NOVEMBER 6, 2021

Fixes depth sorting of meshes with transparent textures ( GH-50721 ). Morris Arroad ( mortarroad ) has worked on using a more reliable algorithm from Bullet to generate physics convex hulls from meshes. now defaults to using it for lossless texture compression instead of PNGs, thanks to work from Morris Arroad ( mortarroad ).

2D: Pseudo 3D, Texture atlas, AStar2D. our contributor Yuri Roubinsky did a huge rework of the new visual shader's UX , and eventually assumed full maintainership of the feature. Skin support allows multiple meshes to share a single skeleton. 2D: Pseudo 3D, Texture atlas, AStar2D. Graphics/Rendering improvements.
