GH-94783 ) Change NavigationMesh to also parse collision shapes by default. This is part of an effort to encourage users to use collision shapes for NavigationMesh instead of visual meshes as collision shapes are much simpler and thus more efficient for Navigation. ( GH-95013 ) XR: Disable hand tracking by default.

Such pointer could be reported as valid even though the memory it points to was not, or worse, that memory could now hold a different object, leading to hard to debug situations. Thanks to the work of Pedro ( RandomShaper ), debug versions of Godot (e.g. Thanks to the work of Pedro ( RandomShaper ), debug versions of Godot (e.g.

Revamped collision layer grid in the inspector. Localized class reference. Such use-after-free access needs to be guarded with is_instance_valid(obj) , but this has been surprisingly difficult to get right due to a number of bugs and inconsistencies between debug and release builds.

You can use the library to easily create scenes, add layers, build sprites, handle actions and collisions, add key events, and so much more. While other game developers might be able to tackle detailed coding requirements or easily debug code issues using their knowledge, Kaboom.js What is Kaboom.js? How to build Snake.

As a side benefit, you can look at the script in the inspector and see the Entity’s id which may be useful for a variety of debugging purposes. The collider for my characters was intentionally scaled down just a bit, to help avoid unintended physics collisions from adjacent units. So far my characters are about a unit wide.

On the debugging front, our contributor Joan Fons Sanchez added a new network profiler , which will help you monitor the bandwidth usage of your game in real time. He already started with a much needed enhancement included in this release, which is the addition of a local HTTP server used by the editor to run WebAssembly exports.

Godot can debug multiple instances of the game concurrently so we need multiple instances of the profiler. Potentially look at adding some form of collision detection to the Jiggle modifiers, in both 2D and 3D. Localization is part of game development if one wishes to make their games more accessible to a wider audience.
