An Intro to Godot 4 Particles + Godot Future Development Update

This is a combination tutorial/introduction to using Particle Systems in Godot 4.x, as well as an overview of recent and upcoming changes to particle systems in Godot starting with Godot 4.2 beta and going into the future, including a complete refactor of the GPUParticle3D class and a retirement of sorts for CPUParticles3D.
If you are only interested in the tutorial section of this video, start at 0:25 mark. If you are here for the news only, jump forward to the 7:45 Mark.

Basically, "Interpolate to End" lets you tell the particles to wrap up and go home faster. Imagine you have some 10s particles, and you want to disable the particle and make them disappear gracefully in 0.5s. All you need to do is disable "Emitting" and use a tweener to interpolate that property from 0 to 1.

Haven't tried it yet, but does anyone know if it fixes the macos crashes when using compatability mode with particles?

Is there a way to collide 2D particles?
