Custom code for handling Lobby Chat messages?

Fri, 01 May 2020 15:55:15 +0000

Is there any sort of way to hook up a custom Lobby adaptor to @override handleChatRequest? For example I would like to create some sort of message filter on the server, so I would like to intercept the message before it is routed to all of the other connected clients in the lobby. Thank you

I am getting the CONNECTION_ERR as response when trying to connect to the AppWarpS2 Server hosted in my local system.
Both android client and the Java server is connected to same WiFi network. I have also tried to host the server on an EC2 instance in AWS and got the same result.

The SDK version that I use at the client side are
App42_ANDROID_SDK_4.0.jar
App42MultiPlayerGamingSDK.jar (version 2.3).

I am calling initialize() with appKey, serverHost and serverPort.

SDK version being used at the server side is

App42_JAVA_SDK_2.7.jar

AppWarpS2_2.0.jar

I request you to please help me out here.

Hi,

We have checked this on our side and it is working fine.

The log in your code is not printing anything because the object(eventObj.getJoinedUsers()) is an array and to print this you need to iterate in a loop and print single element as follows:

eventObj.getJoinedUsers()[0]

Answered: Wrap client side callback to async - await

Tue, 21 Feb 2017 09:36:31 +0000

Hi,

The Server calls involved in AppWarp is socket level calls where client has to listen to certain port for receiving any message from the server. It can only be done asynchronously in background so that it does not block your main thread. That is why we have provided separate callbacks for recieving the data for any requests made by client. It improves the user experience and it does not create any app hang scenario.

Please let me know if you have any further queries.

Thu, 29 Dec 2016 07:55:36 +0000

Hi Aditya,

Greetings!!!!

VirtualUser is a concept where you can create a bot user on AppwarpS2 so than if there is a single player you can play a game or do communication.

As Its the concept of AppWarpS2 Server where you can create the same using the code snippet you have shared with us. AppWarpS2 server is written in Java language and you can override the same.

It supports will process all the request coming across multiple client SDK platform like Android, iOS, windows,Unity etc.

For iOS App you need only client iOS SDK and do write your game business logic on server in java language.So you can create VirtualUser irrespective of client platform.

Let me know if it helps.

Wed, 26 Oct 2016 09:24:19 +0000

Hi,

Each zone on the server is like different app and it is always recommended of using one server with one zone for one app. However, unity client can connect to any particular zone by passing its corresponding app_key while initialising AppWarp Client in your app. You get app_key when you create a zone from AppWarpS2 admin portal.

Please let me know if you have any further queries.

Hi,

Yes, it is possible.

Please follow the following steps:

1. Connect user to AppWarpS2 server

2. On successfully connection, call joinRoom API

3. If joinRoom fails then call createTurnRoom API

4. In onCreateRoomDone callback, call joinRoom API if room created successfully

This way user will be joining a room if available on the server otherwise he will create and join.

Answered: Create TurnBase Room With User Waiting Functionality

Thu, 11 Aug 2016 13:11:46 +0000

Hi BiCubic,

Greetings!!!

Yes, Its possible using AppWarpS2 where you can override default AppWarpS2 functionality by writing own game business logic.

You can go through with the AppWrapS2 Documentation Guide.
Here you find how you override default Adapters of AppWarpS2.

AppWarpS2 also provides the Virtual User concept..Here you can create virtual user in a Room if Room has less players require to play a Game. You also write AI logic for Virtual User Moves in your game.

You can mantain Game State of your Game. Override onTimerTic ,and write logic for addition and removal of virtual player. Also write the logic of Game Start.
By Overriding handleMoveRequest you can validate moves send by the players and use AI logic for virtual player move.

You can write own game business logic there based on your useCases.

Sun, 17 Apr 2016 04:31:44 +0000

Hi SzWin,

Greetings!! Hope you are doing good.

As AppWarp works on real Time principal, we have apply data limit over the message. When the number of players is the room exceeded there is more data to be sent and latency will increases.

Currently there is no way to send data more than data limit in one message by modifying AppConfig.json file.You can divide the message in chunks and sent to the same to the players.

Let me know the what kind of data you need to sent, it is simple text or Json file or other, than I will be happy to suggest more ways to accomplish the same.

Thu, 25 Feb 2016 09:19:11 +0000

Hi Nugyen,

You can mantain your own collection with the roomID at ZoneAdapter level. And can use following ways to release the resources.

Using Zone RPC : When a a room is destroyed from server side user will get the update notification of Room deletion. At that time you can call zone RPC from client side that do all the cleaning. On AppWarp at Zone Adapter you define that RPC API and clean the resources of by validating the collection you have maintain against the room ID.
Scheduling : You can create your own scheduler at Zone level that runs after a periodic time and fetch all available rooms and refresh the collection and clean the resources.

Let me know if it helps.
