1.7.0

[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)
