## [2.0.0] - 2024-09-12

### Added

- Added tooltips for all of the `NetworkObject` component's properties. (#3052)
- Added message size validation to named and unnamed message sending functions for better error messages. (#3049)
- Added "Check for NetworkObject Component" property to the Multiplayer->Netcode for GameObjects project settings. When disabled, this will bypass the in-editor `NetworkObject` check on `NetworkBehaviour` components. (#3031)
- Added `NetworkTransform.SwitchTransformSpaceWhenParented` property that, when enabled, will handle the world to local, local to world, and local to local transform space transitions when interpolation is enabled. (#3013)
- Added `NetworkTransform.TickSyncChildren` that, when enabled, will tick synchronize nested and/or child `NetworkTransform` components to eliminate any potential visual jittering that could occur if the `NetworkTransform` instances get into a state where their state updates are landing on different network ticks. (#3013)
- Added `NetworkObject.AllowOwnerToParent` property to provide the ability to allow clients to parent owned objects when running in a client-server network topology. (#3013)
- Added `NetworkObject.SyncOwnerTransformWhenParented` property to provide a way to disable applying the server's transform information in the parenting message on the client owner instance which can be useful for owner authoritative motion models. (#3013)
- Added `NetcodeEditorBase` editor helper class to provide easier modification and extension of the SDK's components. (#3013)

### Fixed

- Fixed issue where `NetworkAnimator` would send updates to non-observer clients. (#3057)
- Fixed issue where an exception could occur when receiving a universal RPC for a `NetworkObject` that has been despawned. (#3052)
- Fixed issue where a NetworkObject hidden from a client that is then promoted to be session owner was not being synchronized with newly joining clients.(#3051)
- Fixed issue where clients could have a wrong time delta on `NetworkVariableBase` which could prevent from sending delta state updates. (#3045)
- Fixed issue where setting a prefab hash value during connection approval but not having a player prefab assigned could cause an exception when spawning a player. (#3042)
- Fixed issue where the `NetworkSpawnManager.HandleNetworkObjectShow` could throw an exception if one of the `NetworkObject` components to show was destroyed during the same frame. (#3030)
- Fixed issue where the `NetworkManagerHelper` was continuing to check for hierarchy changes when in play mode. (#3026)
- Fixed issue with newly/late joined clients and `NetworkTransform` synchronization of parented `NetworkObject` instances. (#3013)
- Fixed issue with smooth transitions between transform spaces when interpolation is enabled (requires `NetworkTransform.SwitchTransformSpaceWhenParented` to be enabled). (#3013)

### Changed

- Changed `NetworkTransformEditor` now uses `NetworkTransform` as the base type class to assure it doesn't display a foldout group when using the base `NetworkTransform` component class. (#3052)
- Changed `NetworkAnimator.Awake` is now a protected virtual method. (#3052)
- Changed  when invoking `NetworkManager.ConnectionManager.DisconnectClient` during a distributed authority session a more appropriate message is logged. (#3052)
- Changed `NetworkTransformEditor` so it now derives from `NetcodeEditorBase`. (#3013)
- Changed `NetworkRigidbodyBaseEditor` so it now derives from `NetcodeEditorBase`. (#3013)
- Changed `NetworkManagerEditor` so it now derives from `NetcodeEditorBase`. (#3013)

