I've been working on more of my ECS framework, and I've got it to a pretty nice place. Here is what the player's pistol weapon looks like:

Code:

Transform:

ChildTransform:
  localPosition: [0.3125, -0.125]

Description:
  name: "pistol.yml"

SpriteDriver:
  spriteName: pistol
  idleTagName: "idle"
  layer: 4

Gun:
  fireRate: 0.2
  spawnOffset: [0, 0.0625]
  projectileSpeed: 20
  projectileEntity: "pistol_bullet"
  shootSoundEvent: "event:/Weapon/Pistol/Shoot"

And the "pistol_bullet" entity:

Code:

Transform:

SpriteDriver:
  spriteName: pistol
  layer: 4

Light:
  color: [0.51, 0.94, 0.65]
  brightness: 0.1

Physics:
  extents: [0.15625, 0.0625]
  collisionOffset: [0, 0]
  gravityScale: 0
  category: 0x04
  mask: 0x02
  
Bullet:
  deathAnimationName: "impact"
  damage: 1

And in action:

As a side note, for some reason gfycat seems to be encoding my gifs really dark compared to what I actually see. Anyone else having this issue? It might be unique to my game since it is a bit on the darker side.
