IAssignmentPolicy

public interface IAssignmentPolicy

Decides which worker simulates which container. The orchestrator runs the policy every pass and applies the changes it returns through the control plane; a policy is a pure function of its input so it can be tested without a mesh. Nebula ships BakedAssignmentPolicy (deal by count, for authored and baked worlds) and CostBalancedAssignmentPolicy (deal by load, for worlds whose shape is decided at runtime); a game may install its own through NebulaOrchestrator.Policy.
