Having to rename project settings is rare, but when it does occur it can cause user confusion. In order to make compatibility more seamless this PR introduces two new GLOBAL_DEF functions,
GLOBAL_DEF_ALIAS(new_name, old_name, default)
GLOBAL_DEF_ALIAS_RST(new_name, old_name, default)
These are the same as the existing GLOBAL_DEF functions except that if the new setting is not found, it attempts to load from the old setting name. If the old setting is found, it stores it into the new setting, and then calls the regular GLOBAL_DEF functions.
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.
When opening projects for edition through the project manager, the
following checks are now done:
1. If the config_version is lower than the one used by the current
engine version, users are asked if they want to convert to the new
format or abort editing. Fixes#20626.
2. If the config_version is higher than the expected one (project
from a more recent and incompatible engine version), projects are
grayed out and can't be edited. Fixes#18758.
When editing from the command line, the behaviour is unchanged:
projects in situation (1) are automatically converted, while projects
in situation (2) show an error message (made more explicit).
The "Run" option from the project manager was not changed, so it will
still run (1) projects without converting them, and fail running (2)
projects.

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.
-Project/Editor settings now show tooltips properly
-Settings thar require restart now will show a restart warning
-Video driver is now visible all the time, can be changed easily
-Added function to request current video driver
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.
