MLAPI Instantly Discconecting Photon Transport OnClientConnect

I'm able to host a game, but I can't for the life of me get a player to be able to join, everything is set up correctly, and that's being reflected on my dashboard, but they just won't connect (Yup, they have the same room name and they're in the same region). If anyone would be able to hold my hand through this that'd be amazing.

Here's my connection code:

Code (CSharp):

1. using System.Collections;
2. using System.Collections.Generic;
3. using UnityEngine;
4. using MLAPI;
5. using MLAPI.Connection;
6. using MLAPI.Messaging;
7. using MLAPI.Spawning;
8. using MLAPI.Transports.UNET;
9. using MLAPI.SceneManagement;
10. using UnityEngine.SceneManagement;
11. using UnityEngine.UI;
12.  
13. public class ConnectionManager : NetworkBehaviour
14. {
15.     public GameObject connectButtonPanel;
16.  
17.     public string ipAddress;
18.  
19.     UNetTransport transport;
20.  
21.     public Camera lobbyCamera;
22.     public Transform spawnPoint;
23.  
24.     public GameObject errorPanel;
25.  
26.     public MLAPI.Transports.PhotonRealtime.PhotonRealtimeTransport photonRealtimeTransport;
27.  
28.     private void Update()
29.     {
30.         if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Escape))
31.         {
32.             errorPanel.SetActive(false);
33.         }
34.     }
35.  
36.     public void StartHostPhoton()
37.     {
38.         //SceneManager.LoadScene("Main");
39.        
40.         var transp = photonRealtimeTransport;
41.  
42.      
43.         transp.RoomName = Random.Range(10000, 99999).ToString();
44.         ipAddress = transp.RoomName;
45.  
46.         NetworkManager.Singleton.StartHost();
47.  
48.         Debug.Log(NetworkManager.Singleton.IsClient);
49.         Debug.Log(NetworkManager.Singleton.isActiveAndEnabled);
50.         Debug.Log(NetworkManager.Singleton.IsConnectedClient);
51.         Debug.Log(NetworkManager.Singleton.IsHost);
52.         Debug.Log(NetworkManager.Singleton.NetworkConfig);
53.  
54.         NetworkSceneManager.SwitchScene("Lobby");
55.     }
56.  
57.     public void StartClientPhoton()
58.     {
59.         try
60.         {
61.             //SceneManager.LoadScene("Main");
62.             var transp = photonRealtimeTransport;
63.  
64.             Debug.Log(ipAddress);
65.             transp.RoomName = ipAddress;
66.  
67.             NetworkManager.Singleton.StartClient();
68.  
69.             Debug.Log(NetworkManager.Singleton.IsClient);
70.             Debug.Log(NetworkManager.Singleton.isActiveAndEnabled);
71.             Debug.Log(NetworkManager.Singleton.IsConnectedClient);
72.             Debug.Log(NetworkManager.Singleton.IsHost);
73.             Debug.Log(NetworkManager.Singleton.NetworkConfig);
74.             Debug.Log(transp.RoomName);
75.             Debug.Log(NetworkManager.Singleton.LocalClientId);
76.         }
77.         catch (System.Exception ex)
78.         {
79.             Debug.Log(ex);
80.         }
81.        
82.     }
83.  
84.  
85.     public void IPAddressChanged(string newAddress)
86.     {
87.         this.ipAddress = newAddress;
88.     }
89. }
90.  

I've attached the code and the error log below(?)

 

I'm facing the same disconnecting issue and found a related description in Boss Room's readme.

https://github.com/Unity-Technologi.../main/Documentation/Photon-Realtime/Readme.md
> IMPORTANT! There is a bug in MLAPI at the moment that could prevent users from connecting to each other through the editor.

It's inconvenient we can't test in the editor, so it would be nice if there is a solution.

 

Sorry I must have missed this thread. I looked through the editor log and it looks like the MLAPI host is disconnecting the client immediately. I don't think this is related to the issue korinVR linked. As long as you build / run / use the editor on the same device it should work totally fine.

I think what's happening here is that the connection approval is disconnecting the player immediately. Did you check whether you are able to connect when using an IP based transport such as UNet?
