How to convenient place many scene instance/objects with collision?
As many of you know, there is an addon called ProtonScatter (https://github.com/HungryProton/scatter) that allows you to conveniently place meshes and scene instances. However, I noticed that it ignores any collision in the scene wich it instance. So, is there really no way to enable collision in this plugin? Or there is another some way to conveniently place objects with a collision(For example trees), because just copying under a hundred trees is not very convenient. Sorry if it's stupid question. Thank you in advance!

Also, if you haven't tried https://github.com/HungryProton/scatter yet, this is your sign to use it. It saves so much time it's insane.

How to randomly place foliage around a level (3D)
There's also this tool/plugin https://github.com/HungryProton/scatter. Haven't used it myself but it seems pretty powerful, if you don't want to just make use of it there source is there to be read so you can base your own system off of it.

Godot 4 Terrain
Zylann's repo has a v4-compatible branch that was last updated 4 days ago, and there seems to be another one working on this, and another one published a few months ago, plus there are lots of videos out there about doing it in other tools and then just importing the heightmaps / splatmaps in Godot (e.g. from devmar's YT channel).

Godot for AA/AAA game development - What's missing?
Sweet, how's the tooling to actually make a playable textured level from a heightmap though? In 3.0 I had to rely on Zylann's excellent plugin which was all well and good but I needed to compile it for each platform I wanted to ship on, and editor integration was good but not perfect. Also procedural generation of terrain in-game wasn't practical.
As we know, there's a lack of a node similar to Unreal's Landscape and Unity's Terrain. I believe this hurts Godot more than generally assumed. There is of course Zylann's plugin for 3.x, but I believe an officially supported node for this would be incredibly beneficial. Zylann's plugin will most likely get updated for 4.x eventually, but I personally know people who were shocked to find out that this functionality was not in Godot 4 when it had so many improvements for 3D - and it ended up being the deal breaker that pushed them away.
