Shader management is critical. Reduce variants, embrace GPU instancing, and bake lighting when possible. Budget them like you would any feature, and when possible, bake effects directly into scene assets. Filter collisions with layers, and calibrate FixedUpdate() intervals to suit gameplay needs.

Physics: Many fixes to one-way collisions. Fixes to KinematicBody collisions. Cylinder collision shape for GodotPhysics. It was reusing parts of the code for baking GIProbes, and that made it quick but not great in terms of quality. Many fixes to one-way collisions. One-way collisions prior to Godot 3.3

This RC 6 has a few notable changes compared to the previous build: In RC 4, async shader compilation and caching was enabled by default on desktop, but several users reported issues with it on some hardware. You can enable it in the Project Settings ( rendering/gles3/shaders/shader_compilation_mode ). Estébanez ( RandomShaper )!

Materials and shaders. Just set up the probe bounds and do a fast pre-bake of static objects. Still, this workflow is easy and efficient as 3D objects get a second set of UVs generated on import, and baking works with instantiated meshes, scenes and even GridMaps. Materials and shaders. writing shaders is very easy!

Visual shader editor. Some shader features will not work and throw an error when used (which is to be expected when using an older OpenGL version). As this back-end is intended to run on the lowest end hardware possible, shaders need to be kept very small. Use baked lightmaps instead. Visual shader editor.
