Now the process uses a Map to lookup node pointers instead of iterating
over all modified node paths in a list and comparing them for each
property to check.
The process also avoids checking properties with empty node paths and
does an early exit on deleted nodes to avoid checking the node and its
descendants.
Also made a minor change in NodePath::rel_path_to() to avoid resizing a
Vector many times for long paths (with copy-on-write each time). Now
it's down to 2 resize calls in any case.
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 🎆
