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 🎆
Implementation for new Variant types Callable, Signal, StringName.
Added support for PackedInt64Array and PackedFloat64Array.
Add generation of signal members as events, as well as support for
user created signals as events.
NOTE: As of now, raising such events will not emit the signal. As such,
one must use `EmitSignal` instead of raising the event directly.
Removed old ThreadLocal fallback class. It's safe to use thread_local now since
it's supported on all minimum versions of compilers we support.
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.
Expands to Object.call, Object.set and Object.get for accessing members. This means it can also access members from scripts written in other languages, like GDScript.
- We no longer generate RID and NodePath C# classes. Both will be maintained manually.
- We no longer generate C# declarations and runtime registration of internal calls for the following classes: RID, NodePath, String, GD, SignalAwaiter and Godot.Object (partial base).
- We no longer auto-generate the base members of Godot.Object. They will be maintained manually as a partial class.
This makes it easier to maintain these C# classes and their internal calls, as well as the bindings generator which no longer generates C# classes that don't derive from Godot Object, and it no longer generates the Godot.Object base members (which where unreadable in the bindings generator code).
- Added missing 'RID(Object from)' constructor to the RID C# class.
- Replaced MONO_GLUE_DISABLED constant macro with MONO_GLUE_ENABLED.
- Add sources in module/mono/glue even if glue is disabled, but surround glue files with ifdef MONO_GLUE_ENABLED.
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.
- alloc_language_binding: Use strong GC handle as well for references. Fixes#15138
- Set the native instance field of Godot.Object to IntPtr.Zero when it's freed.
- Create weak handles without tracking resurrection (that was causing trouble). This means we have to call notification predelete before queueing a native Object for deletion, and use the MonoObject* passed by the finalizer because the weak GC handle target will return NULL at this point.
