Godot Daily: Editor Fixes and Export Improvements

Transcript

Good morning. This is Godot Daily for May 16th, 2026.

YeldhamDev merged a fix for wrong path handling in EditorExportPlugin export_begin when zipping. The editor was incorrectly passing temporary folder paths instead of actual preset paths during ZIP exports. This required changes across 21 files in the export platform system.

KoBeWi merged fixes for various editor state regressions, resolving issues with dummy scene states overwriting first scenes and scene tabs not updating properly during navigation. The fix also renamed the selected_nodes state key to avoid upgrade errors.

Vaner-org merged improvements to inline shader preview layout, enhancing information density and adding resizable panels with improved visual connections between code lines and preview elements.

YeldhamDev merged a fix for misaligned timeline indicators in the Bezier editor and resolved error spam when resizing controls in zero-size parents with anchors mode enabled.

L3GiaBao merged a fix preventing BoneAttachment3D from throwing is_inside_tree errors by ensuring the skeleton enters the tree before pose calculations.

M4gr3d merged Android fixes addressing crashes reported through the Play Store, adding null checks in asset library and runtime node selection components.

Additional merges included Bromeon's fix for RefCounted singleton undefined behavior, DeeJayLSP's suppression of GCC 16 sfinae-incomplete warnings, Buresu's Wayland popup height fallback correction, and Bruvzg's accessibility improvement removing duplicate inspector element values.

What's next: The export system improvements should streamline plugin development workflows. The editor state fixes resolve several user-reported navigation issues from recent updates.

That's your Godot development update. Back tomorrow.
