## [1.7.1] - 2023-11-15

### Added

### Fixed

- Fixed a bug where having a class with Rpcs that inherits from a class without Rpcs that inherits from NetworkVariable would cause a compile error. (#2751)
- Fixed issue where `NetworkBehaviour.Synchronize` was not truncating the write buffer if nothing was serialized during `NetworkBehaviour.OnSynchronize` causing an additional 6 bytes to be written per `NetworkBehaviour` component instance. (#2749)
