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 🎆
The API is implemented in javascript, and generates C functions that can
be called from godot.
This allows much cleaner code replacing all `EM_ASM` calls in our C++
code with plain C function calls.
This also gets rid of few hacks and comes with few optimizations (e.g.
custom cursor shapes should be much faster now).
The engine now expects to emscripten FS to be setup and sync-ed before
main is called. This is exposed via `Module["initFS"]` which also allows
to setup multiple persistence paths (internal use only for now).
Additionally, FS syncing is done **once** for every loop if at least one
file in a persistent path was open for writing and closed, and if the FS
is not syncing already.
This should potentially fix issues reported by users where "autosave"
would not work on the web (never calling `syncfs` because of too many
writes).
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.

At least in chrome, the following error is printed for each mouse wheel
rotation:
[Intervention] Unable to preventDefault inside passive event listener due to target being treated as passive. See https://www.chromestatus.com/features/6662647093133312
This PR moves the handler to the canvas and thereby fixes the error.
Tested on: Chrome and Firefox (MacOS), Firefox, Chrome(Android), Safari (IPad + MacOS)
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`.
- Refactored the Engine code, splitted across files.
- Use MODULARIZE option to build emscripten code into it's own closure.
- Enable lto support (saves ~2MiB in release).
- Enable optional closure compiler pass for JS and generated code.
- Enable optional pthreads support.
- Can now build with tools=yes (not much to see yet).
- Dropped some deprecated code for older toolchains.
Without this patch, the following exception is thrown when the touch
screen is used: TypeError: e.getBoundingClientRect is not a function.
No touch events arrive in the engine.
From my testing, this PR fixes the issue and behaves as expected.
Tested with godot-demo-projects/misc/multitouch_view/, emscripten 1.39.8
and Firefox mobile emulator as well as FF on Android
It was initially implemented in #5871 for Godot 3.0, but never really
completed or thoroughly tested for most platforms. It then stayed in
limbo and nobody seems really keen to finish it, so it's better to
remove it in 4.0, and re-add eventually (possibly with a different API)
if there's demand and an implementation confirmed working on all
platforms.
Closes#8770.
Due to the port to Vulkan and complete redesign of the rendering backend,
the `drivers/gles3` code is no longer usable in this state and is not
planned to be ported to the new architecture.
The GLES2 backend is kept (while still disabled and non-working) as it
will eventually be ported to serve as the low-end renderer for Godot 4.0.
Some GLES3 features might be selectively ported to the updated GLES2
backend if there's a need for them, and extensions we can use for that.
So long, OpenGL driver bugs!
-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
Fixes compatibility with emscripten 1.39.5+ .
Most input callbacks now require a target and no longer support NULL
defaults.
This commit changes all required null targets to the expected default in
the binding phase.
Since for canvas-related callbacks there is no default, the "#canvas"
selector is used instead.
Additionally, since canvasX and canvasY event properties are no longer
supported, event positions are computed from "clientX" and "clientY" and
the "#canvas" bounding client rect.
It was removed as noted in the changelog:
https://github.com/emscripten-core/emscripten/blob/1.39.5/ChangeLog.md#v1395-12202019
> Removed `timestamp` field from mouse, wheel, devicemotion and
> deviceorientation events. The presence of a `timestamp` on these
> events was slightly arbitrary, and populating this field caused
> a small profileable overhead that all users might not care about.
> It is easy to get a timestamp of an event by calling
> `emscripten_get_now()` or `emscripten_performance_now()` inside
> the event handler function of any event.
Fixes#34648.
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.
