* Added an extra stage before compiling shader, which is generating a binary blob.
* On Vulkan, this allows caching the SPIRV reflection information, which is expensive to parse.
* On other (future) RenderingDevices, it allows caching converted binary data, such as DXIL or MSL.
This PR makes the shader cache include the reflection information, hence editor startup times are significantly improved.
I tested this well and it appears to work, and I added a lot of consistency checks, but because it includes writing and reading binary information, rare bugs may pop up, so be aware.
There was not much of a choice for storing the reflection information, given shaders can be a lot, take a lot of space and take time to parse.
Use `System.Array.Empty<T>` to get an empty array instead of allocating
a new one every time. Since arrays are immutable there is no need to
allocate them every time.

* Clean-up of node_3d_editor_plugin.{h,cpp}: removed unused code, fixed some bugs.
* Moved node_3d_editor_gizmos.{h,cpp} to editor/plugins.
* Added support for multiple gizmos per node. This means custom gizmos will no longer override the built-in ones and that multiple gizmos can be used in more complex nodes.
* Added support for handle IDs. When adding handles to a gizmo, an ID can be specified for each one, making it easier to work with gizmos that have a variable number of handles.
* Added support for subgizmos, selectable elements that can be transformed without needing a node of their own. By overriding _subgizmo_intersect_frustum() and/or _subgizmo_intersect_ray() gizmos can define which subgizmos should be selected on a region or click selection. Subgizmo transformations are applied using get/set/commit virtual methods, similar to how handles work.
The `Math_INF` and `Math_NAN` defines were just aliases for those
constants, so we might as well use them directly.
Some portions of the code were already using `INFINITY` directly.
This PR improves and streamlines the workflow for VisualScriptFunctionNodes Call Set Get
Uniform design.
Drag in set-get from tree is now working.
Removes redundant method_select popup.
- Move the "sync" property for RPCs to RPCConfig.
- Unify GDScript annotations into a single one:
- `@rpc(master)` # default
- `@rpc(puppet)`
- `@rpc(any)` # former `@remote`
- Implement three additional `@rpc` options:
- The second parameter is the "sync" option (which also calls the
function locally when RPCing). One of "sync", "nosync".
- The third parameter is the transfer mode (reliable, unreliable,
ordered).
- The third parameter is the channel (unused for now).
Check for each body individually if it collides with the other one or
ignores it.
When a body is being ignored, the other body's mass is considered
infinite when applying impulses to avoid extra overlapping.
* Added a new macro SNAME() that constructs and caches a local stringname.
* Subsequent usages use the cached version.
* Since these use a global static variable, a second refcounter of static usages need to be kept for cleanup time.
* Replaced all theme usages by this new macro.
* Replace all signal emission usages by this new macro.
* Replace all call_deferred usages by this new macro.
This is part of ongoing work to optimize GUI and the editor.
From empirical testing, this seems to provide the best compression
compared to other compression algorithms when used in the
Multiplayer Bomber demo.
Other algorithms may provide better compression ratios for more
complex games, but some compression is probably better than
no compression.
Zstandard was also not very efficient in my testing, so I added
a note in the documentation.
While there are still various bugs to solve and features to implement, the C#
support as of Godot 3.4 is fairly mature and already used by a number of users
in production. Now that we default to dotnet CLI as build tool, it also seems
to be more reliable than MSBuild.
The documentation can (and does for the most part) point out some caveats that
users should be aware of, but this info dialog has outlived its intended
purpose.
* This PR adds the ability to disable classes when building.
* For now it's only possible to do this via command like:
`scons disable_classes=RayCast2D,Area3D`
* Eventually, a proper UI will be implemented to create a build config file to do this at large scale, as well as detect what is used in the project.
* The harcoded 8 slots are no more and impose limits in the new extension system.
* New system is limitless, although it will impose small performance hit with a mutex.
* Use a token to request the instance binding.
**Warning**: Mono will most likely break as a result of this, will need to be modified to use the new system.
Clean: remove duplicate and interior vertices (uses Bullet algorithm)
Simplify: modify the geometry for further simplification (uses VHACD
algorithm)
In the editor, single convex hull now uses the clean option.
Added a new editor entry to create a simplified convex hull, can be
useful for creating convex hull from highly tessellated triangle meshes.
Previously, only StandardMaterial3D could be defined as an alternative
to ShaderMaterial.
This also reorders the CanvasItemMaterial property hints to follow
alphabetical order (which is enforced by the inspector).
* Functions to convert to/from degrees are all gone. Conversion is done by the editor.
* Use PROPERTY_HINT_ANGLE instead of PROPERTY_HINT_RANGE to edit radian angles in degrees.
* Added possibility to add suffixes to range properties, use "min,max[,step][,suffix:<something>]" example "0,100,1,suffix:m"
* In general, can add suffixes for EditorSpinSlider
Not covered by this PR, will have to be addressed by future ones:
* Ability to switch radians/degrees in the inspector for angle properties (if actually wanted).
* Animations previously made will most likely break, need to add a way to make old ones compatible.
* Only added a "px" suffix to 2D position and a "m" one to 3D position, someone needs to go through the rest of the engine and add all remaining suffixes.
* Likely also need to track down usage of EditorSpinSlider outside properties to add suffixes to it too.
* Ability to allocate empty objects in RID_Owner, so RID_PtrOwner is not needed in most cases.
* Improves cache usage, as objects are now allocated together
* Should improve performance in 2D rendering
