in January 2020, we switched the development focus towards the upcoming Godot 4.0 , which is a major, compatibility-breaking rewrite of the engine's core and rendering. x updates with bug fixes, but also new features as long as they don't require breaking compatibility. Dynamic BVH for rendering and GodotPhysics.

New dynamic BVH for rendering and the GodotPhysics backends, which should fix some issues and improve performance significantly in games using a high number of dynamic objects. In this beta, the dynamic BVH is the default option for both physics and rendering. New dynamic BVH for rendering and the GodotPhysics backends (new in beta 6).

rendering may be slower for a second or two, but the slowdown will not be nearly as bad as the typical hiccup caused by classic synchronous compilation. Then smix8 took over the custody of this area, fixing a lot of bugs and improving the feature set greatly, with the help of Pawel Lampe ( Scony ). back in 2020! and backported to 3.5.

This RC 3 fixes a number of recent regressions and older bugs. Notably, it fixes some rendering regressions with transparent materials, and crashing iOS templates and Web editor build in RC 2. The new NavigationServer adds support for obstacle avoidance using the RVO2 library, and navigation meshes can now be baked at runtime.
