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.
Condensed some if and ERR statements. Added dots to end of error messages
Couldn't figure out EXPLAINC. These files gave me trouble: core/error_macros.h, core/io/file_access_buffered_fa.h (where is it?),
core/os/memory.cpp,
drivers/png/png_driver_common.cpp,
drivers/xaudio2/audio_driver_xaudio2.cpp (where is it?)
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
Now generating mouse events from touch is optional (on by default) and it's performed by `InputDefault` instead of having each OS abstraction doing it. (*)
The translation algorithm waits for a touch index to be pressed and tracks it translating its events to mouse events until it is raised, while ignoring other pointers.
Furthermore, to avoid an stuck "touch mouse", since not all platforms may report touches raised when the window is unfocused, it checks if touches are still down by the time it's focused again and if so it resets the state of the emulated mouse.
*: In the case of Windows, since it already provides touch-to-mouse translation by itself, "echo" mouse events are filtered out to have it working like the rest.
On X11 a little hack has been needed to avoid a case of a spurious mouse motion event that is generated during touch interaction.
Plus: Improve/fix tracking of current mouse position.
** Summary of changes to settings: **
- `display/window/handheld/emulate_touchscreen` becomes `input/pointing_devices/emulate_touch_from_mouse`
- New setting: `input/pointing_devices/emulate_mouse_from_touch`
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.
This allows to specify any valid folder name (including with subfolders) to use
as user:// on all platforms. The folder is constrained to the platform-specific
OS::get_data_path() (typically what `XDG_DATA_HOME` resolves to).
Fixes#13236.
- EditorExportPlugin's _export_begin accepts all the arguments related
to the current export (is_debug, path, flags).
- EditorExportPlugin API is extended with methods allowing to configure
iOS export: add_ios_framework, add_ios_plist_content,
add_ios_linker_flags, add_ios_bundle_file.
- iOS export template now contains Godot as a static library so that
it can be linked with third-party Frameworks and GDNative static
libraries.
- Adds method to DirAccess for recursive copying of a directory.
- Fixes iOS export to work with Xcode 9 (released recently).
Removes the need for _MKSTR all over the place which has the drawback of
converting _MKSTR(UNKNOWN_DEFINE) to "UKNOWN_DEFINE" instead of throwing
a compilation error.
Spec version 0.7 from https://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-0.7.html
(latest as of this commit).
Three virtual methods are added to OS for the various XDG paths we will use:
- OS::get_data_path gives XDG_DATA_HOME, or if missing:
~/.local/share on X11, ~/Library/Application Support/ on macOS and %APPDATA% on Windows
- OS::get_config_path gives XDG_CONFIG_HOME, or if missing:
~/.config on X11, ~/Library/Application Support/ on macOS and %APPDATA% on Windows
- OS::get_cache_path gives XDG_CACHE_HOME, or if missing:
~/.cache on X11, ~/Library/Caches on macOS and %APPDATA% on Windows
So for Windows there are no changes, for Linux we follow the full split spec
and for macOS stuff will move from ~/.godot to ~/Library/Application Support/Godot.
Support for system-wide installation of templates on Unix was removed for now,
as it's a bit hackish and I don't think anyone uses it.
user:// will still be OS::get_data_path() + "/godot/app_userdata/$name" by
default, but when using the application/config/use_shared_user_dir option
it will now use XDG_DATA_HOME/$name, e.g. ~/.local/share/MyGame.
For now everything still goes in EditorSettings::get_settings_dir(), but
this will be changed in a later commit to make use of the new splitting
where relevant.
Part of #3513.
On mobile platforms virtual keyboards take up significant amount of
screen space and UI containing a text box may need to be adjusted
after the keyboard appears to keep the text box visible to user. This
commit adds a way to obtain virtual keyabord height so that controls
are aware of how much they need to move.
Previously logging logic was scattered over OS class implementations
with plenty of duplication. Major changes in this commit:
- Extracted logging logic into a separate Logger hierarchy. It allows
easy configuration of logging mechanism depending on compile-time or
run-time configuration.
- Implemented RotatedFileLogger which is usually used with StdLogger,
providing persistency of logs. It is often important to be able to
obtain logs of the game even in production to be able to understand
what happened prior to some problem. On mobile there previously was
no way to obtain the logs aside from having the device connected to
your machine.
- flush() is not performed in release mode for every logged line. It
is only performed for errors.
