Don't destory GameObject on Player Disconnect

DavidHidvegi

So I'm having a Scene in Unity where all players (6 players) spwan a Character with Photonnetwork.Instantiate(), and I want all the Characters to be in the Scene until the game ends (60 seconds) even if any player disconnects. So obviously as I checked if any player disconnects his Character gets destroyed in the Scenes of the other players.

Is there any option to keep them in the Scene with Photon code? Like DontDestroyOnDisconnect() or something?

I'm not extremely familiar with Photon, but I don't think a function like that exists. However, you'd just have to change the owner of the game object upon disconnection, unless it doesn't give you enough time before it's destroyed. Check that out and see if it suits you.

If you instantiate them with: PhotonNetwork.InstantiateSceneObject() they won't be destroyed, this is how we instantiate our NPCs.

Thanks for the fast answers It worked out with PhotonNetwork.InstantiateSceneObject()

Hi @ConceptFactory,

Thank you for choosing Photon!

How do you instantiate those prefabs?
What PUN version are you using?
