Changelog

0.4.1

• Raised the BreakoutNet dependency to 0.2.1.
• Registered the voice-frame RPC with a high-frequency BreakoutNet rate policy so long push-to-talk sessions are not dropped by the generic RPC limiter.
• Kept VOIP's own server-side voice-aware frame limiter for abuse protection.

0.4.0

• Updated VOIP to use BreakoutNet 0.2.0 app/context APIs.
• Replaced VOIP's local world-left polling with BreakoutNet core hooks.
• Added local VOIP extension events for settings application and relayed voice packets.

0.3.0

• Migrated VOIP voice frame transport to BreakoutNet typed RPCs.
• Migrated server-authoritative settings sync to BreakoutNet.
• Added BreakoutNet as a runtime/package dependency.
• Updated build and deploy scripts to build and copy BreakoutNet.dll.

0.2.0

• Added hardened voice packet validation, server-authored speaker identity/position, rate limiting, microphone lifecycle improvements, and playback UX polish.
