Featured changes

• Uses @colyseus/schema version 3.0 (Which fixes onChange is triggered when elements are removed schema#155, [Bug]: States are not triggered in the expected order #702, [Bug]: Uncaught Error: ChangeTree: missing index for field "undefined" #689, ArraySchema keys not updated when elements are removed schema#152, ArraySchema: moving items results in wrong state schema#108, ArraySchema push/splice/push, item added at wrong index. schema#94, ArraySchema: CLEAR + PUSH results in onAdd called twice schema#107, [Bug]: ArraySchema.unshift() not working as intended. schema#170, https://github.com/orgs/colyseus/discussions/589, "Local schema mismatch from server" - when defining multiple rooms/states colyseus-unity-sdk#131)
• Fixes previously known ArraySchema issues (ArraySchema: known issues #641)
• Introduce the StateView build block which allows filtering state data per client
• Introduce an experimental way to customize encoding and decoding Schema instances (see docs)
• De-couple encode and decode methods from Schema instances
• Improve buffer / memory allocation for sending room messages
• Introduce experimental @colyseus/h3-transport for WebTransport support. (Evaluate WebTransport protocols and APIs #272)
  • (The JavaScript SDK auto-detects it and uses WebTransport instead of WebSockets for room connections)

Breaking changes

• Renamed matchMaker.find(conditions) method to matchMaker.query(conditions, sortOptions)
• The previously undocumented client._reconnectionToken variable has been renamed to client.reconnectionToken
• @filter() and @filterChildren() have been removed from @colyseus/schema. (If you need to filter data from the state per client, please use the StateView)
• Deprecation: sending schema-encoded messages has been removed

Quality of life changes

• The room properties patchRate, autoDispose and state can now be assigned at the class level:

class MyRoom extends Room {
  patchRate = 1000;
  autoDispose = false;
  state = new MyState();
}
