[x.y.z] - Unreleased

[0.11.0] - 2020-09-03

Breaking changes:

• We no longer support Unreal Engine version 4.23. We recommend that you upgrade to the newest version 4.25 to continue receiving updates. See Unreal Engine Version Support for more information on versions. Follow the instructions in Update your GDK to update to 4.25.
• We have removed multi-worker settings from the SpatialWorldSettings properties and added them to a new class USpatialMultiWorkerSettings. To update your project, create a derived USpatialMultiWorkerSettings class mimicking your previous configuration. Then, in your level’s World settings, select that class as the Multi-worker settings class property.
• The -nocompile flag used with Buildworker.bat is now split into two. Use the following flags:
  • -nobuild to skip building the game binaries.
  • -nocompile to skip compiling the automation scripts.
• Updated the simulated player worker configuration. Instead of using connect.to.spatialos to indicate that you want to connect to a cloud deployment, we now use 127.0.0.1 to ensure that an address resolves when a connection initializes. The passed IP address is not used when connecting to a cloud deployment.
• The SpatialMetrics::WorkerMetricsUpdated function is no longer static and the function signature now receives histogram metrics.

New known issues:

• The Use RPC Ring Buffers option in SpatialOS GDK for Unreal > Runtime Settings is required when using multi-worker configurations, but is not currently enforced.

Features:

• You can now use the new GDK editor setting Stop local deployment on stop play in editor to automatically stop a deployment when you stop playing in the Editor.
• Added a checkbox Connect local server worker to the cloud deployment to the SpatialOS Editor Settings. This controls whether you start and connect a local server-worker instance to the cloud deployment, when Connect to cloud deployment is enabled.
• You can now suppress RPC warnings of the form Executed RPC <RPCName> with unresolved references, by RPC type. To do this, use the new SpatialGDKsetting RPCTypeAllowUnresolvedParamMap.
• Decoupled QueuedIncomingRPCWaitTime from reprocessing flush time by adding a new parameter QueuedIncomingRPCRetryTime (default value 1.0s). This enables you to independently control how long to wait for queued RPCs to resolve parameters, and how frequently to check whether parameters are resolved.
• Command-line arguments are now only available by default in non-shipping builds. To enable them in a shipping build, use the target rule bEnableSpatialCmdlineInShipping.
• Dynamic worker flags are now supported with the Standard Runtime variant.
• Dynamic worker flags now enable faster startup for simulated player deployments started with the DeploymentLauncher. DeploymentLauncher createsim now includes a boolean argument auto-connect. This enables you to automatically connect your sim players to your deployment when it is ready.

Bug fixes:

• The example worker configuration for the simulated player coordinator is now compatible with the authentication flow.
• The Cloud Deployment Name field in the Start Deployment drop-down menu and the Deployment name in the Cloud Deployment Configuration window now refer to the same property. The Start Deployment toolbar button now uses the name specified in the drop-down menu.
• The Local Deployment IP and Cloud Deployment Name labels in the Start Deployment drop-down menu are now grayed out correctly when the edit box is disabled.
• Entering an invalid IP into the Exposed local runtime IP address field in the Editor Settings now triggers a warning pop-up and resets the value to an empty string.
• Fixed a bug that caused this error: ResolveObjectReferences: Removed unresolved reference: AbsOffset >= MaxAbsOffset.
• When GridBasedLBStrategy can't locate a worker instance to take authority over an Actor, it now logs an error that includes Position.
• The SpatialGDKsetting bEnableMultiWorker is now private, to enforce the use of IsMultiWorkerEnabled which respects the -OverrideMultiWorker flag.
• When the SpatialStatics::GetActorEntityId function is passed a nullptr, it now returns SpatialConstants::INVALID_ENTITY_ID.
• Removed the EditorWorkerController class. It is no longer required for running consecutive PIE sessions.
• Fixed a crash that occurred when overflowed RPCs remained overflowed after a flush attempt.
• Fixed a crash that sometimes occurred after performing server travel with ring buffers enabled.

[0.11.0] 中文版更新日志

重大变化：

• 我们不再维护虚幻引擎 4.23 版本。建议您升级至最新版本 4.25 以继续接收更新，按照 更新 GDK 的操作步骤即可更新至 4.25 版本。注：更多版本相关信息，请参见虚幻引擎版本控制方案。
• 多 worker 设置已从 SpatialWorldSettings 属性中删除，并添加至一个新的类 USpatialMultiWorkerSettings。为更新项目，请您创建一个派生的 USpatialMultiWorkerSettings 类，以模仿您之前的配置。然后在关卡的 World Settings 中，选择该类作为 Multi-worker settings class 属性。
• Buildworker.bat 所使用的 -nocompile 标记现已拆分为二，分别如下：
  • -nobuild 用于跳过构建游戏二进制文件。
  • -nocompile 用于跳过编译自动化脚本。
• 模拟玩家 worker 配置已更新。我们现在使用 127.0.0.1 来确保在连接初始化时解析地址，而不是使用 connect.to.spatialos 来表示您想要连接到云部署。连接到云部署时，不会使用已传递的 IP 地址。
• SpatialMetrics::WorkerMetricsUpdated 函数不再为静态，并且函数签名现在接收直方图指标。

已知问题：

• 使用多 worker 配置时，要求选择 Use RPC Ring Buffers (位于：SpatialOS 虚幻引擎 GDK > Runtime Settings)，但目前没有强制执行。

功能介绍：

• 现在您可以使用 GDK 编辑器的新设置 Stop local deployment on stop play in editor，在您停止“在编辑器中运行”(PIE) 时自动停止部署。
• 在 SpatialOS Editor Settings 中添加了 Connect local server worker to the cloud deployment 复选框。在启用 Connect to cloud deployment 后，这将用于控制您是否启动并将本地服务端 worker 实例连接至云部署。
• 现在您可以按照 RPC 类型，来抑制 Executed RPC <RPCName> with unresolved references 形式的 RPC 警告。请使用新的 SpatialGDKsetting RPCTypeAllowUnresolvedParamMap 进行操作。
• 通过添加新的参数 QueuedIncomingRPCRetryTime (默认值为 1.0s)，您可以独立控制排队 RPC 解析参数的等待时间 (QueuedIncomingRPCWaitTime)，以及检查参数是否已经解析的频率 (QueuedIncomingRPCRetryTime)。
• 命令行参数现仅在非交付构建版本中默认可用。为在交付构建版本中启用这些参数，请使用目标规则 bEnableSpatialCmdlineInShipping。
• 标准体 (Standard) 运行时变体现支持动态 worker 标记。
• 动态 worker 标记现支持更快地启动用 DeploymentLauncher 开始的模拟玩家部署。DeploymentLauncher createsim 现包括布尔参数 auto-connect。这使您能够在部署就绪时自动将模拟玩家连接至部署。

问题修复：

• 模拟玩家协调器的示例 worker 配置现在已与身份验证流兼容。
• Start Deployment 下拉菜单中的 Cloud Deployment Name 字段，以及 Cloud Deployment Configuration 窗口中的 Deployment name 字段，现在指的是同一个属性。Start Deployment 工具栏按钮现在使用下拉菜单中指定的名称。
• Start Deployment 下拉菜单中的 Local Deployment IP、Cloud Deployment Name 标签，当编辑框禁用时，其颜色会相应变灰。
• 在 Editor Settings 中的 Exposed local runtime IP address 字段内输入无效 IP 后，现会触发警告弹窗并将值重设为空字符串。
• 修复了导致以下错误的问题： ResolveObjectReferences: Removed unresolved reference: AbsOffset >= MaxAbsOffset。
• 当 GridBasedLBStrategy 无法定位对一个 Actor 具有管辖权的 worker 实例，现会记录包含 Position 的错误。
• SpatialGDKsetting bEnableMultiWorker 现为私有变量，来保证通过 -OverrideMultiWorker 标记来设置 IsMultiWorkerEnabled。
• 当 SpatialStatics::GetActorEntityId 函数传入 nullptr 时，现会返回 SpatialConstants::INVALID_ENTITY_ID。
• 删除了 EditorWorkerController 类 (运行连续性 PIE 会话时不再需要此类)。
• 修复一项崩溃：之前在尝试刷新后，溢出 RPC 会保持溢出状态。
• 修复一项崩溃：之前在启用 ring buffer 来执行服务器穿梭后，有时会发生崩溃。

