* Undoing the previous applyMovement() changes for characters. This was causing bugs for the Motion Actuator.
* Creating a Character Motion type for the Motion Actuator with specific controls for characters. This includes moving, rotating and jumping.
* Adding a KX_CharacterWrapper.walkDirection to set the character's direction and speed.
Note, this also resolves the following bugs:
[#33585] "Setting dLoc of motion actuator [0,0,0] via python won't stop object" reported by Manuel Bellersen (urfoex)
[#33503] "Character physics type won´t accept more than one motion anymore" reported by Mr Larodos
You can see a screenshot of the funcionality here:

This patch creates a bar-like graph to quickly allow the game dev to see the performance changes.
Also it changes the font to monospace (too allow ' ' padding) and reduced shadow border to
match the blenderplayer one.
Patch finalized and commited at Global Game Jam Vancouver (last one, time to sleep forever now)
On a scene change the SCA_JoystickManager gets destroyed which in turn means all of it's joystick instances are released. Since SCA_PythonJoystick was just using a borrowed reference, this allowed the joystick to be freed. Now the joystick's refcount is incremented so that the SCA_PythonJoystick's joystick reference will survive across scene changes.
Note: this doesn't work yet for everything with latest stable bullet (2.81), need to look into why and likely apply some patches upstream.
However I managed to link blender by disabling some features, likely it can be made to work without too much trouble.
This commit adds a UI option in the Render properties to enable the new material caching in the converter. This caching can cause problems with Singletexture and Multitexture materials when texface is being used to handle materials. By default this option is enabled and users with broken games have two options:
1) Fix up their materials so they are properly using textures
2) Disable the material caching and take a speed hit during conversion time
Regardless of the setting, caching is always enabled for GLSL materials.
# Print a message when an async LibLoad is done
import bge
def finished_cb(status):
print("Library (%s) loaded in %.2fms." % (status.libraryName, status.timeTaken))
bge.logic.LibLoad('myblend.blend', 'Scene', async=True).onFinish = finished_cb
LibLoad() now returns a KX_LibLoadStatus object for information on the library loading. LibNew() and LibFree() are unaffected by this commit. In other words, the async option only works for LibLoad(). Furthermore it only works for Scenes, not Actions or Meshes.

etc..
The interface exposed by SCA_PythonJoystick is very similar to the joystick logic brick except for one key difference: axis values are normalized to a -1.0 to 1.0 range instead of -32767 to 32767, which is what the logic brick exposed.
* Cleaning up the conversion code to avoid a per-face material conversion. Materials are now stored in buckets and only converted if a new material is found. This replaces some of Campbell's earlier work on the subject. His work wasn't as thorough, but it was much safer for a release.
* Shaders are only compiled for LibLoaded materials once. Before they could be compiled twice, which could really slow things down.
* Refactoring the rasterizer code to use a strategy design pattern to handle different geometry rendering methods such as immediate mode, vertex arrays and vertex buffer objects. VBOs are added, but they will be disabled in a following commit since they are still slower than vertex arrays with display lists. However, VBOs are still useful for mobile, so it's good to keep them around.
* Better multi-uv support. The BGE should now be able to handle more than two UV layers, which should help it better match the viewport.
- PyLong_FromSsize_t --> PyLong_FromLong
- PyLong_AsSsize_t --> PyLong_AsLong
In all places except for those where python api expects PySsize_t (index lookups mainly).
- use PyBool_FromLong in a few areas of the BGE.
- fix incorrect assumption in the BGE that PySequence_Check() means PySequence_Fast_ functions can be used.
This commit makes BKE_image_acquire_ibuf referencing result, which means once
some area requested for image buffer, it'll be guaranteed this buffer wouldn't
be freed by image signal.
To de-reference buffer BKE_image_release_ibuf should now always be used.
To make referencing working correct we can not rely on result of
image_get_ibuf_threadsafe called outside from thread lock. This is so because
we need to guarantee getting image buffer from list of loaded buffers and it's
referencing happens atomic. Without lock here it is possible that between call
of image_get_ibuf_threadsafe and referencing the buffer IMA_SIGNAL_FREE would
be called. Image signal handling too is blocking now to prevent such a
situation.
Threads are locking by spinlock, which are faster than mutexes. There were some
slowdown reports in the past about render slowdown when using OSX on Xeon CPU.
It shouldn't happen with spin locks, but more tests on different hardware would
be really welcome. So far can not see speed regressions on own computers.
This commit also removes BKE_image_get_ibuf, because it was not so intuitive
when get_ibuf and acquire_ibuf should be used.
Thanks to Ton and Brecht for discussion/review :)
