I have downloaded the new version of Nakama Unity SDK. As I see, the socket opening process changed. How can I set the main thread usage parameter using the new method?

Should I downgrade?

@yusuf You can still use `NewSocket` extension method on the `IClient` type of the Nakama client:

```csharp
client.NewSocket(useMainThread: true)

```

This behaviour has not changed since it was added. You must make sure you add the Nakama client as a `.unitypackage` to your project or add it via the Unity Package Manager:

```auto
https://github.com/heroiclabs/nakama-unity.git?path=/Packages/Nakama#v3.13.0

```

Hope that helps.
