Happy new year to the wonderful Godot community!
2020 has been a tough year for most of us personally, but a good year for
Godot development nonetheless with a huge amount of work done towards Godot
4.0 and great improvements backported to the long-lived 3.2 branch.
We've had close to 400 contributors to engine code this year, authoring near
7,000 commit! (And that's only for the `master` branch and for the engine code,
there's a lot more when counting docs, demos and other first-party repos.)
Here's to a great year 2021 for all Godot users 🎆
(cherry picked from commit b5334d14f7)
Changed CPU velocity calculation for EMISSION_SHAPE_DIRECTED_POINTS
to follow the same logic as in the GPU version:
mat2 rotm;
rotm[0] = texelFetch(emission_texture_normal, emission_tex_ofs, 0).xy;
rotm[1] = rotm[0].yx * vec2(1.0, -1.0);
VELOCITY.xy = rotm * VELOCITY.xy;
Now both CPUParticles2D & CPUParticles3D (z disabled) show the same results
as their GPU counterparts and take the initial velocity settings into account.

Happy new year to the wonderful Godot community!
We're starting a new decade with a well-established, non-profit, free
and open source game engine, and tons of further improvements in the
pipeline from hundreds of contributors.
Godot will keep getting better, and we're looking forward to all the
games that the community will keep developing and releasing with it.
Particles were processed only on the next frame after the emission started, causing a one frame delay in rendering. Now the first process cycle is started during the same frame, which makes them consistent with Particles & Particles2D.
Fixes#32890
The original shader code uses a phase (ratio from 0 to 1 for the particle
lifetime) for the randomness ratio computations, and this code was ported
over but converted to time computations.
The seeding/cycle logic was thus invalid, so we're going back to phase
for these computations, thus fixing the previous non-working time/emission
randomness property.
Part of #29692. Follow-up to #26859.
The tangential acceleration for both CPUParticles2D and CPUParticles had been
badly converted from their GPU counterpart (ParticlesMaterial).
This fixes it and ensures that both GPU and CPU particles behave the same with
regard to tangential acceleration.
Remove animation loop from ParticlesMaterial and move it to
SpatialMaterial for 3D particles and Particles2D for the 2D case.
Added animation to CPUParticles2D as well as the "Convert to
CPUParticles2D" to the PAarticles2D menu.
