How it works...
The
AppState
object works with the application in a way that is similar to how
Con-
trol
works with
spatial
. They give extended functionalities in a modular way. Once it
has been attached to
stateManager
, its
update
method will be called every cycle.
This gives us access to the application's thread as well. It also has the
stateAttached
and
stateDetached
methods, which can be used to turn functionality on and off easily.
