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.
This means that each time this scene is instanced, the resource will be unique!
As such, thanks to this, the following features were implemented:
-ButtonGroup is no longer a control, it's now a resource local to the scene
-ViewportTexture can be created from the editor and set to any object, making ViewportSprite and other kind of nodes obsolete!
-Added a NOTIFICATION_TRANSLATION_CHANGED for controls that need custom code
-Sorry, editor will not update automatically because it uses a different translatio method.
This is a part of the breaking changes proposed in PR #6865, solving the issue regarding the order of affine transformations described in #2565. This PR also fixes the affected code within Godot codebase. Includes improvements to documentation too.
Another change is, Matrix3::get_scale() will now return negative scaling when the determinant of the matrix is negative. The rationale behind this is simple: when performing a polar decomposition on a basis matrix M = R.S, we have to ensure that the determinant of R is +1, such that it is a proper rotation matrix (with no reflections) which can be represented by Euler angles or a quaternion.
Also replaced the few instances of float with real_t in Matrix3 and Transform.
Furthermore, this PR fixes an issue introduced due to the API breakage in #6865. Namely Matrix3::get_euler() now only works with proper rotation matrices. As a result, the code that wants to get the rotation portion of a transform needs to use Matrix3::get_rotation() introduced in this commit, which complements Matrix3::get_scaled(), providing both parts of the polar decomposition.
Finally, it is now possible to construct a rotation matrix from Euler angles using the new constructor Matrix3::Matrix3(const Vector3 &p_euler).