## [2.0.0-exp.2] - 2024-04-02

### Added
- Added updates to all internal messages to account for a distributed authority network session connection.  (#2863)
- Added `NetworkRigidbodyBase` that provides users with a more customizable network rigidbody, handles both `Rigidbody` and `Rigidbody2D`, and provides an option to make `NetworkTransform` use the rigid body for motion.  (#2863)
  - For a customized `NetworkRigidbodyBase` class:
    - `NetworkRigidbodyBase.AutoUpdateKinematicState` provides control on whether the kinematic setting will be automatically set or not when ownership changes.
    - `NetworkRigidbodyBase.AutoSetKinematicOnDespawn` provides control on whether isKinematic will automatically be set to true when the associated `NetworkObject` is despawned.
    - `NetworkRigidbodyBase.Initialize` is a protected method that, when invoked, will initialize the instance. This includes options to:
      - Set whether using a `RigidbodyTypes.Rigidbody` or `RigidbodyTypes.Rigidbody2D`.
      - Includes additional optional parameters to set the `NetworkTransform`, `Rigidbody`, and `Rigidbody2d` to use.
  - Provides additional public methods:
    - `NetworkRigidbodyBase.GetPosition` to return the position of the `Rigidbody` or `Rigidbody2d` (depending upon its initialized setting).
    - `NetworkRigidbodyBase.GetRotation` to return the rotation of the `Rigidbody` or `Rigidbody2d` (depending upon its initialized setting).
    - `NetworkRigidbodyBase.MovePosition` to move to the position of the `Rigidbody` or `Rigidbody2d` (depending upon its initialized setting).
    - `NetworkRigidbodyBase.MoveRotation` to move to the rotation of the `Rigidbody` or `Rigidbody2d` (depending upon its initialized setting).
    - `NetworkRigidbodyBase.Move` to move to the position and rotation of the `Rigidbody` or `Rigidbody2d` (depending upon its initialized setting).
    - `NetworkRigidbodyBase.Move` to move to the position and rotation of the `Rigidbody` or `Rigidbody2d` (depending upon its initialized setting).
    - `NetworkRigidbodyBase.SetPosition` to set the position of the `Rigidbody` or `Rigidbody2d` (depending upon its initialized setting).
    - `NetworkRigidbodyBase.SetRotation` to set the rotation of the `Rigidbody` or `Rigidbody2d` (depending upon its initialized setting).
    - `NetworkRigidbodyBase.ApplyCurrentTransform` to set the position and rotation of the `Rigidbody` or `Rigidbody2d` based on the associated `GameObject` transform (depending upon its initialized setting).
    - `NetworkRigidbodyBase.WakeIfSleeping` to wake up the rigid body if sleeping.
    - `NetworkRigidbodyBase.SleepRigidbody` to put the rigid body to sleep.
    - `NetworkRigidbodyBase.IsKinematic` to determine if the `Rigidbody` or `Rigidbody2d` (depending upon its initialized setting) is currently kinematic.
    - `NetworkRigidbodyBase.SetIsKinematic` to set the `Rigidbody` or `Rigidbody2d` (depending upon its initialized setting) current kinematic state.
    - `NetworkRigidbodyBase.ResetInterpolation` to reset the `Rigidbody` or `Rigidbody2d` (depending upon its initialized setting) back to its original interpolation value when initialized.
  - Now includes a `MonoBehaviour.FixedUpdate` implementation that will update the assigned `NetworkTransform` when `NetworkRigidbodyBase.UseRigidBodyForMotion` is true. (#2863)
- Added `RigidbodyContactEventManager` that provides a more optimized way to process collision enter and collision stay events as opposed to the `Monobehaviour` approach. (#2863)
  - Can be used in client-server and distributed authority modes, but is particularly useful in distributed authority.
- Added rigid body motion updates to `NetworkTransform` which allows users to set interolation on rigid bodies. (#2863)
  - Extrapolation is only allowed on authoritative instances, but custom class derived from `NetworkRigidbodyBase` or `NetworkRigidbody` or `NetworkRigidbody2D` automatically switches non-authoritative instances to interpolation if set to extrapolation.
- Added distributed authority mode support to `NetworkAnimator`. (#2863)
- Added session mode selection to `NetworkManager` inspector view. (#2863)
- Added distributed authority permissions feature. (#2863)
- Added distributed authority mode specific `NetworkObject` permissions flags (Distributable, Transferable, and RequestRequired). (#2863)
- Added distributed authority mode specific `NetworkObject.SetOwnershipStatus` method that applies one or more `NetworkObject` instance's ownership flags. If updated when spawned, the ownership permission changes are synchronized with the other connected clients. (#2863)
- Added distributed authority mode specific `NetworkObject.RemoveOwnershipStatus` method that removes one or more `NetworkObject` instance's ownership flags. If updated when spawned, the ownership permission changes are synchronized with the other connected clients. (#2863)
- Added distributed authority mode specific `NetworkObject.HasOwnershipStatus` method that will return (true or false) whether one or more ownership flags is set. (#2863)
- Added distributed authority mode specific `NetworkObject.SetOwnershipLock` method that locks ownership of a `NetworkObject` to prevent ownership from changing until the current owner releases the lock. (#2863)
- Added distributed authority mode specific `NetworkObject.RequestOwnership` method that sends an ownership request to the current owner of a spawned `NetworkObject` instance. (#2863)
- Added distributed authority mode specific `NetworkObject.OnOwnershipRequested` callback handler that is invoked on the owner/authoritative side when a non-owner requests ownership. Depending upon the boolean returned value depends upon whether the request is approved or denied. (#2863)
- Added distributed authority mode specific `NetworkObject.OnOwnershipRequestResponse` callback handler that is invoked when a non-owner's request has been processed. This callback includes a `NetworkObjet.OwnershipRequestResponseStatus` response parameter that describes whether the request was approved or the reason why it was not approved. (#2863)
- Added distributed authority mode specific `NetworkObject.DeferDespawn` method that defers the despawning of `NetworkObject` instances on non-authoritative clients based on the tick offset parameter. (#2863)
- Added distributed authority mode specific `NetworkObject.OnDeferredDespawnComplete` callback handler that can be used to further control when deferring the despawning of a `NetworkObject` on non-authoritative instances. (#2863)
- Added `NetworkClient.SessionModeType` as one way to determine the current session mode of the network session a client is connected to. (#2863)
- Added distributed authority mode specific `NetworkClient.IsSessionOwner` property to determine if the current local client is the current session owner of a distributed authority session. (#2863)
- Added distributed authority mode specific client side spawning capabilities. When running in distributed authority mode, clients can instantiate and spawn `NetworkObject` instances (the local client is authomatically the owner of the spawned object). (#2863)
  - This is useful to better visually synchronize owner authoritative motion models and newly spawned `NetworkObject` instances (i.e. projectiles for example).
- Added distributed authority mode specific client side player spawning capabilities. Clients will automatically spawn their associated player object locally. (#2863)
- Added distributed authority mode specific `NetworkConfig.AutoSpawnPlayerPrefabClientSide` property (default is true) to provide control over the automatic spawning of player prefabs on the local client side. (#2863)
- Added distributed authority mode specific `NetworkManager.OnFetchLocalPlayerPrefabToSpawn` callback that, when assigned, will allow the local client to provide the player prefab to be spawned for the local client. (#2863)
  - This is only invoked if the `NetworkConfig.AutoSpawnPlayerPrefabClientSide` property is set to true.
- Added distributed authority mode specific `NetworkBehaviour.HasAuthority` property that determines if the local client has authority over the associated `NetworkObject` instance (typical use case is within a `NetworkBehaviour` script much like that of `IsServer` or `IsClient`). (#2863)
- Added distributed authority mode specific `NetworkBehaviour.IsSessionOwner` property that determines if the local client is the session owner (typical use case would be to determine if the local client can has scene management authority within a `NetworkBehaviour` script). (#2863)
- Added support for distributed authority mode scene management where the currently assigned session owner can start scene events (i.e. scene loading and scene unloading). (#2863)

