Additions 🎉

• Added CesiumAzureMapsRasterOverlay.
• Added the interface ICesium3DTilesetLifecycleEventReceiver: when an implementation is registered on a tileset (with ACesium3DTileset::SetLifecycleEventReceiver), its functions will be called at various points in a tile's lifecycle, like when a mesh component is created, when a material is instanced, when the tile changes visibility, when it is unloaded, etc.

Fixes 🔧

• Fixed a bug where CesiumCreditSystem would not filter out empty credits, resulting in duplicate on-screen delimiters.
• Fixed a problem where multi-selecting UCesiumGlobeAnchorComponent could cause the selected components to teleport to 0 degrees longitude and 0 degrees latitude. Now, the geospatial position and orientation fields are hidden while multi-selecting.

Breaking Changes 📣

• Removed support for Unreal Engine 5.3. Unreal Engine 5.4 or later is now required.
• FCesiumPrimitiveMetadata::GetPropertyAttributeIndices is now deprecated. Use GetPropertyAttributes to directly get the FCesiumPropertyAttributes instead.

Additions 🎉

• Added UCesiumPrimitiveMetadataBlueprintLibrary::GetPropertyAttributes to retrieve the property attributes from a FCesiumPrimitiveMetadata.
• Added UCesiumPropertyTexturePropertyBlueprintLibrary::GetInteger64. Although 64-bit integers aren't directly supported by property textures, this enables the lossless retrieval of 32-bit unsigned integers.

Fixes 🔧

• Fixed a bug where CesiumEllipsoidFunctions was inaccessible outside of the plugin.

Preview Release: Cesium for Unreal v2.16.1 for Unreal Engine 5.6

This is the first release of Cesium for Unreal for Unreal Engine 5.6. It is designated a Preview because we tried to get it out as quickly as possible, so it's not tested as well as a normal release.

Note: This release does not currently support Apple platforms (macOS, iOS). They will be supported in a future release.