[0.10.0] - 2020-07-08

New Known Issues:

• Replicated properties that use the COND_SkipOwner replication condition can still replicate in the first few frames of an Actor becoming owned.
• Microsoft have fixed a defect in MSVC that previously caused errors when building Unreal Engine. We documented a workaround for this issue in GDK version 0.7.0-preview. If you set up the GDK on your computer between the release of 0.7.0 and 0.10.0, you have performed this workaround, which is no longer necessary. To undo this workaround, follow these steps:

1. Open Visual Studio Installer.
2. Select Modify on your Visual Studio 2019 installation.
3. In the Installation details section, clear all the checkboxes for workloads and components except Visual Studio Code editor.
4. In the Workloads tab, select the following items:

• Universal Windows Platform development
• .NET desktop development (You must also select the .NET Framework 4.6.2 development tools.)
• Desktop development with C++

5. Select Modify to confirm your changes.

Breaking Changes:

• We've deprecated the preview branches. We now only release the GDK to the release branch, which is fully tested, stable, and documented. If you have the preview branches checked out, you must check out release to receive the latest changes.
• The SpatialOS Runtime Standard variant requires the latest version of the SpatialOS CLI. Run spatial update to get the latest version.
• Old snapshots are incompatible with version 0.10 of the GDK. You must generate new snapshots after upgrading to 0.10.
• The old Inspector is incompatible with the SpatialOS Runtime Standard variant. The Standard variant uses the new Inspector by default.
• We’ve removed Singleton as a class specifier, and you need to remove your uses of it. You can achieve the behavior of former Singleton Actors by ensuring that your Actor is spawned once by a single server-worker instance in your deployment.
• We’ve renamed OnConnected and OnConnectionFailed (on SpatialGameInstance) to OnSpatialConnected and OnSpatialConnectionFailed. They are now also Blueprint-assignable.
• The GenerateSchema and GenerateSchemaAndSnapshots commandlets do not generate schema any more. We’ve deprecated them in favor of CookAndGenerateSchemaCommandlet. (GenerateSchemaAndSnapshots still works if you use the -SkipSchema option.)
• We’ve combined the settings for offloading and load balancing and moved them from the Editor and Runtime Settings to be per map in the World Settings. For more information, see the offloading tutorial.
• We’ve removed the command-line arguments OverrideSpatialOffloading and OverrideLoadBalancer, and GDK load balancing is always enabled. To override a map's Enable Multi Worker setting, use the command-line flag OverrideMultiWorker.
• It is now mandatory to run a deployment with result types (previously result types were enabled by default). We’ve removed the Runtime setting bEnableResultTypes to reflect this.
• Whether an Actor is offloaded depends on whether the root owner of that Actor is offloaded. This might affect you if you're using functions such as IsActorGroupOwnerForActor.
• We’ve removed QueuedOutgoingRPCWaitTime. All RPC failure cases are now correctly queued or dropped.
• We’ve removed Max connection capacity limit and Login rate limit from the generated worker configuration file, because we no longer support them.
• We no longer support secure worker connections when you run your game within the Unreal Editor. We still support secure worker connections for packaged builds.

Features:

• The GDK now uses the SpatialOS Worker SDK version 14.6.1.
• Added support for the SpatialOS Runtime Standard variant, version 0.4.3.
• Added support for the SpatialOS Runtime Compatibility Mode variant, version 14.5.4.
• Added a new drop-down menu in Editor Settings so that you can select which SpatialOS Runtime variant to use. The two variants are Standard and Compatibility Mode. For Windows users, Standard is the default, but you can use Compatibility Mode if you experience networking issues when you upgrade to the latest GDK version. For macOS users, Compatibility Mode is the default, and you can’t use Standard. For more information, see Runtime variants.
• Added new default game templates. Your default game template depends on the SpatialOS Runtime variant that you have selected, and on your primary deployment region.
• The SpatialOS Runtime Standard variant uses the new Inspector by default, and is incompatible with the old Inspector. (The Compatibility Mode variant uses the old Inspector by default, and is incompatible with the new Inspector.)
• The Example Project has a new default game mode: Control. This game mode replaces Deathmatch. In Control, two teams compete to capture control points on the map. NPCs guard the control points, and if you capture an NPC’s control point, then the NPC joins your team.
• You can now generate valid schema for classes that start with a leading digit. The generated schema classes are prefixed with ZZ internally.
• Handover properties are now automatically replicated when this is required for load balancing. bEnableHandover is off by default.
• Added OnSpatialPlayerSpawnFailed delegate to SpatialGameInstance. This is useful if you have established a successful connection from the client-worker instance to the SpatialOS Runtime, but the server-worker instance crashed.
• Added bWorkerFlushAfterOutgoingNetworkOp (default false) which sends RPCs and property replication changes over the network immediately, to allow for lower latencies. You can use this with bRunSpatialWorkerConnectionOnGameThread to achieve the lowest available latency at a trade-off with bandwidth.
• You can now edit the project name field in the Cloud Deployment Configuration dialog box. Changes that you make here are reflected in your project's spatialos.json file.
• You now define worker types in Runtime Settings.
• Local deployments now use the map's load balancing strategy to get the launch configuration settings. The launch configuration file is saved per map in the Intermediate/Improbable folder.
• Added a Launch Configuration Editor under the Cloud toolbar button.
• In the Cloud Deployment Configuration dialog box you can now generate a launch configuration file from the current map, or you can click through to the Launch Configuration Editor.
• You can now specify worker load in game logic by using SpatialMetrics::SetWorkerLoadDelegate.
• You can now specify deployment tags in the Cloud Deployment Configuration dialog box.
• You can now execute RPCs that were declared in a UInterface. Previously, this caused a runtime assertion.
• Full Scan schema generation now uses the CookAndGenerateSchema commandlet, which results in faster and more stable schema generation for big projects.
• Added an Open Deployment Page button to the Cloud Deployment Configuration dialog box.
• The Start Deployment button in the Cloud Deployment Configuration dialog box now generates schema and a snapshot, builds all selected workers, and uploads the assembly before starting the deployment. There are checkboxes so that you can choose whether to generate schema and a snapshot, and whether to build the game client and add simulated players.
• When you start a cloud deployment from the Unreal Editor, the cloud deployment now automatically has the dev_login deployment tag.
• Several command-line parameter changes:
  • Renamed the enableProtocolLogging command-line parameter to enableWorkerSDKProtocolLogging.
  • Added a parameter named enableWorkerSDKOpLogging so that you can log user-level ops.
  • Renamed the protocolLoggingPrefix parameter to workerSDKLogPrefix. This prefix is used for both protocol logging and op logging.
  • Added a parameter named workerSDKLogLevel that takes the arguments debug, info, warning, and error.
  • Added a parameter named workerSDKLogFileSize to control the maximum file size of the Worker SDK log file.
• The icon on the Start Deployment toolbar button now changes depending on the connection flow that you select.
• Created a new drop-down menu in the GDK toolbar. You can use it to configure how to connect your PIE client or your Launch on Device client:
  • Choose between Connect to a local deployment and Connect to a cloud deployment to specify the flow that the client should automatically use when you select Play or Launch.
  • Added the Local Deployment IP field to specify which local deployment the client should connect to. By default, the IP is 127.0.0.1.
  • Added the Cloud deployment name field to specify which cloud deployment the client should connect to. If you select Connect to cloud deployment but you don’t specify a cloud deployment, the client tries to connect to the first running deployment that has the dev_login deployment tag.
  • Added the Editor Settings field so that you can quickly access the SpatialOS Editor Settings.
• Added the Build Client Worker and Build Simulated Player checkboxes to the Connection drop-down menu, so that you can quickly choose whether to build and include the client-worker instance and simulated player worker instance in the assembly.
• Updated the GDK toolbar icons.
• When you specify a URL to connect a client to a deployment using the Receptionist, the URL port option is now respected. - --- However, in certain circumstances, the initial connection attempt uses the -receptionistPort command-line argument.
• When you run BuildWorker.bat with client, this now builds the client target of your project.
• When you change the project name in the Cloud Deployment Configuration dialog box, this automatically regenerates the development authentication token.
• Changed the names of the following toolbar buttons:
  • Start is now called Start Deployment
  • Deploy is now called Cloud
• Marked all the required fields in the Cloud Deployment Configuration dialog box with asterisks.
• You can now change the project name in Editor Settings.
• Replaced the Generate from current map button in the Cloud Deployment Configuration dialog box with a checkbox labelled Automatically Generate Launch Configuration. If you select this checkbox, the GDK generates an up-to-date launch configuration file from the current map when you select Start Deployment.
• Android and iOS are now in preview. We support workflows for developing and doing in-studio playtests on Android and iOS devices, and have documentation for these workflows. We also support macOS (also in preview) for developing and testing iOS game clients.

