Improved Inspector sub-resource editing. There were multiple attempts at implementing it, but it took time to refine them into someting reliable that could be merged, especially due to the need to take into account the full complexity of the scene tree (instanced scenes, editable children, shared or unique resources and subresources, etc.).

Tile atlas editing. The first mode allows editing the atlas properties and creating/removing base tiles, the second one allows selecting and editing tiles properties, and the last one is to paint properties over the tiles. Note that, when editing a TileMap, you can replace all cells by their corresponding mapped value.

We also have adopted some UX tips from Unreal Engine 4 for the initialisation of a VCS in a new project, however since Unreal Engine uses an external editor for C++ code by default, we found ourselves looking at something similar to what we already have in Visual Studio/Visual Studio Code.

Our script editor maintainer, Paul Batty ( Paulb23 ), implemented initial support for multi-caret editing in TextEdit, which is therefore usable in the GDScript and shader editors, as well as any other multi-line text field in the editor. See this demonstration made by MewPurPur : Improved ColorPicker UX ( GH-62910 ).

My goal here is to improve the UX of working with tiles, making it both easier to use and more powerful. When a TileMap node is selected, you can now switch between the TileMap view, to pick tiles and draw them on the TileMap, and the TileSet editor, to edit the tile properties (colisions, Z-index, etc.):
