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)
Fixed FileSystemDock's `file_removed` and `folder_removed` signals not being
emitted because the emitted was using the wrong signal name.
(cherry picked from commit fe0b783e70)
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.
get_selected_path returns only the resource directory.
get_current_path fulfils the need to get the full path.
This does not break backward compatibility and the function (get_current_path)
is already available in FileSystemDock just like get_selected_path.
Fixes 30652.
ptrcall assumes methods that return a Reference type do so with Ref<T>. Returning Reference* from a method exposed to the scripting API completely breaks ptrcalls to this method (it can be quite hard to debug!).
- From now materials assigned to the MeshInstance (not the Mesh) get exported
into the MeshLibrary when such materials exist. This enables workflows where
the MeshLibrary is exported from an imported scene (e.g. GLTF) where the
materials assigned to the Mesh (not the MeshInstance) get overwritten on
re-import, thus can't use editor set materials in the exported MeshLibrary
unless they are assigned to the MeshInstance whose materials get saved with
the inherited scene thus persist across re-imports.
- When appending to an existing MeshLibrary only generate previews for newly
added or modified meshes.
- During preview generation transform camera and lights instead of the mesh
and use the source MeshInstance's transform for the mesh to avoid weird
previews being generated for meshes with a position dependent material
(e.g. when using triplanar mapping).
- Adjust the camera angle and light directions used in mesh preview generation
for better results.
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.
- Now it is usable from both `CanvasItem` and `Spatial` editors.
- `EditorPlugin` API changes:
- `forward_draw_over_canvas()` becomes `forward_draw_over_viewport()`.
- `update_canvas()` becomes `update_overlays()`, which now triggers the update of every overlay on top of any 2D or 3D viewports present. Also now it returns the number of such viewports, which is useful whenever you need to know the number of draw-over calls you'll get.
- New: `[set/is]_force_draw_over_forwarding_enabled()` to force overlaying regardless it handles the current object type, in a similar fashion as `[set/is]_input_event_forwarding_always_enabled`. This kind of overlay is also on top of those for regular handled node types.
- New: `forward_force_draw_over_canvas()`, which is the callback that gets called for plugins that enable forced overlaying.