Bug fixes:

• Fixed a problem that caused load balanced cloud deployments to fail to start while under heavy load.
• Fix to avoid using packages that are still being processed in the asynchronous loading thread.
• Fixed a bug that sometimes caused GDK setup scripts to fail to unzip dependencies.
• Fixed a bug where RPCs that were called before calling the CreateEntityRequest were not processed as early as possible in the RPC ring buffer system, resulting in startup delays on the client.
• Fixed a crash that occurred when running a game with nullrhi and using SpatialDebugger.
• When you use a URL with options in the command line, we now parse the Receptionist parameters correctly, using the URL if necessary.
• Fixed a bug that occurred when creating multiple dynamic subobjects at the same time, and caused them to fail to be created on clients.
• OwnerOnly components are now properly replicated when a worker instance gains authority over an Actor. Previously, they were sometimes only replicated when a value on them changed (after the worker instance had already gained authority).
• Fixed a rare server crash that could occur when closing an Actor channel immediately after attaching a dynamic subobject to that Actor.
• Fixed a defect in InstallGDK.bat that sometimes caused it to incorrectly report Error: Could not clone… when repositories were cloned correctly.
• Actors from the same ownership hierarchy are now handled together when they are load balanced.

SpatialOS tooling compatibility:

If you are using the Standard Runtime variant, note the following compatibility issues:

• The old Inspector won’t work. You must use the new Inspector instead.
• In the Platform SDK in C#, you can’t set capacity limits or use the remote interaction service. You also can’t use the Platform SDK to take snapshots of cloud deployments, but we’ll fix this snapshot issue in a future release.
• You can't generate a snapshot of a cloud deployment. We'll fix this in a future release.
• In the CLI, the following commands don’t work:
  • spatial local worker replace
  • spatial project deployment worker replace
  • spatial local worker-flag set
  • spatial project deployment worker-flag delete
  • spatial project deployment worker-flag set
  • spatial cloud runtime flags set (We’ll improve debug tooling and add functionality to dynamically change worker flag values in future releases.)

If you need any of the functionality mentioned above, change your Runtime variant to Compatibility Mode.

Internal:

Features listed in this section are not ready to use. However, in the spirit of open development, we record every change that we make to the GDK.

• The SpatialOS GDK for Unreal is now released automatically using Buildkite CI. This should result in more frequent releases.
• Improbable now measures the non-functional characteristics of the GDK in Buildkite CI. This enables us to reason about and improve these characteristics. We track them as non-functional requirements (NFRs).

[0.10.0] 中文版更新日志

已知问题

• 使用 COND_SkipOwner 复制条件的复制属性在 Actor 成为所属的前几帧中仍然可以复制。
• Microsoft 已修复 MSVC 中导致构建虚幻引擎时出错的一个缺陷。我们在 GDK 版本 0.7.0-preview 中记录了此问题的解决方法。如果您在计算机上设置的 GDK 版本介于 0.7.0 和 0.10.0 之间，那么您已经应用此解决方法，但该解决方法不再需要。要撤销此解决方法，完成以下步骤：

1. 打开 Visual Studio Installer。
2. 在您安装的 Visual Studio 2019 中，点击 Modify。
3. 在 Installation details 区域, 清空所有工作负载和组件的复选框 (除了 Visual Studio Code editor)。
4. 在 Workloads 选项卡，选中以下内容：
   • Universal Windows Platform development
   • .NET desktop development (您必须同时勾选 .NET Framework 4.6.2 development tools)
   • Desktop development with C++
5. 点击 Modify 确认更改。

重大变化

• 我们已经弃用了 preview 分支。现在，我们仅将 GDK 发布到 release 分支，该分支经全面测试、性能稳定且有相关文档。如果您检出了 preview 分支，那么必须检出 release 以接收最新更改。
• SpatialOS 运行时标准体 (Standard) 需要最新版本的 SpatialOS CLI。运行 spatial update 以获取最新版本。
• 旧快照与 GDK 的 0.10 版本不兼容。升级到 0.10 版本后，您必须生成新的快照。
• 旧的 Inspector 与 SpatialOS 运行时标准体不兼容。默认情况下，标准体使用新的 Inspector。
• 我们已经移除 Singleton 作为类说明符，您也需要删除对它的使用。要实现以前的 Singleton Actor 的行为，确保您的 Actor 仅由部署中的单个服务端 worker 实例生成一次。
• 我们已将 SpatialGameInstance 上的 OnConnected 和 OnConnectionFailed 重命名为 OnSpatialConnected 和 OnSpatialConnectionFailed。它们现在也可以分配给蓝图。
• GenerateSchema 和 GenerateSchemaAndSnapshots 命令行开关不再生成结构描述 (schema)。我们已弃用它们，推荐您使用 CookAndGenerateSchemaCommandlet。如果您使用 -SkipSchema 选项， GenerateSchemaAndSnapshots 仍然有效。
• 我们合并了负载拆分和负载均衡设置，并将它们从 Editor 和 Runtime Settings 面板中移到了 World Settings 中的每个地图上。更多信息，查看 负载拆分教程。
• 我们已经删除了命令行参数 OverrideSpatialOffloading 和 OverrideLoadBalancer，并且 GDK 负载均衡始终处于启用状态。要覆盖地图上的 “Enable Multi Worker 设置，使用命令行标记 OverrideMultiWorker。
• 现在必须使用结果类型 (此前默认已启用结果类型 - result types) 运行部署。我们已删除运行时设置 bEnableResultTypes 以反映这一点。
• 某 Actor 是否已负载拆分取决于该 Actor 的根所有者 (root owner) 是否已负载拆分。如果您使用的是例如 IsActorGroupOwnerForActor 的函数，这可能会影响您。
• 我们删除了 QueuedOutgoingRPCWaitTime。现在，所有 RPC 故障案例都已正确队列或丢弃。
• 我们已从生成的 worker 配置文件中删除了 Max connection capacity limit 和 Login rate limit，因为我们不再支持它们。
• 我们不再支持在虚幻编辑器中运行游戏时安全的 worker 连接。我们仍然支持打包构建时安全的 worker 连接。

