Smart wearables are a kind of global scene that is associated to a wearable, and activated based on if the player is using that wearable. These global scenes are turned on when the player puts on a certain item of clothing, and turned off when the player takes off the item.
Smart wearables can grant players new abilities, like a jetpack that lets them fly, or add a new layer of content on top of the rest of the world, like randomly placing coins to be collected throughout the whole of genesis city.

The engine automatically updates this list every time that:
A new entity is added to the engine An entity is removed from the engine An entity in the engine adds a new component An entity in the engine removes a component 📔 Note: Only entities that are added to the engine are eligible for component groups.
...
You can query components with the method engine.getEntitiesWith(...components) to keep track of all entities in the scene that have certain components.
Systems typically iterate over the entities in these queries, performing the same operations on each. Having a predefined group of valid entities is a great way to save resources, specially for functions that run on every tick of the game loop. If on every tick your system would have to iterate over every single entity in the scene looking for the ones it needs, that would be very inefficient.
