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!
Upgrade Gradle and Android plugin for Gradle
Disable all signing and zip-aligning for the export templates
Give correct names to generated APKs
Put .so files built by SCons right where Gradle has to pick them according to arch & build type
Downgrade NDK platform to 14 to match minSdkVersion
using ``NotificationCompat`` in ``support-v4`` library will increase APK filesize a little bit, but it guarantees to run OK with API 4+
tested with API 19 and 23 devices
If we update build gradle to use ``compileSdkVersion 23``,
``org.apache.http`` package causes error. (issue #4711)
We need to use ``useLibrary 'org.apache.http.legacy'`` to solve this problem.
To use ``useLibrary``, we need to use latest gradle also.
And now, we faced another problem with ``APK Expansion`` java sources.
```
/platform/android/java/src/com/google/android/vending/expansion/downloader/impl/DownloadNotification.java
137 : mCurrentNotification.setLatestEventInfo(mContext, mCurrentTitle, mCurrentText, mContentIntent); // causes error
```
So, some of APK Expansion java sources are updated by referencing commits from https://github.com/danikula/Google-Play-Expansion-File
And dropped V3CustomNotification.java which was for android 3.0, since godot supports android 14 (4.0) above officially.
Unfortunately, another problem, The 'MissingTranslation' error was occurred.
So, build.gradle is updated to use ``disable 'MissingTranslation'``
Additionally, I updated ``buildToolsVersion``, ``targetSdkVersion`` to latest version.
I tested APK Expansion funtionality on Android 6.0 (Nexus 9, Nexus 6p) and Android 4.4 (Galaxy Note 2) with Google Developer console.
add version_info and icon sections in "export to windows platform".
add version_info and icon to godot exe file (editor & template exe).
fix an problem in image class.
change all default icons to android export icon (a little more rounded).
create an python script for convert file to cpp byte array for use in
'splash.h'.
- Was duplicating the functionality of event.getActionIndex() but was missing the bitmask.
- Switched back to getActionIndex() but kept the corrected getPointerId() from

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
-New Vehicle (Based on Bullet's RaycastVehicle) - Vehiclebody/VehicleWheel. Demo will come soon, old vehicle (CarBody) will go away soon too.
-A lot of fixes to the 3D physics engine
-Added KinematicBody with demo
-Fixed the space query API for 2D (demo will come soon). 3D is WIP.
-Fixed long-standing bug with body_enter/body_exit for Area and Area2D
-Performance variables now includes physics (active bodies, collision pairs and islands)
-Ability to see what's inside of instanced scenes!
-Fixed Blend Shapes (no bs+skeleton yet)
-Added an Android JavaClassWrapper singleton for using Android native classes directly from GDScript. This is very Alpha!
-=-=-=-=-=-
-Fixed small bugs all around
-Added ability to show/hide entire sections of the spatial (3D) tree
-WIP new vehicle (not ready yet) based on Bullet
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
-Begin work on Navigation Meshes (simple pathfinding for now, will improve soon)
-More doc on theme overriding
-Upgraded OpenSSL to version without bugs
-Misc bugfixes
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=
-Ability to set 2D nodes as bones
-Abity to set 2D nodes as IK chains
-2D IK Solver
-Improvements in the UI for adding keyframes (separate loc,rot,scale buttons)
================================
-resolved many graphical glitches with multiple lights in GLES2 render
-fixes and WIP apk expansion
-joystick support for Android by Ariel
==========
-NOTIFICATION_WM_QUIT fixed on android (seems tha way this is reported changed in newer sdk)
-WIP implementation of APK Expansion APIs for publishing games larger than 50mb in Play Store
-Feaures in the new tutorials are all present in the sourcecode
-This (hopefully) should get rid of the animation list order getting corrupted
-Improved 3D Scene Importer (Skeletons, Animations and other stuff were not being merged). Anything missing?
-In code editor, the automatic syntax checker will only use file_exists() to check preload() else it might freeze the editor too much while typing if the preload is a big resource
-Fixed bugs in PolygonPathFinder, stil pending to do a node and a demo
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
-Auto indenter in code editor, this makes it much easier to paste external code.
-Zoom in 2D viewport now uses the mouse pointer as reference.
-Obscure hack to see where code/line of GDScript in C++ backtrace.
-Fixed a bug where keys would get stuck on X11 if pressed simultaneously
-Added Api on IP singleton to request local IPs.
-Premultiplied alpha support when importing texture, editing PNGs and as a blend mode.
-Added new screen resizing options, stretch_2d is removed, new much more flexible ones.
-Fixed bug in viewport (can create more instances in 3d-in-2d demo now)
-Can set android permissions and screen sizes manually in the export settings
-Changed export templates extension to .tpz (too many people unzipped the manually..)
-File dialog now ensures that the proper extension is used (will not allow to save without it)
-Fixed bug that made collision exceptions not work in 2D
-Detect when free() might crash the project and throw error
-fixed 2D Bounce in physics (3d still broken)
-renamed “on_top” property to “behind_parent”, which makes more sense, old on_top remains there for compatibility but is invisible.
-large amount of fixes
-fix some menus
-fixed bug in out transition curves
-detect and remove file:/// in collada
-remove multiscript for now
-remove dependencies on mouse in OS, moved to Input
-avoid fscache from screwing up (fix might make it slower, but it works)
-funcref was missing, it's there now
fix hide soft keyboard by press 'back' button,
then click current focus text edit/line edit control,
soft keyboard won't show again
add features:
press enter key with line edit control will hide soft keyboard
-fixed TouchScreenButton with stretch2d
-fixed(?) OSX crash on startup (test!!)
-compilation fixes on windows
-CollisionPolygon editor works again
-find buttons en find dialog
-TileMap editor cleanup (removed "error", made nicer)
-viewport flicker fixed
-make .scn default extension for saving scenes
-export the rest of the network classes to gdscript