### Fixed

- Fixed issue where the host was not invoking `OnClientDisconnectCallback` for its own local client when internally shutting down. (#2822)
- Fixed issue where NetworkTransform could potentially attempt to "unregister" a named message prior to it being registered. (#2807)
- Fixed issue where in-scene placed `NetworkObject`s with complex nested children `NetworkObject`s (more than one child in depth) would not synchronize properly if WorldPositionStays was set to true. (#2796)

### Changed
- Changed client side awareness of other clients is now the same as a server or host. (#2863)
- Changed `NetworkManager.ConnectedClients` can now be accessed by both server and clients. (#2863)
- Changed `NetworkManager.ConnectedClientsList` can now be accessed by both server and clients. (#2863)
- Changed `NetworkTransform` defaults to owner authoritative when connected to a distributed authority session. (#2863)
- Changed `NetworkVariable` defaults to owner write and everyone read permissions when connected to a distributed authority session (even if declared with server read or write permissions).  (#2863)
- Changed `NetworkObject` no longer implements the `MonoBehaviour.Update` method in order to determine whether a `NetworkObject` instance has been migrated to a different scene. Instead, only `NetworkObjects` with the `SceneMigrationSynchronization` property set will be updated internally during the `NetworkUpdateStage.PostLateUpdate` by `NetworkManager`. (#2863)
- Changed `NetworkManager` inspector view layout where properties are now organized by category. (#2863)
- Changed `NetworkTransform` to now use `NetworkTransformMessage` as opposed to named messages for NetworkTransformState updates. (#2810)
- Changed `CustomMessageManager` so it no longer attempts to register or "unregister" a null or empty string and will log an error if this condition occurs. (#2807)