功能介绍

• GDK 现使用 SpatialOS Worker SDK 版本 14.6.1。
• 支持 SpatialOS 运行时 标准体, 0.4.3 版本。
• 支持 SpatialOS 运行时 兼容模式，14.5.4 版本。
• 在 Editor Settings 面板中添加一个新的下拉菜单，因此您可以选择使用哪个 SpatialOS 运行时变体。有两个变体可选：标准体和兼容模式。对于 Windows 用户，默认情况下使用标准体，但当您升级到最新 GDK 版本时如果遇到网络问题，您可以使用兼容模式。对于 macOS 用户，默认情况下使用兼容模式，并且您无法使用标准体。更多信息，查看 运行时变体.
• 添加新的默认游戏模板。您的默认游戏模板取决于您选择的 SpatialOS 运行时变体以及您的主要部署地区。
• 默认情况下， SpatialOS 运行时标准使用新的 Inspector，并且与旧的 Inspector 不兼容；默认情况下，“兼容模式”变体使用旧的 Inspector，并且与新的 Inspector 不兼容。
• 示例项目具有一个新的默认游戏模式：控制。该游戏模式取代了死亡竞赛。在 “控制” 中，两个团队竞争以占领地图上的控制点。 NPC 保护控制点，如果您占领 NPC 的控制点，那么 NPC 就会加入您的团队。
• 您现在可以为开头是数字的类生成有效的结构描述。生成的结构描述类在内部以 ZZ 作为前缀。
• Handover properties are now automatically replicated when this is required for load balancing. bEnableHandover is off by default. 当负载均衡需要时，迁移属性现在会自动迁移复制。默认情况下，bEnableHandover 关闭。
• 在 SpatialGameInstance 中添加 OnSpatialPlayerSpawnFailed 委托。如果您已成功建立从客户端 worker 实例到 SpatialOS 运行时的连接，但服务端 worker 实例崩溃时，这将很有用。
• 添加 bWorkerFlushAfterOutgoingNetworkOp (默认为 false)，可立即通过网络发送 RPC 和属性复制更改，以降低延迟。您可以将其与 bRunSpatialWorkerConnectionOnGameThread 结合使用，以权衡带宽而获得最低的可用延迟。
• 您现在可以在 Cloud Deployment Configuration 对话框中编辑项目名称字段。您在此处所做的更改将反映在项目的 spatialos.json 文件中。
• 您现在可以在 Runtime Settings 面板中定义 worker 类型。
• 本地部署现在使用地图的负载均衡策略来获取启动配置设置。每个地图的启动配置文件都保存在 Intermediate/Improbable 文件夹中。

• 在 Cloud Deployment Configuration 对话框中添加 Open Deployment Page 按钮。
• Cloud Deployment Configuration 对话框中的 Start Deployment 按钮现在会生成结构描述和快照，并且在部署启动前构建所有选定的 worker 和上传程序集。提供了复选框，您可以选择是否生成结构描述和快照，以及是否构建游戏客户端和添加模拟玩家。
• 在虚幻编辑器启动云部署时，云部署现在会自动具有 dev_login 部署标签。
• 几个命令行参数更改：
  • 将 enableProtocolLogging 命令行参数重命名为 enableWorkerSDKProtocolLogging。
  • 添加一个名为 enableWorkerSDKOpLogging 的参数，因而您可以记录用户级别操作日志。
  • 将 protocolLoggingPrefix 参数重命名为 workerSDKLogPrefix。该前缀同时用于协议日志和操作日志。
  • 添加一个名为 workerSDKLogLevel 的参数，该参数带有参数 debug、info、warning 和 error。
  • 添加一个名为 workerSDKLogFileSize 的参数，以控制 Worker SDK 日志文件的最大文件大小。
• Start Deployment 工具栏按钮上的图标现在会根据您选择的连接工作流而变化。
• 在 GDK 工具栏中创建一个新的下拉菜单，用来配置如何连接您的 PIE 客户端或是设备上启动的客户端：
  • 在 Connect to a local deployment 和 Connect to a cloud deployment 之间进行选择，以指定在选择 Play 或 Launch 时客户端应自动使用的流。
  • 添加 Local Deployment IP 字段，以指定客户端应连接到的本地部署。默认情况下，IP为 127.0.0.1。
  • 添加 Cloud deployment name 字段，以指定客户端应连接到的云部署。如果选择 Connect to cloud deployment，但未指定云部署，则客户端将尝试连接到第一个运行中具有 dev_login 部署标签的部署。
  • 添加 Editor Settings 字段，以便您可以快速访问 SpatialOS Editor Settings 面板。
• 在 Connection 下拉菜单中添加 Build Client Worker 和 Build Simulated Player 复选框，以便您可以快速选择是否要构建并在程序集中包括客户端 worker 实例和模拟玩家 worker 实例。
• 更新 GDK 工具栏图标。
• 当您指定一个 URL 来通过 Receptionist 将客户端连接到部署时，现在会使用该 URL 端口选项。但是，在某些情况下，初始连接尝试使用 -receptionistPort 命令行参数。
• 现在，当您使用 client 运行 BuildWorker.bat 时，这将构建您项目的客户端目标。
• 当您在 Cloud Deployment Configuration 对话框中更改项目名称时，这将自动重新生成开发身份验证令牌。
• 更改了以下工具栏按钮的名称：
  • Start 现改名为 Start Deployment
  • Deploy 现改名为 Cloud
• 在 Cloud Deployment Configuration 对话框中，用星号标记所有必填项。
• 您现在可以在 Editor Settings 面板中更改项目名称。
• 将 Cloud Deployment Configuration 对话框中的 Generate from current map 按钮替换为一个标记为 Automatically Generate Launch Configuration 的复选框。如果选中此框，当您点击 Start Deployment 时，GDK 会从当前地图生成最新的启动配置文件。
• Android 和 iOS 现处于预览状态。我们支持在 Android 和 iOS 设备上进行游戏开发和工作室内测试的工作流，并提供工作流的相关文档。我们还支持在 macOS (也在预览中) 计算机上开发和测试 iOS 游戏客户端。

问题修复

• 修复导致负载均衡的云部署在高负载下无法启动的问题。
• 进行修复，以避免使用仍在异步加载线程中处理的包。
• 修复有时导致 GDK 安装脚本无法解压缩依赖项的错误。
• 修复一个错误，该错误导致在调用 CreateEntityRequest前调用的 RPC 在 RPC 环形缓冲区系统中未尽早处理，从而导致客户端启动延迟。
• 修复在运行使用 nullrhi 和 SpatialDebugger 的游戏时发生的崩溃。
• 当您在命令行中使用带有参数的 URL 时，我们现在可以正确解析 Receptionist 参数，在必要时使用 URL。
• 修复在同时创建多个动态子对象时，导致在客户端上创建失败的错误。
• 当 worker 实例获得对 Actor 的管辖权时， OwnerOnly 组件可以正确复制。以前，有时只有当它们的值更改时才会进行复制 (在 worker 实例获得管辖权后)。
• 修复将动态子对象附加到 Actor 后立即关闭该 Actor 通道时可能发生的罕见服务器崩溃的情况。
• 修复 InstallGDK.bat 中的一个缺陷，该缺陷有时会导致当正确克隆仓库时，它错误地报告 Error: Could not clone…。
• 来自同一所有权层次结构的 Actor，当对它们进行负载均衡后，可以一起处理。

SpatialOS 工具兼容性

如果您正在使用运行时的标准体，注意以下兼容问题：

• 旧版 old Inspector 不适用。您必需使用 新版 Inspector。
• 在 基于 C# 的 Platform SDK 中，您不能设置 容量限制，或使用 远程交互服务。您也不能使用 Platform SDK 生成云部署的快照，但是我们将在以后的版本中修复此快照问题。
• 您不能生成云部署的快照，但是我们将在以后的版本中修复此快照问题。
• CLI 中, 以下命令无法工作：
  • spatial local worker replace
  • spatial project deployment worker replace
  • spatial local worker-flag set
  • spatial project deployment worker-flag delete
  • spatial project deployment worker-flag set
  • spatial cloud runtime flags set (在未来的版本中，我们将改进调试工具，并将功能添加到 动态更改 worker 标记值。)

如果您需要上面列出的任何功能，将运行时变体更改为兼容模式。

内部变更

本节中列出的功能尚无法使用。但是，本着开放、开发的精神，我们记录了对 GDK 所做的每项更改。

• SpatialOS 的虚幻引擎开发套件现通过 Buildkite CI 自动发布。这意味着未来会有更频繁的发布。
• 英礴现可以统计 Buildkite CI 中 GDK 的非功能性特征。这使我们能够判断并改善这些特性。我们将它们作为非功能性需求 (NFRs) 进行跟踪。

[0.9.0] - 2020-05-05

New Known Issues:

• After you upgrade to Unreal Engine 4.24.3 using git pull, you might be left in a state where several .isph and .ispc files are missing. This state produces compile errors when you build the engine. You can fix this by running git restore . in the root of your UnrealEngine repository.

Breaking Changes:

• Simulated player worker configurations now require a development authentication token and deployment flag instead of a login token and player identity token. See the Example Project for an example of how to set this up.

