Good morning, this is Godot Daily for May 23rd, 2026.
Shiena merged a critical fix for Android infinite recursion in proxy equals handler. The issue caused StackOverflowErrors when Kotlin's equality operator created recursive calls through the JDK proxy. The fix switches to reference equality matching default Object behavior.
YeldhamDev merged a fix for buttons in EditorProperty overlapping with values, resolving visual interface issues in the editor inspector. The solution prevents UI elements from interfering with displayed property values.
Barthy-koeln merged TextServerFB improvements for zero-width space detection and rendering. The fix adds detection for word joiner and zero-width no-break space characters while properly handling preserve control settings.
Norepro merged FileSystem dock style fixes across split modes, ensuring consistent background styling in both horizontal and vertical split configurations.
Bruvzg contributed two platform fixes: an iOS resource directory path correction when using godot_path, and a HarfBuzz typo fix affecting specific system library versions.
