autoCleanup on Behaviour — register disposables or cleanup functions tied to the component lifecycle. Automatically cleaned up on disable or destroy depending on when registered:onEnable() {
this.autoCleanup(on(window, "resize", () => { ... }));
this.autoCleanup(this.context.connection.beginListen("my-event", () => { ... }));
}
TimelineBuilder API for building timeline assets from code:const timeline = TimelineBuilder.create("MyTimeline")
.animationTrack("Walk", animator).clip(walkClip, { duration: 2 })
.activationTrack("FX", vfxObject).activate({ start: 1, duration: 0.5 })
.build();
director.playableAsset = timeline;
PlayableDirector: expose tracks and activationTracks getters, support runtime playableAsset assignment with automatic graph rebuildPhysicsCollider: expose density property, add @validate decorator for automatic property updates at runtimeAudioTrack volume getter/setterNetworking: beginListen now returns an unsubscribe function (backwards compatible — stopListen still works):const unsub = this.context.connection.beginListen("my-event", (data) => { ... });
unsub(); // or use this.autoCleanup(unsub)

Context.events — typed event bus for decoupled component communication. Known events get autocomplete; custom events can be typed at the call site:context.events.on("scene-content-changed", e => console.log(e.object));
context.events.emit<{ pts: number }>("scored", { pts: 10 });
ContactShadows auto-refit — when autoFit is enabled, shadows automatically refit when scene content changes (e.g. SceneSwitcher load, DropListener asset loading)Input.addEventListener now returns an unsubscribe function (works with autoCleanup):this.autoCleanup(this.context.input.addEventListener("pointerdown", (evt) => { ... }));
AnimationBuilder — low-level API for defining animation tracks with typed keyframes and tween shorthands. Used by AnimatorControllerBuilder and TimelineBuilder for inline .track() callsTimelineBuilder typed track builder interfaces per track type (AnimationTrackBuilder, AudioTrackBuilder, etc.) with inline .track() support for keyframe animationAnimatorControllerBuilder: inline .track() for defining animation directly on states, support for TrackDescriptor arrays as clip sources, simplified exitTime (replaces separate hasExitTime flag)includeTriggers option — opt-in to hitting trigger/sensor colliders (skipped by default)Changed
AnimationTrackHandler → TimelineAnimationTrack, AudioTrackHandler → TimelineAudioTrack, ActivationTrackHandler → TimelineActivationTrack, ControlTrackHandler → TimelineControlTrack, MarkerTrackHandler → TimelineMarkerTrack, TrackHandler → TimelineTrackHandlerOrbitControls.fitCamera deprecated overload removed from type declarations (runtime still accepts Object3D for backwards compat — use fitCamera({ objects: [...] }) instead)Fixed
OrbitControls: programmatic camera transitions (e.g. fitCamera) no longer interrupted continuously during an ongoing drag — only at interaction startfitCamera with centerCamera: "y" producing incorrect camera elevation when camera was above the scene centerAnimator: switching runtimeAnimatorController now properly disposes the previous controllerAnimatorController.dispose() guard against missing mixerCursorFollow.snapToSurface incorrect property description removed Download Unity Plugin Install from NPM

WebXRImageTracking.imageTracked event — invoked every frame an image is tracked, with typed access to the tracked object instance:imageTracking.imageTracked.addEventListener(evt => {
console.log(evt.object, evt.image);
});
?stats URL parameter now also logs renderer info (DPR, window DPR, antialias, MSAA samples, drawing buffer resolution)WebXRImageTracking component now exposes an imageTracked UnityEvent Download Unity Plugin Install from NPM
