Implement adjusting the maximum number of physics steps per rendered frame
2022-10-09Implement adjusting the maximum number of physics steps per rendered frameHugo Locurcio
When using high physics FPS (which is a requirement to minimize input lag and improve precision in simulation racing games), a higher value prevents the game from slowing down at low rendering FPS. This can be done via an Engine property for run-time changes, or a project setting for initial changes.

2022-10-03Rename `Engine.target_fps` and associated project setting to `max_fps`Hugo Locurcio
This makes the setting easier to find, as research has found there are numerous use cases to limiting FPS. This also improves documentation related to the Engine property and project setting. The project setting also works in projects exported in release mode, so its location in the `debug/` section was misleading.

2022-08-08Print expected `os.arch` tuple for current platform in GDExtension errorHugo Locurcio
This also adds `Engine.get_architecture_name()` to get the name of the CPU architecture the Godot binary was built for.
2022-07-27Add a Movie Quit On Finish property to AnimationPlayerHugo Locurcio
This quits the project when an animation is done playing in the given AnimationPlayer, but only in Movie Maker mode. When this happens, a message is printed with the absolute path of the AnimationPlayer node that caused the engine to quit. This can be used to create videos that stop at a specified time without having to write any script. A report is now also printed to the console when the video is done recording (as long as the engine was exited properly). This report is unfortunately not always visible in the editor's Output panel, as it's printed too late. A method was also added to get the path to the output file from the scripting API.
2022-03-27Add GDExtension support to Scriptreduz
* Ability to create script languages from GDExtension * Some additions to gdnative_extension.h to make this happen * Moved the GDExtension binder to core This now allows creating scripting languages from GDExtension, with the same ease as if it was a module. It replaces the old PluginScript from Godot 3.x. Warning: GodotCPP will need to be updated to support this (it may be a bit of work as ScriptInstance needs to be created over there again).
2022-02-15Add an XML schema for documentationHugo Locurcio
This makes it easier to spot syntax errors when editing the class reference. The schema is referenced locally so validation can still work offline. Each class XML's schema conformance is also checked on GitHub Actions.

2021-09-20Remove `Engine.editor_hint` in favor of `Engine.is_editor_hint()`Hugo Locurcio
The `Engine.set_editor_hint()` setter method is no longer exposed to scripting, which makes the property effectively read-only from an user perspective.
2021-09-12Improve documentation for `Engine.get_process_frames/get_physics_frames()`Hugo Locurcio
2021-08-25Add ability to register singletons from engine APIreduz
* Exposed functions in Engine to register and unregister singletons. * Added the concept of user singletons, which can be removed (the system ones can't).
2021-08-11Rename `iterations_per_second` to `physics_ticks_per_second`Hugo Locurcio
This makes it clearer that this property is only about physics FPS, not rendering FPS. The `physics_fps` project setting was also renamed to `physics_ticks_per_second` for consistency.
2021-07-30doc: Use self-closing tags for `return` and `argument`Rémi Verschelde
For the time being we don't support writing a description for those, preferring having all details in the method's description. Using self-closing tags saves half the lines, and prevents contributors from thinking that they should write the argument or return documentation there.
2021-07-23Fix doc typosNicholas Huelin
This pull request fixes an assortment of typos and improves conciseness in `Animation`, `Area2D`, `Array`, `ArrayMesh`, `Control`, `Directory`, `EditorPlugin`, `Engine`, and `OS`.

2021-06-08Tweak the physics FPS property hint to only allow reasonable valuesHugo Locurcio
Physics FPS above 1000 cause the whole project to slow down and are not very practical in the first place (since no CPU currently available can keep up).
2021-05-01Add `Engine.print_error_messages` property to disable printing errorsHugo Locurcio
This can be used during unit test suite runs to hide error and warning messages. Care should be taken when using this feature, as it can hide important information if used wrongly.

2020-01-26doc: Drop unused 'category' property from headerRémi Verschelde
We already removed it from the online docs with #35132. Currently it can only be "Built-In Types" (Variant types) or "Core" (everything else), which is of limited use. We might also want to consider dropping it from `ClassDB` altogether in Godot 4.0.

Addresses #30068 This is a prerequisite for allowing proper support for fixed timestep interpolation, exposing the interpolation fraction to the engine, modules and gdscript. The interpolation fraction is the fraction through the current physics tick at the time of the current frame.
