structure.md

To structure a 2D game engine using a message bus, an entity component system, and SFML with C++, we can follow these steps:

1. Create a message bus class to manage the communication between different parts of the game engine. The message bus should have methods for adding, removing, and sending messages to different components of the game engine.
2. Create an entity component system to manage the different objects in the game world. The entity component system should have a class for entities, which are the objects in the game world, and a class for components, which are the different attributes of the entities.
3. Create classes for the different components of the game engine, such as the graphics, audio, input, and physics components. These components should be able to receive and handle messages from the message bus, and update the entities in the game world accordingly.
4. Create a main game loop to update and render the game world. The game loop should use SFML to handle the window and event handling, and use the message bus to communicate with the different components of the game engine.
5. In the main game loop, update the entities in the game world by calling the update methods of the different components, using the message bus to communicate between the components.
6. In the main game loop, render the game world by calling the render methods of the graphics component, using SFML to draw the entities on the screen.

This structure will allow the game engine to be modular and scalable, using the message bus and entity component system to manage the different parts of the game engine and SFML to handle the graphics and event handling.
