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)
- The grid is now infinite, it follows the camera.
- The grid is now dynamic, if you zoom in and out, the grid subdivides,
expands, and fades.
- You can now enable grid planes for the XY and YZ planes. Only the flat
XZ plane is enabled by default. Each plane is independently dynamic
of the others.
- The default grid size has been increased to 200, and the maximum
has been increased to 2000. At 1000, the grid mostly looks edgeless.
- If you set the division level max and min to the same value then
the grid does not expand or subdivide, but instead stays the same size
and just follows the camera. Also, if these values are the same,
the bias value does nothing.
- If you want to have Blender-like behavior, set max to 1, min to 0,
and set the bias to a really low value. You may also wish to increase
the grid size if you have a small bias.

- Draw two boxes slightly offset from each other to give the illustion
of a thicker outline.
- Decrease the offset compared to the 3D node's AABB to give a more
accurate representation of its size.
- Make the box fully visible instead of only displaying the corners.
- Draw a x-ray version of the box that's more translucent, but visible
through walls. This helps make the box more visible while still
having a sense of depth.
- Use an orange color similar to the 2D editor.
Hide the back sides of the rotation gizmo circles and add a white
outline for better visualization of the rotation "sphere".
This is a 3.2 backport of @JFons work on the master branch; all credit
goes to him.
Changes made:
* Added dirty bit for SpatialEditorSelectedItem's last_xform
* SpatialEditorViewport checks that dirt bit too before skipping the selection
(cherry picked from commit 19825436d4)
The crosshair makes freelook navigation a bit easier, while making it
clearer that it's possible to select nodes by clicking while in
freelook mode.
The crosshair is only displayed while in freelook mode.
It uses an icon designed to be visible on any background.
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.
Implemented uniform API in Viewport class to override 2D and/or
3D camera.
Added buttons in 2D and 3D editor viewport toolbars that override
the running game camera transform with the editor viewport camera
transform. Implemented via remote debugger protocol and camera
override API.
Removed LiveEditFuncs function pointers from ScriptDebugger class.
Since the debugger got access to the SceneTree instance (if one
exists), there is no need to store the function pointers. The live
edit functions in SceneTree are used directly instead. Also removed
the static version of live edit functions in SceneTree for the same
reason. This reduced the SceneTree -> Debugger coupling too since
the function pointers don't need to be set from SceneTree anymore.
Moved script_debugger_remote.h/cpp from 'core/' to 'scene/debugger/'.
This is because the remote debugger is now using SceneTree directly
and 'core/' classes should not depend on 'scene/' classes.
The new colors should make it easier to see the manipulator gizmo.
Highlighted gizmos are now fully opaque (instead of being white),
keeping the color information while a gizmo is highlighted.
This also adds a setting hint for the manipulator gizmo opacity
editor setting.
Axis colors were taken from Blender 2.80.
This partially addresses #16154.
ptrcall assumes methods that return a Reference type do so with Ref<T>. Returning Reference* from a method exposed to the scripting API completely breaks ptrcalls to this method (it can be quite hard to debug!).
User defined gizmos will haave higher preference than editor gizmos by
default. Also fixed some inconsistencies in the gizmos menu when using
custom gizmos.
We're not formally using C++11 yet so those trigger compilation warnings
(at least with GCC 5):
./main/input_default.h:122:30: warning: non-static data member initializers only available with -std=c++11 or -std=gnu++11
CursorShape default_shape = CURSOR_ARROW;
^
Note: We may allow those eventually (especially for non-int static const),
but most of current occurrences were inconsistent with all other classes.

Moved the initialisation of origin_enabled up a bit, to be inited before
it's accessed in _init_grid. A step towards cleaner valgrind output and
removes an opportunity for a random occurance of the origin/grid
z-fighting issue.
Also removed unused variable last_grid_snap to avoid later confusion.
