Surprising this wasn't noticed before. Any mix of quads/tris caused the face verts of either quads/tries (whichever comes last).
Tested by exporting the KX_MeshProxy and re-importing as an OBJ.
This fix assumes there are only 2 m_darray's per face array which is currently true, but wont be if edge support is added back.
Previously the only way to detect if the mouse moved over a different object was to enable true-level-triggering and have a python script detect the change.
When the Pulse option is set, focusing on a different object pulses true.
Python attribute is focusSensor.usePulseFocus.
This is similar to the collision sensors pulse option where changes in the set of collision objects generates an event too.
Found this functionality missing when trying to make a logic demo that used mouse-over with overlapping objects.
2.49a tries to remove the object from the conversion list every time. Now remove from the conversion list directly without being apart of the remove object function.
When the mesh field is left blank and Physics option is enabled, it reinstances the physics mesh from the existing mesh.
like calling gameOb.reinstancePhysicsMesh() from python.
Add support back for reinstancePhysics mesh, a frequently requested feature in the BGE forums.
from what I can tell Sumo supported this but bullet never did.
Currently only accessible via python at the moment.
- rigid body, dynamic, static types work.
- instanced physics meshes are modified too.
- compound shapes are not supported.
Physics mesh can be re-instanced from...
* shape keys & armature deformations
* subsurf (any other modifiers too)
* RAS_TexVert's (can be modified from python)
Moved the reinstancePhysicsMesh functions from RAS_MeshObject into KX_GameObject since the physics data is stored here.

De-activating a loop-end actuator didnt work (it kept looping).
Looked into this further and it turns out that the actuators run with both positive and negative events false, the sound actuator assumes because its not negative that its a positive event and plays the sound anyway.
Fix by checking that its a positive event before playing.
The size limit on the message actuator was 100 which broke some scripts, set to 16384 instead.
while making a demo of using python to control bones found some more problems.
also added channelNames attribute to BL_ActionActuator to get a list of valid channels to use.
demo: http://www.graphicall.org/ftp/ideasman42/armature_python.blend
its still not that useful since theres not way to know rest bone locations yet but better then nothing.
* extract_pose_from_pose only checked one of the list items for NULL when looping over them yet its possible they are different sizes.
* game_free_pose needed to be used rather then MEM_freeN, channels would never be freed leaking memory.
* setChannel() would make a new pose that wasnt aligned with the existing pose, the lists are assumed aligned so when extracting the channels its unlikely this was ever useful.
* Added getChannel() - returns pose loc/size/quat
* Added option args for setChannel(channel, matrix) or setChannel(channel, loc, size, quat)
* Removed modules Expression and CValue, neither were ever available.
* Added GameLogic.EvalExpression(exp) from the Expression module, evaluates an expression like the expression controller (not sure if this is really that useful since python is far more advanced).
* resetting the original blend file path didint work (own fault == -> =)
* Py3.x PyModule_Create didnt allow importing since it didn't add to sys.modules,
Looks like they want us to use init-tab array, but this doesn't suit us since
it needs to be setup before python is initialized.
* Documented GameLogic.globalDict
Example is a cube that lands on a plane, sleeps after some time, a script changes the scale.
It would still use the scale when the object first went to sleep.

- fix for [#18867] getScreenRay error
... the Vector wasn't been added to KX_Camera origin. Therefore the Ray was always casted to the wrong coordinate when camera wasn't in [0,0,0] (where is obviously was in my tests :)
- making the input parameter compatible with Blender/BGE window coordinate system (Top-Bottom).
... that will break scripts done in 2.49. Since this feature was added only in 2.49 that fix is OK. (and the fix is ridiculous.
Note:
the input parameter is normalized. That means it runs from 0.0 to 1.0. Some users found it confusing, but it allows to make a game compatible with multiple desktop resolutions.a
- script template use new property syntax
- Python could set the axis/hat to a negative index and crash blender (nobody complained)
- Servo control UI had overlapping text
- CValue warning ShowDeprecationWarning("val = ob.attr", "val = ob['attr']"); had false positives because of python using getattr() internally. Only show the wanring now when a CValue is found.
- Py functions that accepted a vector and a GameObject were slowed down by PySequence_Check() first called on the GameObject, though this would fail it would try and get attributes from the game object - ending up in ~8 attribute lookups each time. Avoiding PySequence_Check() makes ob.getDistanceTo(otherOb) over twice as fast.
- Joystick hat events could crash the BGE for joysticks with more then 4 hats.
- PLY Import failed on PLY files from Carve, added some extra types.
