-Physics servers test body motion use a class to hold parameters instead
of multiple arguments to make it more readable and flexible since there
are many options
-Improved documentation for test body motion and kinematic collision
-Removed read-only properties for body motion results (not handled in
scripts, so they should be get_ methods only instead)
Shape metadata was only used to get tile information when colliding with
tilemaps. It's not needed anymore since there's an API in tilemap using
body ids instead.
Changes:
-Added support for custom inertia and center of mass in 3D
-Added support for custom center of mass in 2D
-Calculated center of mass from shapes in 2D (same as in 3D)
-Fixed mass properties calculation with disabled shapes in 2D/3D
-Removed first_integration which is not used in 2D and doesn't seem to
make a lot of sense (prevents omit_force_integration to work during the
first frame)
-Support for custom inertia on different axes for RigidBody3D
Use a C++ callback instead of Callable for synchronizing physics nodes' state with physics servers.
Remove usage of PhysicsDirectBodyState in physics nodes when not
necessary.
Store PhysicsDirectBodyState for bodies individually instead of a
singleton to avoid issues when accessing direct body state for multiple
bodies.
PhysicsDirectBodyState is initialized only when needed, so it doesn't
have to be created when using the physics server directly.
Move PhysicsDirectBodyState2D and PhysicsDirectBodyState3D to separate
cpp files.
Make separation ray shapes work properly in move_and_slide, wihtout the
specific code in CharacterBody like before.
Now most of the logic is handled inside the physics server. The only
thing that's needed is to use ray shapes only for recovery and ignore
them when performing the motion itself (unless we're snapping or slips
on slope is on).
Infinite inertia:
Not needed anymore, since it's now possible to set one-directional
collision layers in order for characters to ignore rigid bodies, while
rigid bodies still collide with characters.
Ray shapes:
They were introduced as a work around to allow constant speed on slopes,
which is now possible with the new property in CharacterBody instead.
Fixing by applying the movement in two steps, first the platform
movement, and then the body movement. Plus, add the platform movement
when we are on_wall.
Safe margin property on CharacterBody only, used as argument in
move_and_collide.
Removed kinematic_safe_margin in 3D physics server, not really useful
and now harmonized with 2D.
-Rendering server now uses a split RID allocate/initialize internally, this allows generating RIDs immediately but initialization to happen later on the proper thread (as rendering APIs generally requiere to call on the right thread).
-RenderingServerWrapMT is no more, multithreading is done in RenderingServerDefault.
-Some functions like texture or mesh creation, when renderer supports it, can register and return immediately (so no waiting for server API to flush, and saving staging and command buffer memory).
-3D physics server changed to be made multithread friendly.
-Added PhysicsServer3DWrapMT to use 3D physics server from multiple threads.
-Disablet Bullet (too much effort to make multithread friendly, this needs to be fixed eventually).
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 🎆
Which means that reduz' beloved style which we all became used to
will now be changed automatically to remove the first empty line.
This makes us lean closer to 1TBS (the one true brace style) instead
of hybridating it with some Allman-inspired spacing.
There's still the case of braces around single-statement blocks that
needs to be addressed (but clang-format can't help with that, but
clang-tidy may if we agree about it).
Part of #33027.
