The redundant terms were harmless but check an expression we already

bge.logic.setRender(flag) to enable/disable render.
The render pass is enabled by default but it can be disabled with
bge.logic.setRender(False).
Once disabled, the render pass is skipped and a new logic frame starts
immediately. Note that VSync no longer limits the fps when render is off
but the 'Use Frame Rate' option in the Render Properties still does.
To run as many frames as possible, untick the option
This function is useful when you don't need the default render, e.g.
when doing offscreen render to an alternate device than the monitor.
Note that without VSync, you must limit the frame rate by other means.
fbo = bge.render.offScreenCreate(width,height,[,samples=0][,target=bge.render.RAS_OFS_RENDER_BUFFER])
Use this method to create an offscreen buffer of given size, with given MSAA
samples and targetting either a render buffer (bge.render.RAS_OFS_RENDER_BUFFER)
or a texture (bge.render.RAS_OFS_RENDER_TEXTURE). Use the former if you want to
retrieve the frame buffer on the host and the latter if you want to pass the render
to another context (texture are proper OGL object, render buffers aren't)
The object created by this function can only be used as a parameter of the
bge.texture.ImageRender() constructor to send the the render to the FBO rather
than to the frame buffer. This is best suited when you want to create a render
of specific size, or if you need an image with an alpha channel.
bge.texture.<imagetype>.refresh(buffer=None, format="RGBA", ts=-1.0)
Without arg, the refresh method of the image objects is pretty much a no-op, it
simply invalidates the image so that on next texture refresh, the image will
be recalculated.
It is now possible to pass an optional buffer object to transfer the image (and
recalculate it if it was invalid) to an external object. The object must implement
the 'buffer protocol'. The image will be transfered as "RGBA" or "BGRA" pixels
depending on format argument (only those 2 formats are supported) and ts is an
optional timestamp in the image depends on it (e.g. VideoFFmpeg playing a video file).
With this function you don't need anymore to link the image object to a Texture
object to use: the image object is self-sufficient.
bge.texture.ImageRender(scene, camera, fbo=None)
Render to buffer is possible by passing a FBO object (see offScreenCreate).
bge.texture.ImageRender.render()
Allows asynchronous render: call this method to render the scene but without
extracting the pixels yet. The function returns as soon as the render commands
have been send to the GPU. The render will proceed asynchronously in the GPU
while the host can perform other tasks.
To complete the render, you can either call refresh() directly of refresh the texture
to which this object is the source. Asynchronous render is useful to achieve optimal
performance: call render() on frame N and refresh() on frame N+1 to give as much as
time as possible to the GPU to render the frame while the game engine can perform other tasks.
Support negative scale on camera.
Camera scale was previously ignored in the BGE.
It is now injected in the modelview matrix as a vertical or horizontal flip
of the scene (respectively if scaleY<0 and scaleX<0).
Note that the actual value of the scale is not used, only the sign.
This allows to flip the image produced by ImageRender() without any performance
degradation: the flip is integrated in the render itself.
Optimized image transfer from ImageRender to buffer.
Previously, images that were transferred to the host were always going through
buffers in VideoTexture. It is now possible to transfer ImageRender
images to external buffer without intermediate copy (i.e. directly from OGL to buffer)
if the attributes of the ImageRender objects are set as follow:
flip=False, alpha=True, scale=False, depth=False, zbuff=False.
(if you need to flip the image, use camera negative scale)
Previously the logic manager was used as a global variable for SCA_ILogicBrick::m_sCurrentLogicManager,
this request to always update it before run any python script and allow call function like
ConvertPythonTo[GameObject/Mesh]. The bug showed in T48071 is that as exepted the global
m_sCurrentLogicManager is not updated with the proper scene logic manager.
Instead of trying to fix it by updating the logic manager everywhere and wait next bug report to add
a similar line. The following patch propose a different way:
- Every logic brick now contain its logic manager to SCA_ILogicBrick::m_logicManager, this value is
set and get by SCA_ILogicBrick::[Set/Get]LogicManager, It's initialized from blender conversion and
scene merging.
- Function ConvertPythonTo[GameObject/mesh] now take as first argument the logic manager to find name
coresponding object or mesh. Only ConvertPythonToCamera doesn't do that because it uses the
KX_Scene::FindCamera function.

