# Change Log

## Version 4.0.7 - 2019-Oct-03
- Added: [Authentication](../Guides/Authentication.md) support to authenticate clients in the Connect phase
- Added: Profiler events. These events can be subscribed to by the [Network Profiler](../Guides/Profiler.md) to provide visual information
- Added: Transports now include channel in profiler events
- Added: Transport abstract class now supports sending a message to a list of connection id's
- Fixed: SceneMessage now has sceneOperation enum so clients can properly handle additive scenes
- Fixed: NetworkClient handlers are now cleared in Shutdown
- Fixed: Offline scene is no longer reloaded when client fails to connect or is rejected
- Fixed: Start Position Index is now reset to zero when server is stopped
- Fixed: Network Room Players are now all in DontDestroyOnLoad so they don't respawn in the game scene
- Fixed: Network Room example player controller restores main camera on disable
- Fixed: Components with different sync intervals were not sending updates to clients
- Fixed: In certain cases, weaver wouldn't weave some external assemblies
- Fixed: NetworkAnimator now does a full sync for new clients
- Fixed: NetworkBehaviour inspector now shows SyncMode for private SyncVars

- Changed: Mirror is now free of garbage memory allocation on the sending side.
    - Some transports may still have a little garbage allocation yet.
- Changed: Deprecated the AddPlayerMessage extraMessage byte\[\] in favor of an easier approach to [Custom Players](../Guides/GameObjects/SpawnPlayerCustom.md)
    - This is a breaking change: The virtual method OnServerAddPlayer loses the AddPlayerMessage parameter.
