This release only supports Godot 4.3 and Godot 4.4.

Changelog

These are the notable changes that have been made since 0.14.0-stable was released. You can also find a list of all the commits here, and the list of upstream changes to Jolt itself here.

Any breaking changes are denoted with ⚠️.

Changed

• ⚠️ Changed the registered physics engine name from "JoltPhysics3D" to "Jolt Physics (Extension)", to avoid confusion when used in Godot 4.4.
• ⚠️ Moved the project settings from physics/jolt_3d/* to physics/jolt_physics_extension_3d/*, to avoid confusion when used in Godot 4.4.
• ⚠️ Changed the name of JoltPhysicsServer3D to JoltPhysicsServer3DExtension, to avoid name collision with the built-in Jolt module in Godot 4.4.
• ⚠️ Raised the minimum required glibc version for the Linux binaries from 2.31 to 2.35, which for Ubuntu raises the minimum required version from Ubuntu 20.04 to Ubuntu 22.04.
• ⚠️ Changed the "Use Enhanced Internal Edge Detection" project setting under the "Collisions" category to only apply to the collision detection that happens for RigidBody3D. There are now instead identically named settings under the "Kinematics" and "Queries" categories for controlling those contexts. See below for more information.

Added

• Added a new "Use Enhanced Internal Edge Detection" project setting under the "Kinematics" category for controlling the use of Jolt's enhanced internal edge detection in the context of kinematic movement methods, meaning the body_test_motion method of PhysicsServer3D, which is also what powers test_move, move_and_collide and move_and_slide.
• Added a new "Use Enhanced Internal Edge Detection" project setting under the "Queries" category for controlling the use of Jolt's enhanced internal edge detection in the context of shape queries, meaning collide_shape, intersect_shape, get_rest_info and cast_motion, which is also what powers the ShapeCast3D node.

Fixed

• ⚠️ Fixed issue where custom inertia wouldn't be applied correctly for bodies using ConvexPolygonShape3D or offset shapes.
• ⚠️ Fixed issue where shape queries (e.g. collide_shape) would not function correctly when overlapping with multiple bodies and the "Use Enhanced Internal Edge Detection" project setting was enabled.
• Fixed issue with spring stiffness not having any effect for Generic6DOFJoint3D.
• Fixed issue where effective total damping wouldn't be updated when changing the linear_damp_mode or angular_damp_mode properties of RigidBody3D after it had entered a scene tree.
• Fixed issue where changing damping-related properties of Area3D wouldn't update damping for the bodies it overlapped.
