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 🎆
In general they are more confusing to users because they expect
inheritance to fully override parent methods. This behavior can be
enabled by script writers using a simple super() call.
Change error checking in `duplicate_signals()` to check for path to
`p_original`, thus adhering to the method used in `duplicate`, instead
of checking for ownership.
I couldn't find a tool that enforces it, so I went the manual route:
```
find -name "thirdparty" -prune \
-o -name "*.cpp" -o -name "*.h" -o -name "*.m" -o -name "*.mm" \
-o -name "*.glsl" > files
perl -0777 -pi -e 's/\n}\n([^#])/\n}\n\n\1/g' $(cat files)
misc/scripts/fix_style.sh -c
```
This adds a newline after all `}` on the first column, unless they
are followed by `#` (typically `#endif`). This leads to having lots
of places with two lines between function/class definitions, but
clang-format then fixes it as we enforce max one line of separation.
This doesn't fix potential occurrences of function definitions which
are indented (e.g. for a helper class defined in a .cpp), but it's
better than nothing. Also can't be made to run easily on CI/hooks so
we'll have to be careful with new code.
Part of #33027.
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.
Note: Only replaced 2 instances to test, Node.get_children and TileMap.get_used_cells
Note: Will do a mass replace on later PRs of whathever I can find, but probably need
a tool to grep through doc.
Warning: Mono will break, needs to be fixed (and so do TypeScript and NativeScript, need to ask respective maintainers)
It's tedious work...
Some can't be ported as they depend on private or protected methods
of different classes, which is not supported by callable_mp (even if
it's a class inherited by the current one).
- Renames PackedIntArray to PackedInt32Array.
- Renames PackedFloatArray to PackedFloat32Array.
- Adds PackedInt64Array and PackedFloat64Array.
- Renames Variant::REAL to Variant::FLOAT for consistency.
Packed arrays are for storing large amount of data and creating stuff like
meshes, buffers. textures, etc. Forcing them to be 64 is a huge waste of
memory. That said, many users requested the ability to have 64 bits packed
arrays for their games, so this is just an optional added type.
For Variant, the float datatype is always 64 bits, and exposed as `float`.
We still have `real_t` which is the datatype that can change from 32 to 64
bits depending on a compile flag (not entirely working right now, but that's
the idea). It affects math related datatypes and code only.
Neither Variant nor PackedArray make use of real_t, which is only intended
for math precision, so the term is removed from there to keep only float.
- Now is sent the method ID rather the full function name.
- The passed IDs (Node and Method) are compressed so to use less possible space.
- The variant (INT and BOOL) is now encoded and compressed so to use much less data.
- Optimized RPCMode retrieval for GDScript functions.
- Added checksum to assert the methods are the same across peers.

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 method can be used to generate custom node warnings by script.
Node::_get_configuration_warning was already exposed to generate custom warnings, but it wasn't fully usable without being able to notify the scene tree when the warning needs to appear or change.
It's not necessary, but the vast majority of calls of error macros
do have an ending semicolon, so it's best to be consistent.
Most WARN_DEPRECATED calls did *not* have a semicolon, but there's
no reason for them to be treated differently.
In practice this only happens when duplicating a node which is not in
the scene tree yet, as nameless nodes get assigned a generated name
when added to the scene tree.
Fixes#27319.
It appears that Object::script may be a valid ScriptInstance but not be
castable to Ref<Script>. There were only 5 places in the code that made
this assumption. This commit fixes that.
reduz wanted the original PR reverted due to issues, so this follow-up had to be too
(done in 8cb54182ad). But he ended up adapting part of
the original PR in 27d7772381 without including this fix.
The conversion from an String to int can overflow int and int64
so it is safer to manipulate strings when we try to find the next
available name for a Node.
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.

Notable potentially breaking changes:
- PROPERTY_USAGE_NOEDITOR is now PROPERTY_USAGE_STORAGE | PROPERTY_USAGE_NETWORK, without PROPERTY_USAGE_INTERNAL
- Some properties were renamed, and sometimes even shadowed by new ones
- New getter methods (some virtual) were added
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.
-Fixes to unwrapper (remove degenerates), makes Thekla not crash
-Added optional cancel button in EditorProgress
-Added function to force processing of events (needed for cancel button)
That happened when an instanced scene was being duplicated while it also contained nodes added to it in the scene holding the instance.
Plus:
- Add comments about the logic behind all this.
- Move the null guard to where it can protect the most, but consider it a runtime error rather that a situation we expect.
