+## [1.8.1] - 2024-02-05
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Fixed a compile error when compiling for IL2CPP targets when using the new `[Rpc]` attribute. (#2824)
+
+## [1.8.0] - 2023-12-12
+
+### Added
+
+- Added a new RPC attribute, which is simply `Rpc`. (#2762)
+  - This is a generic attribute that can perform the functions of both Server and Client RPCs, as well as enabling client-to-client RPCs. Includes several default targets: `Server`, `NotServer`, `Owner`, `NotOwner`, `Me`, `NotMe`, `ClientsAndHost`, and `Everyone`. Runtime overrides are available for any of these targets, as well as for sending to a specific ID or groups of IDs.
+  - This attribute also includes the ability to defer RPCs that are sent to the local process to the start of the next frame instead of executing them immediately, treating them as if they had gone across the network. The default behavior is to execute immediately.
+  - This attribute effectively replaces `ServerRpc` and `ClientRpc`. `ServerRpc` and `ClientRpc` remain in their existing forms for backward compatibility, but `Rpc` will be the recommended and most supported option.
+- Added `NetworkManager.OnConnectionEvent` as a unified connection event callback to notify clients and servers of all client connections and disconnections within the session (#2762)
+- Added `NetworkManager.ServerIsHost` and `NetworkBehaviour.ServerIsHost` to allow a client to tell if it is connected to a host or to a dedicated server (#2762)
+- Added `SceneEventProgress.SceneManagementNotEnabled` return status to be returned when a `NetworkSceneManager` method is invoked and scene management is not enabled. (#2735)
+- Added `SceneEventProgress.ServerOnlyAction` return status to be returned when a `NetworkSceneManager` method is invoked by a client. (#2735)
+- Added `NetworkObject.InstantiateAndSpawn` and `NetworkSpawnManager.InstantiateAndSpawn` methods to simplify prefab spawning by assuring that the prefab is valid and applies any override prior to instantiating the `GameObject` and spawning the `NetworkObject` instance. (#2710)
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Fixed issue where a client disconnected by a server-host would not receive a local notification. (#2789)
+- Fixed issue where a server-host could shutdown during a relay connection but periodically the transport disconnect message sent to any connected clients could be dropped. (#2789)
+- Fixed issue where a host could disconnect its local client but remain running as a server. (#2789)
+- Fixed issue where `OnClientDisconnectedCallback` was not being invoked under certain conditions. (#2789)
+- Fixed issue where `OnClientDisconnectedCallback` was always returning 0 as the client identifier. (#2789)
+- Fixed issue where if a host or server shutdown while a client owned NetworkObjects (other than the player) it would throw an exception. (#2789)
+- Fixed issue where setting values on a `NetworkVariable` or `NetworkList` within `OnNetworkDespawn` during a shutdown sequence would throw an exception. (#2789)
+- Fixed issue where a teleport state could potentially be overridden by a previous unreliable delta state. (#2777)
+- Fixed issue where `NetworkTransform` was using the `NetworkManager.ServerTime.Tick` as opposed to `NetworkManager.NetworkTickSystem.ServerTime.Tick` during the authoritative side's tick update where it performed a delta state check. (#2777)
+- Fixed issue where a parented in-scene placed NetworkObject would be destroyed upon a client or server exiting a network session but not unloading the original scene in which the NetworkObject was placed. (#2737)
+- Fixed issue where during client synchronization and scene loading, when client synchronization or the scene loading mode are set to `LoadSceneMode.Single`, a `CreateObjectMessage` could be received, processed, and the resultant spawned `NetworkObject` could be instantiated in the client's currently active scene that could, towards the end of the client synchronization or loading process, be unloaded and cause the newly created `NetworkObject` to be destroyed (and throw and exception). (#2735)
+- Fixed issue where a `NetworkTransform` instance with interpolation enabled would result in wide visual motion gaps (stuttering) under above normal latency conditions and a 1-5% or higher packet are drop rate. (#2713)
+- Fixed issue where  you could not have multiple source network prefab overrides targeting the same network prefab as their override. (#2710)
+
+### Changed
+- Changed the server or host shutdown so it will now perform a "soft shutdown" when `NetworkManager.Shutdown` is invoked. This will send a disconnect notification to all connected clients and the server-host will wait for all connected clients to disconnect or timeout after a 5 second period before completing the shutdown process. (#2789)
+- Changed `OnClientDisconnectedCallback` will now return the assigned client identifier on the local client side if the client was approved and assigned one prior to being disconnected. (#2789)
+- Changed `NetworkTransform.SetState` (and related methods) now are cumulative during a fractional tick period and sent on the next pending tick. (#2777)
+- `NetworkManager.ConnectedClientsIds` is now accessible on the client side and will contain the list of all clients in the session, including the host client if the server is operating in host mode (#2762)
+- Changed `NetworkSceneManager` to return a `SceneEventProgress` status and not throw exceptions for methods invoked when scene management is disabled and when a client attempts to access a `NetworkSceneManager` method by a client. (#2735)
