PhotonNetwork.Disconnect() Problem

Hi. I have a problem. I wanna load a level after getting diconnected from a room. But i can't do this

PhotonNetwork.Disconnect();
Application.Loadlevel();

Because if i do that, i doesn't disconnect fast enough and loads the level without getting disconnected. I also can't use this

void OnPhotonPlayerDisconnected()
{
    Application.Loadlevel();
}

Since that message only gets send to people inside the room that isn't disconnected. So i'm lost and can't find a logic to this one. Could use a timer, but if people lag or there is a server lag or something, that isn't gonna work. How could i make this?

There are two ways, depending on if you want to visualize it and how:

1. Use OnDisconnectedFromPhoton instead of OnPhotonPlayerDisconnected (see the Enums.cs file in the photon unity networking/plugins folder)

2. What you need to do is wait for connected to no longer be true and once thats the case you load the new level. Below is a quick hacked together code, not sure if connected really is present like that as my PUN version ain't the stock one anymore but it should be simple enough to understand :)

   public void SwitchLevel (string level) { StartCoroutine (DoSwitchLevel(level)); }

   IEnumerator DoSwitchLevel (string level) { PhotonNetwork.Disconnect (); while (PhotonNetwork.connected) yield return null; Application.LoadLevel(level); }

4 years later and luckily it still works flawless

public void OnDisconnectedFromPhoton()  
{  
    Debug.Log("OnPhotonPlayerDisconnected");  
}

thanks

If anyone is reading this in 2019, I have used this great answer to create a similar solution after the latest PUN2 upgrade v2.16

I've been struggling with this issue for the past 5 hours without any success, thank you so much, you are a Legend!

seven years later from this post and this helped with a problem i had today, disconnecting and reconnecting when the application goes into background, that coroutine rocks!

Am I missing something? When I do this I get stuck in the loop forever...

        PhotonNetwork.Disconnect();  
        while (PhotonNetwork.IsConnected)  
        {  
            Debug.Log("In loop");  
            yield return null;  
        }  
        SceneManager.LoadScene(0);

I can't break out of the loop.
