Release v1.43.0 · googleforgames/agones

This is the 1.43.0 release of Agones.

In this release, we updated the supported Kubernetes version, added a new scheduled autoscaler, as well as Unity support for Counters and Lists..

Kubernetes 1.30 Support
With this release, the Kubernetes support matrix for Agones is now 1.28, 1.29 and 1.30.
Alpha support for ScheduledAutoscaler
This provides the ability to have Fleet autoscaler scheduling with the feature flag ScheduledAutoscaler, to allow you to schedule what level of autoscaling you would like on a schedule or between dates, giving you more control over your autoscaling needs.
Unity SDK: Counters and Lists
We now have support for GameServer Counters and Lists with our Unity SDK!
New Helm Installation Configuration Options
Two new installation options!

We made the parameters that control how fast we scale up and down GameServers configurable, so you can see how fast your Kubernetes control plane really is when spinning up lots of GameServer instances.

We also have new Helm configuration options that allow the use of the host network for the Agones controller and extensions for AWS EKS when using Cilium.
Beta support for Passthrough PortPolicy on GKE Autopilot
We’ve graduated Passthrough Port Policy support from Alpha to Beta on GKE Autopilot, which you can now enable using the feature flag AutopilotPassthroughPort.
