Anyone using the godot_box2d physics module in a Godot 3.x project willing to test a 4.0 update?
Of course I'll keep working on my "competing" GDExtension physics_server_box2d (still in very early stages), but in the meantime I managed (upon request) to get the godot_box2d module compiling with the latest 4.0. Testing is appreciated!

Box2D as default physics engine
Not the default, but a GDExtension for it is a work in progress: https://github.com/rburing/physics_server_box2d

Godot 4 custom physics engine?
For how-to you could check out this Box2D physics server implementation (unfinished according to the description).

Box2D has entered the Godot area
Box2D has some advantages such as being more deterministic. This could be used for example in a multiplayer game to make better predictions, which will lead to a better user experience. It's already being used in Godot via https://github.com/briansemrau/godot_box2d. That module also integrates Box2D into Godot, but in a different way: requiring you to use a new set of body/collision nodes.
