How to check and join a room with a specific name

AlexLukanga

I created a room with a name, and I would like to join this room

Hi @AlexLukanga,

Thank you for choosing Photon!

Just call JoinRoom(roomName) and implement callbacks for success & failure (e.g. game is full, game is closed, game does not exist).
There is also JoinOrCreate method which attempts to join then, if the room is not found, creates it.
