As many open source projects have started doing it, we're removing the
current year from the copyright notice, so that we don't need to bump
it every year.
It seems like only the first year of publication is technically
relevant for copyright notices, and even that seems to be something
that many companies stopped listing altogether (in a version controlled
codebase, the commits are a much better source of date of publication
than a hardcoded copyright statement).
We also now list Godot Engine contributors first as we're collectively
the current maintainers of the project, and we clarify that the
"exclusive" copyright of the co-founders covers the timespan before
opensourcing (their further contributions are included as part of Godot
Engine contributors).
Also fixed "cf." Frenchism - it's meant as "refer to / see".
Backported from #70885.
Move VisualServer interpolation data out of Scenario and into VisualServerScene, so the interpolation data and enabled status is now common to all Scenarios.
Fix physics interpolation in multithreaded mode by ensuring tick and pre-draw are called.
Adds fixed timestep interpolation to the visual server.
Switchable on and off with project setting.
This version does not add new API for set_transform etc, when nodes have the interpolated flag set they will always use interpolation.
When editor continuous redraws is switched off, the editor only redraws when a redraw_request was issued by an element in the scene. This works well in most situations, but when scenes have dynamic content they will continuously issue redraw_requests.
This can be fine on high power desktops but can be an annoyance on lower power machines.
This PR splits redraw requests into high and low priority requests, defaulting to high priority. Requests due to e.g. shaders using TIME are assigned low priority.
An extra editor setting is used to record the user preference and an extra option is added to the editor spinner menu, to allow the user to select between 3 modes:
* Continuous
* Update all changes
* Update vital changes
Leaves in the bug fixes, but reverts the change to the update method.
Turns out the new update method of getting the scenarios was causing problems, I will need to consult with reduz on the best way of getting access to the scenarios for a single update per frame.
Doing multiple updates isn't terrible but it should be nicer to get a single update working, as it should be more efficient, and give a single point for pairing callbacks.
Change render BVH update scheme from once per update_dirty_instances to a new update_scenarios function called once per draw.
Fix lights not being properly unpaired.
Fixed bug in add_changed_item where AABBs were not being updated due to more than one update per tick.
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 🎆
(cherry picked from commit b5334d14f7)
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.
This allows more consistency in the manner we include core headers,
where previously there would be a mix of absolute, relative and
include path-dependent includes.
The rasterisers (both GLES3 and GLES2) were calculating their own frame delta time
This fix lets the rasterizers get the frame delta through the draw call
That way any regulations to the frame step from the main script will not cause particle systems to process at a different step than the rest of the Engine.
Remove unused rasterizer storage variable
frame.prev_tick variable were not used anywhere and has been removed
Using `misc/scripts/fix_headers.py` on all Godot files.
Some missing header guards were added, and the header inclusion order
was fixed in the Bullet module.
