## [1.9.1] - 2024-04-18

### Added
- Added AnticipatedNetworkVariable<T>, which adds support for client anticipation of NetworkVariable values, allowing for more responsive gameplay (#2820)
- Added AnticipatedNetworkTransform, which adds support for client anticipation of NetworkTransforms (#2820)
- Added NetworkVariableBase.ExceedsDirtinessThreshold to allow network variables to throttle updates by only sending updates when the difference between the current and previous values exceeds a threshold. (This is exposed in NetworkVariable<T> with the callback NetworkVariable<T>.CheckExceedsDirtinessThreshold) (#2820)
- Added NetworkVariableUpdateTraits, which add additional throttling support: MinSecondsBetweenUpdates will prevent the NetworkVariable from sending updates more often than the specified time period (even if it exceeds the dirtiness threshold), while MaxSecondsBetweenUpdates will force a dirty NetworkVariable to send an update after the specified time period even if it has not yet exceeded the dirtiness threshold. (#2820)
- Added virtual method NetworkVariableBase.OnInitialize() which can be used by NetworkVariable subclasses to add initialization code (#2820)
- Added virtual method NetworkVariableBase.Update(), which is called once per frame to support behaviors such as interpolation between an anticipated value and an authoritative one. (#2820)
- Added NetworkTime.TickWithPartial, which represents the current tick as a double that includes the fractional/partial tick value. (#2820)
- Added NetworkTickSystem.AnticipationTick, which can be helpful with implementation of client anticipation. This value represents the tick the current local client was at at the beginning of the most recent network round trip, which enables it to correlate server update ticks with the client tick that may have triggered them. (#2820)
- `NetworkVariable` now includes built-in support for `NativeHashSet`, `NativeHashMap`, `List`, `HashSet`, and `Dictionary` (#2813)
- `NetworkVariable` now includes delta compression for collection values (`NativeList`, `NativeArray`, `NativeHashSet`, `NativeHashMap`, `List`, `HashSet`, `Dictionary`, and `FixedString` types) to save bandwidth by only sending the values that changed. (Note: For `NativeList`, `NativeArray`, and `List`, this algorithm works differently than that used in `NetworkList`. This algorithm will use less bandwidth for "set" and "add" operations, but `NetworkList` is more bandwidth-efficient if you are performing frequent "insert" operations.) (#2813)
- `UserNetworkVariableSerialization` now has optional callbacks for `WriteDelta` and `ReadDelta`. If both are provided, they will be used for all serialization operations on NetworkVariables of that type except for the first one for each client. If either is missing, the existing `Write` and `Read` will always be used. (#2813)
- Network variables wrapping `INetworkSerializable` types can perform delta serialization by setting `UserNetworkVariableSerialization<T>.WriteDelta` and `UserNetworkVariableSerialization<T>.ReadDelta` for those types. The built-in `INetworkSerializable` serializer will continue to be used for all other serialization operations, but if those callbacks are set, it will call into them on all but the initial serialization to perform delta serialization. (This could be useful if you have a large struct where most values do not change regularly and you want to send only the fields that did change.) (#2813)

### Fixed

- Fixed issue where NetworkTransformEditor would throw and exception if you excluded the physics package. (#2871)
- Fixed issue where `NetworkTransform` could not properly synchronize its base position when using half float precision. (#2845)
- 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 `NetworkObjectReference` and `NetworkBehaviourReference` to allow null references when constructing and serializing. (#2874)
- Changed `NetworkAnimator` no longer requires the `Animator` component to exist on the same `GameObject`. (#2872)
- 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)
