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 🎆
Changes:
* EngineDebugger is exposed to gdscript. Game side of communication can be implemented through it.
* EditorDebuggerPlugin is added which handles the editor side of communication.
ToolButton has no redeeming differences with Button;
it's just a Button with the Flat property enabled by default.
Removing it avoids some confusion when creating GUIs.
Existing ToolButtons will be converted to Buttons, but the Flat
property won't be enabled automatically.
This closes https://github.com/godotengine/godot-proposals/issues/1081.
I couldn't find a tool that enforces it, so I went the manual route:
```
find -name "thirdparty" -prune \
-o -name "*.cpp" -o -name "*.h" -o -name "*.m" -o -name "*.mm" \
-o -name "*.glsl" > files
perl -0777 -pi -e 's/\n}\n([^#])/\n}\n\n\1/g' $(cat files)
misc/scripts/fix_style.sh -c
```
This adds a newline after all `}` on the first column, unless they
are followed by `#` (typically `#endif`). This leads to having lots
of places with two lines between function/class definitions, but
clang-format then fixes it as we enforce max one line of separation.
This doesn't fix potential occurrences of function definitions which
are indented (e.g. for a helper class defined in a .cpp), but it's
better than nothing. Also can't be made to run easily on CI/hooks so
we'll have to be careful with new code.
Part of #33027.
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.
Using `clang-tidy`'s `modernize-use-default-member-init` check and
manual review of the changes, and some extra manual changes that
`clang-tidy` failed to do.
Also went manually through all of `core` to find occurrences that
`clang-tidy` couldn't handle, especially all initializations done
in a constructor without using initializer lists.
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`.
-Texture renamed to Texture2D
-TextureLayered as base now inherits 2Darray, cubemap and cubemap array
-Removed all references to flags in textures (they will go in the shader)
-Texture3D gone for now (will come back later done properly)
-Create base rasterizer for RenderDevice, RasterizerRD
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.
get_selected_path returns only the resource directory.
get_current_path fulfils the need to get the full path.
This does not break backward compatibility and the function (get_current_path)
is already available in FileSystemDock just like get_selected_path.
Fixes 30652.
ptrcall assumes methods that return a Reference type do so with Ref<T>. Returning Reference* from a method exposed to the scripting API completely breaks ptrcalls to this method (it can be quite hard to debug!).
- From now materials assigned to the MeshInstance (not the Mesh) get exported
into the MeshLibrary when such materials exist. This enables workflows where
the MeshLibrary is exported from an imported scene (e.g. GLTF) where the
materials assigned to the Mesh (not the MeshInstance) get overwritten on
re-import, thus can't use editor set materials in the exported MeshLibrary
unless they are assigned to the MeshInstance whose materials get saved with
the inherited scene thus persist across re-imports.
- When appending to an existing MeshLibrary only generate previews for newly
added or modified meshes.
- During preview generation transform camera and lights instead of the mesh
and use the source MeshInstance's transform for the mesh to avoid weird
previews being generated for meshes with a position dependent material
(e.g. when using triplanar mapping).
- Adjust the camera angle and light directions used in mesh preview generation
for better results.
