While "returns an empty Variant" technically valid (it's constructed
as `Variant()` in C++), "returns null" is more intuitive to users.
(cherry picked from commit 109f968171)
This is already done in `Node.add_child()` documentation, but
this copies the note in `Node.owner` for good measure.
(cherry picked from commit be1acf3b92)
For the time being we don't support writing a description for those, preferring
having all details in the method's description.
Using self-closing tags saves half the lines, and prevents contributors from
thinking that they should write the argument or return documentation there.
(cherry picked from commit 7adf4cc9b5)
See #43689.
Also 'fixed' some spelling for behavior in publicly visible strings.
(Sorry en_GB, en_CA, en_AU, and more... Silicon Valley won the tech spelling
war.)
(cherry picked from commit a655de89e3)
The name of the property responsible for physics fps is fixed:
this is `Engine.iterations_per_second`, not `Engine.target_fps`.
(cherry picked from commit 6e5cd36b12)
We already removed it from the online docs with #35132.
Currently it can only be "Built-In Types" (Variant types) or "Core"
(everything else), which is of limited use.
We might also want to consider dropping it from `ClassDB` altogether
in Godot 4.0.
- Add some missing descriptions.
- Add links to tutorials for ARVR and AnimationTree.
- Style fixes.
- Engine changes:
* Make `AnimationNodeTransition.input_<number>` properties internal
so that they don't appear in the docs. They still appear in the
inspector based on the actual number of inputs requested.
* Drop unimplemented `CPUParticles.flatness`. It's only used for 3D
particles in `ParticlesMaterial`, and thus only relevant for
`CPUParticles3D`.
This method can be used to generate custom node warnings by script.
Node::_get_configuration_warning was already exposed to generate custom warnings, but it wasn't fully usable without being able to notify the scene tree when the warning needs to appear or change.
Fixes#2771. It is confusing to say get_node will "raise an error" if
the node does not exist, as this phrase is used elsewhere in the godot
docs (e.g. at several points in the GDScript overview) to indicate
something that will completely stop execution. Saying it logs an error
is more accurate.
- Document a few more properties and methods
- Add more information to many classes
- Fix lots of typos and gramar mistakes
- Use [code] tags for parameters consistently
- Use [b] and [i] tags consistently
- Put "Warning:" and "Note:" on their own line to be more visible,
and make them always bold
- Tweak formatting in code examples to be more readable
- Use double quotes consistently
- Add more links to third-party technologies
All 100% completed: MainLoop, Node, Object, Path, Performance,
Reference, Resource, SceneState, SceneTree, UndoRedo.
Also fixed some en_GB occurrences as the reference spelling is en_US.
