Godot can render at frame rates independent from the fixed physics tick rate. This can lead to problems where the movement of objects (which tends to occur on physics ticks) does not line up with the rendered frames, causing unsightly jitter. Asynchronous shader compilation + caching (ubershader). Physics interpolation in 3D.

The new lightmapper is GPU based written mostly on Compute shaders (meaning it does most of the heavy lifting using the GPU, via Vulkan). branch uses state of the art algorithms to ensure the maximum possible quality: Bakes geometry to lightmap coordinates using the actual rendering code, so any existing shader or material works.
