    Currently, when using the chat feature, both users have to be online (understandable) and upon receive it raises an event. Will it be possible to get the chat history of a relationship without having to store it for each and every friend one user has across the game scenes (because otherwise they would be lost when going back to the menu)?

    Hi,

    The documentation should be more clear about this but the message feature, but it is not intended to be a fully fledged chat solution but rather a quick fire and forget messaging system. For a full chat feature you can look into Vivox Text as a solution.

    Otherwise you would need to almost build yourself a storage queue for incoming messages as mentioned above.
