Can't see other player

in Photon Unity Networking (PUN)

When I run two instances of the built project, the players can see each other. But, when my friend (who has the exact same built project) plays it, I cannot see him. It's like we're on different servers or something. Is there any way I can fix this?

    Yes. Make sure you use the same region, same AppId and Game Version to begin with.

    This is a Matchmaking Checklist, that should help fix this problem.

    @Tobias Yes thank you! I figured it out and made the region a fixed region instead of photon finding the best one.

    PUN has a setting for the Dev Region. It's a fixed region but only used for Dev Builds. Might be a good compromise.

    Don't forget to remove the Fixed Region before release and set up a Region Whitelist (in the Dashboard).
