I'm writing a Lobby for a multiplayer game, in which user can choose which room they'd like to join, or create a new room.
When a new room is created a server side extension is attached to it:
Code: Select all
var gameRoom:Object = new Object()
gameRoom.name = sfServer.myUserName+"'s Room";
gameRoom.maxUsers = 2
gameRoom.maxSpectators = 0
gameRoom.isGame = true
gameRoom.isTemp = true
gameRoom.extension = {name:"fourinarow",script:"fourinarow.as"}
sfServer.createRoom(gameRoom)
Then, in the extension, the initializetion function creates a room variable and sets its value:
Code: Select all
rVars=[{name:RV_ROOM_STATUS, val:ROOM_STATUS_WAITING}];
_server.setRoomVariables(_server.getCurrentRoom(), null, rVars);
When i run two instances of the Lobby and i use one of them to create a new room, the new room appears on the second Lobby instance and its variable are OK. But, if i run just ONE instance of the Lobby, create a new room through it, and ONLY THEN run a second instance of the Lobby, the room list that appears on the second Lobby contains the new room but not its vars.
When i saw the SmartFox's trace it appears like when a new user logs on to the server and receives the rooms list, the room variables don't come with it.
How can i load dynamically created room variables? Aren't they supposed to be sent automatically to each user logging in?
Thank you!
