I’ll get back to you on `add` and `remove`, but just let me confirm with you: You actually want to allow multiple, say, `Health` components to be added to your `Character`? Most of the complication in my suggested code comes from trying to prevent that! Things would be simpler if this is not your requirement. I just need to double check that with you, since I can not think of a reason that would be a good thing. I expressly sketched out the implementation so that you can keep `Health` and such immutable, so that you can update the character’s state simply by `add`ing (and therefore replacing) the existing `Health` value.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">milos</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""><div class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On 8 Apr 2016, at 15:12, Adriano Ferreira <<a href="mailto:adriano.ferreira@me.com" class="">adriano.ferreira@me.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class=""><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html charset=utf-8" class=""><div style="word-wrap: break-word;