Features:

• We now support Unreal Engine 4.24.3. You can find the 4.24.3 version of our engine fork here.
• Added a new variable: QueuedOutgoingRPCWaitTime. Outgoing RPCs are now dropped in the following three scenarios: more than QueuedOutgoingRPCWaitTime time has passed since the RPC was sent; the worker instance is never expected to have the authority required to receive the RPC (if you're using offloading or zoning); or the Actor that the RPC is sent to is being destroyed.
• In local deployments of the Example Project, you can now launch simulated players with one click. To launch a single simulated player client, run LaunchSimPlayerClient.bat. To launch ten simulated player clients, run Launch10SimPlayerClients.bat.
• Added support for the UE4 Network Profiler to measure relative size of RPC and Actor replication data.
• Added a SpatialToggleMetricsDisplay console command. You must enable bEnableMetricsDisplay in order for the metrics display to be available. You must then must call SpatialToggleMetricsDisplay on each client that you want the metrics display to be visible for.
• Enabled compression in the Modular UDP networking stack.
• Switched off default RPC-packing. You can re-enable this in SpatialGDKSettings.
• When you start a local deployment, we now check to see if the required Runtime port is blocked. If it is, we display a dialog box that asks whether you want to kill the process that is blocking the port.
• A configurable Actor component SpatialPingComponent is now available. This enables PlayerControllers to measure the ping time to the server-worker instances that have authority over them. You can access the latest raw ping value via GetPing(), or access the rolling average, which is stored in PlayerState.
• You can invoke the GenerateSchema, GenerateSchemaAndSnapshots, and CookAndGenerateSchema commandlets with the -AdditionalSchemaCompilerArguments="..." command line switch to output additional compiled schema formats. If you don't provide this switch, the output contains only the schema descriptor. This switch's value should be a subset of the arguments that you can pass to the schema compiler directly (for example --bundle_out="path/to/bundle.sb"). You can see a full list of possible values in the schema compiler documentation
• Added the AllowUnresolvedParameters function flag. This flag disables warnings that occur during processing of RPCs that have unresolved parameters. To enable this flag, use Blueprints, or add a tag to the UFUNCTION macro.
• There is now a warning if you launch a cloud deployment with the manual_worker_connection_only flag set to true.
• We now support server travel for single-server game worlds. We don't support server travel for game worlds that use zoning or offloading.
• Improved the workflow relating to schema generation issues when you launch local deployments. There is now a warning if you try to launch a local deployment after a schema error.
• DeploymentLauncher can now launch a simulated player deployment independently from the target deployment. Usage: DeploymentLauncher createsim <project-name> <assembly-name> <target-deployment-name> <sim-deployment-name> <sim-deployment-json> <sim-deployment-region> <num-sim-players> <auto-connect>
• We now use HeartbeatTimeoutWithEditorSeconds if WITH_EDITOR is defined. This prevents worker instances from disconnecting when you're running them from the Unreal Editor for debugging.
• Added the bAsyncLoadNewClassesOnEntityCheckout setting to SpatialGDKSettings. This allows worker instances to load new classes asynchronously when they are receiving the initial updates about an entity. It is false by default.
• Added IndexYFromSchema functions for the Coordinates, WorkerRequirementSet, FRotator, and FVector classes. We've remapped the GetYFromSchema functions for the same classes to invoke IndexYFromSchema internally, in line with other implementations of the pattern.
• Clients now validate their schema files against the schema files on the server, and log a warning if the files do not match.
• Entries in the schema database are now sorted to improve efficiency when searching for assets in the Unreal Editor. (DW-Sebastien)
• BatchSpatialPositionUpdates in SpatialGDKSettings now defaults to false.
• Added bEnableNetCullDistanceInterest (default true) to enable client interest to be exposed through component tagging. This functionality has closer parity to native Unreal client interest.
• Added bEnableNetCullDistanceFrequency (default false) to enable client interest queries to use frequency. You can configure this functionality using InterestRangeFrequencyPairs and FullFrequencyNetCullDistanceRatio.
• Introduced the feature flag bEnableResultTypes (default true). This configures interest queries to include only the set of components required for the queries to run. Depending on your game, this might save bandwidth.
• If you set the bEnableResultTypes flag to true, this disables dynamic interest overrides.
• Moved the development authentication settings from the Runtime Settings panel to the Editor Settings panel.
• Added the option to use the development authentication flow with the command line.
• Added a button to generate a development authentication token inside the Unreal Editor. To use it, navigate to Edit > Project Setting > SpatialOS GDK for Unreal > Editor Settings > Cloud Connection.
• Added a new section where you can configure the launch arguments for running a client on a mobile device. To use it, navigate to Edit > Project Setting > SpatialOS GDK for Unreal > Editor Settings > Mobile.
• You can now choose which Runtime version to use (in the Runtime Settings) when you launch a local or cloud deployment.
• If you set the --OverrideResultTypes flag to true, server-worker instances no longer receive updates about server RPC components on Actors that they do not own. This should decrease bandwidth for server-worker instances in offloaded and zoned games.
• The InstallGDK scripts now git clone the correct version of the UnrealGDK and UnrealGDKExampleProject for the UnrealEngine branch that you have checked out. They read UnrealGDKVersion.txt and UnrealGDKExampleProjectVersion.txt to determine what the correct branches are.
• Removed the bEnableServerQBI property and the --OverrideServerInterest flag.
• Added custom warning timeouts for each RPC failure condition.
• SpatialPingComponent can now also report average ping measurements over a specified number of recent pings. You can use PingMeasurementsWindowSize to specify how many measurements you want to record, and call GetAverageData to get the measurement data. There is also a delegate OnRecordPing that is broadcast whenever a new ping measurement is recorded.
• The Spatial Output Log window now displays deployment startup errors.
• Added bEnableClientQueriesOnServer (default false) which makes the same queries on the server as it makes on clients, if the GDK for Unreal's load balancer is enabled. Enable bEnableClientQueriesOnServer to avoid a situation in which clients receive updates about entities that the server doesn't receive updates about (which happens if the server's interest query is configured incorrectly).
• We now log a warning when AddPendingRPC fails due to ControllerChannelNotListening.
• When offloading is enabled, Actors have local authority (ROLE_Authority) on servers for longer periods of time, to allow more native Unreal functionality to work without problems.
• When offloading is enabled, if you try to spawn Actors on a server that will not be the Actor Group owner for them, we now log an error and delete the Actors.
• The GDK now uses SpatialOS Runtime version 14.5.1 by default.
• Renamed the configuration setting bPreventAutoConnectWithLocator to bPreventClientCloudDeploymentAutoConnect and moved it to SpatialGDKSettings. To use this feature, enable the setting in SpatialGDKSettings.
• Made USpatialMetrics::WorkerMetricsRecieved static.
• You can now connect to a local deployment by selecting Connect to a local deployment and specifying the local IP address of your computer in the Launch drop-down menu.
• Enabled RPC ring buffers by default. We'll remove the legacy RPC mode in a future release.
• Removed the bPackRPCs property and the --OverrideRPCPacking flag.
• Added OnClientOwnershipGained and OnClientOwnershipLost events on Actors and Actor Components. These events trigger when an Actor is added to or removed from the ownership hierarchy of a client's PlayerController.
• Automatically remove UE4CommandLine.txt after finishing a Launch on device session on an Android device (only UnrealEngine 4.24 or above). This is done to prevent the launch session command line from overriding the one built into the APK.

