Buggy draw_multiline() function?

MangoTree

Hi all,

It looks like the draw_multiline() function is unaffected by stroke width. Take the code below:

func _draw():
var a=[]
var dashes=100
for i in range (dashes):
	a.append(Vector2(OS.window_size.x/2,OS.window_size.y/2)+Vector2(i-dashes,0)*10)
draw_multiline(a,Color(0.1,0.9,0.05),5)

Try running this code with different values for line width. The thickness remains virtually unaffected. Is this a bug, or am I missing out something?

Thanks in advance.

As of 3.1, line width and anti-aliasing aren't implemented yet in draw_multiline().

Documentation should be edited to reflect this :)

Edit: Documentation has been updated.

What is the advantage of this method over just using draw_line() in the firs place? Improved performance?

Also, documentation is misleading: it does not draw parallel lines, but multiple lines simultaneously, it seems.

I opened a pull request to further improve the documentation: https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/55517
