Open Source Simulation Expands with NVIDIA PhysX 5 Release

Nvidia

A signed distance field collision feature on GPU has also been added, which allows the user to perform collision detection using a voxelized version of the source mesh, eliminating the need to create a convex decomposition.

Release candidate: Godot 3.5 RC 2

Mircosoft Game Dev

A long-standing Bullet regression has finally been fixed ( GH-56801 ), solving issues with KinematicBody collisions on edges (e.g. The new NavigationServer adds support for obstacle avoidance using the RVO2 library, and navigation meshes can now be baked at runtime. Windows: Improve console handling and execute ( GH-55987 ).

The new NavigationServer adds support for obstacle avoidance using the RVO2 library, and navigation meshes can now be baked at runtime. And for more advanced use cases, there is now also TextMesh to generate 3D meshes from font glyphs, so you can add Word Art to your scenes ;). and backported to 3.5. This was merged fairly late (3.5
