Description

Looking at https://github.com/playcanvas/engine/blob/master/src/net/http.js#L485

For example, returning a status code of 204 is a valid response (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status/204) but http.js would deem it to be an error and attempt to retry if enabled.

Research direction

Open src/net/http.js at line 485 and inspect how successful HTTP status codes are identified. Confirm the expected handling of status 204 and how retry behavior depends on that classification. Done means a valid 204 response is not treated as an error or retried.
