    After looking at the Unite LA Road map PDF I saw we have confirmation we have 2D shadows and lighting coming in 2019.1. The supporting lights said 2D Shaped Base lights, 2D points lights, and 2D spot lights.

    I was wondering do they have any plans on releasing this during the alpha stages or should I not hold my breath and wait for beta timeline. Saying that I am really happy to see confirmation of a 2D lighting system. just saying if you guys want to go ahead and adds 2D collider navmesh support while your at it you won';t hear any complaints from me.

    PS. keep up the good work.

    Hi cecilcruxis,
    Some of the 2D features are not yet in the editor and will come during the alpha phase. However, some of the features will be delivered in Packages which might be delivered later during the beta phase.
