class_name Sampler


## Abstract base class for sampling a certain reference among multiple.


## [Array] of [Node]s that can be [func sample]d by this [Sampler].
@export var possibilities: Array[Node] = []


## Get a reference.
func sample() -> Node:
	Log.e(self, "Not implemented.")
	return null

## Set the [field enabled] property to true on a [method sample]d node, and to false on all others. 
func enable() -> void:
	var selected = sample()
	for possibility in get_all_refs():
		possibility.enabled = (selected == possibility)


## Get all possible nodes referenced by [field possibilities].
##
## Useful as it may be overridden by some other [Sampler]s, such as [SamplerPriority].
func get_all_refs() -> Array[Node]:
	return possibilities
