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 🎆
The API is implemented in javascript, and generates C functions that can
be called from godot.
This allows much cleaner code replacing all `EM_ASM` calls in our C++
code with plain C function calls.
This also gets rid of few hacks and comes with few optimizations (e.g.
custom cursor shapes should be much faster now).
The engine now expects to emscripten FS to be setup and sync-ed before
main is called. This is exposed via `Module["initFS"]` which also allows
to setup multiple persistence paths (internal use only for now).
Additionally, FS syncing is done **once** for every loop if at least one
file in a persistent path was open for writing and closed, and if the FS
is not syncing already.
This should potentially fix issues reported by users where "autosave"
would not work on the web (never calling `syncfs` because of too many
writes).
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.
It changed name as part of the DisplayServer and input refactoring
in #37317, with the rationale that input no longer goes through the
main loop, so the previous Input singleton now only does filtering.
But the gains in consistency are quite limited in the renaming, and
it breaks compatibility for all scripts and tutorials that access
the Input singleton via the scripting language. A temporary option
was suggested to keep the scripting singleton named `Input` even if
its type is `InputFilter`, but that adds inconsistency and breaks C#.
Fixesgodotengine/godot-proposals#639.
Fixes#37319.
Fixes#37690.
For us, it practically only changes the fact that `A<A<int>>` is now
used instead of the C++03 compatible `A<A<int> >`.
Note: clang-format 10+ changed the `Standard` arguments to fully
specified `c++11`, `c++14`, etc. versions, but we can't use `c++17`
now if we want to preserve compatibility with clang-format 8 and 9.
`Cpp11` is still supported as deprecated alias for `Latest`.
It was initially implemented in #5871 for Godot 3.0, but never really
completed or thoroughly tested for most platforms. It then stayed in
limbo and nobody seems really keen to finish it, so it's better to
remove it in 4.0, and re-add eventually (possibly with a different API)
if there's demand and an implementation confirmed working on all
platforms.
Closes#8770.
It was removed as noted in the changelog:
https://github.com/emscripten-core/emscripten/blob/1.39.5/ChangeLog.md#v1395-12202019
> Removed `timestamp` field from mouse, wheel, devicemotion and
> deviceorientation events. The presence of a `timestamp` on these
> events was slightly arbitrary, and populating this field caused
> a small profileable overhead that all users might not care about.
> It is easy to get a timestamp of an event by calling
> `emscripten_get_now()` or `emscripten_performance_now()` inside
> the event handler function of any event.
Fixes#34648.
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.
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.
Being async, the first time a value is pasted GUI elements will still
return the previous one.
This at least until 'clipboardchange' window event gets implemented by
user agents.
-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
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.
This makes the interfaces available, without implementation, in other
platforms and the editor, which facilitates documenting platform-exclusive
classes.
Platform-exclusive APIs must be set up in platform/<platform>/api/api.cpp.
Provide noop method-implementations where necessary.
Also setup and document the HTML5 platform's JavaScript singleton.
