* extract_pose_from_pose only checked one of the list items for NULL when looping over them yet its possible they are different sizes.
* game_free_pose needed to be used rather then MEM_freeN, channels would never be freed leaking memory.
* setChannel() would make a new pose that wasnt aligned with the existing pose, the lists are assumed aligned so when extracting the channels its unlikely this was ever useful.
* Added getChannel() - returns pose loc/size/quat
* Added option args for setChannel(channel, matrix) or setChannel(channel, loc, size, quat)

* cont.actuators.get("key", default) # dict like get function
* if "key" in cont.sensors: ...
Updated docs
Added missing include to Particle.c
|
|
* Removed modules Expression and CValue, neither were ever available.
* Added GameLogic.EvalExpression(exp) from the Expression module, evaluates an expression like the expression controller (not sure if this is really that useful since python is far more advanced).
* resetting the original blend file path didint work (own fault == -> =)
* Py3.x PyModule_Create didnt allow importing since it didn't add to sys.modules,
Looks like they want us to use init-tab array, but this doesn't suit us since
it needs to be setup before python is initialized.
* Documented GameLogic.globalDict

warnings mistook the blender binary for a script - argv[0], Binary lines were printed into the console sometimes causing console beeps and corrupting future console output.
Internal texts file on disk is not used it seems python warnings dont support this (even though exceptions do).
The most common cause of this is passing a float as an argument to a method that took an int.
get around this by setting __file__ in the namespace to the script name before executing the script, the file lines are not found but at least the output is not weird and confusing.
Added read only 'mode' attribute to the python controller so there is a way to tell if its executing a module or a script. Updated docs to better explain execution methods.

- Deprecation warnings for using attribute access
- Added dictionary functions to KX_GameObject and ListValue
ob.get(key, default=None)
ob.has_key(key)
ob.has_key is important since there was no way to do something like hasattr(ob, "attr") which can be replaced by ob.has_key("attr") - (both still work of course).
ob.get is just useful in many cases where you want a property if it exists but can fallback to a default.
- CListValue::FindValue was adding a reference but the ~3 places it was used were releasing the reference. added a FindValue that accepts a const char* type to avoid converting python strings to STR_String.

bug reported by blenderage on blenderartist (found other bugs too).
- "All Hat Events" didnt work.
- Multiple hats didnt work
- use a menu with direction names rather then have the user guess. disallow zero as a direction.
- Allow up to 4 hats (was 2).
- Python api was clamping the axis to 2, maximum is currently JOYAXIS_MAX - 16
- New python attributes hatValues and hatSingle, match axis functions.
- Use SDL Axis events to fill in the axis and hat array rather then filling in every axis with SDL_JoystickGetAxis for each axis event.

conversion script by Alex Frases(z0r)
- Fixed some deprecation warnings in documentation.
- Added more conversions to script.
- Added more attributes to script todo list.
- Print out name of text buffer when encountering an error in batch mode.
- Refactor: Simplified attribute map.
- Added notImplemented function to print warnings for missing conversions. References documentation.
|
|
Patch from Alex Fraser (z0r)
- All attributes in the conversion map have been checked against the docs. More ambiguities have been resolved.
- Added option to convert all text buffers in Blender.
- Updated GameTypes.py: there were inconsistencies.
The script works well (causes no errors) with 0_FPS_Template.blend and vehicle_demo.blend from the
physics-2.43-physics-testfiles pack.
Caveats:
- Conversions were checked against other deprecated attributes. I may have missed some cases where a deprecated attribute
has the same name as a non-deprecated attribute. I did catch a few though.
- As with the last version, the conversion is purely text-based and doesn't compile the code. It's easy to create a
script that would break on conversion.
Still, it should get you 90% of the way to a converted script.

Four new buttons in World settings to control frame rate:
fps: Nominal frame rate in frame per second.
Also sets the physics timestep = 1/fps
phys: Maximum number of physics timestep per game frame in case
the actual fps is less than nominal. This allows the
physics to keep up with real time even if the graphics slows
down the game.
sub: Fixed number of simulation substeps per physic timestep.
Improves the precision of the physics simulation. Useful for
fast moving objects for example.
log: Maximum number of logic steps per game frame in case the
actual fps is less than nominal. This allows the logic
system to follow the physics simulation.
Upper bound = phys
(setting the value higher than phys has no effect).
On games with heavy logic system, it is useful to set this
value to 1, to keep logic time under control.
All these values were already accessible from Python except phys:
GameLogic.getMaxPhysicsFrame():
Gets the maximum number of physics frame per render frame.
GameLogic.setMaxPhysicsFrame(phys):
Sets the maximum number of physics timestep that are executed per render frame.
Higher value allows physics to keep up with realtime even if graphics slows down the game.
Physics timestep is fixed and equal to 1/tickrate (see setLogicTicRate)
maxphysics/ticrate is the maximum delay of the renderer that physics can compensate.
phys: integer

