## Basic Usage

### Installation and Setup

1. Copy the `addons/long_scene_manager` folder into your project's `addons` folder
2. Enable the plugin in Godot:
   - Go to `Project → Project Settings → Plugins`
   - Find "Long Scene Manager" and set its status to "Enabled"
3. The plugin will automatically register as an Autoload singleton:
   - **GDScript version**: Access name is `LongSceneManager`
   - **C# version**: Access name is `LongSceneManagerCs`

> **Note**: Both versions have identical functionality. Which one to use depends on your project's language environment. The GDScript version works out of the box, while the C# version requires your project to have C# support (.NET) configured.

### Plugin Configuration (Exported Variables)

Select the `LongSceneManager` node in the editor to configure the following parameters in the inspector:

| Variable | Type | Default | Description |
|----------|------|---------|-------------|
| `max_cache_size` | int (1~20) | 4 | Maximum instance cache capacity; LRU eviction when exceeded |
| `max_temp_preload_resource_cache_size` | int (1~50) | 8 | Maximum temp preload resource cache capacity; FIFO eviction when exceeded |
| `max_fixed_preload_resource_cache_size` | int (0~50) | 4 | Maximum fixed preload resource cache capacity; FIFO eviction when exceeded |
| `use_async_loading` | bool | true | Whether to use async loading (recommended) |
| `always_use_default_load_screen` | bool | false | Whether to force using the default loading screen |
| `instantiate_frames` | int (1~10) | 3 | Number of frames to delay during scene instantiation |

### GDScript Usage

```gdscript
# Access singleton
var manager = LongSceneManager

# Scene switching
manager.switch_scene("res://scenes/level_02.tscn")

# Preloading
manager.preload_scene("res://scenes/level_02.tscn")

# Get cache info
var info = manager.get_cache_info()
```

### C# Usage

```csharp
// Access singleton
var manager = LongSceneManagerCs.Instance;

// Scene switching
await manager.SwitchScene("res://scenes/Level02.tscn", LongSceneManagerCs.LoadMethod.BothPreloadFirst, true, "");

// Preloading
manager.PreloadScene("res://scenes/Level02.tscn");

// Batch preloading
manager.PreloadScenes(new string[] { "res://scenes/Level02.tscn", "res://scenes/Level03.tscn" });

// Cancel preloading
manager.CancelPreloadingScene("res://scenes/Level03.tscn");

// Get cache info
var cacheInfo = manager.GetCacheInfo();

// Listen to signals
manager.SceneSwitchStarted += OnSceneSwitchStarted;
manager.SceneSwitchCompleted += OnSceneSwitchCompleted;

private void OnSceneSwitchStarted(string fromScene, string toScene)
{
    GD.Print($"Switch: {fromScene} -> {toScene}");
}

private void OnSceneSwitchCompleted(string scenePath)
{
    GD.Print($"Completed: {scenePath}");
}
```

### Basic Scene Switching

`switch_scene()` / `SwitchScene()` is the core scene switching function:

**GDScript:**
```gdscript
# Simplest switch (using default strategy and default loading screen)
LongSceneManager.switch_scene("res://scenes/level_02.tscn")

# Don't cache current scene
LongSceneManager.switch_scene("res://scenes/main_menu.tscn", LongSceneManager.LoadMethod.BOTH_PRELOAD_FIRST, false)

# Use SCENE_CACHE strategy (prioritize reusing instances)
await LongSceneManager.switch_scene("res://scenes/level_02.tscn", LongSceneManager.LoadMethod.SCENE_CACHE)

# No transition switch
LongSceneManager.switch_scene("res://scenes/level_02.tscn", LongSceneManager.LoadMethod.BOTH_PRELOAD_FIRST, true, "no_transition")
```

**C#:**
```csharp
// Simplest switch (using default strategy and default loading screen)
await LongSceneManagerCs.Instance.SwitchScene("res://scenes/Level02.tscn");

// Don't cache current scene
await LongSceneManagerCs.Instance.SwitchScene("res://scenes/MainMenu.tscn", LongSceneManagerCs.LoadMethod.BothPreloadFirst, false, "");

// Use SceneCache strategy (prioritize reusing instances)
await LongSceneManagerCs.Instance.SwitchScene("res://scenes/Level02.tscn", LongSceneManagerCs.LoadMethod.SceneCache, true, "");

// No transition switch
await LongSceneManagerCs.Instance.SwitchScene("res://scenes/Level02.tscn", LongSceneManagerCs.LoadMethod.BothPreloadFirst, true, "no_transition");
```

