Many newcomers are confused about which one to choose for animating
properties. This should help clarify the situation with regards
to AnimationPlayer versus Tween.
(cherry picked from commit 810b1341ce)
We already removed it from the online docs with #35132.
Currently it can only be "Built-In Types" (Variant types) or "Core"
(everything else), which is of limited use.
We might also want to consider dropping it from `ClassDB` altogether
in Godot 4.0.
- Document a few more properties and methods
- Add more information to many classes
- Fix lots of typos and gramar mistakes
- Use [code] tags for parameters consistently
- Use [b] and [i] tags consistently
- Put "Warning:" and "Note:" on their own line to be more visible,
and make them always bold
- Tweak formatting in code examples to be more readable
- Use double quotes consistently
- Add more links to third-party technologies
Elaborate the difference between AnimationPlayer::advance and
AnimationPlayer::seek, specifically how intermediary events are handled for
each.
From the docs it is unclear that AnimationPlayer::advance is more of a
'fast-forward', playing each event (including function calls) between the two
points.
playing speed of the animation being played.
As stated in #16550, there is no way to get the playing speed of an
animation. The `playback_speed` property is for the whole AnimationPlayer
node, and the argument passed to `play` method is another scale applied
in top of the AnimationPlayer properties.
Thus, the actual playing speed is AnimationPlayer.speed_scale *
AnimationPlayer.playback.current.speed_scale. If it is not playing, the
method returns 0.
This partially reverts commits e79456519d
and 2d07fe2920, which introduced API changes
needing more in-depth review at this stage.
Kept the removal of "get_position" binding, redundant with
"get_current_animation_position". Kept docs changes where applicable.
Also removed the obsolete "stop_all" method which does the same as "stop".
Fixes#14602.