Bug fixes:

• Queued RPCs no longer spam logs when an entity is deleted.
• We now take the OverrideSpatialNetworking command line argument into account as early as possible (previously, LocalDeploymentManager queried bSpatialNetworking before the command line was parsed).
• Servers now maintain interest in AlwaysRelevant Actors.
• GetActorSpatialPosition now returns the last spectator sync location while the player is spectating.
• The default cloud launch configuration is now empty.
• Fixed a crash that happened when the GDK attempted to read schema from an unloaded class.
• We now properly handle (and eventually resolve) unresolved object references in replicated arrays of structs.
• Fixed a tombstone-related assert that could fire and bring down the Unreal Editor.
• If an Actor that is placed in the level with bNetLoadOnClient=false goes out of a worker instance's view, it is now reloaded if it comes back into view.
• Fixed a crash in SpatialDebugger that was caused by the dereference of an invalid weak pointer.
• Fixed a connection error that occurred when using spatial cloud connect external.
• The command line argument receptionistHost <URL> no longer overrides connections to 127.0.0.1.
• If you connect a worker instance to a deployment using the Locator, and you initiate a ClientTravel using a URL that requires the Receptionist, this now works correctly.
• You can now access the worker flags via USpatialStatics::GetWorkerFlag instead of USpatialWorkerFlags::GetWorkerFlag.
• Fixed a crash in SpatialDebugger that occurs when GDK-space load balancing is disabled.
• The schema database no longer fails to load previous saved state when working in the Unreal Editor.
• If you attempt to launch a cloud deployment, this now runs the spatial auth process as required. Previously the deployment would fail.
• Made a minor spelling fix to the connection log message.
• The debug strings in GlobalStateManager now display the Actor class name in log files.
• The server no longer crashes when received RPCs are processed recursively.
• The GDK no longer crashes when SoftObjectPointers are not yet resolved, but instead serializes them as expected after they are resolved.
• Fixed an issue that occurred when replicating a property for a class that was part of an asynchronously-loaded package, when the package had not finished loading.
• Fixed component interest constraints that are constructed from schema.
• The GDK now tracks properties that contain references to replicated Actors, so that it can resolve them again if the Actor that they reference moves out of and back into relevance.
• PIE sessions no longer occasionally fail to start due to missing schema for the SpatialDebugger Blueprint.
• Fixed an issue where a newly-created subobject had empty state when RepNotify was called for a property pointing to that subobject.
• Fixed an issue where deleted, initially dormant startup Actors would still be present on other worker instances.
• We now force-activate the RPC ring buffer when load balancing is enabled, to allow RPC handover when authority changes.
• Fixed a race condition where a client that was leaving the deployment could leave its Actor behind on the server, to be cleaned up after a long timeout.
• Fixed a crash that was caused by state in SpatialGameInstance persisting across a transition from one deployment to another.
• The GDK no longer crashes when you start and stop PIE clients multiple times.
• The GDK no longer crashes when shadow data is uninitialized when resolving unresolved objects.
• Fixed an occasional issue when sending component RPCs on a recently-created Actor.

Internal:

Features listed in this section are not ready to use. However, in the spirit of open development, we record every change that we make to the GDK.

• Enabled the SpatialOS toolbar for MacOS.
• Added support for Android.
• SpatialDebugger worker regions are now cuboids rather than planes, and can have their WorkerRegionVerticalScale adjusted via a setting in the SpatialDebugger.
• Added an AuthorityIntent component, a VirtualWorkerTranslation component, and a partial framework. We'll use these in the future to control load balancing.
• Load balancing strategies and locking strategies can be set per-level using SpatialWorldSettings.
• Added a new Runtime Settings flag to enable the GDK for Unreal load balancer. This is a feature that is in development and not yet ready for general use. Enabling the GDK for Unreal load balancer now creates a single query per server-worker instance, depending on the defined load balancing strategy.
• Extracted the logic responsible for taking an Actor and generating the array of SpatialOS components that represents it as an entity in SpatialOS. This logic is now in EntityFactory.
• DeploymentLauncher can now parse a .pb.json launch configuration.

[0.8.0-preview] - 2019-12-17

English version

Breaking Changes:

• This is the last GDK version to support Unreal Engine 4.22. You will need to upgrade your project to use Unreal Engine 4.23 (4.23-SpatialOSUnrealGDK-preview) in order to continue receiving GDK releases and support.
• When upgrading to Unreal Engine 4.23 you must:

1. git checkout 4.23-SpatialOSUnrealGDK-preview
2. git pull
3. Download and install the -v15 clang-8.0.1-based toolchain from this Unreal Engine Documentation page.
4. Navigate to the root of GDK repo and run Setup.bat.
5. Run Setup.bat, which is located in the root directory of the UnrealEngine repository.
6. Run GenerateProjectFiles.bat, which is in the same root directory.

For more information, check the Keep your GDK up to date SpatialOS documentation.

Features:

• You can now call SpatialToggleMetricsDisplay from the console in your Unreal clients in order to view metrics. bEnableMetricsDisplay must be enabled on clients where you want to use this feature.
• The modular-udp networking stack now uses compression by default.
• Reduced network latency by switching off default rpc-packing. If you need this on by default, you can re-enable it by editing SpatialGDKSettings.ini
• When you start a local deployment, the GDK now checks the port required by the runtime and, if it's in use, prompts you to kill that process.
• You can now measure round-trip ping from a player controller to the server-worker that's currently authoritative over it using the configurable actor component 'SpatialPingComponent'. The latest ping value can be accessed through the component via 'GetPing()' or via the rolling average stored in 'PlayerState'.
• You can disable the warnings that trigger when RPCs are processed with unresolved parameters using the AllowUnresolvedParameters function flag. This flag can be enabled through Blueprints or by adding a tag to the UFUNCTION macro.
• Improved logging around entity creation.
• Unreal Engine 4.23.1 is now supported. You can find the 4.23.1 version of our engine fork here.
• In Example Project, the default session duration has increased from 5 minutes to 120 minutes so you don't have to re-deploy while playtesting.
• In Example Project, the default lobby timer has decreased from 15 seconds to 3 seconds so you don't have to wait for your playtest to start.
• Added in-editor support for exposing a local runtime at a particular IP address. This offers the same functionality as the --runtime_ip option in the SpatialOS CLI.
• Spatial networking is now always enabled in built assemblies.

Bug fixes:

• Fixed a bug that could cause name collisions in schema generated for sublevels.
• Downgraded name collisions during schema generation from Warning to Display.
• Replicating a static subobject after it has been deleted on a client no longer results in client attaching a new dynamic subobject.
• Fixed a bug that caused entity pool reservations to cease after a request times out.
• Running BuildWorker.bat for SimulatedPlayer no longer fails if the project path has a space in it.
• Fixed a crash when starting PIE with out-of-date schema.
• Fixed an issue where launching a cloud deployment with an invalid assembly name or deployment name wouldn't show a helpful error message.

Internal:

Features listed in the internal section are not ready to use but, in the spirit of open development, we detail every change we make to the GDK.

• We've added a partial loadbalancing framework. When this is completed in a future release, you will be able to control loadbalancing using server-workers.

功能介绍:

• 您可以在虚幻引擎客户端的控制台调用 SpatialToggleMetricsDisplay 来查看指标。您必须在客户端开启 bEnableMetricsDisplay 来使用该功能。
• 默认情况下，模块化udp网络栈现在使用压缩。
• 通过关闭默认 rpc 打包来减少网络延迟。如果需要默认情况下启用它，则可以通过编辑SpatialGDKSettings.ini来重新启用它。
• 当您开始本地部署时，GDK 会检查运行时所需的端口。如果该端口正在被使用，则会提示您终止该进程。
• 您可以使用可配置的 Actor 组件 SpatialPingComponent 来测量从玩家控制器到当前对其具有管辖权的服务端 worker 的往返 ping。您可以通过 GetPing()或存储在 PlayerState 中的移动平均值来访问组件获取最新的 ping 值。
• 通过 AllowUnresolvedParameters 函数标记，您可以禁用因使用未解析的参数处理 RPC 时触发的警告。您可以使用蓝图或通过向 UFUNCTION 宏添加标签来启用此标志。
• 改进关于实体创建的日志输出。
• 现已支持虚幻引擎 4.23.1。您可以在 此处 找到虚幻引擎分支的 4.23.1 版本。
• 在示例项目中，默认的副本持续时间从5分钟增加到120分钟，因此您不必在进行游戏测试时重新部署。
• 在示例项目中，默认的游戏大厅计时器从15秒减少到3秒，因此您不必等待游戏测试开始。
• 添加编辑器内公开特定 IP 地址的本地运行时支持。它提供的功能与 SpatialOS CLI 中的 --runtime_ip 选项相同。
• SpatialOS 网络在构建的程序集中始终开启。

问题修复:

• 修复可能导致为关卡分段生成的模式语言中名称冲突的错误。
• 降低模式语言生成过程中的名称冲突级别：由 Warning (警告) 到 Display (显示)。
• 在客户端上删除静态子对象后对其进行复制不再导致客户端附加新的动态子对象。
• 修复请求超时后实体池预留停止的问题。
• 如果项目路径中有空格，为 SimulatedPlayer 运行 BuildWorker.bat 不再失败。

内部:

内部部分中列出的功能尚未准备就绪，但本着开放式开发的精神，我们详细介绍了对 GDK 所做的所有更改。

• 我们添加了部分负载均衡框架。在未来的版本中完成此框架后，您将可以使用服务端 worker 来控制负载均衡。

[0.7.1-preview] - 2019-12-06

Adapted from 0.6.3

Bug fixes:

• The C Worker SDK now communicates on port 443 instead of 444. This change is intended to protect your cloud deployments from DDoS attacks.