### Scene Preloading

Preloading allows you to load scene resources in the background ahead of time, so switching is nearly instantaneous when needed:

**GDScript:**
```gdscript
# Temp preloading: resource may be automatically evicted
LongSceneManager.preload_scene("res://scenes/level_02.tscn")

# Fixed preloading: resource won't be auto-evicted, can be instantiated multiple times
LongSceneManager.preload_scene("res://scenes/boss_fight.tscn", true)

# Batch preloading
LongSceneManager.preload_scenes(["res://scenes/level_02.tscn", "res://scenes/level_03.tscn"])

# Cancel preloading
LongSceneManager.cancel_preloading_scene("res://scenes/level_03.tscn")
```

**C#:**
```csharp
// Temp preloading: resource may be automatically evicted
LongSceneManagerCs.Instance.PreloadScene("res://scenes/Level02.tscn");

// Fixed preloading: resource won't be auto-evicted, can be instantiated multiple times
LongSceneManagerCs.Instance.PreloadScene("res://scenes/BossFight.tscn", true);

// Batch preloading
LongSceneManagerCs.Instance.PreloadScenes(new string[] { "res://scenes/Level02.tscn", "res://scenes/Level03.tscn" });

// Cancel preloading
LongSceneManagerCs.Instance.CancelPreloadingScene("res://scenes/Level03.tscn");

// Cancel all preloading
LongSceneManagerCs.Instance.CancelAllPreloading();
```

### Complete Preload + Switch Flow

**GDScript:**
```gdscript
# 1. After entering a level, preload the next level
func _on_level_01_ready():
    LongSceneManager.preload_scene("res://scenes/level_02.tscn")

# 2. Player reaches exit, switch scene
func _on_exit_reached():
    await LongSceneManager.switch_scene("res://scenes/level_02.tscn")
```

**C#:**
```csharp
// 1. After entering a level, preload the next level
public override void _Ready()
{
    LongSceneManagerCs.Instance.PreloadScene("res://scenes/Level02.tscn");
}

// 2. Player reaches exit, switch scene
private async void OnExitReached()
{
    await LongSceneManagerCs.Instance.SwitchScene("res://scenes/Level02.tscn");
}
```

## Advanced Usage

### Five Loading Strategies Explained

When switching scenes, the `load_method` parameter controls cache lookup behavior:

| Strategy | Enum Value | Lookup Order | Use Case |
|----------|-----------|--------------|----------|
| `DIRECT` | Direct load | Preload cache → direct load | Don't care about instance cache, just need the resource |
| `PRELOAD_CACHE` | Preload first | Preload cache → fallback direct load | Only use preloaded resources |
| `SCENE_CACHE` | Instance cache first | Instance cache → fallback direct load | Prioritize reusing instantiated scenes (preserve state) |
| `BOTH_PRELOAD_FIRST` | Hybrid preload first | Preload → instance → preloading → direct | **Default strategy**, recommended for most cases |
| `BOTH_INSTANCE_FIRST` | Hybrid instance first | Instance → preload → preloading → direct | Prioritize reusing scene instances (preserve state) |

> **Important**: Only when hitting the **instance cache** will an already-instantiated scene be reused. That scene will **retain its complete runtime state from before the switch**.

### Three-Tier Cache System

```
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│                    LongSceneManager                      │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│  Tier 1: Instance Cache                                  │
│  Stores: Complete scene Node + cache timestamp          │
│  Eviction: LRU (Least Recently Used)                    │
│  Default capacity: 4                                    │
│  Feature: Preserves complete runtime state before switch│
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│  Tier 2: Temp Preload Cache                             │
│  Stores: PackedScene resource                           │
│  Eviction: FIFO (First In, First Out)                  │
│  Default capacity: 8                                   │
│  Feature: Resource is removed from cache after use      │
│           (consumable)                                  │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│  Tier 3: Fixed Preload Cache                             │
│  Stores: PackedScene resource                           │
│  Eviction: FIFO (First In, First Out)                  │
│  Default capacity: 4                                   │
│  Feature: Resource remains in cache after use          │
│           (persistent)                                 │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
```

**Core Design Principle**: A scene instance is either in the scene tree (currently active) or in the cache (inactive but retained in memory). The two are strictly separated and never coexist.

