DISSONANCE

This release includes two big new features; we've added support for host migration to all networking integrations as well as a totally new preprocessing pipeline which sounds better on all platforms and performs significantly better on mobiles! Check out the lists at the bottom of the page for a list of features, bugfixes and known issues.

The host migration change leads to another quality-of-life change; Dissonance components can now be re-used. Previously you had to ensure that components were deleted when the network session changed; this was not very ergonomic and led to a lot of confusion amongst users. Now that the Dissonance network internally understands that sessions might change it's no longer necessary - feel free to use and re-use components as many times as you like.

The new error handling and host migration system is a breaking change to custom network integrations which use the BaseCommsNetwork class. Please see the documentation for custom network implementations for more detail. Pay particular attention to the generic parameters (TServerParam and TClientParam are new) and the section on the Update method.

With this release we have not released a package for Unity 5.4.4 which is the usual minimum supported target. If you're still using Unity 5.4.4 please Contact us to get the latest update package (and we'll consider including 5.4.4 support in the next release).
