In the past two weeks since beta 2, we had over 250 PRs merged , many of which fixed bugs reported by beta testers. Buildsystem: Unify tools / target build type configuration ( GH-66242 ). This doesn’t affect most users directly, but for anyone compiling Godot from source, we’ve refactored the way we define what to build.

I also uploaded the dev build of the Delores engine (including the complete debugger) so you can run all your edits and changes. I generally won't be accepting pull requests just for modifications to the game unless they fix bugs related to getting this repo working. If we broke a store build, it would be hours of tech support emails.

Why should you build your game, spend 1 year on it, and then go back through everything you did to tweak the code and the settings to optimize it? This is messy and will lead to hard-to-find bugs in the end.
