It works similar to getActionFrame(), you have to give a layer or not (for layer 0) as the argument and it returns the name of the animation that the object is currently playing.
Example:
```
import bge
own = bge.logic.getCurrentController().owner
own.playAction("SomeAction",0,20)
print(own.getActionName())
```
>> SomeAction
Here is an example file, just open the blend file with the terminal opened
and press P, you can see how the current animation is being printed:

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.

A Python API for the collision group / mask has been added:
```
KX_GameObject.collisionGroup
KX_GameObject.collisionMask
```
The maximum number of collision groups and masked has been increased from eight to sixteen.
This means that the max value of collisionGroup/Mask is (2 ** 16) - 1
EndObject will now activate objects that were sleeping and colliding with the removed object.
This means that, unlike now, if a rigid body starts sleeping on top of another object, when the latter is removed the rigid body will activate and fall, rather than float midair as before.
Collision groups that do not intersect used to collide on the first frame. Now this has been fixed so that they collide appropriately.

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

Added a new "current_lod_level" property to the python api of
KX_GameObject. The property returns the current lod level of the game
object. The purpose of the property is activate logic routines only when
an object is at a certain lod-distance from the camera, avoiding to
separately recomputing the same distance in the logic script. Usage in
python script might look like:
owner = bge.logic.getCurrentController().owner
lod_level = owner.currentLodLevel
if lod_level == 0: ...do something
else: ... object might be too distant

This patch adds two parameters to the functions in the
collisionCallbacks list. The callback function should thus be like
this:
```
def on_colliding(other, point, normal):
print("Colliding with %s at %s with normal %s" % (other, point, normal))
game_ob.collisionCallbacks.append(on_colliding)
```
The `point` parameter will contain the collision point in world
coordinates on the current object, and the `normal` contains the
surface normal at the collision point.
The callback functions are checked for the number of arguments
`co_argcount`. The new `point` and `normal` arguments are only passed
when `co_argcount > 1` or when `co_argcount` cannot be determined.

This patch adds the following R/W properties and method to `KX_GameObject`:
- `linearDamping` -- get/set linear damping
- `angluarDamping` -- get/set angular damping
- `setDamping(linear, angular)` -- set both simultaneously
These allow runtime changes to the same properties that are accessible at design time in Blender's UI via `game.damping` and `game.rotation_damping`. The names of the properties were chosen to mirror the internal names of the BGE physics engine, as these are (AFAIK) also the commonly used names in physics literature.

Navigation mesh object need to access the current scene at
creation time. This can be at scene start or when an object
is instantiated from an inactive layer. The method of getting
the scene differs in these cases. This fix handles both.
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.
This is related to task T29419. Credit also goes to Goran Milovanovic
(goran) for proposing an initial fix for this issue.
The issue is the current behavior of applyImpulse doesn't match the behavior
described in the documentation as instead of a impulse point in world coordinates,
it seems to require a coordinate in a local space.
Additionally, applyImpulse function isn't consistent with similar functions (applyForce, applyTorque, etc)
as it doesn't allow to choose in which space (local or global) the impulse is applied.
Now, we have the following function:
applyImpulse(point, impulse, local=False)
being "point" the point to apply the impulse to (in world or local coordinates). When local is False will
have both point and impulse in World space and when local is True will have point and impulse in local space.

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.
I'm not sure why this function ever increased the object's refcount. Any
place in the code that calls KX_GameObject::GetParent() has to turn
around and call parent->Release(). Forgetting to call Release() was a
common cause of memory leaks (in fact, KX_SteeringActuator was probably
leaking). If the refcount needs to be increased, the calling code can
handle calling AddRef().
Levels of detail can be added and modified in the object panel. The object
panel also contains new tools for generating levels of detail, setting up
levels of detail based on object names (useful for importing), and
clearing an object's level of detail settings. This is meant as a game
engine feature, though the level of details settings can be previewed in
the viewport.

BGE: Some first steps in trying to cleanup the KX_IPhysicsController mess. KX_GameObject now has a GetPhysicsController() and a GetPhysicsController1(). The former returns a PHY_IPhysicsController* while the latter returns a KX_IPhysicsController. The goal is to get everything using GetPhysicsController() instead of GetPhysicsController1().
KX_GameObject now has a collisionCallbacks list which is a list of callables that are called when a collision occurs. The callables will be called with an argument that contains a reference to the other object involved in the collision (i.e., not self).
* Removing KX_Scene::RemoveAnimatedObject() since KX_Scene::NewRemoveObject() is already handling this.
* Don't create a new BL_ActionManager when replicating an object. Just set m_actionManager to NULL and let KX_GameObject::GetActionManager() allocate a new BL_ActionManager when one is needed.
* Use KX_GameObject::GetScene() instead of KX_GetActiveScene() in KX_GameObject::GetActionManager() to make sure we're using the object's scene instead of one where Python might currently be running from. This could avoid potential issues with playing actions for objects in other scenes.
