This commit completely removes the RPC_MODE_MASTER ("master" keyword),
and renames the RPC_MODE_PUPPET to RPC_MODE_AUTHORITY ("auth" keyword).
This commit also renames the "Node.[get|set]_network_master" methods to
"Node.[get|set]_network_authority".
This commit also renames the RPC_MODE_REMOTE constant to RPC_MODE_ANY.
RPC_MODE_MASTER in Godot 3.x meant that a given RPC would be callable by
any puppet peer on the master, while RPC_MODE_PUPPET meant that it would
be callable by the master on any puppet.
Beside proving to be very confusing to the user (referring to where it
could be called instead of who can call it) the RPC_MODE_MASTER is quite
useless. It is almost the same as RPC_MODE_REMOTE (anyone can call) with
the exception that the network master cannot. While this could be useful
to check in some case, in such a function you would anyway need to check
in code who is the caller via get_rpc_sender_id(), so adding the check
there for those rare cases does not warrants a dedicated mode.
With this commit the macro `memnew_placement` uses the standard memory
placement syntax: `new (mem) TheClass()`, and removes the outdated and
not used syntax:
```
_ALWAYS_INLINE_ void *operator new(size_t p_size, void *p_pointer, size_t check, const char *p_description) {
```
Thanks to this change, the function `memnew_placement` call is compatible with
any class, and can also initialize classes with non-empty constructor:
```
// This is valid, like before.
memnew_placement(mem, Variant);
// This works too:
memnew_placement(mem, Variant(123));
```
For the time being we don't support writing a description for those, preferring
having all details in the method's description.
Using self-closing tags saves half the lines, and prevents contributors from
thinking that they should write the argument or return documentation there.
* Added a new macro SNAME() that constructs and caches a local stringname.
* Subsequent usages use the cached version.
* Since these use a global static variable, a second refcounter of static usages need to be kept for cleanup time.
* Replaced all theme usages by this new macro.
* Replace all signal emission usages by this new macro.
* Replace all call_deferred usages by this new macro.
This is part of ongoing work to optimize GUI and the editor.
* This PR adds the ability to disable classes when building.
* For now it's only possible to do this via command like:
`scons disable_classes=RayCast2D,Area3D`
* Eventually, a proper UI will be implemented to create a build config file to do this at large scale, as well as detect what is used in the project.
* The harcoded 8 slots are no more and impose limits in the new extension system.
* New system is limitless, although it will impose small performance hit with a mutex.
* Use a token to request the instance binding.
**Warning**: Mono will most likely break as a result of this, will need to be modified to use the new system.
* 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
Instead of the String representation, which can be finicky to work with.
VariantWriter is more robust since changes to it affects the whole
system thus it's changed less often and it's never ambiguous.
In this PR:
- Removed rset
- rpc_config can now optionally configure transfer mode
(reliable/unreliable/ordered) and channel (channels are not actually
implemented yet.)
- Refactor how the RPC id is computed to minimize the logic in Node and
scripts that now only needs a single `get_rpc_methods` function.