### Cache Management API

**GDScript:**
```gdscript
# Clear all cache
LongSceneManager.clear_all_cache()

# Clear specific cache
LongSceneManager.clear_temp_preload_cache()  # Temp preload cache
LongSceneManager.clear_fixed_cache()          # Fixed preload cache
LongSceneManager.clear_instance_cache()       # Instance cache

# Remove single resource
LongSceneManager.remove_temp_resource("res://scenes/level_02.tscn")
LongSceneManager.remove_fixed_resource("res://scenes/shop.tscn")
LongSceneManager.remove_cached_scene("res://scenes/level_02.tscn")

# Move resource
LongSceneManager.move_to_fixed("res://scenes/boss_fight.tscn")  # Temp → Fixed
LongSceneManager.move_to_temp("res://scenes/boss_fight.tscn")   # Fixed → Temp

# Dynamically adjust cache size
LongSceneManager.set_max_cache_size(10)
```

**C#:**
```csharp
// Clear all cache
LongSceneManagerCs.Instance.ClearAllCache();

// Clear specific cache
LongSceneManagerCs.Instance.ClearTempPreloadCache();   // Temp preload cache
LongSceneManagerCs.Instance.ClearFixedCache();          // Fixed preload cache
LongSceneManagerCs.Instance.ClearInstanceCache();     // Instance cache

// Remove single resource
LongSceneManagerCs.Instance.RemoveTempResource("res://scenes/Level02.tscn");
LongSceneManagerCs.Instance.RemoveFixedResource("res://scenes/Shop.tscn");
LongSceneManagerCs.Instance.RemoveCachedScene("res://scenes/Level02.tscn");

// Move resource
LongSceneManagerCs.Instance.MoveToFixed("res://scenes/BossFight.tscn");  // Temp → Fixed
LongSceneManagerCs.Instance.MoveToTemp("res://scenes/BossFight.tscn");   // Fixed → Temp

// Dynamically adjust cache size
LongSceneManagerCs.Instance.SetMaxCacheSize(10);
```

### Signal System

**GDScript:**
```gdscript
# Listen to scene switching events
LongSceneManager.scene_switch_started.connect(_on_switch_started)
LongSceneManager.scene_switch_completed.connect(_on_switch_completed)
LongSceneManager.scene_preload_started.connect(_on_preload_started)
LongSceneManager.scene_preload_completed.connect(_on_preload_completed)
LongSceneManager.scene_cached.connect(_on_scene_cached)

# Or use auto-connect
LongSceneManager.connect_all_signals(self)
# Then implement corresponding method: _on_scene_manager_scene_switch_started()
```

**C#:**
```csharp
// Listen to scene switching events
LongSceneManagerCs.Instance.SceneSwitchStarted += OnSceneSwitchStarted;
LongSceneManagerCs.Instance.SceneSwitchCompleted += OnSceneSwitchCompleted;
LongSceneManagerCs.Instance.ScenePreloadStarted += OnScenePreloadStarted;
LongSceneManagerCs.Instance.ScenePreloadCompleted += OnScenePreloadCompleted;
LongSceneManagerCs.Instance.SceneCached += OnSceneCached;

// Unsubscribe
LongSceneManagerCs.Instance.SceneSwitchStarted -= OnSceneSwitchStarted;
```

**Available Signals:**

| Signal | Parameters | Description |
|--------|-----------|--------------|
| `scene_preload_started` | scene_path | Preloading started |
| `scene_preload_completed` | scene_path | Preloading completed |
| `scene_preload_cancelled` | scene_path | Preloading cancelled |
| `scene_switch_started` | from_scene, to_scene | Switching started |
| `scene_switch_completed` | scene_path | Switching completed |
| `scene_cached` | scene_path | Scene cached |
| `scene_removed_from_cache` | scene_path | Scene removed from cache |
| `load_screen_shown` | instance | Loading screen shown |
| `load_screen_hidden` | instance | Loading screen hidden |
| `scene_preload_failed` | scene_path | Preloading failed |
| `scene_switch_failed` | scene_path | Switching failed |

## Plugin Development Guide

### Core Design Principles

1. **Strict Separation of Scene Tree and Cache**
   - A scene instance is either in the scene tree (currently active) or in the cache
   - The two never coexist, which avoids node management chaos

2. **State Machine Driven**
   - Each scene resource goes through five states: `NOT_LOADED → LOADING → LOADED → INSTANTIATED`
   - Supports `CANCELLED` state for cancelled preloading

