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.
This patch changes the audio mixer faders to use a non-linear algorithm
for volume control. The intention is to make Godot's audio faders be
more like those found in professional audio equipment and programs. It
is an exponential equation which intends to counter-act the logarithmic
nature of human hearing. The effect of this is a more usable audio mixer
with more emphasis on the values that make the most difference to the mix.
It also changes the audio level notch widget to be less static and
thus supports changing the scaling factor of the audio faders.
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.
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.
Rename user facing methods and variables as well as the corresponding
C++ methods according to the folloming changes:
* pos -> position
* rot -> rotation
* loc -> location
C++ variables are left as is.
Currently we rely on some undefined behavior when Object->cast_to() gets
called with a Null pointer. This used to work fine with GCC < 6 but
newer versions of GCC remove all codepaths in which the this pointer is
Null. However, the non-static cast_to() was supposed to be null safe.
This patch makes cast_to() Null safe and removes the now redundant Null
checks where they existed.
It is explained in this article: https://www.viva64.com/en/b/0226/
Fixes a bunch of the most spammy console errors introduced by recent refactorings:
- `AudioServerState` does not exist, this was the reference to it in the source. The surrounding code made it clear that `AudioServerLayout` was meant to be used instead.
- `StreamCSVTranslation` same here, it's the only reference. I went with `Translation` here, but I'm not 100% sure on this one.
- Some methods have been moved from `Texture` to `Image`, but the old bindings were still there.
- A few `name == ""` errors related to duplicating nodes.
I can show you the code
Pretty, with proper whitespace
Tell me, coder, now when did
You last write readable code?
I can open your eyes
Make you see your bad indent
Force you to respect the style
The core devs agreed upon
A whole new world
A new fantastic code format
A de facto standard
With some sugar
Enforced with clang-format
A whole new world
A dazzling style we all dreamed of
And when we read it through
It's crystal clear
That now we're in a whole new world of code
The other subfolders of tools/ had already been moved to either
editor/, misc/ or thirdparty/, so the hiding the editor code that
deep was no longer meaningful.
