Callback for when attempting to create a room but room already exists?

belome

I read some suggestions to get the entire list of rooms to check if the desired room name already exists, but I don't want the user to have to download the entire list of rooms.

Is there a callback for when attempting to create a room and it already exists?

public override void OnPhotonJoinRoomFailed(object[] codeAndMsg) does not seem to trigger when a room already exists.

Thanks!

Hi @belome,

[...] but I don't want the user to have to download the entire list of rooms.

This happens automatically in the background.

Yes, there is a callback that gets called when creating a room fails. Please take a look at the example below:

void OnPhotonCreateRoomFailed(object[] codeAndMsg)
{
    // codeAndMsg[0] is short ErrorCode. codeAndMsg[1] is string debug msg. 
}
