* General proofreading for grammar and spelling
* General formatting
* Addition of appropriate literals where appropriate, i.e. `&"foo"` for `StringName` cases and `^"foo/bar"` for `NodePath` cases
JSON.parse_string() parses all numbers as floats, even if there are no decimals.
`str(JSON.parse_string('{"type": 3}').asdf)` would result in `"3.0"`, which is not a valid int.
Because of this, the demo is not working.
This leads to code that is easier to understand and runs
faster thanks to GDScript's typed instructions.
The untyped declaration warning is now enabled on all projects
where type hints were added. All projects currently run without
any untyped declration warnings.
Dodge the Creeps and Squash the Creeps demos intentionally don't
use type hints to match the documentation, where type hints haven't
been adopted yet (given its beginner focus).
- Move all demo projects that don't require Forward+/Mobile-only features
to the Compatibility rendering method. This improves performance significantly
on low-end devices and ensures visuals are identical to a web export
of the demo.
- Set deadzone on all inputs to 0.2 for better gamepad usability.
- Remove reliance on `default_env.tres` to use built-in Environment
resources in the main scene instead (which follows the preview environment
workflow).
- Remove notices pointing to GDNative or VisualScript, since both were
removed in 4.0.
- Various bug fixes and usability tweaks to 10+ demos.
* Remove unnecessary use of `self`
* Connect to signals directly over `connect("name")`
* Use `call_deferred` on callables over `call_deferred("name"))`
* Emit signals directly over `emit_signal("name"...)`
All demos were opened with Godot 4.2.1, with the mesh format
upgraded for 3D demos.
The 3D antialiasing demo now uses Extra Cull Margin on the last
object to prevent it from disappearing too early when the camera
rotates (due to its use of shader-based animation).
The signaling server protocol has been rewritten to use JSON format to
be more readable.
Lobbies now support both mesh and client/server modes (selected during
creation).
The client/server mode uses the SceneMultiplayer relay mode as
implemented in beta4.
The demo now uses an RPC for pinging, and connects to the MultiplayerAPI
instead of using the raw MultiplayerPeer.
This is required to benefit from crisp display on hiDPI monitors.
This also fixes issues related to fullscreen and input handling
when using an hiDPI display on Windows.
This makes demos render correctly on hiDPI displays,
while also demonstrating how to handle multiple resolutions.
The 3D in 2D demo now uses "3D No-Effects" for the 3D viewport,
which is faster to render. Thanks to this, 4× MSAA is now enabled
for a better result.
The background loading demo now uses mipmaps for better-looking images.
The material testers demo now samples mouse input in a
resolution-independent manner when panning.
Default clear colors were also changed in some projects for visual
consistency with the project's theme.
