Overall brightness is similar to the previous settings, but lighting
now fades off more naturally and reflections feature indirect lighting.
Performance is identical.
- Enable Use Two Bounces by default.
- Decrease Propagation to 0.5 to compensate for the second bounce.
This makes it easier to spot syntax errors when editing the
class reference. The schema is referenced locally so validation
can still work offline.
Each class XML's schema conformance is also checked on GitHub Actions.
This reduces visible banding in indirect lighting and reflections.
Sharp reflections now match more closely the original scene.
The downside of this change is that clipping may appear in reflections
in extremely bright scenes, but this should not be a concern in most
scenes.
For the time being we don't support writing a description for those, preferring
having all details in the method's description.
Using self-closing tags saves half the lines, and prevents contributors from
thinking that they should write the argument or return documentation there.
* GIProbe is now VoxelGI
* BakedLightmap is now LightmapGI
As godot adds more ways to provide GI (as an example, SDFGI in 4.0), the different techniques (which have different pros/cons) need to be properly named to avoid confusion.
