added gameObject.replaceMesh(meshname) - needed this for an automatically generated scene where 100's of objects would have needed logic bricks automatically added. Quicker to run replace mesh on all of them from 1 script.
the features that are needed to run the game. Compile tested with
scons, make, but not cmake, that seems to have an issue not related
to these changes. The changes include:
* GLSL support in the viewport and game engine, enable in the game
menu in textured draw mode.
* Synced and merged part of the duplicated blender and gameengine/
gameplayer drawing code.
* Further refactoring of game engine drawing code, especially mesh
storage changed a lot.
* Optimizations in game engine armatures to avoid recomputations.
* A python function to get the framerate estimate in game.
* An option take object color into account in materials.
* An option to restrict shadow casters to a lamp's layers.
* Increase from 10 to 18 texture slots for materials, lamps, word.
An extra texture slot shows up once the last slot is used.
* Memory limit for undo, not enabled by default yet because it
needs the .B.blend to be changed.
* Multiple undo for image painting.
* An offset for dupligroups, so not all objects in a group have to
be at the origin.
rayCast(to,from,dist,prop,face,xray,poly):
The face paremeter determines the orientation of the normal:
0 or omitted => hit normal is always oriented towards the ray origin (as if you casted the ray from outside)
1 => hit normal is the real face normal (only for mesh object, otherwise face has no effect)
The ray has X-Ray capability if xray parameter is 1, otherwise the first object hit (other than self object) stops the ray.
The prop and xray parameters interact as follow:
prop off, xray off: return closest hit or no hit if there is no object on the full extend of the ray.
prop off, xray on : idem.
prop on, xray off: return closest hit if it matches prop, no hit otherwise.
prop on, xray on : return closest hit matching prop or no hit if there is no object matching prop on the full extend of the ray.
if poly is 0 or omitted, returns a 3-tuple with object reference, hit point and hit normal or (None,None,None) if no hit.
if poly is 1, returns a 4-tuple with in addition a KX_PolyProxy as 4th element.
The KX_PolyProxy object holds information on the polygon hit by the ray: the index of the vertex forming the poylgon, material, etc.
Attributes (read-only):
matname: The name of polygon material, empty if no material.
material: The material of the polygon
texture: The texture name of the polygon.
matid: The material index of the polygon, use this to retrieve vertex proxy from mesh proxy
v1: vertex index of the first vertex of the polygon, use this to retrieve vertex proxy from mesh proxy
v2: vertex index of the second vertex of the polygon, use this to retrieve vertex proxy from mesh proxy
v3: vertex index of the third vertex of the polygon, use this to retrieve vertex proxy from mesh proxy
v4: vertex index of the fourth vertex of the polygon, 0 if polygon has only 3 vertex
use this to retrieve vertex proxy from mesh proxy
visible: visible state of the polygon: 1=visible, 0=invisible
collide: collide state of the polygon: 1=receives collision, 0=collision free.
Methods:
getMaterialName(): Returns the polygon material name with MA prefix
getMaterial(): Returns the polygon material
getTextureName(): Returns the polygon texture name
getMaterialIndex(): Returns the material bucket index of the polygon.
getNumVertex(): Returns the number of vertex of the polygon.
isVisible(): Returns whether the polygon is visible or not
isCollider(): Returns whether the polygon is receives collision or not
getVertexIndex(vertex): Returns the mesh vertex index of a polygon vertex
getMesh(): Returns a mesh proxy
New methods of KX_MeshProxy have been implemented to retrieve KX_PolyProxy objects:
getNumPolygons(): Returns the number of polygon in the mesh.
getPolygon(index): Gets the specified polygon from the mesh.

Previously, this behaviour was available only for sensors
that were not connected to any active state, which was
forcing the game designer to duplicate sensors in some
cases.
For example the Always sensors used to initialize the
states needed to be duplicated for each state. With this
patch, a single Always sensor with Level option enabled
will suffice to initialize all the states.
A Python controller can determine which sensor did trigger
with the new SCA_ISensor::isTriggered() function.
