Inspired by Unreal Blueprint's drag link+create list functionality. I
realize Blender has a few operators that do different parts of this job,
but they don't provide this well-polished functionality.
"Improve" is not quite the correct verbiage here because there were bugs
in the old code. The main issue is that any SceneObject with a
plPythonFileMod attached MUST have a CoordinateInterface attached,
otherwise the object would be invisible in game. Further, there were
some unreported oversights with regard to auto-generated modifiers that
have been fixed.
Recall that PFMs are added as modules to the global modules dict.
Therefore, module names must be valid Python 2.x identifiers. This is
handled well for age names, but we've been neglecting to handle it for
PFM names. So, when Blender adds ".001" as a suffix to a duplicated
object, any attached PFMs will go down in a firey dust explosion.
Generally, with the unhelpful error message: "NULL result without
error in PyObject_Call".
Version 2 of the python file node is now backed by a `bpy.types.Text`
datablock in the case of a file whose attributes are updated from a
backing file.
Implements the boilerplate code for compiling Python code in arbitrary
python versions and packing the marshalled data into Cyan's Python.pak
format. Since this is a lot of bp, a separate operator has been added
to both test the resulting mayhem and provide age creators an easy way
to export only their needed Python.
The only python that is packed currently is the age sdl hook file, if
any. In order for that part to happen, Python File nodes need to be
upgraded from having a string path to actually using the new text_id
field.
Parses and loads the PFM arguments into accessible properties, used
by numeric nodes for range, dropdown nodes for enums, etc.
Also moves PlasmaAttribDropDownListNode into its proper alphabetical
position.
This has some simple attribute nodes for example purposes. Unfortunately,
this is so far UI only. More node types need to be added, then we can
begin working on exporting.
