How to get the ping value ?

Hello,

I compute my ping like that : ping = peer.RoundTripTime/2; but It seems that it does not take the jitter in that value. How can I compute the ping in an efficient way ?

Thank you very much.

Don't calculate your ping or rountrip time yourself. We do that, excluding any delay except the network lag. Use: PhotonNetwork.networkingPeer.RoundTripTime.

It's a measure in milliseconds and averaged to some extend.

Is it the same as .GetPing() function? Another question is how to get each players ping in the room?

My question was not "If I had to get the ping myself or not". I just wanted to know how to get the ping from the API (in order to display it on the client)

Thanks