+- Changed `NetworkTransform` authoritative instance tick registration so a single `NetworkTransform` specific tick event update will update all authoritative instances to improve perofmance. (#2713)
+- Changed `NetworkPrefabs.OverrideToNetworkPrefab` dictionary is no longer used/populated due to it ending up being related to a regression bug and not allowing more than one override to be assigned to a network prefab asset. (#2710)
+- Changed in-scene placed `NetworkObject`s now store their source network prefab asset's `GlobalObjectIdHash` internally that is used, when scene management is disabled, by clients to spawn the correct prefab even if the `NetworkPrefab` entry has an override. This does not impact dynamically spawning the same prefab which will yield the override on both host and client. (#2710)
+- Changed in-scene placed `NetworkObject`s no longer require a `NetworkPrefab` entry with `GlobalObjectIdHash` override in order for clients to properly synchronize. (#2710)
+- Changed in-scene placed `NetworkObject`s now set their `IsSceneObject` value when generating their `GlobalObjectIdHash` value. (#2710)
+- Changed the default `NetworkConfig.SpawnTimeout` value from 1.0s to 10.0s. (#2710)
+
+## [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)
+
+## [1.7.0] - 2023-10-11
+
+### Added
+
+- exposed NetworkObject.GetNetworkBehaviourAtOrderIndex as a public API (#2724)
+- Added context menu tool that provides users with the ability to quickly update the GlobalObjectIdHash value for all in-scene placed prefab instances that were created prior to adding a NetworkObject component to it. (#2707)
+- Added methods NetworkManager.SetPeerMTU and NetworkManager.GetPeerMTU to be able to set MTU sizes per-peer (#2676)
+- Added `GenerateSerializationForGenericParameterAttribute`, which can be applied to user-created Network Variable types to ensure the codegen generates serialization for the generic types they wrap. (#2694)
+- Added `GenerateSerializationForTypeAttribute`, which can be applied to any class or method to ensure the codegen generates serialization for the specific provided type. (#2694)
+- Exposed `NetworkVariableSerialization<T>.Read`, `NetworkVariableSerialization<T>.Write`, `NetworkVariableSerialization<T>.AreEqual`, and `NetworkVariableSerialization<T>.Duplicate` to further support the creation of user-created network variables by allowing users to access the generated serialization methods and serialize generic types efficiently without boxing. (#2694)
+- Added `NetworkVariableBase.MarkNetworkBehaviourDirty` so that user-created network variable types can mark their containing `NetworkBehaviour` to be processed by the update loop. (#2694)
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Fixed issue where the server side `NetworkSceneManager` instance was not adding the currently active scene to its list of scenes loaded. (#2723)
+- Generic NetworkBehaviour types no longer result in compile errors or runtime errors (#2720)
+- Rpcs within Generic NetworkBehaviour types can now serialize parameters of the class's generic types (but may not have generic types of their own) (#2720)
+- Errors are no longer thrown when entering play mode with domain reload disabled (#2720)
+- NetworkSpawn is now correctly called each time when entering play mode with scene reload disabled (#2720)
+- NetworkVariables of non-integer types will no longer break the inspector (#2714)
+- NetworkVariables with NonSerializedAttribute will not appear in the inspector (#2714)
+- Fixed issue where `UnityTransport` would attempt to establish WebSocket connections even if using UDP/DTLS Relay allocations when the build target was WebGL. This only applied to working in the editor since UDP/DTLS can't work in the browser. (#2695)
+- Fixed issue where a `NetworkBehaviour` component's `OnNetworkDespawn` was not being invoked on the host-server side for an in-scene placed `NetworkObject` when a scene was unloaded (during a scene transition) and the `NetworkBehaviour` component was positioned/ordered before the `NetworkObject` component. (#2685)
+- Fixed issue where `SpawnWithObservers` was not being honored when `NetworkConfig.EnableSceneManagement` was disabled. (#2682)
+- Fixed issue where `NetworkAnimator` was not internally tracking changes to layer weights which prevented proper layer weight synchronization back to the original layer weight value. (#2674)
+- Fixed "writing past the end of the buffer" error when calling ResetDirty() on managed network variables that are larger than 256 bytes when serialized. (#2670)
+- Fixed issue where generation of the `DefaultNetworkPrefabs` asset was not enabled by default. (#2662)
+- Fixed issue where the `GlobalObjectIdHash` value could be updated but the asset not marked as dirty. (#2662)
+- Fixed issue where the `GlobalObjectIdHash` value of a (network) prefab asset could be assigned an incorrect value when editing the prefab in a temporary scene. (#2662)
+- Fixed issue where the `GlobalObjectIdHash` value generated after creating a (network) prefab from an object constructed within the scene would not be the correct final value in a stand alone build. (#2662)
+
+### Changed
+
+- Updated dependency on `com.unity.transport` to version 1.4.0. (#2716)
+
+## [1.6.0] - 2023-08-09
+
+### Added
+
+- Added a protected virtual method `NetworkTransform.OnInitialize(ref NetworkTransformState replicatedState)` that just returns the replicated state reference.
