room properties??

proteinbeer

Hi all,

I'm struggling here.
When I used photon when Unity was still in 3 version

PhotonNetwork.CreateRoom(roomName, true, true, 4, customRoomProperties, roomPropsInLobby);

existed. (and I have a project with that)
But now it got removed!!
I found OpCreateRoom() but the comment there was too scary to use.

Below is what I have from here -> https://doc.photonengine.com/en/realtime/current/reference/matchmaking-and-lobby

string[] roomPropsInLobby = { "map", "ai" };
Hashtable customRoomProperties = new Hashtable() { { "map", 1 } };
CreateRoom(roomName, true, true, 4, customRoomProperties, roomPropsInLobby);

There is no PhotonNetwork attached on CreateRoom().
I'm super lost.

All I want to do is make a room with some properties so that I can show rooms in seperate lobbies so users can choose the rooms like Death match, Time attack or something.

Could I get some help on this one?

You hardly need OpCreateRoom. it's mostly for internal use.
CreateRoom is member of PhotonNetwork. So PhotonNetwork.CreateRoom(...) should be ok.
Check PUN demos for more PhotonNetwork.CreateRoom usage examples.

Oh customRoomProperties is what I needed. thanks.
It is so simple now than before!

option.customRoomProperties = new ExitGames.Client.Photon.Hashtable();
option.customRoomProperties.Add(property.mode, modeIndex);
option.customRoomProperties.Add(property.scene, sceneIndex);

option.customRoomPropertiesForLobby = new String[2];
option.customRoomPropertiesForLobby[0] = property.mode;
option.customRoomPropertiesForLobby[1] = property.scene;

PhotonNetwork.CreateRoom(roomName, option, null);
