Changes the Path2D drawing to use POLYLINE instead of thick lines.
Add a path to translate thick lines (that are not using anti-aliasing) to draw as polygons instead. This should be faster because polygons can be batched.
More work is needed to make sure that those options actually solve users' issues, so we prefer to remove the options for 3.2.4 and revisit for a future release.
Two common problems have emerged as a result of transform snapping:
1) Camera jitter with a camera following a snapped object
2) Pixel gaps between e.g. a platform and a player, where a platform rounds down and a player rounds up
Using round seems to greatly reduce problems due to camera jitter. It also may prove better for pixel gaps because pixel art is often designed on a grid, so whole numbers are too expected, which are unstable with floor().
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)
Keeps track of the order in which items are collected by
_collect_ysort_children, and uses that order to break
ties between items with similar Y positions.
(cherry picked from commit 8d3afa985b)
As the masked light list takes no account of layer_min and layer_max, the canvas_layed_id is passed to the _light_mask_canvas_items function where it can be used to reject lights outside the layer range.
Extra functions canvas_render_items_begin and canvas_render_items_end are added to RasterizerCanvas, with noop stubs for non-GLES2 renderers. This enables batching to be spready over multiple z_indices, and multiple calls to canvas_render_items.
It does this by only performing item joining within canvas_render_items, and deferring rendering until canvas_render_items_end().
Some cases were not handled properly for Polygon2D after making changes in common code to fix Line2D antialiasing. Added an option for drawing polygons to differentiate the two use cases.
Fixes#34568
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.
Polygon2D:
The property wasn't used anymore after switching from canvas_item_add_polygon() to canvas_item_add_triangle_array() for drawing.
Line2D:
Added the same property as for Polygon2D & fixed smooth line drawing to use indices correctly.
Fixes#26823
Remove animation loop from ParticlesMaterial and move it to
SpatialMaterial for 3D particles and Particles2D for the 2D case.
Added animation to CPUParticles2D as well as the "Convert to
CPUParticles2D" to the PAarticles2D menu.
This commit makes operator[] on Vector const and adds a write proxy to it. From
now on writes to Vectors need to happen through the .write proxy. So for
instance:
Vector<int> vec;
vec.push_back(10);
std::cout << vec[0] << std::endl;
vec.write[0] = 20;
Failing to use the .write proxy will cause a compilation error.
In addition COWable datatypes can now embed a CowData pointer to their data.
This means that String, CharString, and VMap no longer use or derive from
Vector.
_ALWAYS_INLINE_ and _FORCE_INLINE_ are now equivalent for debug and non-debug
builds. This is a lot faster for Vector in the editor and while running tests.
The reason why this difference used to exist is because force-inlined methods
used to give a bad debugging experience. After extensive testing with modern
compilers this is no longer the case.