Internal:

Features listed in the internal section are not ready to use but, in the spirit of open development, we detail every change we make to the GDK.

• The GDK is now compatible with the CN launch region. When Improbable's online services are fully working in China, they will work with this version of the GDK. You will be able to create SpatialOS Deployments in China by specifying the CN region in the Deployment Launcher.
• Setup.bat and Setup.sh both accept the --china flag, which will be required in order to run SpatialOS CLI commands in the CN region.
• SpatialOS GDK for Unreal > Editor Settings now contains a Region Settings section. You will be required to set Region where services are located to CN in order to create SpatialOS Deployments in China.

[0.7.0-preview] - 2019-10-11

New Known Issues:

• MSVC v14.23 removes typeinfo.h and replaces it with typeinfo. This change causes errors when building the Unreal Engine. This issue only affects Visual Studio 2019 users. You can work around the issue by:

1. Open Visual Studio Installer.
2. Select "Modify" on your Visual Studio 2019 installation.
3. In the Installation details section uncheck all workloads and components until only Visual Studio code editor remains.
4. Select the following items in the Workloads tab:

• Universal Windows Platform development
• .NET desktop development
• You must also select the .NET Framework 4.6.2 development tools component in the Installation details section.
• Desktop development with C++
• You must then deselect MSVC v142 - VS 2019 C++ x64/x86 build tools (v14.23), which was added as part of the Desktop development with C++ Workload. You will be notified that: "If you continue, we'll remove the componenet and any items liseted above that depend on it." Select remove to confirm your decision.
• Lastly, add MSVC v142 - VS 2019 C++ x64/x86 build tools (v14.22) from the Individual components tab.

5. Select "Modify" to confirm your changes.

Breaking Changes:

• If your project uses replicated subobjects that do not inherit from ActorComponent or GameplayAbility, you now need to enable generating schema for them using SpatialType UCLASS specifier, or by checking the Spatial Type checkbox on blueprints.
• Chunk based interest is no longer supported. All interest is resolved using query-based interest (QBI). You should remove streaming query and chunk based interest options from worker and launch config files to avoid unnecessary streaming queries being generated.
• If you already have a project that you are upgrading to this version of the GDK, it is encouraged to follow the upgrade process to SpatialOS 14.1.0:

1. Open the spatialos.json file in the spatial/ directory of your project.
2. Replace the sdk_version value and the version value of all dependencies with 14.1.0.
3. Replace all other instances of the version number in the file.

Features:

• The GDK now uses SpatialOS 14.1.0.
• Visual Studio 2019 is now supported.
• You can now delete your schema database using options in the GDK toolbar and the commandlet.
• The GDK now checks that schema and a snapshot are present before attempting to start a local deployment. If either are missing then an error message is displayed.
• Added optional net relevancy check in replication prioritization. If enabled, an actor will only be replicated if IsNetRelevantFor is true for one of the connected client's views.
• You can now specify which actors should not persist as entities in your Snapshot. You do this by adding the flag SPATIALCLASS_NotPersistent to a class or by entering NotPersistent in the Class Defaults > Spatial Description field on blueprints.
• Deleted startup actors are now tracked.
• Added a user bindable delegate to SpatialMetrics which triggers when worker metrics have been received.
• Local deployments now create a new log file known as launch.log which will contain logs relating to starting and running a deployment. Additionally it will contain worker logs which are forwarded to the SpatialOS runtime.
• Added a new setting to SpatialOS Runtime Settings Worker Log Level which allows configuration of which verbosity of worker logs gets forwarded to the SpatialOS runtime.
• Added a new developer tool called 'Spatial Output Log' which will show local deployment logs from the launch.log file.
• Added logging for queued RPCs.
• Added several new STAT annotations into the ServerReplicateActors call chain.
• The GDK no longer generates schema for all UObject subclasses. Schema generation for Actor, ActorComponent and GameplayAbility subclasses is enabled by default, other classes can be enabled using SpatialType UCLASS specifier, or by checking the Spatial Type checkbox on blueprints.
• Added new experimental CookAndGenerateSchemaCommandlet that generates required schema during a regular cook.
• Added the OverrideSpatialOffloading command line flag. This allows you to toggle offloading at launch time.
• The initial connection from a worker will attempt to use relevant command line arguments (receptionistHost, locatorHost) to inform the connection. If these are not provided the standard connection flow will be followed. Subsequent connections will not use command line arguments.
• The command "Open 0.0.0.0" can be used to connect a worker using its command line arguments, simulating initial connection.
• The command "ConnectToLocator " has been added to allow for explicit connections to deployments.
• Add SpatialDebugger and associated content. This tool can be enabled via the SpatialToggleDebugger console command. Documentation will be added for this soon.

Bug fixes:

• Fixed a bug where the spatial daemon started even with spatial networking disabled.
• Fixed an issue that could cause multiple Channels to be created for an Actor.
• PlayerControllers on non-auth servers now have BeginPlay called with correct authority.
• Attempting to replicate unsupported types (such as TMap) results in an error rather than crashing the game.
• Generating schema when the schema database is locked by another process will no longer crash the editor.
• When the schema compiler fails, schema generation now displays an error.
• Fixed crash during initialization when running GenerateSchemaCommandlet.
• Generating schema after deleting the schema database now correctly triggers an initial schema generation.
• Streaming levels with query-based interest (QBI) enabled no longer produces errors if the player connection owns unreplicated actors.
• Fixed an issue that prevented player movement in a zoned deployment.
• Fixed an issue that caused queued incoming RPCs with unresolved references to never be processed.
• Muticast RPCs that are sent shortly after an actor is created are now correctly processed by all clients.
• When replicating an actor, the owner's Spatial position will no longer be used if it isn't replicated.
• Fixed a crash upon checking out an actor with a deleted static subobject.
• Fixed an issue where launching a cloud deployment with an invalid assembly name or deployment name wouldn't show a helpful error message.

[0.6.2] - 2019-10-10

• The GDK no longer relies on an ordering of entity and interest queries that is not guaranteed by the SpatialOS runtime.
• The multiserver offloading tutorial has been simplified and re-factored.

[0.6.1] - 2019-08-15

Features:

• The Multiserver zoning shooter tutorial has been updated to use the Example Project.

Bug fixes:

• Simulated player launch configurations are no longer invalid when the GDK is installed as an Engine Plugin.
• RPCs that have been queued for execution for more than 1 second (the default value in SpatialGDKSettings QueuedIncomingRPCWaitTime) are now executed even if there are unresolved parameters. This stops unresolved parameters from blocking the execution queue.
• Offloading is no longer enabled by default in the Example Project. You can toggle offloading on using these steps.
• Guns no longer intermittently detatch from simulated players in the Example Project.
• Default cloud deployment settings are now correctly set. This means you don't need to manually reset them before doing a cloud deployment.

[0.6.0] - 2019-07-31

Breaking Changes:

• You must re-build your Example Project if you're upgrading it to 0.6.0.
• This is the last GDK version to support Unreal Engine 4.20. You will need to upgrade your project to use Unreal Engine 4.22 (4.22-SpatialOSUnrealGDK-release) in order to continue receiving GDK releases and support.

New Known Issues:

• Workers will sometimes not gain authority when quickly reconnecting to an existing deployment, resulting in a failure to spawn or simulate. When using the editor if you Play - Stop - Play in quick succession you can sometimes fail to launch correctly.

