycleManager
- [ ] SaveLoadManager auto-registration implemented
- [ ] GameManager auto-registration implemented
- [ ] SceneManagerService enhanced with orchestration

### Phase 3: Scene Orchestration
- [ ] SceneManagerService.SwitchSceneAsync() orchestrates full flow
- [ ] Example implementations created
- [ ] Migration guide written
- [ ] Full testing completed

### Phase 4: Migration & Cleanup
- [ ] Core systems migrated (GameManager, SceneManagerService, SaveLoadManager)
- [ ] UI systems migrated (5+ files)
- [ ] Gameplay systems migrated (7+ files)
- [ ] BootCompletionService removed
- [ ] All legacy patterns eliminated
- [ ] Documentation updated

## Rollback Plan

If critical issues arise:

1. **During Phase 1-2:** Simply don't call LifecycleManager, existing systems still work
2. **During Phase 3:** Revert SceneManagerService.SwitchSceneAsync() from backup
3. **During Phase 4:** Keep BootCompletionService, revert migrated components one by one

## Notes & Decisions Log

**Date** | **Decision** | **Rationale**
---------|--------------|---------------
[TBD] | Approved Option B+ | Best balance for 6-month project with scene orchestration needs
[TBD] | SceneTransitionOrchestrator removed | Logic integrated into SceneManagerService instead
[TBD] | BootCompletionService to be deprecated | Goal is complete removal after migration
