Release Notes for v0.0.2

🎮 New Features

Network Layer (Major Addition)

• ServerNetwork & ClientNetwork: Complete transport-agnostic client/server abstractions for multiplayer games

  • Per-peer snapshot registries for fog of war and interest management
  • Built-in heartbeat mechanism for connection health monitoring
  • Automatic bandwidth optimization through delta detection
  • Transport-agnostic design (works with WebSocket, WebRTC, UDP, etc.)

• Transport Adapters:

  • BunWebSocketServerTransport: Production-ready Bun WebSocket server adapter
  • BrowserWebSocketClientTransport: Browser WebSocket client adapter
  • Pluggable transport interface for custom implementations

• Multiplayer Game Example: Complete working example demonstrating:

  • Client-side prediction with server reconciliation
  • Binary protocol with efficient encoding
  • Multiple concurrent players
  • Fixed tick rate simulation (20 TPS)

Protocol Enhancements

• defineIntent Helper: Type-safe intent definition with automatic codec generation
• Intent Change Detection: Automatic optimization to only send changed intents, reducing bandwidth
• Client Tick Tracking: Server tracks client tick for accurate reconciliation
• Global Intent Handlers: Server-side handlers for processing client intents

Codec Improvements

• Array Support: PooledCodec.array() for efficient snapshot encoding of collections
• Zero-Copy Operations: calculateSize() and encodeInto() methods for minimal allocations
• Enhanced SnapshotRegistry: Zero-copy encoding and decoding support

📝 Documentation

• Updated README with Network Layer section
• Comprehensive Network Layer Documentation
• Complete Multiplayer Game Example with tutorial
