This in the scope of a duplication triggered via any type in the `Variant` realm. that is, the following: `Variant` itself, `Array` and `Dictionary`. That includes invoking `duplicate()` from scripts.
A `duplicate_deep(deep_subresources_mode)` method is added to `Variant`, `Array` and `Dictionary` (for compatibility reasons, simply adding an extra parameter was not possible). The default value for it is `RESOURCE_DEEP_DUPLICATE_NONE`, which is like calling `duplicate(true)`.
Remarks:
- The results of copying resources via those `Variant` types are exactly the same as if the copy were initiated from the `Resource` type at C++.
- In order to keep some separation between `Variant` and the higher-level animal which is `Resource`, `Variant` still contains the original code for that, so it's self-sufficient unless there's a `Resource` involved. Once the deep copy finds a `Resource` that has to be copied according to the duplication parameters, the algorithm invokes the `Resource` duplication machinery. When the stack is unwind back to a nesting level `Variant` can handle, `Variant` duplication logic keeps functioning.
While that is good from a responsibility separation standpoint, that would have a caveat: `Variant` would not be aware of the mapping between original and duplicate subresources and so wouldn't be able to keep preventing multiple duplicates.
To avoid that, this commit also introduces a wormwhole, a sharing mechanism by which `Variant` and `Resource` can collaborate in managing the lifetime of the original-to-duplicates map. The user-visible benefit is that the overduplicate prevention works as broadly as the whole `Variant` entity being copied, including all nesting levels, regardless how disconnected the data members containing resources may be across al the nesting levels. In other words, despite the aforementioned division of duties between `Variant` and `Resource` duplication logic, the duplicates map is shared among them. It's created when first finding a `Resource` and, however how deep the copy was working at that point, the map kept alive unitl the stack is unwind to the root user call, until the first step of the recursion.
Thanks to that common map of duplicates, this commit is able to fix the issue that `Resource::duplicate_for_local_scene()` used to ignore overridden duplicate logic.
print_orphan_nodes now prints the script file attached to the node.
list_orphan_nodes was created to return the same data as print_orphan_nodes in a dictionary format for users who wish to process this data differently than the print_orphan_nodes behavior.
- refactored and renamed String::_camelcase_to_underscore to String:_separate_compound_words
- refactored String::to_snake_case to work with the refactored String::_separate_compound_words
- created char_utils::is_hyphen to catch all hyphen variants in kebab-case conversion
- created String::to_kebab_case using the new String::_separate_compound_words
- created corresponding Documentation in String and StringName
- simplified both switch statements in EditorNode and ProjectDialog
- added new kebab-casing Option for Node Names in ProjectSettings
- added missing camelCase Options to Scene- and Node-Names in ProjectSettings
- simplified Mono RuntimeInterop Functions
- hooked up the ConnectionsDialog
- created additional Unit Tests
We now cache the Node*<>TreeItem* mapping in the SceneTreeEditor. This
allows us to make targeted updates to the Tree used to display the scene
tree in the editor.
Previously on almost all changes to the scene tree the editor would
rebuild the entire widget, causing a large number of deallocations an
allocations. We now carefully manipulate the Tree widget in-situ saving
a large number of these allocations.
In order to know what Nodes need to be updated we add a
editor_state_changed signal to Node, this is a TOOLS_ENABLED,
editor-only signal fired when changes to Node happen that are relevant
to editor state.
We also now make sure that when nodes are moved/renamed we don't check
expensive properties that cannot contain NodePaths. This saves a lot of
time when SceneTreeDock renames a node in a scene with a lot of
MeshInstances. This makes renaming nodes go from ~27 seconds to ~2
seconds on large scenes.
SceneTreeEditor instances will now also not do all of the potentially
expensive update work if they are invisible. This behavior is turned off
by default so it won't affect existing users. This change allows the
editor to only update SceneTreeEditors that actually in view. In
practice this means that for most changes instead of updating 6
SceneTreeEditors we only update 1 instantly, and the others only when
they become visible.
There is definitely more that could be done, but this is already a
massive improvement. In complex scenes we see an improvement of 10x,
things that used to take ~30 seconds now only take 2.
This fixes#83460
I want to thank KoBeWi, TokisanGames, a-johnston, aniel080400 for
their tireless testing. And AeioMuch for their testing and providing a
fix for the hover issue.
Adds 3D fixed timestep interpolation to the rendering server.
This does not yet include support for multimeshes or particles.
