Happy new year to the wonderful Godot community!
2020 has been a tough year for most of us personally, but a good year for
Godot development nonetheless with a huge amount of work done towards Godot
4.0 and great improvements backported to the long-lived 3.2 branch.
We've had close to 400 contributors to engine code this year, authoring near
7,000 commit! (And that's only for the `master` branch and for the engine code,
there's a lot more when counting docs, demos and other first-party repos.)
Here's to a great year 2021 for all Godot users 🎆
(cherry picked from commit b5334d14f7)
Fixes#41006 (regression from #39164).
The original alignment fix was limited to PROCESS_DRAW mode, which
caused some discrepancies with PROCESS_POINTER mode.
Now only PROCESS_CACHE is excluded with a condition a few lines above.
(cherry picked from commit b783fa1416)
RichTextEffect can now have a bbcode string starting like one of the built-in.
It was impossible before as the built-in would take precedence over the custom effect that has the same bbcode start.
Example : [fade] would take precedence over [fade_in]
(cherry picked from commit b4e3042cba)
Needed for the next commit. That's the only place in all the Godot code base
where that's attempted and it's not needed because Objects are not meant to
be copied that way.
Correct backtrack assignment to prevent excessive tabulation. Worth
noting that tabulation is treated differently in RichTextLabel because
of custom user-asignable tab variable which creates problems with
dynamic fonts specifically.
(cherry picked from commit 2000e110a9)
A picture is easier to describe this issue than words. Basically, rich
text effects allowed for character visibility changes. While doing so
would work properly, the rich text label would render the next `word` in
an offset accounting for the hidden characters (leaving a huge space.)
This patch fixes this issue by keeping track of the amount of
`backtrack` necessary per line.
(cherry picked from commit b3fd4884d7)
Happy new year to the wonderful Godot community!
We're starting a new decade with a well-established, non-profit, free
and open source game engine, and tons of further improvements in the
pipeline from hundreds of contributors.
Godot will keep getting better, and we're looking forward to all the
games that the community will keep developing and releasing with it.
Added a new ItemFX type to RichTextLabel which supports dynamic text
effects.
RichTextEffect Resource Type was added which can be extended for more
real time text effects.
It seems to stay compatible with formatting done by clang-format 6.0 and 7.0,
so contributors can keep using those versions for now (they will not undo those
changes).