Notes:
- When a sensor with level option enabled is connected
to multiple controllers, only those of newly activated
states will be triggered. The controllers of already
activated states will receive no trigger, unless the
sensor internal state toggled, in which case all the
controllers are triggered as always.
- The old isPositive() function returns the internal
state of the sensor, positive or negative; the new
isTriggered() function returns 1 only for sensors
that generated an event in the current frame.
Introduction of a new Delay sensor that can be used to
generate positive and negative triggers at precise time,
expressed in number of frames.
The delay parameter defines the length of the initial
OFF period. A positive trigger is generated at the end
of this period. The duration parameter defines the
length of the ON period following the OFF period.
A negative trigger is generated at the end of the ON period.
If duration is 0, the sensor stays ON and there is no
negative trigger.
The sensor runs the OFF-ON cycle once unless the repeat
option is set: the OFF-ON cycle repeats indefinately
(or the OFF cycle if duration is 0).
The new generic SCA_ISensor::reset() Python function
can be used at any time to restart the sensor: the
current cycle is interrupted and no trigger is generated.
* bugfix for BGE python api - SetParent actuator getObject would segfault if the object was not set.
* Added utility function ConvertPythonToGameObject() that can take a GameObject, string or None and set the game object from this since it was being done in a number of places.
* allow setObject(None), since no object is valid for actuators, Python should be able to set this.
* added optional argument for getObject() so it returns the KX_GameObject rather then its name, would prefer this be default but it could break existing games.
When using states, an action like kick or throw can often switch out before finishing playing the action, and there was no way to play from the start frame the second time round. (even setting the actions current frame through python doesn't work work)
* 2 returning errors without exception set another return None instead of NULL.
* a missing check for parent relation
* BPY matrix length was incorrect in matrix.c, this change could break some scripts, however when a script expects a list of lists for a matrix, the len() function is incorrect and will give an error. This was the only thing stopping apricot game logic running in trunk.
Also added a function for GameObjects - getAxisVect(vec), multiplies the vector be the objects worldspace rotation matrix. Very useful if you want to know what the forward direction is for an object and dont want to use Blender.Mathutils which is tedious and not available in BlenderPlayer yet.
This is also needed for removing any force that existed before suspending dynamics - In the case of franky hanging, resuming dynamics when he fell would apply the velocity he had when grabbing making dropping to the ground work unpredictably.
Also note in pydocs that enable/disable rigidbody physics doesn't work with bullet yet.
* Action FrameProp was checking if the string was true, not that it contained any text.
* Added GameObject.getVisible() since there is already a getVisible
* Added GameObject.getPropertyNames() Needed in apricot so Franky can collect and throw items in the level without having the names defined elsewhere or modifying his game logic which is stored in a separate blend file.
Edited Game engine docs to note that the matrix will need to be transposed if used with Mathutils.Matrix()
Edited "Collision" button since ray-sensor also uses collision.
* OB prefix is needed when specifying the object for the Message Actuator, this is very bad since other object fields in the BGE dont need this prefix - a real fix would need do_versions to keep old files running.
* RotationMatrix was all nans if the rotation vector axis was 0,0,0, Changed so in this case just return a matrix that doesn't rotate anything,
spent some angry hours to find these issues, maybe this will save others the hassle ;)
Add a function GameLogic.expandPath() that works like Blender.sys.expandpath() and is also available in the BlenderPlayer.
Fix the game actuator in the BlenderPlayer to work like in Blender:
- try first to load the .blend from the current working directory
- if not found, try to load from the startup .blend or runtime base directory
This patch consists in new KX_GameObject::SetParent() and KX_GameObject::RemoveParent() functions to create and destroy parent relation during game. These functions are accessible through python and through a new actuator KX_ParentActuator. Function documentation in PyDoc.
The object keeps its orientation, position and scale when it is parented but will further rotate, move and scale with its parent from that point on. When the parent relation is broken, the object keeps the orientation, position and scale it had at that time.
The function has no effect if any of the X/Y/Z scale of the object or its new parent are below Epsilon.