+  
+### Fixed
+
+- Fixed issue where invoking `NetworkManager.Shutdown` within `NetworkManager.OnClientStopped` or `NetworkManager.OnServerStopped` would force `NetworkManager.ShutdownInProgress` to remain true after completing the shutdown process. (#2661)
+- Fixed issue where ARMv7 Android builds would crash when trying to validate the batch header. (#2654)
+- Fixed issue with client synchronization of position when using half precision and the delta position reaches the maximum value and is collapsed on the host prior to being forwarded to the non-owner clients. (#2636)
+- Fixed issue with scale not synchronizing properly depending upon the spawn order of NetworkObjects. (#2636)
+- Fixed issue position was not properly transitioning between ownership changes with an owner authoritative NetworkTransform. (#2636)
+- Fixed issue where a late joining non-owner client could update an owner authoritative NetworkTransform if ownership changed without any updates to position prior to the non-owner client joining. (#2636)
+
+### Changed
+
+## [1.5.2] - 2023-07-24
+
+### Added
+
+### Fixed
+- Bumped minimum Unity version supported to 2021.3 LTS
+- Fixed issue where `NetworkClient.OwnedObjects` was not returning any owned objects due to the `NetworkClient.IsConnected` not being properly set. (#2631)
+- Fixed a crash when calling TrySetParent with a null Transform (#2625)
+- Fixed issue where a `NetworkTransform` using full precision state updates was losing transform state updates when interpolation was enabled. (#2624)
+- Fixed issue where `NetworkObject.SpawnWithObservers` was not being honored for late joining clients. (#2623)
+- Fixed issue where invoking `NetworkManager.Shutdown` multiple times, depending upon the timing, could cause an exception. (#2622)
+- Fixed issue where removing ownership would not notify the server that it gained ownership. This also resolves the issue where an owner authoritative NetworkTransform would not properly initialize upon removing ownership from a remote client. (#2618)
+- Fixed ILPP issues when using CoreCLR and for certain dedicated server builds. (#2614)
+- Fixed an ILPP compile error when creating a generic NetworkBehaviour singleton with a static T instance. (#2603)
+
+### Changed
+
+## [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)
+
+## [1.4.0] - 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.OnInitialize`virtual 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 `NetworkObject`s 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 `NetworkVariable`s in derived `NetworkBehaviour`s (#2423)
+- Fixed issue where runtime association of `Animator` properties to `AnimationCurve`s 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)
+
+## [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 `IsSpawnedObjectsPendingInDontDestroyOnLoad` is only set to true when loading a scene using `LoadSceneMode.Singleonly`. (#2330)
+- 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)
+
+## [1.1.0] - 2022-10-21
+
+### Added
+
+- Added `NetworkManager.IsApproved` flag that is set to `true` a client has been approved.(#2261)
+- `UnityTransport` now provides a way to set the Relay server data directly from the `RelayServerData` structure (provided by the Unity Transport package) throuh its `SetRelayServerData` method. This allows making use of the new APIs in UTP 1.3 that simplify integration of the Relay SDK. (#2235)
+- IPv6 is now supported for direct connections when using `UnityTransport`. (#2232)
+- Added WebSocket support when using UTP 2.0 with `UseWebSockets` property in the `UnityTransport` component of the `NetworkManager` allowing to pick WebSockets for communication. When building for WebGL, this selection happens automatically. (#2201)
+- Added position, rotation, and scale to the `ParentSyncMessage` which provides users the ability to specify the final values on the server-side when `OnNetworkObjectParentChanged` is invoked just before the message is created (when the `Transform` values are applied to the message). (#2146)
+- Added `NetworkObject.TryRemoveParent` method for convenience purposes opposed to having to cast null to either `GameObject` or `NetworkObject`. (#2146)
+
+### Changed
+
+- Updated `UnityTransport` dependency on `com.unity.transport` to 1.3.0. (#2231)
+- The send queues of `UnityTransport` are now dynamically-sized. This means that there shouldn't be any need anymore to tweak the 'Max Send Queue Size' value. In fact, this field is now removed from the inspector and will not be serialized anymore. It is still possible to set it manually using the `MaxSendQueueSize` property, but it is not recommended to do so aside from some specific needs (e.g. limiting the amount of memory used by the send queues in very constrained environments). (#2212)
