Components removed from ComponentMapper before remove() is invoked about artemis-framework HOT 3 OPEN

[deleted comment]

I'm experiencing a similar issue, where I'm creating a new entity in the 
overridden removed() method. The entity that gets created has the same id as 
the one that is passed into removed.

The problem happens when the componentManager cleans up all the deleted 
entities after notifying the systems, and cleans up the newly created 
components for the new entity created in removed().

I agree with this. 
In my current project, I have a Physics component which creates a box2d body in 
the overridden inserted(Entity e) method.

When an entity is removed from the world via world.deleteEntity(e), in 
removed(Entity e) I clean up and remove the box2d body (since the physics 
component returns OK).

However, if I removed the physics component via 
e.removeComponent(Physics.class), then call e.changedInWorld() the removed 
method returns null when I get the Physics component.

This is a bit of a problem for me, since it works unpredictably depending on 
how you remove the component or entity.
