New improvements for GPUParticles in Godot 4.0

Mircosoft Game Dev

Allows collisions against the physics world. Additionally, a 3D vector field texture can be provided for use with vector fields generated in Maya or other tools. They are dynamic and can be moved around in real-time, colliding with any particle system which matches the cull mask. Baked SDF Collision. Less flexible.

Godot 3.4 is released with major features and UX polish

Mircosoft Game Dev

Rendering: Portal occlusion culling. Revamped collision layer grid in the inspector. Portal occlusion culling. Up till now a significant missing feature in the renderer has been the ability to cull (prevent rendering) objects that are within the camera view, but occluded by another object (for instance a wall).