## [1.5.1] - 2023-06-07

### Added

- Added support for serializing `NativeArray<>` and `NativeList<>` in `FastBufferReader`/`FastBufferWriter`, `BufferSerializer`, `NetworkVariable`, and RPCs. (To use `NativeList<>`, add `UNITY_NETCODE_NATIVE_COLLECTION_SUPPORT` to your Scripting Define Symbols in `Project Settings > Player`) (#2375)
- The location of the automatically-created default network prefab list can now be configured (#2544)
- Added: Message size limits (max single message and max fragmented message) can now be set using NetworkManager.MaximumTransmissionUnitSize and NetworkManager.MaximumFragmentedMessageSize for transports that don't work with the default values (#2530)
- Added `NetworkObject.SpawnWithObservers` property (default is true) that when set to false will spawn a `NetworkObject` with no observers and will not be spawned on any client until `NetworkObject.NetworkShow` is invoked. (#2568)

### Fixed

- Fixed: Fixed a null reference in codegen in some projects (#2581)
- Fixed issue where the `OnClientDisconnected` client identifier was incorrect after a pending client connection was denied. (#2569)
- Fixed warning "Runtime Network Prefabs was not empty at initialization time." being erroneously logged when no runtime network prefabs had been added (#2565)
- Fixed issue where some temporary debug console logging was left in a merged PR. (#2562)
- Fixed the "Generate Default Network Prefabs List" setting not loading correctly and always reverting to being checked. (#2545)
- Fixed issue where users could not use NetworkSceneManager.VerifySceneBeforeLoading to exclude runtime generated scenes from client synchronization. (#2550)
- Fixed missing value on `NetworkListEvent` for `EventType.RemoveAt` events.  (#2542,#2543)
- Fixed issue where parenting a NetworkTransform under a transform with a scale other than Vector3.one would result in incorrect values on non-authoritative instances. (#2538)
- Fixed issue where a server would include scene migrated and then despawned NetworkObjects to a client that was being synchronized. (#2532)
- Fixed the inspector throwing exceptions when attempting to render `NetworkVariable`s of enum types. (#2529)
- Making a `NetworkVariable` with an `INetworkSerializable` type that doesn't meet the `new()` constraint will now create a compile-time error instead of an editor crash (#2528)
- Fixed Multiplayer Tools package installation docs page link on the NetworkManager popup. (#2526)
- Fixed an exception and error logging when two different objects are shown and hidden on the same frame (#2524)
- Fixed a memory leak in `UnityTransport` that occurred if `StartClient` failed. (#2518)
- Fixed issue where a client could throw an exception if abruptly disconnected from a network session with one or more spawned `NetworkObject`(s). (#2510)
- Fixed issue where invalid endpoint addresses were not being detected and returning false from NGO UnityTransport. (#2496)
- Fixed some errors that could occur if a connection is lost and the loss is detected when attempting to write to the socket. (#2495)

## Changed

- Adding network prefabs before NetworkManager initialization is now supported. (#2565)
- Connecting clients being synchronized now switch to the server's active scene before spawning and synchronizing NetworkObjects. (#2532)
- Updated `UnityTransport` dependency on `com.unity.transport` to 1.3.4. (#2533)
- Improved performance of NetworkBehaviour initialization by replacing reflection when initializing NetworkVariables with compile-time code generation, which should help reduce hitching during additive scene loads. (#2522)

## [1.3.1] - 2023-03-27

### Added

- Added detection and graceful handling of corrupt packets for additional safety. (#2419)

### Changed

- The UTP component UI has been updated to be more user-friendly for new users by adding a simple toggle to switch between local-only (127.0.0.1) and remote (0.0.0.0) binding modes, using the toggle "Allow Remote Connections" (#2408)
- Updated `UnityTransport` dependency on `com.unity.transport` to 1.3.3. (#2450)
- `NetworkShow()` of `NetworkObject`s are delayed until the end of the frame to ensure consistency of delta-driven variables like `NetworkList`.
- Dirty `NetworkObject` are reset at end-of-frame and not at serialization time.
- `NetworkHide()` of an object that was just `NetworkShow()`n produces a warning, as remote clients will _not_ get a spawn/despawn pair.
- Renamed the NetworkTransform.SetState parameter `shouldGhostsInterpolate` to `teleportDisabled` for better clarity of what that parameter does. (#2228)
- Network prefabs are now stored in a ScriptableObject that can be shared between NetworkManagers, and have been exposed for public access. By default, a Default Prefabs List is created that contains all NetworkObject prefabs in the project, and new NetworkManagers will default to using that unless that option is turned off in the Netcode for GameObjects settings. Existing NetworkManagers will maintain their existing lists, which can be migrated to the new format via a button in their inspector. (#2322)