Fixes#13282.
- Partially revert 6496b53549, adding a comment about why duplications of signals must happen as a second phase.
- Add fallback logic for connections to nodes not in the duplicated hierarchy.
- Remove redundant call to `Node::_duplicate_signals()`.
Fixes#12951.
Rename user facing methods and variables as well as the corresponding
C++ methods according to the folloming changes:
* pos -> position
* rot -> rotation
* loc -> location
C++ variables are left as is.
When duplicating node with script, properties of script
weren't copied sometimes.
It happened because properties were copied in arbitrary
order, and properties of the script were setted before the
"script" property itself, i.e. while script is sill NULL.
Also, DUPLICATE_SCRIPTS flag wasn't working - script was
always copied because `_duplicate` looked for
"script/script" property while it should be just "script".
Now "script" property is being set before all others,
and "script/script" changed to
`CoreStringNames::get_singleton()->_script`.
Currently we rely on some undefined behavior when Object->cast_to() gets
called with a Null pointer. This used to work fine with GCC < 6 but
newer versions of GCC remove all codepaths in which the this pointer is
Null. However, the non-static cast_to() was supposed to be null safe.
This patch makes cast_to() Null safe and removes the now redundant Null
checks where they existed.
It is explained in this article: https://www.viva64.com/en/b/0226/
It is possible to propagate a notification down the Node tree by
using `propagate_notification`, but there was no such method for
doing the same but with method calls.
This commit adds the `propagate_call` method, which calls a method
on a node and all child nodes. An optional paramter `parent_first`
determines whether the parent node gets called before or after the
children have been visited. It defaults to false, so the parent
gets called last.
Thereby, the editor will acknowledge node namings such as _Thing003_ so that a duplicate, for instance, will be named _Thing004_, instead of _Thing4_, that was the case formerly.
Closes#7758.
This avoids the display folded flag needlessly getting into the scene file (potentially forever) and also gives more visual feedback if the user re-enables editable children so it will display unfolded at first.
I can show you the code
Pretty, with proper whitespace
Tell me, coder, now when did
You last write readable code?
I can open your eyes
Make you see your bad indent
Force you to respect the style
The core devs agreed upon
A whole new world
A new fantastic code format
A de facto standard
With some sugar
Enforced with clang-format
A whole new world
A dazzling style we all dreamed of
And when we read it through
It's crystal clear
That now we're in a whole new world of code
to decide whether signals, groups and/or scripts should be set in the copied nodes or not; it's default value makes the method include everything, as usual
The method _generate_serial_child_name is indeed called relatively often
in editor mode, but that commented out code chunk hardly adds to its
slowness (and with the default setting, not at all).
Also did various related code cleanups and simplifications.
-An action being requested to the user in present tense: (ie, draw, gui_input, etc)
-A notification that an action happened, in past tense (ie, area_entered, modal_closed, etc).
- C++ Nodes mostly do an internal process callback, so it does not conflict with users willing to use their own process callbacks
- callbacks such as _input, _process, _fixed_process _unhandled_input, _unhandled_key_input do not requiere calling a function to enable them. They are enabled automatically if found on the script.
-Changed SectionedPropertyEditor to support this
-Renamed Globals singleton to GlobalConfig, makes more sense.
-Changed the logic behind persisten global settings, instead of the persist checkbox, a revert button is now available
That year should bring the long-awaited OpenGL ES 3.0 compatible renderer
with state-of-the-art rendering techniques tuned to work as low as middle
end handheld devices - without compromising with the possibilities given
for higher end desktop games of course. Great times ahead for the Godot
community and the gamers that will play our games!
-Most 2D drawing is implemented
-Missing shaders
-Missing all 3D
-Editor needs to be set on update always to be used, otherwise it does not refresh
-Large parts of editor not working
All classes were reviewed apart from VisualServer for which no argument name is documented at all.
While doing this review, I found quite a few bugs that were fixed either in earlier commits or this one (mostly documentation bugs though, i.e. some arguments were listed at the wrong place).
1) press the heart while the game is running
2) select a scene to live edit from the opened scenes
3) edit/add/remove nodes or resources, change their properties, etc.
4) watch changes reflected in running game, in all places this scene is
edited
5) It's not perfect obviously, but the aim of it is to try to reflect
your changes as best as possible in the running game.
A general speedup should be apparent, with even more peformance increase when compiling optimized.
WARNING: Tested and it seems to work, but if something breaks, please report.