3. **Async First**
   - Resource loading uses `ResourceLoader.load_threaded_request()`
   - Multi-frame instantiation avoids main thread stuttering

4. **Extensible Loading Screen**
   - Supports custom loading screen scenes
   - Compatibility through method name conventions

```
switch_scene() is called
    │
    ├─► Validate scene path
    │
    ├─► Emit scene_switch_started signal
    │
    ├─► Get loading screen instance
    │
    ├─► Show loading screen (_show_load_screen)
    │       │
    │       ├─► Set visibility

    ├─► Hide loading screen (_hide_load_screen)
    │       │
    │       ├─► Call fade_out() or hide_loading()
    │       │
    │       └─► Cleanup custom loading screen
    │
    └─► Emit scene_switch_completed signal
```

#### Preloading Flow

```
preload_scene() is called
    │
    ├─► Check if already in cache or loading
    │
    ├─► Create preload state (LoadState.LOADING)
    │
    ├─► Emit scene_preload_started signal
    │
    └─► Start background preload (_preload_background)
            │
            ├─► Async mode: ResourceLoader.load_threaded_request()
            │       │
            │       └─► Poll status until LOADED
            │
            └─► Sync mode: Direct load()
                    │
                    └─► Store to preload cache
                            │
                            ├─► Temp cache (FIFO eviction)
                            └─► Fixed cache (persistent)
```

### Key Data Structures

#### LoadState Enum

```gdscript
enum LoadState {
    NOT_LOADED,      # Initial state
    LOADING,         # Async loading in progress
    LOADED,          # Resource loaded (not instantiated)
    INSTANTIATED,    # Instantiated (in instance cache)
    CANCELLED        # Preloading cancelled
}
```

#### CachedScene Internal Class

```gdscript
class CachedScene:
    var scene_instance: Node   # Scene instance
    var cached_time: float     # Cache timestamp

func _init(scene: Node):
        scene_instance = scene
        cached_time = Time.get_unix_time_from_system()
```

#### Cache State Dictionary

```gdscript
# Instance cache structure
instantiate_scene_cache = {
    "res://scenes/level_01.tscn": CachedScene,
    "res://scenes/level_02.tscn": CachedScene
}
instantiate_scene_cache_order = ["level_01", "level_02"]  # LRU order

# Preload resource cache structure
temp_preloaded_resource_cache = {
    "res://scenes/level_03.tscn": PackedScene
}
temp_preloaded_resource_cache_order = ["level_03"]  # FIFO order

fixed_preload_resource_cache = {
    "res://scenes/boss.tscn": PackedScene
}

# Preload state
_preload_resource_states = {
    "res://scenes/level_01.tscn": {
        "state": LoadState.LOADED,
        "resource": PackedScene,
        "fixed": false
    }
}
```

## Loading Screen Customization

### Using Default Loading Screen

```gdscript
# Empty string or "default" uses default black screen
await LongSceneManager.switch_scene("res://scenes/level_02.tscn", LoadMethod.BOTH_PRELOAD_FIRST, true, "")
```

### Creating Custom Loading Screen

A custom loading screen scene should implement the following methods (optional, implement as needed):

```gdscript
extends CanvasLayer

@onready var progress_bar: ProgressBar = $ProgressBar

func fade_in():
    # Fade in animation when showing
    var tween = create_tween()
    tween.tween_property(self, "modulate:a", 1.0, 0.3)

func fade_out():
    # Fade out animation when hiding
    var tween = create_tween()
    tween.tween_property(self, "modulate:a", 0.0, 0.3)

func set_progress(progress: float):
    # Update progress (0.0 ~ 1.0)
    progress_bar.value = progress * 100.0
```

### Using Custom Loading Screen

```gdscript
await LongSceneManager.switch_scene(
    "res://scenes/level_02.tscn",
    LoadMethod.BOTH_PRELOAD_FIRST,
    true,
    "res://ui/my_loading_screen.tscn"  # Custom path
)
```

The plugin comes with a demo project `demo_test_scene_manager/`, which includes:

- `main_scene.tscn` - Main interface, demonstrating basic switching functionality
- `test_scene_1.tscn` - Test scene 1
- `test_scene_2.tscn` - Test scene 2, demonstrating complete cache management functionality

Running the demo project provides a intuitive understanding of the plugin's features.
