Some of the most notables feature changes in this update are: 2D: Simplify isometric tile shape polygon in TileSet to 4 vertices ( GH-70238 ). Navigation: Use TileSet navigation layer layers when TileMap generates navigation polygons ( GH-69349 ). See the list of PRs with the breaks compat label for details.

Recently, NetEase introduced Mesh Shader support to Justice. His work focuses on the rendering engine in Justice, specifically GPU features enabled by DirectX 12. Soon we found we can combine Mesh Shaders with auto-generated LODs to achieve almost only-resolution-relevant rendering complexity, instead of polygon number.

Features of the new Godot 4.0 The new lightmapper is GPU based written mostly on Compute shaders (meaning it does most of the heavy lifting using the GPU, via Vulkan). Uses an efficient conservative rendering approximation to ensure thin polygons are not lost, but also avoids growing geometry too much (which reduces bake performance).
