1.2.1

Changes since 1.2.0

• Added PHP 8.5 to test matrix.
• Improved error reporting when fields are not set correctly in EncapsulatedPacket. Previously, leaving some fields blank might have resulted in unexpected behaviour.
• tools/proxy.php now scrubs non-printable characters from server ping responses to avoid console beeps and other undesirable behaviour from special characters.

1.2.0

Changes since 1.1.x

• Noisy packet error and IP blocking messages are now suppressed if more than 2 such messages are generated per second. This significantly reduces the performance impact of certain kinds of attacks.
• Added support for disabling IP banning on packet errors via the Server constructor. See #239 for motivation.

1.1.2

Changes since 1.1.1

• Ping responses with negative timestamps are now rejected as invalid.

1.1.1

Changes since 1.1.0

• SendReliabilityLayer will now retransmit packets unacked for longer than 2 seconds.
  • Previously, packets might wait for acknowledgement for up to 9 seconds, causing major connection pauses.
  • This timeout will be replaced by a better mechanism in an upcoming release.

1.1.0

Changes since 1.0.0

• SendReliabilityLayer is now aware of, and respects, the remote reliable window.
  • This is necessary because the client will drop packets if they aren't within its reliable window (without ACK or NAK), causing long resend delays.
  • Packets outside this window are buffered until the window has shifted enough to allow the client to accept them.
  • A new parameter $reliableWindowSize has been added to SendReliabilityLayer::__construct(), with a default of 512 (matching the official RakNet default as seen here).
• SendReliabilityLayer no longer drops the resend queue under any circumstances.
  • This had the potential to cause a breakdown of reliable packet transmission, causing sessions to get stuck.
  • Thanks to the introduction of sending reliability window, the resend queue size should never exceed the reliable window size (512 packets) anyway.

1.0.0

This release is mostly the same as 0.15.x.
Despite what the version may suggest, this is not a complete RakNet implementation. Staying on 0.x for so long was a mistake that needed to be corrected.

Changes since 0.15.x

• Introduce parameterization for max split packet part count and concurrent split packet handling.
• Improved header size calculation for connected packets when checking whether to split packets. It now calculates the exact header size instead of assuming a hard 60-byte cutoff (this was too much for most packets, causing unnecessary packet splitting, and also didn't handle reliable-sequenced correctly).
• Fixed ack receipts not working when a packet was split into multiple parts.

0.15.0

Changes since 0.14.x

This release modernizes the code to PHP 8.0 standards, and improves some internal structure to open the gates for future extension.
No significant changes have been made, and the API is mostly the same as 0.14.

API

• Use typed properties and promoted properties wherever possible
• Extracted generic session logic into raklib\generic\Session
• raklib\server\Session is replaced by a much smaller raklib\server\ServerSession - it inherits most of its logic from generic\Session
• Added specialized client\ClientSocket and server\ServerSocket with different functionality for each use case
• isTemporal renamed to isTemporary wherever appropriate
• Added DisconnectReason constants. All disconnect APIs now use these instead of hardcoded string messages.

Tools

• Added new scripts:
  • tools/scan.php to scan for servers on a given broadcast address
  • tools/proxy.php to set up a simple tunnel between a client and server (useful for getting a Windows Minecraft client onto a WSL BDS instance)

0.14.4

Changes since 0.14.3

• Fixed memory leak in ReceiveReliabilityLayer when processing reliable-ordered packets.
• Handling reliable-sequenced and reliable-ordered packets on the same channel should now work correctly.

0.14.3

Changes since 0.14.2

• Datagram sequence numbers are now never reused.
• Server->__construct() now checks that the passed MTU size is bigger than Session::MIN_MTU_SIZE.
• Dropped support for PreProcessor.
• Now analysed using PHPStan level 9.

0.12.12

Changes since 0.12.11

• Accept pthreads ~3.2.0 || ^4.0.
