PUN 2 + Unity Beta (2018.3)

Jeffev

Hi,

I'm just starting to use Photon PUN for the first time. I noticed I couldn't get 2 players to join the same room using the Beta 2018.3.0b2. They both connected, but in 2 different rooms.

I went back to 2018.2 and it worked fine.

I was testing the PunBasics-Tutorial with no changes.

Is this a known issue?

Thanks!

I was just about to make a thread about this myself.

I'm using 2018.2 myself but it's happening to me too. Using join random room, but both players create their own rooms.

Edit: this also happens when joining a specific room by name, it won't join even if the room exists and creates a new one. Please help soon.

For me, the temporary fix is to hard set the region in the settings. Not the actual fix, but it kept things going.

I also managed to somehow fix this by going playing the cockpit demo and just pressing a lot of the buttons. I'm actually not sure what that did, but it works now.

hey guys, did you read the "Best Region Considerations"?
if you are using "ConnectAndJoinRandom" Utility Script make sure to have the same GameVersion as that script uses this:
PhotonNetwork.GameVersion = this.Version + "." + SceneManagerHelper.ActiveSceneBuildIndex;
@curreta why do you think that's a "temporary fix"? did you try "Dashboard Regions Filtering"?

@JohnTube I consider it temporary because it's not immediately clear why PUN would select 2 different regions with 2 clients on the same computer. It's fixed meaning I can continue working, but temporary as in I'm sure there's more to think about (like reading that doc fully).
