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!
Calling localize_path will return a localized path in res:// if the
path starts with the resource file-system/folder, and will return
the unchanged absolute path otherwise.
Closes#6979 and #7161.
-Scene edit state is saved outside the scene now, to avoid changes .tscn files when nothing really changed
-Created a VariantWriter helper to unify all variant to text writing
-Moved SceneFormatText writing to VariantWriter
-Moved ConfigFile to use VariantWriter and VariantParser, added compatibility mode for old .cfg files that use engine.cfg format
All classes were reviewed apart from VisualServer for which no argument name is documented at all.
While doing this review, I found quite a few bugs that were fixed either in earlier commits or this one (mostly documentation bugs though, i.e. some arguments were listed at the wrong place).
A general speedup should be apparent, with even more peformance increase when compiling optimized.
WARNING: Tested and it seems to work, but if something breaks, please report.
-ItemList control for easier lists/thumbnails
-New file dialog, with support for thumbnails, favorites, recent places,
etc

.fscache!
-Dir dialog now sorts directories
-Fixed many bugs in stretch mode
-Fixes to camera project and unproject as consequence of the above
-added setget to script (documented in script doc)
-more fixes to collada exporter for blender
- #672 (default user:// in $HOME/.godot/app_userdata (linux/osx) and $APPDATA/Godot/app_userdata (Windows)
- #676 (draw both tiles and octants in order from top to bottom, left to right )
- #686 (unicode escape sequences work now)
- #702 (was not a bug, but a test was added to see if bodies went too far away)
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
-Begin work on Navigation Meshes (simple pathfinding for now, will improve soon)
-More doc on theme overriding
-Upgraded OpenSSL to version without bugs
-Misc bugfixes
==========
-NOTIFICATION_WM_QUIT fixed on android (seems tha way this is reported changed in newer sdk)
-WIP implementation of APK Expansion APIs for publishing games larger than 50mb in Play Store
-Feaures in the new tutorials are all present in the sourcecode
-This (hopefully) should get rid of the animation list order getting corrupted
-Improved 3D Scene Importer (Skeletons, Animations and other stuff were not being merged). Anything missing?
-In code editor, the automatic syntax checker will only use file_exists() to check preload() else it might freeze the editor too much while typing if the preload is a big resource
-Fixed bugs in PolygonPathFinder, stil pending to do a node and a demo
-fix some menus
-fixed bug in out transition curves
-detect and remove file:/// in collada
-remove multiscript for now
-remove dependencies on mouse in OS, moved to Input
-avoid fscache from screwing up (fix might make it slower, but it works)
-funcref was missing, it's there now
-made GUI Theme editor usable
-editor does not allow to export or create .pck in the same path as a project
-changed .pck format (lacked support for versioning so couldn't change it), previous was causing crashes and is now incompatible, just re-export.
-will not look for .pck files recursively, was causing unexpected behaviors
-fixed execution of Godot in paths with non unicode characters in Windows, OSX and Linux.
