Changelog

2.6.0

Removed

• NetworkManager — tied to ZSteamSocket, incompatible with crossplay (PlayFab transport). Pure Steam sessions were unaffected but the risk outweighed the benefit.
• ZDOOptimizer — ZDOMan.CreateSyncList filtering could cause ghost objects / desync on servers with active gameplay.
• ZstdSharp and dict.small resources (no longer needed).

Fixed

• LightLODManager: ScanForLights() (FindObjectsOfType) was called on Start unnecessarily — the scene is empty at that point and the reactive patch handles registration correctly.
• AdvancedLightManager: periodic PerformLightScan() every 5 seconds caused micro-freezes (FindObjectsByType is O(N) over entire scene). Now runs once on Start only.
• DistanceCuller: each culler had its own MonoBehaviour.Update(). On 300 building pieces this meant 300 Update calls per frame. All cullers now register with DistanceCullerManager and are updated in a single loop every 2 seconds.
• PiecePatches: ConcurrentDictionary replaced with Dictionary. All access is from main thread — the lock overhead was pure waste.
• AsyncWearInit: added early return in Update() when queue is empty.

2.5.1
