Fixes bugs with broken shaders (Apparently deleting a mesh instance in Godot deletes the vectors passed into uniforms? Feels like bad behavior... but at least I know now). It was causing planets and stars to show up as black/weirdly colored after playing for some time. Now fixed.
Fixes a potential memory leak. Worst case is the game could go from 500MB to 1GB by the end of the game, still good to have it fixed.
Fixes an out-of-bounds bug by tying movement to the physics update instead of the rendering update, and by using .velocity, instead of .position, for player movement.
Fixes an issue where the player camera could look upside down (oops).
Makes the game run significantly faster by not re-rendering the reflection probe every frame, instead it's only run every time you visit a new location.
Fixes the SSR, which despite being enabled, were never actually visible in the final game. SSR will not render onto a moving object...? Makes sense, if it uses the last frame for reflections, but I'd still rather make this a setting instead of the workaround I had to use here.
Better balances the game to be more difficult, and require some actual strategy.
