It took me some hours of trying and wondering and one question with a very helpful answer in the facebook group to figure out that the color_ramp gradient actually modifies the vertex color of the particle mesh (but NOT the albedo). After knowing this enabling vertex_color_use_as_albedo in the SpatialMaterial led to success.
I hope adding this little hint:
"Each particle's vertex color will vary along this [GradientTexture]."
Might help other people which stumble upon this...
The mouse_filter documentation was biased towards button click events, so add more mention of its impact on mouse_entered and mouse_exited signals as well.
It has a big impact on 2D and text rendering performance (cf. #24466)
so the solution seems worse than the bug it aims to work around.
It's now opt-in via "rendering/quality/2d/gles2_use_nvidia_rect_flicker_workaround"
for those who need it and have a simple enough game for the performance
drop not to be an issue.
Fixes#24466.
It's now smart and keeps track of every entity in the doc files. Now it can pick up on broken references and such inside the doc files.
Eventually we'll be able to run it on Travis and check for errors automatically.
General file cleanup.
References to elements of classes now have a prefix for their type. class_Control_minimum_size_changed becomes class_Control_method_minimum_size_changed, or signal_, because the reason I did this was to fix reference conflicts.
You can also reference constants now with BBCode.
Also made it use argparse, adding an --output and a --dry-run argument.
I did not fix all the errors it's reporting in the documentation files, there's about 150+ of them but that's outside of the scope of this commit.
Man this file even had some semicolons in it.
I cleaned up the entire file, while it's still pretty ugly it's much better now.
I also added type checks so it passes mypy --strict.
make_type now throws a warning on unresolved type references, which there are a bunch of. I'm not responsible for fixing those though.
Also some more hardening against crashes. For example XML tags without content won't cause crashes now.
Functionality has not been modified as far as I can tell.
