tutorials/migrating/upgrading_to_godot_4.4

For most games and apps made with 4.3 it should be relatively safe to migrate to 4.4. This page intends to cover everything you need to pay attention to when migrating your project. Breaking change...

after the upgrade my calls to "NavigationServer3D.MapGetClosestPointNormal" returns a inverted normal compared to 4.3

It looks like String.num(1) returns "1.0" now, and in 4.3 it would return "1". To convert integers without seeing the decimal places, I had to either use String.num(1, 0) or String.num_int64(1).

In class "RenderSceneBuffersRD", the function "create_texture" now requires a new mandatory argument called "discardable". I don't know what it does, but setting it to true made things run the same as in 4.3

Tooltips, context menus, and other pop up windows like project settings and create new node are blank after updating to 4.4 on M1 Pro Mac Sequoia 15.3.1. Tooltips and context menus just show blank gray squares where the content should be, popups show a blank square with the usual window stuff like title that says "Create New Node" and close/minimize/maximize buttons.

I was trying to this morning but I couldn't get a min reproducible project. Tried making a new project in 4.4 and it was fine, tried making one in 4.3 and importing it to 4.4 and it also worked fine. Seems like it might be related to my project. One of my addons maybe.

Also on M1 Pro Mac Sequoia 15.3.1, editor is generally unresponsive. Can't click tabs to change scenes, can't select a different node in the current scene, can't select files in the filesystem, etc.

Typical macOS problem. I find this to occur in MANY applications, where the mouse hover states straight up don't work sometimes. Only solution is to click somewhere on the desktop to lose focus, then click back in the application you want to work.
