Consider the characteristics of this rt; apart from the tree where Alpha is greater than 0, the rest of the Alpha is 0. aExtend is the expanded Alpha.

As the alpha of Godot 4.0 comes closer and closer, we wanted to spend some words to clarify the direction that Godot 4 has taken in regard of rendering back-ends. The renderer design and all resulting code had to be re-implemented entirely from scratch in order to support Vulkan and modern rendering techniques.

Brainstorming is the key element before a developer dives into coding or designing. Voice actors breathe life into characters, and developers write thousands of lines of code. Play testers explore the game, checking for bugs, rendering issues, and exploitable features. Project leads ensure everyone stays on track.

This is done here in the code. The GLES2 backend is a forward renderer, that means each gets shaded once. The counter-part - deferred rendering - renders each of the objects properties into a separate framebuffer. This is all pretty technical, but if you are interested, the code can be found here.
