As many open source projects have started doing it, we're removing the
current year from the copyright notice, so that we don't need to bump
it every year.
It seems like only the first year of publication is technically
relevant for copyright notices, and even that seems to be something
that many companies stopped listing altogether (in a version controlled
codebase, the commits are a much better source of date of publication
than a hardcoded copyright statement).
We also now list Godot Engine contributors first as we're collectively
the current maintainers of the project, and we clarify that the
"exclusive" copyright of the co-founders covers the timespan before
opensourcing (their further contributions are included as part of Godot
Engine contributors).
Also fixed "cf." Frenchism - it's meant as "refer to / see".
Backported from #70885.
Sets `AlignOperands` to `DontAlign`.
`clang-format` developers seem to mostly care about space-based indentation and
every other version of clang-format breaks the bad mismatch of tabs and spaces
that it seems to use for operand alignment. So it's better without, so that it
respects our two-tabs `ContinuationIndentWidth`.
Change the existing DEV_ASSERT function to be switched on and off by the DEV_ENABLED define. DEV_ASSERT breaks into the debugger as soon as hit.
Add error macros DEV_CHECK and DEV_CHECK_ONCE to add an alternative check that ERR_PRINT when a condition fails, again only enabled in DEV_ENABLED builds.
Allows users to override default API usage, in order to get best performance on different platforms.
Also changes the default legacy flags to use STREAM rather than DYNAMIC.
The rendering/quality/2d section of project settings is becoming considerably expanded in 3.2.4, and arguably was not the correct place for settings that were not really to do with quality.
3.2.4 is the last sensible opportunity we will have to move these settings, as the only existing one likely to break compatibility in a small way is `pixel_snap`, and given that the whole snapping area is being overhauled we can draw attention to the fact it has changed in the release notes.
Class reference is also updated and slightly improved.
`pixel_snap` is renamed to `gpu_pixel_snap` in the project settings and code to help differentiate from CPU side transform snapping.
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)
These were only put in for the betas, in order to test hypotheses for stalling on Macs. It seems that most of the problems in the Mac editor have been solved by fixing the excessive redraw_requests.
As a result no one has reported any results from these options, but in future we will be able to refer users to try the beta versions, so there is no need to include them in the stable release. Indeed they are only likely to cause confusion.
While adding more debug checks to legacy renderer, I closed 2 types of vulnerabilities:
* TYPE_PRIMITIVE would previously read from uninitialized data if only specifying a single color
* Other legacy draw operations would fail in debug AFTER accessing out of bounds memory rather than before
Many calls to glBufferSubData are wrapped in a safe version which checks for out of bounds and exits the draw function if this is detected.
As a result of the GLES specifications being vague about best practice for how buffers should be used dynamically, different GPUs / platforms appear to have different preferences.
Mac in particular seems to have a number of problems in this area, and none of the rendering team uses Macs. So far we have relied on guesswork to choose the best usage, but in an attempt to pin this down, this PR begins to introduce manual selection of options for users to test their configurations.
Due to my less than eagle-like view over these functions I had assumed they were passing in a single buffer input for the changes to make buffer uploading more efficient. They aren't, which is less than ideal.
So these particular changes should be reverted. When I have some more time I'll see whether the API for these calls can be changed, because as is the multiple glSubBufferData calls could be causing stalls on some hardware.
This is part of effort to make more efficient use of the API for devices with poor drivers. This eliminates multiple calls to glBufferSubData per update.
Batching is mostly separated into a common template which can be used with multiple backends (GLES2 and GLES3 here). Only necessary specifics are in the backend files.
Batching is extended to cover more primitives.
