The PlayerName (a.k.a. NickName) is available for this and a built-in property. You don't have to set your own.
There is a script "show player info" or similar, which you should be able to use as basis, too.

Hi sorry for lifting this again after such a long time. But is it still true that you should be able to get the nickname of the opponents in the room? Because I cant gets this to work, it is also not working in the Memory Demo, it only returns an empty string. And it seems kind of ugly to send the names as custom properties.

Thanks

Hi @Ann,

Please check that in "LoadBalancingClient.cs" file you should have this.enterRoomParamsCache.PlayerProperties = this.LocalPlayer.AllProperties; instead of this.enterRoomParamsCache.PlayerProperties = this.LocalPlayer.CustomProperties;.

Thanks @JohnTube That worked!

Just stumbled upon exactly the same issue, and that line of code change fixed it. Line 1884 in the SDK I have. Thank you. Will that be fixed/updated in a future release of the SDK?

Hi @BearHugMark,

I'm glad you were able to find a solution for your problem.
Yes this will be fixed in an upcoming update.