Use float in moto instead of double for MT_Scalar.
This switch allow future optimization like SSE.
Additionally, it changes the OpenGL calls to float versions as they are
very bad with doubles.

It fix T46381. Normally BL_Action::Update (manage action time, end, loop…) should be called the same number of times as BL_Action::UpdateIPO (update action position, scale ect… in the game object).

Making the reference argument optional for the addObject function.
```
scene.addObject("Cube")
```
This allows to keep the rotation, scale and position of the original object.
To avoid layer problems with lights if the reference arguments is None, the new object have the same layer than the active layers in scene.

This callback allows the user to change the camera data right before the
rendering calculations.
scene.pre_draw[] is not enough here, because if you want to change the
camera matrices (projection/modelview) the culling test is done before
that (after pre_draw_setup[] though).

Python sample code using this. The sample scene would need a default

cameras ('Camera.Left', 'Camera.Right') that will be used for the actual
rendering.
```
import bge
def callback():
scene = bge.logic.getCurrentScene()
objects = scene.objects
vr_camera = objects.get('Camera.VR')
if bge.render.getStereoEye() == bge.render.LEFT_EYE:
camera = objects.get('Camera.Left')
else:
camera = objects.get('Camera.Right')
vr_camera.worldOrientation = camera.worldOrientation
vr_camera.worldPosition = camera.worldPosition
def init():
scene = bge.logic.getCurrentScene()
main_camera = scene.active_camera
main_camera.useViewport = True
scene.pre_draw_setup.append(callback)

vr_camera.useViewport = True

bge.render.getWindowWidth(),

A new function (RunPythonCallBackList) to call all python functions
contained in a python list was developed.
This function has:
- first argument is the python list of callbacks
- second argument is a python list of arguments
- third argument is the minimum quantity of arguments
- forth argument is the maximum quantity of arguments
It improves flexibility and supports *args.

This change introduces a new hysteresis parameter that it will be added
or subtracted to/from the LOD distance to avoid popping when a LOD
object moves close to the LOD transition continuously.
Then, we have the following:
- a new LOD Hysteresis setting per scene (default 10%) which is located
in Scene context --> Level of Detail panel. This scene parameter also
will active/deactive the scene hysteresis.
- and a new LOD Hysteresis setting per object (default 10%) which is
located in Object context --> Levels of Detail panel. The LOD hysteresis
setting per object (if active) will overwrite the hysteresis setting per
scene value.
For the new blends: the hysteresis setting per scene would be active by
default and the per object would be inactive by default.
For the old blends: both hysteresis settings (per scene and per object)
would be inactive by default. A quick way to take advantage of this
feature for old blends would be to activate the hysteresis parameter in
the scene context -> Level of Detail panel

Instead of getting fancy this time, we'll just use Mahalin's simpler
fix. This may have slight performance impacts, but it is a lot simpler
than the previous fix and shouldn't cause as many bugs.
Scene replacement with invalid scene name was crashing blender,
now it's a no-op.
KS_Scene.replace() to return a boolean to indicate if the scene
is valid and is scheduled for replacement. This allows more
robust game management.
This is mostly the same fix as before, but now code depending on culling
checks is executed after KX_Scene->CalculateVisibleMeshes(). As a
side-effect, LoD checks and animation culling now use the current
frame's culling information rather than the previous frame's.
Updating object IPOs is not currently thread-safe since it also updates
children. This leads to problems when parents and children are both
animated. For now, updating object IPOs is done in its own loop to avoid
threading issues.
