Migration notes: godot-adapt-mobile-to-desktop

Incremental upgrade for topics this skill covers. Apply one hop, stabilize/test, then next. Never skip hops.

If the project is < 4.0, follow godot-version-migration era bridges (legacy → 3→4) until 4.0, then these hops. Official 3→4: Upgrading from Godot 3 to Godot 4.

4.0 → 4.1

Official: Upgrading to Godot 4.1

No skill-relevant breaking changes for this hop.

4.1 → 4.2

Official: Upgrading to Godot 4.2

• Mesh compression upgrade particularly affects mobile bandwidth — plan mesh upgrade dialog carefully.

4.2 → 4.3

Official: Upgrading to Godot 4.3

• Android permissions are not auto-requested — use OS.request_permission + MainLoop.on_request_permissions_result.

4.3 → 4.4

Official: Upgrading to Godot 4.4

• Android sensors off by default for exports that relied on them.

4.4 → 4.5

Official: Upgrading to Godot 4.5

• C# Android export requires .NET 9 (other platforms still .NET 8+).
• EditorExportPlatform.get_forced_export_files gains optional preset.
• add_property_info validates keys more loudly.

4.5 → 4.6

Official: Upgrading to Godot 4.6

• Mobile renderer glow rewrite looks different — retune Environment.
• Android export template source layout matches Android Studio (src/main/java/...) — update custom Java patches.
• EditorExportPreset.get_script_export_mode returns enum type.
• New project defaults: D3D12 on Windows; Jolt for 3D physics — document for templates.
• MeshInstance3D.skeleton default is empty NodePath — enable compatibility setting if old parent-skeleton behavior needed.

4.6 → 4.7

Official: Upgrading to Godot 4.7

• Prefer built-in virtual joystick over third-party touch plugins where possible.
• Asset Library workflow → Asset Store in editor — update docs/tooling that pointed at old Asset Library UX.
• EditorSceneFormatImporter import constants live under ImportFlags enum.
• New project stretch defaults canvas_items + expand.
• Sky reflection roughness_layers default restored toward 8.
