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. The new NavigationServer adds support for obstacle avoidance using the RVO2 library, and navigation meshes can now be baked at runtime. Full details are available in the updated docs.

This adds support for obstacle avoidance using the RVO2 library, and navigation meshes can now be baked at runtime. This can lead to a problem, when the movement of objects (which tends to occur on physics ticks) does not line up with the rendered frames, giving unsightly jitter. Anything behind the polygon will be culled from view.

  I have to admit it was frustrating to work with a machine that cannot handle much heavy calculations at once (my Macbook from 2011) from time to time, but on the other hand this forced me to get into optimizing the game very soon, what might become a good base for expanding the complexity in near future. Draw call batching.

Godot uses a considerably different approach to rendering (and rendering abstraction) than other, popular, game engines. This document was written in hopes to find more developers that would like to help us write rendering code, as it explains the overall design.

We know many users are excited about the coming improvements to 2D and 3D rendering in 4.0. Over the last few years we have completely overhauled the Godot renders. They now target Vulkan by default and we have created them with future support for Direct3D 12 and other rendering APIs in mind. has been added by Je06jm.
