Hi @shawnryanbruno

Thanks for pointing out that issue in our readme, you're right there is no BCClient folder, this will be corrected. The readme is referring to the folder contained in the latest .zip release file, current latest release is 5.1.0

We have a couple example projects that use Unreal 5.3 and the brainCloud client compiles with no issues there. I will need some more information to better assist with the issue you're having.

Did you get the brainCloud library from the release .zip file or did you download a copy of the repository?

Can you guide me through the steps you took to get to this issue?

@Paul-Winterhalder Amazing! This is perfect for my needs-- thanks so much Paul.

A good way to handle failure besides retrying in code, is to schedule another script to run 1 minute later that will basically repeat the same action.

It's not. Just knowing a playerId is really not important as it's only a unique identifier for another player and nothing more than that.

Use API blocking in the cloud code category to block all apis from client that write your user entities. Then clients can only write their entities using cloud-code and there you have the total control

No problem, glad I could help.

For the moment we do not have any official documentation on room server managers except for that repository. Do you plan to make your own room server manager? If so we can probably put together some documentation for that. Otherwise for now, the only request you have to account for is that POST request to /findRoomServer as detailed in the source code for the Room Server Manager DevTool. This DevTool is intended to be used to test room servers more easily and have access to their logs faster. But if you plan to make an actual room server manager that can launch and manage multiple servers at once, you can use this tool as a base and build up on it to add logic for managing multiple server instances.

I believe this worked @Steve-Jones -- thanks so much for the tip!

I believe that you can integrate the brainCloud C++ library as a third-party library within Gamemaker. brainCloud C++ library can be found here -- https://github.com/getbraincloud/braincloud-cpp

Hi,

Has your dockerhub team invited the "braincloudhost" user to your team with read-only privileges so that we can retrieve your custom image?

The email address of that account is paulw AT getbraincloud.com.

Hope that helps!

Paul.
[PS - Once you've done that - ping us here or in the support chat. We need to manually access the request these days <- Recent change to how dockerhub works.]

@kuabs Exactly. Always use braincloud server time for features that rely on time passed. Also, if you want to modify your recharge rate during gameplay, you might want to consider keeping it in a global entity instead so every user will be affected by it.

Update - we have patched this issue in our Public BaaS.

The API call is now blockable via API Blocking - but it's also disabled by default now (via the core API itself). There's a new compatibility flag (that is by default enabled for all existing apps) that preserves the old functionality.

Paul.

Also looking for this type of functionality, so id +1 this feature request

And brainCloud 5.1 is now live. Let us know what you think!

Hi Alessio,

I have a suggestion.

Why not create a global chat channel called "lobbyListeners".

Then - when a user is viewing the lobbies - have them connect to and listen to the lobbyListeners channel.

Then you don't need to maintain a global entity at all. Whenever you create a lobby or delete it - send an event to lobbyListeners - and it will automatically send it to everyone who has registered for the channel.

Would that work? (or is there a part of your use case that I am missing?)

Paul.

Update: Fixed in the latest release

Thanks Joanne 🙂

Hello Andrey and thank you for your inquiry,

For an approach like this I would recommend grabbing the matchState as a Dictionary<string,object> and then making a new instance of JsonMatchState and filling in each field one at a time.

An example of this would look like to get one of the fields:

JsonMatchState matchState = new JsonMatchState(); var matchState = data["matchState"] as Dictionary<string, object>; matchState.turnNumber = (int) matchState["turnNumber"];

Hope this helps and please let us know if you have further questions or inquiries about this.

thank you

That said - any system you want can be constructed with cloud code.

Hope that helps!
