[6.0.0] - 2021-12-31

This update is a big refresh of API. Most notably, everything that was too transparent/magical has been reworked to be more to-the-face. (How it looks in Resources/Introloop, how it magically look for nearby AudioSource to be the template, etc.)

There are quite a lot of breaking changes especially involving everything that was required to be put in Resources folder. Almost an entire documentation website has been rewritten to teach the new API. Now Introloop has 0 mention to Resources folder. Welcome to the future.

Lastly, minimum version has been moved to 2019.4 LTS. Asset Store is now moving along with editor's LTS cycle, only accepting new submission on the lowest LTS and accepting updates from the most recent fallen off LTS.

2018 LTS is already going away, and next in queue is 2019 LTS. I had also evaluated that 2019 LTS is the best version for publishing packages right now. Therefore, Introloop is moving to minimum 2019 LTS in this version.

Added

"Template Source" field is now visible in IntroloopPlayer Inspector and is also serialized. Previously, the documentation instructs user to just add an AudioSource to the same game object as IntroloopPlayer for the script to transparently pick it up. I feel that is too magical, it is better to be explicit.
Added new Play overload without IntroloopAudio in the argument. This overload instead uses connected IntroloopAudio in the inspector instead. (Also a new feature.) These are also great with UnityEvent, a slot to connect IntroloopAudio will appear in the Inspector when connected.
"Default Introloop Audio" field added and exposed in Inspector. Allowing you to pre-connect IntroloopAudio which is used when calling Play overload without input IntroloopAudio in the arguments.
DefaultIntroloopAudio property getter/setter added. This works like Clips of AudioSource, setting it then calling Play next to play it.
IntroloopAudioUnityEvent class added, which is just a subclass of UnityEvent<IntroloopAudio>. It can be used to perform dynamic invoke with IntroloopAudio specified from script.
All samples are upgraded to 2019.4 LTS, getting rid of all deprecated components.
All samples are refactored and now better for learning.
Offline documentation and website update.
Huge code documentation refactor and formatting. (Notably, it is using <para></para> correctly. No more wall of texts.)

Changed

"Template Source" and "Singleton Instance" wording has been used more consistently in the documentation and code. They are also made more visible to the programmer, such as template source now being shown on Inspector instead of silently finding the component to be a template.
Singleton instance reading AudioSource configuration from prefab in Resources/Introloop folder with a specific name has been deprecated. Instead, call the new API IntroloopPlayer.SetSingletonInstanceTemplateSource(AudioSource templateSource) before the first access to the singleton instance. The old way was too magical with too many magic assets that can't be moved involved, nowadays with Addressable Asset System, I don't want to touch Resources folder anymore if possible.
ApplyAudioSourceCharacteristics on IntroloopPlayer is renamed to just ApplyAudioSource.
Subclassed IntroloopPlayer now use the same name Instance property to get its singleton instance, instead of Get.
Minimum version is now 2019.4 LTS. Being at modern LTS version positions this plugin better for the future.
IntroloopPlayer now can be created without right clicking on AudioClip. The created asset has empty AudioClip slot. Documentation now explain that you need to connect the clip on your own after creating it.
IntroloopPlayer is now created with [CreateAssetMenu] instead of manual ScriptableObject instantiation, possible because we are not supporting version 2017 anymore.
package.json manifest author section changed to be consistent with my other products. (Unity Package Manager group assets under the same author in the same dropdown.)

Fixed

Fixed a bug which IntroloopPlayer.ApplyAudioSourceCharacteristics does not correctly copy curve version of spatial blend, reverb zone mix, and spread. (The hard constant values version overwritten the curve copy.)
Fix errors in "IntroloopDemo-Positional" sample scene.

Removed

public static InstantiatePlayer<T> in IntroloopPlayer became private protected.

[5.0.1] - 2019-11-25

I made a mistake of not including documentation and samples in the previous version, the Asset Store Tools can't include unimported folders. They are now included in .zip form instead, but you need to unzip them manually until Asset Store Tools could publish hidden folders.
