We had a beta 2 build ten days ago , and a number of issues have since been found and fixed, so it's time for Godot 3.4 This build also fixes a nasty crash on Windows for some projects using dynamic fonts with outlines, triggered by a buildsystem update ( GH-50790 ). Rendering: Rooms and portals-based occlusion culling ( GH-46130 ).

A long-standing Bullet regression has finally been fixed ( GH-56801 ), solving issues with KinematicBody collisions on edges (e.g. The fix seems relatively safe but this will require heavy testing to make sure it doesn't regress - if you have 3D games using Bullet physics, please try this RC 2 and report any issue.

Notably, it fixes some rendering regressions with transparent materials, and crashing iOS templates and Web editor build in RC 2. In order to benefit you should be moving your objects and running your game logic in _physics_process(). This ensures your game will run the same on all machines. Jump to the Downloads section.

At this stage it's really close to stable, we just had a few more regression fixes merged since the previous build that warrant another build for testing: Android: Address remaining scoped storage regressions ( GH-63480 ). In order to benefit you should be moving your objects and running your game logic in _physics_process().

This new RC 2 build should be quite stable and we hope that many Godot 3.2.x stable build. If all goes well, the next build should be 3.2.2-stable. It should be safe to test this build directly with pre-existing projects made with Godot 3.2.x. GLES2 batching is enabled by default both in-game and in the editor.

The ugly reality of software development is that legacy code builds up really quick and keeping it up to date, ready for new challenges that arise several years down the line takes a lot of effort.

Before going into optimizing for multiple threads, let's first take a look at the typical order of execution of the main blocks of a game engine. Research on game engine optimization for multiple threads at the time resulted in documentation and papers for a new technique named job scheduling. How is this achieved?
