This is the follow up for the 2D changes mentioned in PR #6865. It fixes various mistakes regarding the order of matrix indices, order of transformation operations, usage of atan2 function and ensures that the sense of rotation is compatible with a left-handed coordinate system with Y-axis pointing down (which flips the sense of rotations along the z-axis). Also replaced float with real_t, and tried to make use of Matrix32 methods rather than accessing its elements directly.
Affected code in the Godot code base is also fixed in this commit.
The user code using functions involving angles such as atan2, angle_to, get_rotation, set_rotation will need to be updated to conform with the new behavior. Furthermore, the sign of the rotation angles in existing 2D scene files need to be flipped as well.
That year should bring the long-awaited OpenGL ES 3.0 compatible renderer
with state-of-the-art rendering techniques tuned to work as low as middle
end handheld devices - without compromising with the possibilities given
for higher end desktop games of course. Great times ahead for the Godot
community and the gamers that will play our games!
