Fred: One of the main considerations for selecting Godot as the game engine for this project was finding an open-source engine that could provide flexibility, scalability, and a strong support community. You can find the code for that driver on the freedesktop.org GitLab. It will be upstreamed soon.

First of all, most of the new features still have significant bugs and performance problems that will not be solved in time for the upcoming 4.0 release (there is just too much new code that needs to be tested throughly). More experienced programmers can use the servers directly or even plug C++ code to do the heavy lifting.
