NetworkProfiler & Fixes

This release adds a brand new NetworkProfiler API for profiling bandwidth. It comes with an Editor window. See the wiki article here.
This is now included in the Editor package and will automatically be included by the installer.

This release also adds diff sending to arrays in SyncedVars and fixes an issue causing observer lists not to be populated when not using the observer API.

SyncedVar hotfix

This release fixes a critical issue introduced in v1.2.0 that would cause SyncedVars to not be properly read if there were more than 1 per behaviour. Additionally, it fixes array behaviour in SyncedVars and they are now supported for any type.

It also adds support for custom types in SyncedVars

Proximity & cache hotfix

This release fixes issues regarding the built-in NetworkedProximity where it didn't follow the new API where the HashSet is NOT to be replaced but rather only cleared.

It also fixes a problem regarding caching of Attributed Messages.

This version contains ONLY fixes from v1.2.0 and is recommended.

Optimization & Transport Changes

BitWriter & Target SyncedVar

This release replaces all internal Binary serialization with the new BitWriter. See the wiki for more info

First stable

This is the first "stable" release. It comes with an Editor script that is used to install, update and manage what MLAPI version is installed. This release includes many major changes. The Editor scripts are now required and will be included when installing the Editor script.

To install, download the MLAPI_Editor Unity package. The installer will automatically download the DLL's and extract the Editor & Gizmo files.