### Fixed

- Fixed issue where changes to a layer's weight would not synchronize unless a state transition was occurring.(#2399)
- Fixed issue where `NetworkManager.LocalClientId` was returning the `NetworkTransport.ServerClientId` as opposed to the `NetworkManager.m_LocalClientId`. (#2398)
- Fixed issue where a dynamically spawned `NetworkObject` parented under an in-scene placed `NetworkObject` would have its `InScenePlaced` value changed to `true`. This would result in a soft synchronization error for late joining clients. (#2396)
- Fixed a UTP test that was failing when you install Unity Transport package 2.0.0 or newer. (#2347)
- Fixed issue where `NetcodeSettingsProvider` would throw an exception in Unity 2020.3.x versions. (#2345)
- Fixed server side issue where, depending upon component ordering, some NetworkBehaviour components might not have their OnNetworkDespawn method invoked if the client side disconnected. (#2323)
- Fixed a case where data corruption could occur when using UnityTransport when reaching a certain level of send throughput. (#2332)
- Fixed an issue in `UnityTransport` where an exception would be thrown if starting a Relay host/server on WebGL. This exception should only be thrown if using direct connections (where WebGL can't act as a host/server). (#2321)
- Fixed `NetworkAnimator` issue where it was not checking for `AnimatorStateTtansition.destinationStateMachine` and any possible sub-states defined within it. (#2309)
- Fixed `NetworkAnimator` issue where the host client was receiving the ClientRpc animation updates when the host was the owner.(#2309)
- Fixed `NetworkAnimator` issue with using pooled objects and when specific properties are cleaned during despawn and destroy.(#2309)
- Fixed issue where `NetworkAnimator` was checking for animation changes when the associated `NetworkObject` was not spawned.(#2309)
- Corrected an issue with the documentation for BufferSerializer (#2401)

## [1.2.0] - 2022-11-21

### Added

- Added protected method `NetworkBehaviour.OnSynchronize` which is invoked during the initial `NetworkObject` synchronization process. This provides users the ability to include custom serialization information that will be applied to the `NetworkBehaviour` prior to the `NetworkObject` being spawned. (#2298)
- Added support for different versions of the SDK to talk to each other in circumstances where changes permit it. Starting with this version and into future versions, patch versions should be compatible as long as the minor version is the same. (#2290)
- Added `NetworkObject` auto-add helper and Multiplayer Tools install reminder settings to Project Settings. (#2285)
- Added `public string DisconnectReason` getter to `NetworkManager` and `string Reason` to `ConnectionApprovalResponse`. Allows connection approval to communicate back a reason. Also added `public void DisconnectClient(ulong clientId, string reason)` allowing setting a disconnection reason, when explicitly disconnecting a client. (#2280)

### Changed

- Changed 3rd-party `XXHash` (32 & 64) implementation with an in-house reimplementation (#2310)
- When `NetworkConfig.EnsureNetworkVariableLengthSafety` is disabled `NetworkVariable` fields do not write the additional `ushort` size value (_which helps to reduce the total synchronization message size_), but when enabled it still writes the additional `ushort` value. (#2298)
- Optimized bandwidth usage by encoding most integer fields using variable-length encoding. (#2276)

### Fixed

- Fixed issue where `NetworkTransform` components nested under a parent with a `NetworkObject` component  (i.e. network prefab) would not have their associated `GameObject`'s transform synchronized. (#2298)
- Fixed issue where `NetworkObject`s that failed to instantiate could cause the entire synchronization pipeline to be disrupted/halted for a connecting client. (#2298)
- Fixed issue where in-scene placed `NetworkObject`s nested under a `GameObject` would be added to the orphaned children list causing continual console warning log messages. (#2298)
- Custom messages are now properly received by the local client when they're sent while running in host mode. (#2296)
- Fixed issue where the host would receive more than one event completed notification when loading or unloading a scene only when no clients were connected. (#2292)
- Fixed an issue in `UnityTransport` where an error would be logged if the 'Use Encryption' flag was enabled with a Relay configuration that used a secure protocol. (#2289)
- Fixed issue where in-scene placed `NetworkObjects` were not honoring the `AutoObjectParentSync` property. (#2281)
- Fixed the issue where `NetworkManager.OnClientConnectedCallback` was being invoked before in-scene placed `NetworkObject`s had been spawned when starting `NetworkManager` as a host. (#2277)
- Creating a `FastBufferReader` with `Allocator.None` will not result in extra memory being allocated for the buffer (since it's owned externally in that scenario). (#2265)

### Removed

- Removed the `NetworkObject` auto-add and Multiplayer Tools install reminder settings from the Menu interface. (#2285)
