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.
On iOS devices without a physical home button iOS
shows a home indicator instead. This is often in the
way of the UI or the game.
Added a project setting to disable hidden home indicator.
The default value is to hide the home indicator
We no longer compile for armv7 and x86 in the official export templates,
as those architectures are no longer relevant for iOS.
If users really want to support armv7 (used on devices from before
September 2013, e.g. iPhone 5), they can still build their own templates
and toggle the option.
We might remove the option altogether in a later release to avoid the
confusion for users that might tick the checkbox without having compiled
their own templates.
Fixes#34135.
It's the recommended way to set those, and is more portable
(automatically prepends -D for GCC/Clang and /D for MSVC).
We still use CPPFLAGS for some pre-processor flags which are not
defines.
This PR introduces support for ARKit to the iOS version of Godot.
ARKit is Apples Augmented Reality platform.
This PR brings in support for ARKit 1.0 and implements a few ARKit 2.0 features.
It requires iOS 11 to run but should not prevent Godot from running on older versions as long as ARKit remains unused.
This is a new singleton where camera sources such as webcams or cameras on a mobile phone can register themselves with the Server.
Other parts of Godot can interact with this to obtain images from the camera as textures.
This work includes additions to the Visual Server to use this functionality to present the camera image in the background. This is specifically targetted at AR applications.
It's not necessary, but the vast majority of calls of error macros
do have an ending semicolon, so it's best to be consistent.
Most WARN_DEPRECATED calls did *not* have a semicolon, but there's
no reason for them to be treated differently.
Those were disable to keep size small, and on Android avoid the dependency on the STL,
but for tools build (editor) this is not really a concern.
Note: as of today it's not possible to build tools=yes for those platforms, but this
change is one of the necessary steps to enable it.
Fixes#25262.
Reasoning: ID is not an acronym, it is simply short for identification, so it logically should not be capitalized. But even if it was an acronym, other acronyms in Godot are not capitalized, like p_rid, p_ip, and p_json.
Include paths are processed from left to right, so we use Prepend to
ensure that paths to bundled thirdparty files will have precedence over
system paths (e.g. `/usr/include` should have lowest priority).
Many contributors (me included) did not fully understand what CCFLAGS,
CXXFLAGS and CPPFLAGS refer to exactly, and were thus not using them
in the way they are intended to be.
As per the SCons manual: https://www.scons.org/doc/HTML/scons-user/apa.html
- CCFLAGS: General options that are passed to the C and C++ compilers.
- CFLAGS: General options that are passed to the C compiler (C only;
not C++).
- CXXFLAGS: General options that are passed to the C++ compiler. By
default, this includes the value of $CCFLAGS, so that setting
$CCFLAGS affects both C and C++ compilation.
- CPPFLAGS: User-specified C preprocessor options. These will be
included in any command that uses the C preprocessor, including not
just compilation of C and C++ source files [...], but also [...]
Fortran [...] and [...] assembly language source file[s].
TL;DR: Compiler options go to CCFLAGS, unless they must be restricted
to either C (CFLAGS) or C++ (CXXFLAGS). Preprocessor defines go to
CPPFLAGS.
GLES2 is not designed to be a drop-in replacement for the GLES3 backend,
so the fallback mode has to be used knowingly. It *can* make sense for
simple projects which make sure to handle the differences between both
rendering backends, but most users should stick to one supported backend.
By making it opt-in, we can now use this parameter to define whether to
export ETC textures to Android and iOS when using GLES3 + Fallback.
When using GLES3 without Fallback on Android, set the proper min GLES
version in the AndroidManifest.
Also made the option boolean and renamed it for clarity and to avoid
conflict with the previous String option (which would always evaluate as
"true" otherwise).
Fixes#26569.
For HTML5, we need to support S3TC if running on desktop,
and ETC or ETC2 for mobile, so make this explicit.
Add logic to check for ETC2 support on GLES3,
and remove incorrect ETC feature for GLES3 on Android.
Fix ETC check invalidating templates on HTML5.
Fixes#26476.
Also drop some unused files.
Renamed:
- `platform/iphone/sem_iphone.h` -> `semaphore_iphone.h`
(same for `osx`)
- `platform/uwp/gl_context_egl.h` -> `context_egl_uwp.h`
- in `platform/windows`: `context_gl_win.h`, `crash_handler_win.h`,
`godot_win.cpp`, `joypad.h` and `key_mapping_win.h` all renamed to
use `windows`. Some classes renamed accordingly too.
