* Deprecates GDNative in favor of a simpler, lower level interface.
* New extension system allows registering core engine classes.
* Simple header interface in gdnative_interace.h
The CylinderMesh generation code handles this special case and
avoids generating the top and bottom faces if their radius is equal
to 0. This improves performance by reducing the number of vertices
to draw.
If both values are set to 0, nothing will be visible but the mesh
generation will still succeed.
This also improves the CylinderMesh class documentation.
* Tweens were changed from Node to RefCounted. New API is inspired by DOTween.
* Tweens are created and managed by SceneTree, similar to SceneTreeTimer, which makes them ultra cheap to use a lot.
* Animating with Tweens is done by creating sequences of Tweeners. You create them from code and they autostart by default (fire-and-forget).
* There are 4 Tweeners that cover the former Tween functionality: PropertyTweener, IntervalTweener, CallbackTweener and MethodTweener.
* The methods were simplified a lot. Long argument lists are replaced with chained calls on Tweens and Tweeners.
* Tweeners by default execute in sequence, so it's easy to create complex chained animations.
* You can bind a Tween to a node. Tween will be removed automatically when the bound node is freed.
This can be used by editor plugins and non-game applications to
store data in the correct directories according to the
XDG Base Directory specification.
* Added a function to ignore subsequent commands if they don't fall within the slice.
* This will be used by the new TileMap to properly provide animated tiles.
* Renames for 2D and 3D
* Class name was confusing, given both 2D and 3D have a "visible" property that is unrelated to actual on-screen visibility.
* New name makes it clear that this is about visibility on screen.
* This is the 3D counterpart to #49632
* Implemented a bit different as 3D works using instancing
After merged, both 2D and 3D classes will most likely be renamed in a separate PR to DisplayNotifier2D/3D.
Updates rich_text_label so that the built-in documentation can be searched
Previously, it would only find the first result and would not select other results
Renames "_entered" functions to "_submitted"
* Works from RenderinServer
* Accurately tells when on or off-scren, its no longer approximate.
* VisibilityEnabler also simplified to use the process mode instead.
Renames get_parent_spatial() to get_parent_node3d() and changes its
implementation. Before it was not returning a correct pointer if the
node wasn't added to a SceneTree. Now it uses the same implementation as
CanvasItem, which will be correct even for nodes outside a SceneTree.
This commit adds the following properties to GeometryInstance3D: `visibility_range_begin`,
`visibility_range_begin_margin`, `visibility_range_end`, `visibility_range_end_margin`.
Together they define a range in which the GeometryInstance3D will be visible from the camera,
taking hysteresis into account for state changes. A begin or end value of 0 will be ignored,
so the visibility range can be open-ended in both directions.
This commit also adds the `visibility_parent` property to 'Node3D'.
Which defines the visibility parents of the node and its subtree (until
another parent is defined).
Visual instances with a visibility parent will only be visible when the parent, and all of its
ancestors recursively, are hidden because they are closer to the camera than their respective
`visibility_range_begin` thresholds.
Combining visibility ranges and visibility parents users can set-up a quick HLOD system
that shows high detail meshes when close (i.e buildings, trees) and merged low detail meshes
for far away groups (i.e. cities, woods).
Includes:
* Variant
* Viewport
and two fixes in Array that were pointed out in #40978
VisualScript classes are skipped on purpose.
That is the final commit of the inital code porting to C#. :)
* RingBuffer had no reason to be in this context
* A single buffer is used that can grow as much as the game needs.
This should make thread loading entirely reliable.
Physics FPS above 1000 cause the whole project to slow down
and are not very practical in the first place (since no CPU currently
available can keep up).
Updated the `SceneTree.quit()` method to include a note that on iOS this method won't work as apps are expected to be closed via the Home button, not programmatically.
Update Popup.xml
This PR and commit adds a new IK system for 2D with the Skeleton2D node
that adds several new IK solvers, a way to control bones in a Skeleton2D
node similar to that in Skeleton3D. It also adds additional changes
and functionality.
This work was sponsored by GSoC 2020 and TwistedTwigleg.
Full list of changes:
* Adds a SkeletonModifier2D resource
* This resource is the base where all IK code is written and executed
* Has a function for clamping angles, since it is so commonly used
* Modifiers are unique when duplicated so it works with instancing
* Adds a SkeletonModifierStack2D resource
* This resource manages a series of SkeletonModification2Ds
* This is what the Skeleton2D directly interfaces with to make IK possible
* Adds SkeletonModifier2D resources for LookAt, CCDIK, FABRIK, Jiggle, and TwoBoneIK
* Each modification is in its own file
* There is also a SkeletonModifier2D resource that acts as a stack for using multiple stacks together
* Adds a PhysicalBone2D node
* Works similar to the PhysicalBone3D node, but uses a RigidBody2D node
* Changes to Skeleton2D listed below:
* Skeleton2D now holds a single SkeletonModificationStack2D for IK
* Skeleton2D now has a local_pose_override, which overrides the Bone2D position similar to how the overrides work in Skeleton3D
* Changes to Bone2D listed below:
* The default_length property has been changed to length. Length is the length of the bone to its child bone node
* New bone_angle property, which is the angle the bone has to its first child bone node
* Bone2D caches its transform when not modified by IK for IK interpolation purposes
* Bone2D draws its own editor gizmo, though this is stated to change in the future
* Changes to CanvasItemEditor listed below:
* Bone2D gizmo drawing code removed
* The 2D IK code is removed. Now Bone2D is the only bone system for 2D
* Transform2D now has a looking_at function for rotating to face a position
* Two new node notifications: NOTIFICATION_EDITOR_PRE_SAVE and NOTIFICATION_EDITOR_POST_SAVE
* These notifications only are called in the editor right before and after saving a scene
* Needed for not saving the IK position when executing IK in the editor
* Documentation for all the changes listed above.
* 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.
