Lock single property

Question

Hello,

Can I lock a single property of the room so other users can't update that property but they can update other properties? Or is it "lock all properties"?

And when the property is locked and lets say the app crashes (so my unlock code does not execute) will this property by lock to that specific user forever?

 

I am thinking of using the properties to control who sit where in a card  game (by locking seat)

Thank you

Yes - you can lock properties a subset of the properties instead of the entire set.

Once the user disconnects or leaves the room - any property locked by it is unlocked automatically by the server.

Take a look at the following links for more details
