This includes changes to the light baking code to ensure that we don't
bake runtime lights. This code has several places it could be optimized in
the future when we have larger ages to test against.
So this is a fairly massive chunk. I tried to get our Plasma Modifiers to
match the Blender Modifier UI fairly well. In the process, I discovered
that Blender "helpfully" hides the modifier button on Empty objects. Bah.
Significant Changes:
- Hid all of the Blender Physics mess
- The Physics context is now the Plasma Object context
- Moved Plasma Object and Plasma Synchronization to the Context Formerly
Known as Physics
- Added a Plasma Modifier Panel
Here's how you create Plasma Modifiers:
- Add your PropertyGroup to properties.modifiers
- Make sure you have a pl_id naming your modifier, a category, and a label
- Implement the export() method to actually export something useful (not
goat porn, please)
- Implement your UI draw function in ui.modifiers.
- Wasn't that easy?
According to the sparse documentation, custom render engines are the most
future-proof way of customizing the internal blender panels.
Unfortunately, even then, we must do some metaprogramming hacks...
