2019 Change Log
Mirror uses semantic versioning, and the versions shown here are those that were published to the Asset Store, and occasionally major version bumps happen mid-month between store submissions and are therefore not individually shown here.
- Added: SyncMode selector now works for components on any scene objects owned by a client in addition to the player object, e.g. pets.
- Added: MessageBase now fully supports inheritance.
- Added: Room example now has UI button for host to return all clients to the Room scene and other improvements.
- Fixed: ReplacePlayerForConnection now works for existing scene objects as long as another player doesn't own the targeted object.
- Fixed: isClient and isServer are now true for networked objects in Start and OnStartClient / OnStartServer, respectively.
- Fixed: hasAuthority is now set before OnStartClient and OnStartLocalPlayer are invoked.
- Changed: connectionToClient is now used to assign client authority.
- Changed: In many respects, the Host player acts a lot more like a client and will reveal bugs better.
- Changed: ReplacePlayerForConnection now has an optional bool to retain authority of the previous object (default = false).
- Removed:
NetworkServer.SpawnWithClientAuthorityis deprecated in favor of overloads ofNetworkServer.Spawn.
- Added: SyncList and SyncSet custom Equality Comparer support.
- Added: Custom serializers may be implemented for any type in Cmd's and Rpc's.

- Fixed: SyncList, SyncDictionary and SyncSet now use a custom IEnumerator to avoid memory allocation.
- Fixed: sceneID is no longer reset in certain cases when editing a prefab.
- Changed: PreprocessorDefine code moved to CompilerSymbols folder to avoid paradox of missing symbols preventing the symbols being added to the project.

- Changed: Commands no longer bypass serialization for Host player, making debugging easier.
- Changed: Local connections now maintain their own message queue.
- Changed: Transport.Available is now abstract.
