This one allows for complex shaders paired with a simple lighting shader to skip code that would otherwise be pointlessly (and wastefully) run during the light pass.
Depending on your game (number of items and lights), this can yield some performance gain.
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
- Add FIXME tags comments to some unfixed potential bugs
- Remove some checks (always false: unsigned never < 0)
- Fix some if statements based on reviews.
- Bunch of missing `else` statements
-Changed SectionedPropertyEditor to support this
-Renamed Globals singleton to GlobalConfig, makes more sense.
-Changed the logic behind persisten global settings, instead of the persist checkbox, a revert button is now available
This reverts commit 753ba67d65,
in preparation from the merge of the gles3 branch, as the VisualServer
code changed too much to port this commit over during merge conflicts
resolution. It could be readded afterwards.
That year should bring the long-awaited OpenGL ES 3.0 compatible renderer
with state-of-the-art rendering techniques tuned to work as low as middle
end handheld devices - without compromising with the possibilities given
for higher end desktop games of course. Great times ahead for the Godot
community and the gamers that will play our games!
-Most 2D drawing is implemented
-Missing shaders
-Missing all 3D
-Editor needs to be set on update always to be used, otherwise it does not refresh
-Large parts of editor not working
-Added anti-aliasing on lines
-Improved draw performance enormously
-Removed sequence ports for most nodes, current visual scripts will likely be broken now. Sorry!
-Rearrange favorites in fs dock with drag and drop
-Removed import -> sub-scene, moved to scenetree contextual menu
-Removed import -> re-import , moved and integrated to FS dock
-Added ability in FS dock to re-import more than one resource
simultaneously
-Added ability to drag from native filesystem explorer to Godot, only
works on Windows though
-Removed scene reimport merge options, never worked well. Eventually
merging materials should be re-added
-Added ability to set custom root node type when importing scenes
-Re-Import is now automatic, can be configured back to manual in editor
settings
-Added resource previews in property list for many resource types
-Visible 2D and 3D Shapes, Polygons, Tile collisions, etc.

*DANGER* Shaders in CanvasItem CHANGED, if you are using shader in a
CanvasItem and pull this, you will lose them. Shaders now work through a
2D material system similar to 3D. If you don't want to lose the 2D
shader code, save the shader as a .shd, then create a material in
CanvasItem and re-assign the shader.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
