When node tree `A` is not in the tree, `remove_child(B)` will not
automatically clean up the owners of `B` and `B`'s child nodes.
This is convenient for implementing operations like `replace_by()`,
but may have hidden dangers when manipulating the rest of the tree
`A`.
This commit makes it safe to manipulate the rest of `A` after freeing
`B`.
* Node processing works on the concept of process groups.
* A node group can be inherited, run on main thread, or a sub-thread.
* Groups can be ordered.
* Process priority is now present for physics.
This is the first steps towards implementing https://github.com/godotengine/godot-proposals/issues/6424.
No threading or thread guards exist yet in most of the scene code other than Node. That will have to be added later.
* Adding and removing child nodes is now constant time, speed up should be huge.
* Searching for node paths as in ("path/to/node") should be far faster too.
This changes the children management and makes it a hashmap, optimizing most StringName based operations.
Most operations should be severe speed up without breaking compatibility.
This should fix many issues regarding to node access performance, and may also speed up editor start/end, but benchmarks are needed. So if you want to test, please make some benchmarks!
Further performance improvements will be done in the future by removing NOTIFICATION_MOVED_IN_PARENT and replacing by something less laborious.
* This notification makes node children management very inefficient.
* Replaced by a NOTIFICATION_CHILDREN_CHANGED (and children_changed signal).
* Changed Canvas code (and similar) to use the above signal, to perform more efficiently.
This PR breaks compatibility (although this notification was very rarely used, even within the engine), but provides an alternate way to do the same.
It is required for the changes in #75627 to be entirely effective.
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".
With the introduction of Scene Unique Nodes, `is_unique_in_owner`, "Unique Name in Scene" and other descriptions related to the feature, the second parameter of add_child() and add_simbling() could be misunderstood to be related, at first glance.
- RPC configurations are now dictionaries.
- Script.get_rpc_methods renamed to Script.get_rpc_config.
- Node.rpc[_id] and Callable.rpc now return an Error.
- Refactor MultiplayerAPI to allow extension.
- New MultiplayerAPI.rpc method with Array argument (for scripts).
- Move the default MultiplayerAPI implementation to a module.
