Same fix, two branches, same day — this is a security patch being deliberately backported, so if you're building on either release line, expect this update…
The second theme is a reminder that structural refactors carry hidden costs. HolonProduction's PR 121064 removed the single shared "datatype" field from GDScript's AST nodes and replaced it with type fields specific to each node subtype. The stated goal is maintainability — tools like "Find usages" won't get…
Beyond those two threads, it was a broad cleanup day. Physics got a real correctness fix — PR 121100 fixes velocity calculations at a custom center of mass in 2D physics, which could subtly affect character body movement. Editor UX saw several small wins: reduced script gutter width in PR 113230, a search bar for…
What's next: watch for more fallout from the GDScript AST refactor as other systems that touched the old datatype field get updated. And on the C sharp side, Komariarii has opened PRs 121153 and…
