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 🎆
As a bonus, to have consistency between use Beziers and create insert tracks, use Beziers also gets a default via editor settings that is used when the confirmation dialog is disabled, instead of just falling back to creating non-Bezier tracks.
This makes it possible to view far away objects without
having to tweak any settings. This results in a more usable
editor when working on large-scale levels.
This change should have no impact on performance, but note that
Z-fighting will be visible at a distance. This can be made less
visible by increasing the Znear value (however, doing so will cause
nearby surfaces to disappear).
This change was also applied to the editor, but it will only
apply to newly created scenes.
This also changes the default camera settings in the glTF importer
to match the Camera node's defaults.
The code we had for PVRTexTool doesn't work as it's not compatible with current
PVRTexTool CLI options, and likely hasn't been for years.
Instead, we have our own vendored pvrtccompressor thirdparty library which all
users have thus de-facto been using. This commit moves the compress code to
`modules/pvr` where it belongs.
There's no proper compress function for PVRTC 2-bit format, that's a bug that
will need to be fixed (currently it's compressed as 4-bit format even if you
use Image::FORMAT_PVRTC2).
Fixes#28669.
- Extacted all syntax highlighting code from text edit
- Removed enable syntax highlighting from text edit
- Added line_edited_from signal to text_edit
- Renamed get/set_syntax_highlighting to get/set_syntax_highlighter
- Added EditorSyntaxHighligher
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.
- Parse `.po` files from `doc/translations/*.po` like already done
with `editor/translations/*.po`.
- Add logic to register a doc translation mapping in `TranslationServer`
and `EditorSettings`.
- Add `DTR()` to lookup the doc translation mapping (similar to `TTR()`).
Strings are automatically dedented and stripped of whitespace to ensure
that they would match the translation catalog.
- Use `DTR()` to translate relevant strings in `EditorHelp`,
`EditorInspector`, `CreateDialog`, `ConnectionsDialog`.
- Small simplification to `TranslationLoaderPO`, the path argument was
not really meaningful.
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`.
- Renames PackedIntArray to PackedInt32Array.
- Renames PackedFloatArray to PackedFloat32Array.
- Adds PackedInt64Array and PackedFloat64Array.
- Renames Variant::REAL to Variant::FLOAT for consistency.
Packed arrays are for storing large amount of data and creating stuff like
meshes, buffers. textures, etc. Forcing them to be 64 is a huge waste of
memory. That said, many users requested the ability to have 64 bits packed
arrays for their games, so this is just an optional added type.
For Variant, the float datatype is always 64 bits, and exposed as `float`.
We still have `real_t` which is the datatype that can change from 32 to 64
bits depending on a compile flag (not entirely working right now, but that's
the idea). It affects math related datatypes and code only.
Neither Variant nor PackedArray make use of real_t, which is only intended
for math precision, so the term is removed from there to keep only float.
The default value is 80. The hard line length guideline's
default column has been moved to 100 to account for the new
soft line length guideline.
It can be disabled by setting its value to the same column as the
hard line length guideline.
This closes https://github.com/godotengine/godot-proposals/issues/347.
The `project.godot` file will always be modified when editing a project,
but not when running it. This effectively makes the option sort by
last edition date, rather than modification as is typically understood
by users.
This closes#36127.
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.