Features:

• The GDK now uses SpatialOS 13.8.1.
• Dynamic components are now supported. You can now dynamically attach and remove replicated subobjects to Actors.
• Local deployment startup time has been significantly reduced.
• Local deployments now start automatically when you select Play. This means you no longer need to select Start in the GDK toolbar before you select Play in the Unreal toolbar.
• If your schema has changed during a local deployment, the next time you select Play the deployment will automatically restart.
• Local deployments no longer run in a seperate Command Prompt. Logs from these deployments are now found in the Unreal Editor's Output Log.
• SpatialOS Runtime logs can now be found at <GameRoot>\spatial\logs\localdeployment\<timestamp>\runtime.log.
• An option to Show spatial service button has been added to the SpatialOS Settings menu. This button can be useful when debugging.
• Every time you open a GDK project in the Unreal Editor, 'spatial service' will be restarted. This ensures the service is always running in the correct SpatialOS project. You can disable this auto start feature via the new SpatialOS setting Auto-start local deployment.
• Added external schema code-generation tool for non-Unreal server-worker types. If you create non-Unreal server-worker types using the SpatialOS Worker SDK outside of the GDK and your Unreal Engine, you manually create schema. Use the new helper-script to generate Unreal code from manually-created schema; it enables your Unreal game code to interoperate with non-Unreal server-worker types.
• Added simulated player tools, which will allow you to create logic to simulate the behavior of real players. Simulated players can be used to scale test your game to hundreds of players. Simulated players can be launched locally as part of your development flow for quick iteration, as well as part of a separate "simulated player deployment" to connect a configurable amount of simulated players to your running game deployment.
• Factored out writing of Linux worker start scripts into a library, and added a standalone WriteLinuxScript.exe to just write the launch script (for use in custom build pipelines).
• Added temporary MaxNetCullDistanceSquared to SpatialGDKSettings to prevent excessive net cull distances impacting runtime performance. Set to 0 to disable.
• Added OnWorkerFlagsUpdated, a delegate that can be directly bound to in C++. To bind via blueprints you can use the blueprint callable functions BindToOnWorkerFlagsUpdated and UnbindToOnWorkerFlagsUpdated. You can use OnWorkerFlagsUpdated to register when worker flag updates are received, which allows you to tweak values at deployment runtime.
• RPC frequency and payload size can now be tracked using console commands: SpatialStartRPCMetrics to start recording RPCs and SpatialStopRPCMetrics to stop recording and log the collected information. Using these commands will also start/stop RPC tracking on the server.
• Spatial now respects bAlwaysRelevant and clients will always checkout Actors that have bAlwaysRelevant set to true.

Bug fixes:

• The improbable namespace has been renamed to SpatialGDK. This prevents namespace conflicts with the C++ SDK.
• Disconnected players no longer remain on the server until they time out if the client was shut down manually.
• Fixed support for relative paths as the engine association in your games .uproject file.
• RPCs on NotSpatial types are no longer queued forever and are now dropped instead.
• Fixed issue where an Actor's Spatial position was not updated if it had an owner that was not replicated.
• BeginPlay is now only called with authority on startup actors once per deployment.
• Fixed null pointer dereference crash when trying to initiate a Spatial connection without an existing one.
• URL options are now properly sent through to the server when doing a ClientTravel.
• The correct error message is now printed when the SchemaDatabase is missing.
• StartEditor.bat is now generated correctly when you build a server worker outside of editor.
• Fixed an issue with logging errored blueprints after garbage collection which caused an invalid pointer crash.
• Removed the ability to configure snapshot save folder. Snapshots should always be saved to <ProjectRoot>/spatial/snapshots. This prevents an issue with absolute paths being checked in which can break snapshot generation.
• Introduced a new module, SpatialGDKServices, on which SpatialGDK and SpatilGDKEditorToolbar now depend. This resolves a previously cyclic dependency.
• RPCs called before entity creation are now queued in case they cannot yet be executed. Previously they were simply dropped. These RPCs are also included in RPC metrics.
• RPCs are now guaranteed to arrive in the same order for a given actor and all of its subobjects on single-server deployments. This matches native Unreal behavior.

0.5.0-preview - 2019-06-25

• Prevented Spatial GDK Content from appearing under Content Browser in the editor, as the GDK plugin does not contain any game content.

Breaking Changes:

• If you are using Unreal Engine 4.22, the AutomationTool and UnrealBuildTool now require .NET 4.6.2.

New Known Issues:

Features:

• Unreal Engine 4.22 is now supported. You can find the 4.22 verson of our engine fork here.
• Setup.bat can now take a project path as an argument. This allows the UnrealGDK to be installed as an Engine Plugin, pass the project path as the first variable if you are running Setup.bat from UnrealEngine/Engine/Plugins.
• Removed the need for setting the UNREAL_HOME environment variable. The build and setup scripts will now use your project's engine association to find the Unreal Engine directory. If an association is not set they will search parent directories looking for the 'Engine' folder.
• Added the ASpatialMetricsDisplay class, which you can use to view UnrealWorker stats as an overlay on the client.
• Added the runtime option bEnableHandover, which you can use to toggle property handover when running in non-zoned deployments.
• Added the runtime option bEnableMetricsDisplay, which you can use to auto spawn ASpatialMetricsDisplay, which is used to remote debug server metrics.
• Added the runtime option bBatchSpatialPositionUpdates, which you can use to batch spatial position updates to the runtime.
• Started using the schema_compiler tool to generate schema descriptors rather than relying on 'spatial local launch' to do this.
• Changed Interest so that NetCullDistanceSquared is used to define the distance from a player that the actor type is interesting to the player. This replaces CheckoutRadius which defined the distance that an actor is interested in other types. Requires engine update to remove the CheckoutRadius property which is no longer used.
• Added ActorInterestComponent that can be used to define interest queries that are more complex than a radius around the player position.
• Enabled new Development Authentication Flow
• Added new "worker" entities which are created for each server worker in a deployment so they correctly receive interest in the global state manager.
• Added support for spawning actors with ACLs configured for offloading using actor groups.
• Removed the references to the Number of servers slider in the Play in editor drop-down menu. The number of each server worker type to launch in PIE is now specified within the launch configuration in the Spatial GDK Editor Settings settings tab.
• Added SpatialWorkerId which is set to the worker ID when the worker associated to the UGameInstance connects.
• Added USpatialStatics helper blueprint library exposing functions for checking if SpatialOS networking is enabled, whether offloading is enabled, and more SpatialOS related checks.

Bug fixes:

• BeginPlay is not called with authority when checking out entities from Spatial.
• Launching SpatialOS would fail if there was a space in the full directory path.
• GenerateSchemaAndSnapshots commandlet no longer runs a full schema generation for each map.
• Reliable RPC checking no longer breaks compatibility between development and shipping builds.
• Fixed an issue with schema name collisions.
• Running Schema (Full Scan) now clears generated schema files first.
• Singleton actor's authority and state now resumes correctly when reconnecting servers to snapshot.
• Retrying reliable RPCs with UObject arguments that were destroyed before the RPC was retried no longer causes a crash.
• Fixed path naming issues in setup.sh
• Fixed an assert/crash in SpatialMetricsDisplay that occurred when reloading a snapshot.
• Added Singleton and SingletonManager to query-based interest (QBI) constraints to fix issue preventing Test configuration builds from functioning correctly.
• Failing to NetSerialize a struct in spatial no longer causes a crash, it now prints a warning. This matches native Unreal behavior.
• Query response delegates now execute even if response status shows failure. This allows handlers to implement custom retry logic such as clients querying for the GSM.
• Fixed a crash where processing unreliable RPCs made assumption that the worker had authority over all entities in the SpatialOS op
• Ordering and reliability for single server RPCs on the same Actor are now guaranteed.

0.3.0 - 2019-04-04

New Known Issues:

• Enabling Query Based Interest is needed for level streaming support, but this might affect performance in certain scenarios and is currently being investigated.
• Replicated TimelineComponents are not supported.

For current known issues, please visit this docs page

Features:

• The default connection protocol is now TCP.
• Query Based Interest is now supported as an opt-in feature.

New Known Issues:

• A warning about an out of date net driver is printed at startup of clients and server.

For current known issues, please visit this docs page
