This beta includes a few big changes which may interest a lot of users: Animated sprites, both 2D and 3D, now support options for more precise timing of individual frames ( GH-65609 ). More engine enums are now bound with BitField, making their usage more type-safe, especially in C# ( GH-71037 , GH-71045 , GH-71116 ). What's new.

x is that, several times, sprites are separated in many nodes in order to be animated or assembled. If a shader is applied to them, or if transparency is changed, the effect is applied to every node individually, given they each do it in their own draw call. accum/max_dist); if (accum < fade_margin) { alpha *= max(0.0,accum
