Migration notes: godot-characterbody-2d

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

• Area2D.priority type is int (was float) — only affects custom-gravity / conveyor Area setups paired with CharacterBody controllers.
• Viewports with physics picking enabled auto-mark InputEvents handled — adjust drop-through or click-to-move patterns if you relied on unhandled propagation through a physics viewport.
• PathFollow2D.lookahead removed — update moving-platform path followers that CharacterBodies ride.

4.1 → 4.2

Official: Upgrading to Godot 4.2

No skill-relevant breaking changes for this hop.

4.2 → 4.3

Official: Upgrading to Godot 4.3

No skill-relevant breaking changes for this hop.

4.3 → 4.4

Official: Upgrading to Godot 4.4

• Android motion sensors disabled by default — enable Project Settings → Input Devices → Sensors before mobile tilt/virtual-stick controllers drive CharacterBody input.

4.4 → 4.5

Official: Upgrading to Godot 4.5

No skill-relevant breaking changes for this hop.

4.5 → 4.6

Official: Upgrading to Godot 4.6

No skill-relevant breaking changes for this hop.

4.6 → 4.7

Official: Upgrading to Godot 4.7

• PhysicsServer2D.body_set_shape_as_one_way_collision() direction is shape-relative — re-tune one-way platform drop-through; align platform collider rotation or pass explicit direction instead of assuming global up.
• CollisionShape2D one-way collision direction follows shape orientation — verify tile and StaticBody one-ways still match movement normals after upgrade.
• Mouse/keyboard device IDs are InputEvent.DEVICE_ID_MOUSE / InputEvent.DEVICE_ID_KEYBOARD (not 0) — update device-filtered input routing in controllers; joypads may legitimately use ID 0.
