Getting #GodotEngine oiled up to the state it is now, where development speed is so incredibly fast and there is such good harmony with foundation, contributions and community took many many, _many_ years of refining processes for development, contribution, release management, moderation, etc.
I will do a talk about it at GodotCon in a week explaining parts of this process!

just found out you can dump visual studio exception info in C++ on a crash to a file even in a release build and then open the file in visual studio and have the call stack and locals with all the line numbers (optimization permitting more or less) intact. this is game changing for debugging crashes on other people's computers.

Objects designated as "decals" sample normals from a "base" object, causing them to be culled when facing away from the camera.
i have a phd in particle systems
how is this the first time i've seen this menu option in any software??
it's temping to think sometimes that there is a singular clever solution to a game design problem when in reality the solution is a bunch of small tweaks across the systems

I was explaining to a friend what issues I was having when trying to work with vector stuff, and then mid-explanation understood what I'm supposed to do to get results like this :D