Compound shape control
======================
1) GUI control
It is now possible to control which child shape is added to
a parent compound shape in the Physics buttons. The "Compound"
shape button becomes "Add to parent" on child objects and
determines whether the child shape is to be added to the top
parent compound shape when the game is stated.
Notes: * "Compound" is only available to top parent objects
(objects without parent).
* Nesting of compound shape is not possible: a child
object with "Add to parent" button set will be added
to the top parent compound shape, regardless of its
position in the parent-child hierarchy and even if its
immediate parent doesn't have the "Add to parent" button set.
2) runtime control
It is now possible to control the compound shape at runtime:
The SetParent actuator has a new "Compound" button that indicates
whether the object shape should be added to the compound shape
of the parent object, provided the parent has a compound shape
of course. If not, the object retain it's individual state
while parented.
Similarly, the KX_GameObject.setParent() python function has
a new compound parameter.
Notes: * When an object is dynamically added to a compound
shape, it looses temporarily all its physics capability
to the benefit of the parent: it cannot register collisions
and the characteristics of its shape are lost (ghost, sensor,
dynamic, etc.).
* Nested compound shape is not supported: if the object
being parented is already a compound shape, it is not
added to the compound parent (as if the Compound option
was not set in the actuator or the setParent function).
* To ensure compatibility with old blend files, the Blender
subversion is changed to 2.48.5 and the old blend files
are automatically converted to match the old behavior:
all children of a Compound object will have the "Add to
parent" button set automatically.
Child ghost control
===================
It is now possible to control if an object should becomes ghost
or solid when parented. This is only applicable if the object
is not added to the parent compound shape (see above).
A new "Ghost" button is available on the SetParent actuator to
that effect. Similarly the KX_GameObject.setParent() python function
has a new compound parameter.
Notes: * This option is not applicable to sensor objects: they stay
ghost all the time.
* Make sure the child object does not enter in collision with
the parent shape when the Ghost option if off and the parent is
dynamic: the collision creates a reaction force but the parent
cannot escape the child, so the force builds up and produces
eratic movements.
* The collision capability of an ordinary object (dynamic or static)
is limited when it is parented: it becomes automatically static
and can only detect dynamic and sensor objects.
* A sensor object retain its full collision capability when parented:
it can detect static and dynamic object.
Python control
==============
KX_GameObject.setParent(parent,compound,ghost):
Sets this object's parent.
Control the shape status with the optional compound and ghost parameters:
compound=1: the object shape should be added to the parent compound shape (default)
compound=0: the object should keep its individual shape.
In that case you can control if it should be ghost or not:
ghost=1 if the object should be made ghost while parented (default)
ghost=0 if the object should be solid while parented
Note: if the object type is sensor, it stays ghost regardless of ghost parameter
parent: KX_GameObject reference or string (object name w/o OB prefix)

Patch from Roger Wickes update to 2.48 sFrame, eFrame, fps.
[#18794] GE API conversion script: 2.48 -> 2.49
patch from Alex Fraser (z0r), will test further in the next few days.
---
This is text plug in and standalone script that updates Blender 2.48 Game Engine scripts to be compatible with the 2.49
API.
The script contains a mapping of attribute names to functions that do the conversion. Most of the mappings were extracted
from the documentation in GameTypes.py. Where the conversion is ambiguous, the script will not change the source except
to insert a warning as a comment. This means that the script does not completely automate the conversion process, but
will do a lot of the work.
The script still needs a fair bit of testing. Many of the mappings have not been tested and could result in broken scripts.
I'm submitting this patch now to start the review process early. I think I might need help if it is to be included in
2.49.

getScreenVect, getScreenRay)
The modules were moved in order to access the camera internal matrixes. It will make then compatible with multiple viewports in a near future.
So far the problem I found was:
1) KX_Camera doesn't store the canvas viewport
2) RAS_ICanvas methods: GetDisplayArea and GetWindowArea are affected by multiple viewports (and they shouldn't).
Test file is here: http://www.pasteall.org/blend/68

- Added notes on BGE stability and modules
- updated some examples to new api syntax
- include BGL Mathutils and Geometry modules in docs

Servo control motion actuator did not work as expected when the object
is moving on a moving platform.
This patch introduces a new Ref field in the servo motion actuator
to set a reference object for the velocity calculation.
You can set the object during the game using the actuator "reference"
attribute; use an object name or an object reference.
The servo controller takes into account the angular velocity of the
reference object to compute the relative local velocity.

controllers.
A new bookmark button is available on the controller UI.
When set, the controller is guaranteed to execute before all
other non-bookmarked controllers, provided it is scheduled
for execution.
This is useful for initialization scripts that run once at startup or
scripts that must set some prerequisite for the other controllers at
the start of each logic frame.
This feature is also available at python level with the "bookmark"
attribute. It can be changed during the game.
Note that if several script are bookmarked, their relative order of
execution is not guaranteed. Make sure they don't depend on each other.
|
|
- corrections to docs
- disallow calling controller.activate(actuator) when the controller is not active. (Raise a SystemError)
- Added 2 new attributes, CValue.name - deprecates CValue.getName(), KX_GameObject.children deprecated KX_GameObject.getChildren(), (same for getChildrenRecursive()).
|

KX_GameObject.getVelocity() would set an error but nor return an error value when an non vector argument was given.
KX_PythonSeq_Type was not initialized with PyType_Ready which could crash blender when inspecting the type.

[#18701] Issues with camera.pointInsideFrustum method
- note in docs that the projection matrix is not correct for first logic tick.
Renamed...
KX_Camera.isViewport -> KX_Camera.useViewport
KX_Lamp.quat_attenuation -> KX_Lamp.quad_attenuation
Deprecated KX_Camera.getProjectionMatrix(), KX_Camera.setProjectionMatrix() for projection_matrix attr
Added most missing docs reported by the doc-checker script
|

scene.active_camera can now be set so you can more easily set the current camera from python scripts without using an actuator.
ConvertPythonToCamera utility function to get a camera from a python string or KX_Camera type.

* FBX Bugfix, was exporting all animation curves as 'Constant' type (no docs for this so could only guess), Thanks to Sander Brandenburg for spotting this problem.
Also improved keyframe removal to work on animation curves an angle

module giving lots of references to KX_GameObject.KX_GameObject and having to write in links like L{CListValue<CListValue.CListValue>}.
Looked into ways around this but epydoc has no way to import a class without its module and the @include field is maked as 'TODO'.
Also removed the outdated 'WhatsNew' section and linked to the 2.49 release notes.
|

--- Notes from Roelf, maybe some other BGE devs could help resolve these
Here is what I have so far. I've left "TODO's" were there needs to be some more comments.
The following things also need to be resolved:
-KX_VehicleWrapper.getWheelOrientationQuaternion looks like it should return a quaternion but if I look at the code it looks like it returns a rotation matrix.
-I still need to find out what exactly KX_VehicleWrapper.getWheelRotation is. I've got the return type but I would like to add some explanation for what it actualy means (and units if any).
-BL_Shader.setNumberOfPasses ignores the parameter but from the comment in the code it looks like the parameter that is being set (it is harcoded to be =1) in setNumberOfPasses is not used. So I'm not sure if this method should be documented at all.

controller.actuators[name] and controller.sensors[name]
Made a read-only sequence type for logic brick sensors and actuators which can access single items or be used like a list or dictionary.
We could use a python dictionary or CValueList but that would be slower to create.
So you can do...
for s in controller.sensors: print s
print controller.sensors["Sensor"]
print controller.sensors[0]
sensors = list(controller.sensors)
This sequence type keeps a reference to the proxy it came from and will raise an error on access if the proxy has been removed.

not fixed but the problem is now less bad when projection painting, bilinear interpolation was rounding down.
- added gameOb.attrDict to get the internal gameObject dict.
- mesh.getVertex wasnt setting an exception.
|
|
the base controller class so python can get the sensors & actuators from any controller (not just SCA_PythonController types)
also deprecated getActuators() and getSensors() for 'sensors' and 'actuators' attributes.
an example of getting every sensor connected to an object.
all_sensors = [s for c in ob.controllers for s in c.sensors]

there was an undocumented second arg but may as well allow a single vector arg like setUV()
|

- when the attribute check function failed it didnt set an error raising a SystemError instead
- Rasterizer.getMaterialMode would never return KX_BLENDER_MULTITEX_MATERIAL
- PropertySensor value attribute checking function was always returning a fail.
- Vertex Self Shadow python script didnt update for meshes with modifiers.

