[1.4.0] - 2023-04-10

Added

  • Added a way to access the GlobalObjectIdHash via PrefabIdHash for use in the Connection Approval Callback. (#2437)
  • Added OnServerStarted and OnServerStopped events that will trigger only on the server (or host player) to notify that the server just started or is no longer active (#2420)
  • Added OnClientStarted and OnClientStopped events that will trigger only on the client (or host player) to notify that the client just started or is no longer active (#2420)
  • Added NetworkTransform.UseHalfFloatPrecision property that, when enabled, will use half float values for position, rotation, and scale. This yields a 50% bandwidth savings a the cost of precision. (#2388)
  • Added NetworkTransform.UseQuaternionSynchronization property that, when enabled, will synchronize the entire quaternion. (#2388)
  • Added NetworkTransform.UseQuaternionCompression property that, when enabled, will use a smallest three implementation reducing a full quaternion synchronization update to the size of an unsigned integer. (#2388)
  • Added NetworkTransform.SlerpPosition property that, when enabled along with interpolation being enabled, will interpolate using Vector3.Slerp. (#2388)
  • Added BufferedLinearInterpolatorVector3 that replaces the float version, is now used by NetworkTransform, and provides the ability to enable or disable Slerp. (#2388)
  • Added HalfVector3 used for scale when half float precision is enabled. (#2388)
  • Added HalfVector4 used for rotation when half float precision and quaternion synchronization is enabled. (#2388)
  • Added HalfVector3DeltaPosition used for position when half float precision is enabled. This handles loss in position precision by updating only the delta position as opposed to the full position. (#2388)
  • Added NetworkTransform.GetSpaceRelativePosition and NetworkTransform.GetSpaceRelativeRotation helper methods to return the proper values depending upon whether local or world space. (#2388)
  • Added NetworkTransform.OnAuthorityPushTransformState virtual method that is invoked just prior to sending the NetworkTransformState to non-authoritative instances. This provides users with the ability to obtain more precise delta values for prediction related calculations. (#2388)
  • Added NetworkTransform.OnNetworkTransformStateUpdated virtual method that is invoked just after the authoritative NetworkTransformState is applied. This provides users with the ability to obtain more precise delta values for prediction related calculations. (#2388)
  • Added NetworkTransform.OnInitializevirtual method that is invoked after the NetworkTransform has been initialized or re-initialized when ownership changes. This provides for a way to make adjustments when NetworkTransform is initialized (i.e. resetting client prediction etc) (#2388)
  • Added NetworkObject.SynchronizeTransform property (default is true) that provides users with another way to help with bandwidth optimizations where, when set to false, the NetworkObject's associated transform will not be included when spawning and/or synchronizing late joining players. (#2388)
  • Added NetworkSceneManager.ActiveSceneSynchronizationEnabled property, disabled by default, that enables client synchronization of server-side active scene changes. (#2383)
  • Added NetworkObject.ActiveSceneSynchronization, disabled by default, that will automatically migrate a NetworkObject to a newly assigned active scene. (#2383)
  • Added NetworkObject.SceneMigrationSynchronization, enabled by default, that will synchronize client(s) when a NetworkObject is migrated into a new scene on the server side via SceneManager.MoveGameObjectToScene. (#2383)

Changed

  • Made sure the CheckObjectVisibility delegate is checked and applied, upon NetworkShow attempt. Found while supporting (#2454), although this is not a fix for this (already fixed) issue. (#2463)
  • Changed NetworkTransform authority handles delta checks on each new network tick and no longer consumes processing cycles checking for deltas for all frames in-between ticks. (#2388)
  • Changed the NetworkTransformState structure is now public and now has public methods that provide access to key properties of the NetworkTransformState structure. (#2388)
  • Changed NetworkTransform interpolation adjusts its interpolation "ticks ago" to be 2 ticks latent if it is owner authoritative and the instance is not the server or 1 tick latent if the instance is the server and/or is server authoritative. (#2388)
  • Updated NetworkSceneManager to migrate dynamically spawned NetworkObjects with DestroyWithScene set to false into the active scene if their current scene is unloaded. (#2383)
  • Updated the server to synchronize its local NetworkSceneManager.ClientSynchronizationMode during the initial client synchronization. (#2383)

Fixed

  • Fixed issue where during client synchronization the synchronizing client could receive a ObjectSceneChanged message before the client-side NetworkObject instance had been instantiated and spawned. (#2502)
  • Fixed issue where NetworkAnimator was building client RPC parameters to exclude the host from sending itself messages but was not including it in the ClientRpc parameters. (#2492)
  • Fixed issue where NetworkAnimator was not properly detecting and synchronizing cross fade initiated transitions. (#2481)
  • Fixed issue where NetworkAnimator was not properly synchronizing animation state updates. (#2481)
  • Fixed float NetworkVariables not being rendered properly in the inspector of NetworkObjects. (#2441)
  • Fixed an issue where Named Message Handlers could remove themselves causing an exception when the metrics tried to access the name of the message.(#2426)
  • Fixed registry of public NetworkVariables in derived NetworkBehaviours (#2423)
  • Fixed issue where runtime association of Animator properties to AnimationCurves would cause NetworkAnimator to attempt to update those changes. (#2416)
  • Fixed issue where NetworkAnimator would not check if its associated Animator was valid during serialization and would spam exceptions in the editor console. (#2416)
  • Fixed issue with a child's rotation rolling over when interpolation is enabled on a NetworkTransform. Now using half precision or full quaternion synchronization will always update all axis. (#2388)
  • Fixed issue where NetworkTransform was not setting the teleport flag when the NetworkTransform.InLocalSpace value changed. This issue only impacted NetworkTransform when interpolation was enabled. (#2388)
  • Fixed issue when the NetworkSceneManager.ClientSynchronizationMode is LoadSceneMode.Additive and the server changes the currently active scene prior to a client connecting then upon a client connecting and being synchronized the NetworkSceneManager would clear its internal ScenePlacedObjects list that could already be populated. (#2383)
  • Fixed issue where a client would load duplicate scenes of already preloaded scenes during the initial client synchronization and NetworkSceneManager.ClientSynchronizationMode was set to LoadSceneMode.Additive. (#2383)
