lowkey it's very cool that godot lets you mess with transform matrices right from inspector
it helps a lot to have an intuitive understanding of how they work in gamedev especially when making shaders

Best thing about godot is that even if something sucks it's never GG. There are lowlevel apis for everything and you can always change the source code
You may not at the time have the skills or resources to do that, but the fact that no problem is unsolvable makes all the difference in the long run

I was todays years old when I learned that in godot if you make a category with a name that has a matching editor icon the inspector will use that icon for the category

most of the time when I get stuck on something not working when programming it's not because of bugs but because of some stupid ass shit like I forgot to reload an addon or I was testing a wrong git branch 😂

It's incredibly hard to make a public general-purpose game engine. A project of this scale is only possible due to contributors putting in countless hours and to people supporting it and making games with it!
Thank you for making gamedev open-source ❤️

trying to draw file dependency graphs in godot to be able to see what's referencing what. double clicking nodes redraws graph from them, allowing to navigate around the project

Boring janitorial work but unavoidable
Made dependency viewer show arrows for out of folder textures (will turn pink if blend file is moved), icons for packed ones, a list of unpacked ones on disk that arent used by this blend anymore
All needed to work with a lot of materials, otherwise chaos

A new editor theme, inverse kinematics, standalone library support, and more await in this production-ready build 🚀
Help us get it over the finish line with one final round of testing:
