Editor • Support baking high-precision lighting maps to get a better baking effect. When the user turns on high-precision lightmap baking, 16-bit colors are used instead of 8-bit colors, and AO channels are baked separately. Improvements • Move the Light Bake entry from the top item settings menu to the panel menu. •

To solve this, it is now possible to emit particles manually by calling a function from the script API: Sub-Emitters. Emitting particles manually is not only possible from script. Baked SDF Collision. It bakes an area of a custom resolution as a signed distance field. To solve this, the SDF collider was added.

Fixed the terrain as too dark, caused by the lighting calculation issue in the builtin-terrain material. Fixed some npm libraries not working due to the use of ‘use strict’ when building scripts. Fixed crash issue when baking high-precision Lightmap for the terrain. Fixed Toon shader data issue on iOS Wechat.

Since the last post I’ve been working on the terrain’s vegetation. Doing it before starting the actual game would mean to already generate all the content that needs to be batched at the beginning, which is no solution for a theoretically “endless procedurally generated” terrain. That’s it. When

Optimizing Scripting: Reduce Overhead & Boost Efficiency Key Issues & Solutions - Update() Overhead: Multiple objects invoke Update() reduce performance. Optimization Strategies: Static Batching unites several stationary game elements into a single GPU drawing operation (such as terrain together with buildings).

which would have included new multiplayer networking, visual scripting and many other improvements) because we realized that projects using the new features would no longer work in 3.0, Visual Scripting. Just set up the probe bounds and do a fast pre-bake of static objects. A year ago, we decided to skip the release of Godot 2.2
