Release candidate: Godot 3.2.1 RC 2 By: Rémi Verschelde

Time flies and it's already close to two weeks since our first release candidate for the upcoming Godot 3.2.1, which will be a maintenance update focusing on bug fixes for Godot 3.2 users. I planned to have 3.2.1-stable already released by now, but I was sidetracked by the refactoring work which is happening in the master branch for Godot 4.0 :-)

Since RC 1, a couple regressions have been fixed, and a few additional bug fixes, documentation updates and usability enhancements have been included. We now publish Godot 3.2.1 RC 2 to validate those additional changes. 53 new commits have been cherry-picked to the 3.2 branch, for a total of 171 commits since the 3.2-stable release.

Highlights

There are no huge changes planned in this release, but mostly a focus on fixing some blocking regressions and important bugs, such as:

Android: Fix double tap pressed event regression (GH-35701).