+- As a consequence of the above change, the `UnityTransport.InitialMaxSendQueueSize` field is now deprecated. There is no default value anymore since send queues are dynamically-sized. (#2212)
+- The debug simulator in `UnityTransport` is now non-deterministic. Its random number generator used to be seeded with a constant value, leading to the same pattern of packet drops, delays, and jitter in every run. (#2196)
+- `NetworkVariable<>` now supports managed `INetworkSerializable` types, as well as other managed types with serialization/deserialization delegates registered to `UserNetworkVariableSerialization<T>.WriteValue` and `UserNetworkVariableSerialization<T>.ReadValue` (#2219)
+- `NetworkVariable<>` and `BufferSerializer<BufferSerializerReader>` now deserialize `INetworkSerializable` types in-place, rather than constructing new ones. (#2219)
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Fixed `NetworkManager.ApprovalTimeout` will not timeout due to slower client synchronization times as it now uses the added `NetworkManager.IsApproved` flag to determined if the client has been approved or not.(#2261)
+- Fixed issue caused when changing ownership of objects hidden to some clients (#2242)
+- Fixed issue where an in-scene placed NetworkObject would not invoke NetworkBehaviour.OnNetworkSpawn if the GameObject was disabled when it was despawned. (#2239)
+- Fixed issue where clients were not rebuilding the `NetworkConfig` hash value for each unique connection request. (#2226)
+- Fixed the issue where player objects were not taking the `DontDestroyWithOwner` property into consideration when a client disconnected. (#2225)
+- Fixed issue where `SceneEventProgress` would not complete if a client late joins while it is still in progress. (#2222)
+- Fixed issue where `SceneEventProgress` would not complete if a client disconnects. (#2222)
+- Fixed issues with detecting if a `SceneEventProgress` has timed out. (#2222)
+- Fixed issue #1924 where `UnityTransport` would fail to restart after a first failure (even if what caused the initial failure was addressed). (#2220)
+- Fixed issue where `NetworkTransform.SetStateServerRpc` and `NetworkTransform.SetStateClientRpc` were not honoring local vs world space settings when applying the position and rotation. (#2203)
+- Fixed ILPP `TypeLoadException` on WebGL on MacOS Editor and potentially other platforms. (#2199)
+- Implicit conversion of NetworkObjectReference to GameObject will now return null instead of throwing an exception if the referenced object could not be found (i.e., was already despawned) (#2158)
+- Fixed warning resulting from a stray NetworkAnimator.meta file (#2153)
+- Fixed Connection Approval Timeout not working client side. (#2164)
+- Fixed issue where the `WorldPositionStays` parenting parameter was not being synchronized with clients. (#2146)
+- Fixed issue where parented in-scene placed `NetworkObject`s would fail for late joining clients. (#2146)
+- Fixed issue where scale was not being synchronized which caused issues with nested parenting and scale when `WorldPositionStays` was true. (#2146)
+- Fixed issue with `NetworkTransform.ApplyTransformToNetworkStateWithInfo` where it was not honoring axis sync settings when `NetworkTransformState.IsTeleportingNextFrame` was true. (#2146)
+- Fixed issue with `NetworkTransform.TryCommitTransformToServer` where it was not honoring the `InLocalSpace` setting. (#2146)
+- Fixed ClientRpcs always reporting in the profiler view as going to all clients, even when limited to a subset of clients by `ClientRpcParams`. (#2144)
+- Fixed RPC codegen failing to choose the correct extension methods for `FastBufferReader` and `FastBufferWriter` when the parameters were a generic type (i.e., List<int>) and extensions for multiple instantiations of that type have been defined (i.e., List<int> and List<string>) (#2142)
+- Fixed the issue where running a server (i.e. not host) the second player would not receive updates (unless a third player joined). (#2127)
+- Fixed issue where late-joining client transition synchronization could fail when more than one transition was occurring.(#2127)
+- Fixed throwing an exception in `OnNetworkUpdate` causing other `OnNetworkUpdate` calls to not be executed. (#1739)
+- Fixed synchronization when Time.timeScale is set to 0. This changes timing update to use unscaled deltatime. Now network updates rate are independent from the local time scale. (#2171)
+- Fixed not sending all NetworkVariables to all clients when a client connects to a server. (#1987)
+- Fixed IsOwner/IsOwnedByServer being wrong on the server after calling RemoveOwnership (#2211)