sensor, dont use 'continue' because its a python keyword.
removed (ssizeobjargproc) it breaks py2.3

the time spent on logic.
This function sets the maximum number of logic frame executed per render frame.
Valid values: 1..5
This function is useful to control the amount of processing consumed by logic.
By default, up to 5 logic frames can be executed per render frame. This is fine
as long as the time spent on logic is negligible compared to the render time.
If it's not the case, the default value will drag the performance of the game
down by executing unnecessary logic frames that take up most of the CPU time.
You can avoid that by lowering the value with this function.
The drawback is less precision in the logic system to physics and I/O activity.
Note that it does not affect the physics system: physics will still run
at full frame rate (actually up to 5 times the ticrate).
You can further control the render frame rate with GameLogic.setLogicTicRate().

the release, not for my own builds.
Setting the SDL video driver to dummy prevents the crash, this is recommended in the SDL docs if your not using the video driver.
|

Own bug, conversion function to get an orientation from python - PyOrientationTo() ignored user input completely :| (breaking the orientation attribute)
Also made KX_GameObject worldOrientation writable and minor doc fixes.
|
|
- print CListValue errors only once.
- bge_api_validate_py.txt now validates modules as well as types.
- added missing functions and consts for epydoc modules. some of these in GameLogic.py still need sorting.

getScreenVect, getScreenRay)
getScreenPosition(obj):
- Gets the position of an object projected on screen space.
getScreenVect(x, y):
- Gets the vector from the camera position in the screen coordinate direction.
getScreenRay(x, y, dist, property):
- Look towards a screen coordinate (x,y) and find first object hit within dist that matches prop.
- The ray is a call to KX_GameObject->rayCastTo from the KX_Camera object.
Patch [#18589] test files can be found there. Patch reviewed by Campbell

- initialize pythons sys.argv in the blenderplayer
- ignore all arguments after a single " - " in the blenderplayer (like in blender), so args can be passed to the game.
- add a utility function PyOrientationTo() - to take a Py euler, quat or 3x3 matrix and convert into a C++ MT_Matrix3x3.
- add utility function ConvertPythonToMesh to get a RAS_MeshObject from a KX_MeshProxy or a name.
- Added error prefix arguments to ConvertPythonToGameObject, ConvertPythonToMesh and PyOrientationTo so the error messages can include what function they came from.
- deprecated brick.getOwner() for the "owner" attribute.
|
|
- no source code since this is only useful if the epydocs contain code, ours are only docstrings.
- set inheritance to included so you dont have to search up the classes to find available functions.
- SConstruct, isolate the exception for importing epydoc.
- Added a print to the SConscript files otherwise it looks like nothings happening.
|
|
* properly detect if epydoc is installed.

script system. Added localOrientation and worldOrientation. orientation attribute deprecated. Same for position and scaling. World attributes are read-only except for worldPosition. Add systematic check on NULL SGNode in all python functions. This is necessary to handle zombie objects (deleted by the game but kept alive by a reference in a list).
|
|
- fix for multiple viewpors broke single viewport (both work now)
- python could get uninitialized values from m_prevTargetPoint and m_prevSourcePoint
- getting the RayDirection for python could crash blender trying to normalize a zero length vector.
- added python attributes
- removed unused canvas from the MouseFocusSensor class

(zombie objects) by raising a RuntimeError when accessing methods, attributes or passing to a function.
Common cases of this are when python references an object from the AddObject actuator that has ended, or a scene has been loaded and the old objects freed.
This means some scripts will raise errors now in certain cases but better give the error early rather then failing silently with strange hard to track down behavior & crashes.
Added "isValid" attribute for checking objects are in a scene.
At the moment it uses the SceneGraph Node to check of the objects valid but it might be better to do this in a more generic way so scenes, meshes etc also have this check.
|
|
Clamp objects min/max velocity.
Accessed with bullet physics from the advanced button with dynamic and rigid body objects.
- useful for preventing unstable physics in cases where objects move too fast.
- can add linear velocity with the motion actuator to give smooth motion transitions, without moving too fast.
- minimum velocity means objects don't stop moving.
- python scripts can adjust these values speedup or throttle velocity in the existing direction.
Also made copy properties from an object with no properties work (in case you want to clear all props)
|
|
Added occlusion culling capability in the BGE.
More info: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Ref/Release_Notes/2.49/Game_Engine#BGE_Scenegraph_improvement
MSVC, scons, cmake, Makefile updated.
Other minor performance improvements:
- The rasterizer was computing the openGL model matrix of the objects too many times
- DBVT view frustrum culling was not properly culling behind the near plane:
Large objects behind the camera were sent to the GPU
- Remove all references to mesh split/join feature as it is not yet functional
