Description

This PR upgrades NetworkTransforms inside the project to reduce bandwidth cost.

Prefabs/ scene objects that had Synchronize Transform enabled inside their NetworkObject component that didn't need to synchronize position have now that flag disabled. This is particularly useful if the NetworkObject is used more for management related tasks and has no spatial synchronization needs. This will reduce initial synchronization payloads.

CharacterPrefab prefab which all PCs & NPCs derive from now have on their NetworkTransform:

• sync only x and z positions
• sync only z rotation
• have half float precision enabled

The savings as seen from a client are as follows:

Pre:

Only syncing x and z positions explicitly:

Only syncing x and z positions, y rotation, and half float precision enabled:

Only syncinc x and z positions, half float precision enabled, quat syncing and quat compression enabled:

Bandwidth costs considered, since only the y position is modified per frame in a worst case scenario, it is more cost efficient to only: sync x and z positions, y rotation, and enable half float precision. Individual NetworkTransform packet sizes are reduced from 21 bytes down to 16 bytes with this optimization.