- `EditorExportAndroid` and `EditorExportUWP` renamed to
`EditorExportPlatformAndroid` and `EditorExportPlatformUWP`
- `power_android` and `power_osx` renamed to `PowerAndroid` and
`PowerOSX`
- `OSUWP` renamed to `OS_UWP`
Dropped:
- `platform/windows/ctxgl_procaddr.h`
Godot supports many different compilers and for production releases we
have to support 3 currently: GCC8, Clang6, and MSVC2017. These compilers
all do slightly different things with -ffast-math and it is causing
issues now. See #24841, #24540, #10758, #10070. And probably other
complaints about physics differences between release and release_debug
builds.
I've done some performance comparisons on Linux x86_64. All tests are
ran 20 times.

I have also looked at FPS numbers for tps-demo, 3d platformer, 2d
platformer, and sponza and could not find any measurable difference.
I believe that given the issues and oft-reported (physics) glitches on
release builds I believe that the couple of percent of tight-loop
floating point performance regression is well worth it.
This fixes#24540 and fixes#24841
By introducing an intermediate proxy class for the array subscript
operator for String and CharString we can control better when CowData
will actually CoW.
This should improve performance of String usage for most cases.
Contrarily to what #23434 assumed, this is not a memory leak,
the VisualServerRaster instance is passed as a parameter to
VisualServerWrapMT's constructor.
Fixes#23437.
Also turn off -Wsign-compare warnings in the future, we do not consider them important.

This allows more consistency in the manner we include core headers,
where previously there would be a mix of absolute, relative and
include path-dependent includes.
Previously the compiler would use system headers located at
/System/Library/Frameworks, which could result in compilation failures
due to the headers not always being up-to-date in regards to the
latest installed macOS SDK headers that come with Xcode.
Fix the issue by passing the SDK path via the -isysroot option to the
compiler and linker invocations.
If no custom SDK path is given, the build system queries the SDK path
via xcrun --show-sdk-path, which returns something similar to
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/
/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/
Querying via xcrun is now also done for iphone (and simulator)
platforms as well.
Here is an example of a compilation failure message due to outdated
headers:
platform/osx/os_osx.mm:1421:41: error: use of undeclared identifier 'NSAppKitVersionNumber10_12'; did you mean 'NSAppKitVersionNumber'?
if (floor(NSAppKitVersionNumber) >= NSAppKitVersionNumber10_12) {
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
NSAppKitVersionNumber
/System/Library/Frameworks/AppKit.framework/Headers/NSApplication.h:26:28: note: 'NSAppKitVersionNumber' declared here
This adds a static is_viable() method to all rasterizers which has to be
called before initializing the rasterizer. This allows us to check what
rasterizer to use in OS::initialize together with the GL context
initialization.
This commit also adds a new project setting
"rendering/quality/driver/driver_fallback" which allows the creator of a
project to specify whether or not fallback to GLES2 is allowed. This
setting is ignored for the editor so the editor will always open even if
the project itself cannot run. This will hopefully reduce confusion for
users downloading projects from the internet.
We also no longer crash when GLES3 is not functioning on a platform.
This fixes#15324
This commit makes operator[] on Vector const and adds a write proxy to it. From
now on writes to Vectors need to happen through the .write proxy. So for
instance:
Vector<int> vec;
vec.push_back(10);
std::cout << vec[0] << std::endl;
vec.write[0] = 20;
Failing to use the .write proxy will cause a compilation error.
In addition COWable datatypes can now embed a CowData pointer to their data.
This means that String, CharString, and VMap no longer use or derive from
Vector.
_ALWAYS_INLINE_ and _FORCE_INLINE_ are now equivalent for debug and non-debug
builds. This is a lot faster for Vector in the editor and while running tests.
The reason why this difference used to exist is because force-inlined methods
used to give a bad debugging experience. After extensive testing with modern
compilers this is no longer the case.
-Project/Editor settings now show tooltips properly
-Settings thar require restart now will show a restart warning
-Video driver is now visible all the time, can be changed easily
-Added function to request current video driver
PR #18675 (commit 96301e9) revealed a problem with how iOS lifecycle
callbacks were handled by Godot. Before that PR it was possible to get
NOTIFICATION_WM_FOCUS_IN callback without getting the corresponding
NOTIFICATION_WM_FOCUS_OUT. That commit added a flag to ensure they are
always coupled, but now there is an issue when, for example, you open a
notification panel on iOS without moving the app to background.
