Major changes

• fix quick state/animation switching of ped - prevents flickering

• new ped AI behavior:

  • peds can hear nearby gunshots and react to them
  • peds react to being under aim of other peds - they will surrender or attack back
  • run away in panic and scream

• upgrade Unity to 2020.3.26

• huge performance and memory optimization for dedicated servers: rendering meshes for world objects are not loaded anymore, therefore not using CPU for mesh conversion and not using memory to store those meshes

• use navigation mesh to move NPCs

  • NPCs will now be able to find path to almost any point on the map

• upgrade Mirror to v66.0.0 - this brings many performance improvements regarding networking

• improve network synchronization of peds, vehicles, and other objects

Full changelog

• destroy player's vehicles when he disconnects

• support changing vehicle's color after vehicle is created, on clients

• assignLastTimeWhenDamaged on clients - peds' healthbar is now visible on clients

• disable labels: current ped state & velocity

• fix quick state/animation switching of ped - prevents flickering

• apply initial velocity to destroyed vehicle parts

• ped AI: ignore Emergency nodes unless they are the only ones connected

• peds react to nearby gun shots

• implement Surrender ped state

• peds react to being under aim of other peds

• implement Panic ped state

• when escaping, peds do not sprint, but run in panic

• add ability to play sound from ped mouth

• upgrade Unity to 2020.3.26

• paths can be calculated between nodes, in background thread

• map window calculates a path to waypoint, with 3 types of path

• water colliders can be generated

• add menu tools in Editor for working with water

• interior waters are offsetted to higher Y position

• add setting to control if rendering meshes are loaded

• huge performance and memory optimization for dedicated servers: rendering meshes for world objects are not loaded anymore, therefore not using CPU for mesh conversion and not using memory to store those meshes

• water faces with 3 vertices are supported

• use navigation mesh to move NPCs

• create MovementAgent script to control Ped based on input from NavMeshAgent

• add script for generating nav mesh from command line

• prefer Vulkan over OpenGL on Linux

• if path to game is not set, and we are running in headless mode, exception will be thrown during loading process

• add navmesh to the project as part of a submodule

• upgrade Mirror to v66.0.0

• add NetworkDiscovery as a submodule

• fix for arm rotating in wrong direction when holding a single-arm weapon

• fix for spawning "yellow chicken" model for every ped, on clients

• improve ragdoll network sync

• when player disconnects, destroy peds spawned by him

• players can be server admins ; add command to authenticate player

• rework Stats: they can output to StringBuilder and also use imGUI

• add "stats" command which shows stats

• don't modify chat messages that are sent from server - messages are sent as they are

• add "cmd_server" command which can run a command as server

• add "say" command which sends a chat message

• use snapshot interpolation for network syncing of transform of peds, vehicles, vehicle's detached parts

• increase interval for detecting dead connections to 20 seconds (was 6)

• change ping sending frequency to 0.5 seconds (was 2)

• change ped & vehicle sync rate to 30 (was 20)

• change vehicle's rigid body interpolation mode on server to Interpolate (was None)

• fix problems with floating-point numbers precision when game uptime is high (eg. 1 month)

  • weapons have normal fire rate now (previously their fire rate was slow (~ 4 bullets per second for AK))

• change ped's input upload rate to 60 (was 30)
