This adds the ability for games to obtain platform-specific information about joypads such as their vendor/product ID, their XInput gamepad index or the real name of the device before it gets swapped out by the gamecontrollerdb's name.
This PR also includes a rebased version of #76045, this is because this PR is intended to be mainly to help people implementing Steam Input, as having the gamepad index is essential.
During GDC and general testing on Steam Deck units, we found that single
gamepads would often register inputs twice under certain circumstances.
This was caused by SteamInput creating a new virtual device, which Godot
registers as a second gamepad. This resulted in two gamepad devices
reporting the same button presses, often leading to buggy input response
on games with no multi-device logic and other-wise could cause intended
Steam rebindings to not work as intended (for example, swapping o and x
on a playstation pad if that feature isn't supported by the game.)
SDL gets around this by taking in a list of devices that are to be
ignored. When valve sees a controller that wants to be rebound via
SteamInput, they push a new VID/PID entry onto the environment
variable `SDL_GAMECONTROLLER_IGNORE_DEVICES` for the original gamepad
so that all game inputs can be read from the virtual gamepad instead.
This leverages the same logic as we are already using SDL gamepad
related HID mappings.
Previously if an action was both pressed and released on the same tick or frame, `is_action_just_pressed()` would return false, resulting in missed input.
This PR separately the timestamp for pressing and releasing so each can be tested independently.
- Unify keycode values (secondary label printed on a key), remove unused hardcoded Latin-1 codes.
- Unify IME behaviour, add inline composition string display on Windows and X11.
- Add key_label (localized label printed on a key) value to the key events, and allow mapping actions to the unshifted Unicode events.
- Add support for physical keyboard (Bluetooth or Sidecar) handling on iOS.
- Add support for media key handling on macOS.

* All core types masks are now correctly marked as bitfields.
* The enum hacks in MouseButtonMask and many other types are gone. This ensures that binders to other languages non C++ can actually implement type safe bitmasks.
* Most bitmask operations replaced by functions in BitField<>
* Key is still a problem because its enum and mask at the same time. While it kind of works in C++, this most likely can't be implemented safely in other languages and will have to be changed at some point. Mostly left as-is.
* Documentation and API dump updated to reflect bitfields in core types.
As many open source projects have started doing it, we're removing the
current year from the copyright notice, so that we don't need to bump
it every year.
It seems like only the first year of publication is technically
relevant for copyright notices, and even that seems to be something
that many companies stopped listing altogether (in a version controlled
codebase, the commits are a much better source of date of publication
than a hardcoded copyright statement).
We also now list Godot Engine contributors first as we're collectively
the current maintainers of the project, and we clarify that the
"exclusive" copyright of the co-founders covers the timespan before
opensourcing (their further contributions are included as part of Godot
Engine contributors).
Also fixed "cf." Frenchism - it's meant as "refer to / see".
* Map is unnecessary and inefficient in almost every case.
* Replaced by the new HashMap.
* Renamed Map to RBMap and Set to RBSet for cases that still make sense
(order matters) but use is discouraged.
There were very few cases where replacing by HashMap was undesired because
keeping the key order was intended.
I tried to keep those (as RBMap) as much as possible, but might have missed
some. Review appreciated!
These typedefs don't save much typing compared to the full `Ref<Resource>`
and `Ref<RefCounted>`, yet they sometimes introduce confusion among
new contributors.
Didn't commit all the changes where it wants to initialize a struct
with `{}`. Should be reviewed in a separate PR.
Option `IgnoreArrays` enabled for now to be conservative, can be
disabled to see if it proposes more useful changes.
Also fixed manually a handful of other missing initializations / moved
some from constructors.
- Uses all accumulated movements when calculating velocity
- Discards old accumulated movements
- Sets last mouse velocity to zero when there is no movement
Input buffering is implicitly used by event accumulation, but this commit makes it more generic so it can be enabled for other uses.
For desktop OSs it's currently not feasible given main and UI threads are the same).
- API has been simplified: all events now go through `parse_input_event()`. Whether they are accumulated or not depends on the `use_accumulated_input` flag.
- Event accumulation is now thread-safe (it was not needed so far, but it prepares the ground for the following changes).
- Touch drag events now support accumulation.
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 🎆
Added additional param to action related methods to test for exactness.
If "p_exact_match" is true, then the action will only be "matched" if the provided input event *exactly* matches with the action event.
Before:
* Action Event = KEY_S
* Input Event = KEY_CONTROL + KEY_S
* Is Action Pressed = True
Now:
You can still do the above, however you can optionally check that the input is exactly what the action event is:
* Action Event = KEY_S
* Input Event = KEY_CONTROL + KEY_S
* p_exact_match = True
* Is Action Pressed = False
* If the Input Event was only KEY_S, then the result would be true.
Usage:
```gdscript
Input.is_action_pressed(action_name: String, exact_match: bool)
Input.is_action_pressed("my_action", true)
InputMap.event_is_action(p_event, "my_action", true)
func _input(event: InputEvent):
event.is_action_pressed("my_action", false, true) # false = "allow_echo", true = "exact_match"
event.is_action("my_action", true)
```