It resulted in view.stopAnimation being called without the
corresponding startAnimation when the app moves to foreground again, so
it looked like the game hanged.
I changed focus out notification to be sent in applicationWillResignActive,
because it makes more sense than to do it in applicationDidEnterBackground,
because it is always called in pair with applicationDidBecomeActive, where
focus in is sent. applicationDidEnterBackground may not come under
circumstances that are now described as a comment in code.
When a phone call or an alarm triggers on iOS, the application receives
an "audio interruption" and it's up to the application to resume
playback when the interruption ends. I added handling for audio
interruptions same as if the game is focused out and then back in.
Now generating mouse events from touch is optional (on by default) and it's performed by `InputDefault` instead of having each OS abstraction doing it. (*)
The translation algorithm waits for a touch index to be pressed and tracks it translating its events to mouse events until it is raised, while ignoring other pointers.
Furthermore, to avoid an stuck "touch mouse", since not all platforms may report touches raised when the window is unfocused, it checks if touches are still down by the time it's focused again and if so it resets the state of the emulated mouse.
*: In the case of Windows, since it already provides touch-to-mouse translation by itself, "echo" mouse events are filtered out to have it working like the rest.
On X11 a little hack has been needed to avoid a case of a spurious mouse motion event that is generated during touch interaction.
Plus: Improve/fix tracking of current mouse position.
** Summary of changes to settings: **
- `display/window/handheld/emulate_touchscreen` becomes `input/pointing_devices/emulate_touch_from_mouse`
- New setting: `input/pointing_devices/emulate_mouse_from_touch`
Starting from April 2018 Apple no longer accepts apps that do not
support iPhone X. For games this mainly means respecting the safe area,
unobstructed by notch and virtual home button. UI controls must be
placed within the safe area so that users can interact with them.
This commit:
- Adds OS::get_window_safe_area method that returns unobscured area of
the window, where interactive controls should be rendered.
- Reorganizes how launch screens are exported - the previous way was
incorrect and modern iPhones did not pick up the correct screens and
because of that used a non-native resolution to render the game.
- Adds launch screen options for iPhone X.
- Makes launch screens optional in the export template. If not
specified, a white screen will be used.
- Adds App Store icon (1024x1024) export option as it now has to be
bundled with the app instead of being provided in iTunes Connect.
- Fixes crash when launching games in iOS Simulator. It happened because
controllerWasConnected callback came before the engine was
initialized. Now in such case the controllers will be queued up and
registered after initialization is done.
- Fixes issue with the virtual keyboard where for some reason
autocorrection panel would intersect with the keyboard itself and not
allow you to use the top row of the keyboard. This is fixed by
disabling autocorrection altogether.
Closes#17358. Fixes#17428. Fixes#17331.
Using `misc/scripts/fix_headers.py` on all Godot files.
Some missing header guards were added, and the header inclusion order
was fixed in the Bullet module.
- EditorExportPlugin's _export_begin accepts all the arguments related
to the current export (is_debug, path, flags).
- EditorExportPlugin API is extended with methods allowing to configure
iOS export: add_ios_framework, add_ios_plist_content,
add_ios_linker_flags, add_ios_bundle_file.
- iOS export template now contains Godot as a static library so that
it can be linked with third-party Frameworks and GDNative static
libraries.
- Adds method to DirAccess for recursive copying of a directory.
- Fixes iOS export to work with Xcode 9 (released recently).
There are still some left in the Android Java code, even stuff to swap between
GLES1 and GLES2 support from early Godot days... would be good to see some cleanup
there too one day.
The "graphics/api" option for Android exports is removed, as only GLES 3.0 is supported.
It can be readded when GLES 2.0 support comes back. Fixes#13004.
It had been missed in d09160a8b6 and broke compilation
for those platforms.
Took the opportunity to run clang-format on the code base to fix some corner cases
that went through our static tests/were overlooked recently.
These changes allow to open the exported project in XCode and Run it
immediately to begin debugging. Before these changes you'd have to
sign GDNative libs and change Build Configuration manually.
Now that #12009 is merged, we should let the system find the binary on
the users $PATH and don't assume we know where to look for them in
different distributions.
