The first Release Candidate for 26.3 is now here! Users have put WorldScape3D, Structs, Traits, and Nullable Static types through the wringer since the Beta release, and Redot devs and contributors have been squashing those bugs left and right. In addition to those fixes, there's also been fixes for Mode7, Physics2D, and other features. You can see them for yourself in the full changelog below.
