Ultimately, we decided to create our custom physics engine, using NWH Wheel Collider as a base for collisions and writing every part of car physics from scratch. Developing our own engine was challenging, requiring extensive testing and iteration, but it was crucial for delivering the racing experience we envisioned.”

Godot Engine reaches 2.0 stable

FEBRUARY 22, 2016

This version worked well but we felt it was still far from the usability and features of a modern game engine. The more urgent issue was to improve the 2D engine so we worked hard again and released Godot 1.1, Collision and navigation debugging. In the vein of larger game engines, Godot has now live editing support.

Godot 3.1 will get many improvements to KinematicBody

Mircosoft Game Dev

JULY 16, 2018

One of the features that make Godot stand out is how easy it is to use the physics engine for non-physics games. This function tries to move the character using that velocity and every time a collision is found, it will slide against it (and adjust the velocity accordingly). KinematicBody. velocity = move_and_slide(velocity).
