* Re-introduces a property for portals to decide whether they are included in room bounds during room conversion.
* Adds a special case for portals that extend into the start room, which may be caused by level design inaccuracies.
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.
Sphere occluders are now tested for self occlusion. Spheres that are behind another sphere in the current view are superfluous so can be removed, cutting down on the runtime calculations.
AABBs are now maintained for Occluders as well as individual spheres, meaning a bunch of occluder spheres can be frustum rejected as a block.
Add framework for supporting geometrical occluders within rooms, and add support for sphere occluders.
Includes gizmos for editing.
They also work outside the portal system.
Small bug in the logic, the roaming objects only should be set to done when they have been marked as visible, rather than the first time they are examined. This is because they can be seen in a room through multiple portals, and each needs to be tested until there is either a visible result or all the portals in are visited.
In some situations looking out from an internal room it was possible to look back into the portal into the internal room.
This PR fixes this by keeping a single item 'stack' record of the last external room, and preventing recursing into this room. This also makes tracing significantly more efficient out of internal rooms, as there is no need to trace the external room multiple times.
When using the preview camera feature it turns out as well as culling the game objects, this also culls the editor gizmos from the preview camera, which makes the editor hard to use in this mode.
To get around this problem we simply disable frustum culling for GLOBAL portal_mode objects when in preview camera mode. This could be a bit slower in an editor scene with lots of gizmos but is the simplest way of solving the problem.
