NATIVE PLUGINS for Unity: iOS, Android [Need Prime31 / Easy Mobile / Stans Assets replacement??]

I think, I got what you mean.
Can you please share your rate app settings to have a look and reproduce on my end? Basically, you have the auto rate app triggered before the other alert showed up. Is it so?

 

Basically have the App rating pop up by:


You can trigger this on a new build & run, and then leave the app when it pops up, come back in it, app essentially is frozen due to the popup you cannot get rid of it

I'm on latest
Cross-Platform Native Plugins : Essential Kit (Mobile - iOS & Android)




Edit: the custom dialog i have pop up shows this issue with the rating dialog as well, so you can test it both ways

 

Thanks for the details!
I was able to reproduce the issue. I'm on it.

 

Awesome, please send me a fix in DM I need it for the update asap

Thanks

 

Sure! We are able to figure it out!
I can say this is so far the best bug we encountered
This has nothing to do with rate app but if you try showing any two alert dialogs one after another this seem to happen.
The reason is a bit tricky

We fire callbacks on unity's main thread via CallbackDispatcher's LateUpdate. As soon as you click on a button, we trigger c#'s callback and queue an action to CallbackDispatcher. And in the callback we call dismiss of the alert dialog.

But here as unity is in pause state when an alert dialog is shown, It seems to get dead locked as callback action queued in late update won't get called until dismiss is called.

Anyways, we will find a solution for this problem asap!
Once again thanks for an awesome bug report

 

Glad I can be of help, looking forward to the fix thank you

 

Hello.
Please help me, I can't compile the project, it gives errors like in the screenshot. I'm new to Unity, do you have a larger installation guide that solves this problem?

 

Please replace AndroidDialog.cs file in "...Runtime/NativeUI/Android" folder.

Thanks for the bug report

In your preferences try checking and unchecking the SDKs (I normally do them all)
Because this is your main issue for that error i think -> The SDK directory is not writable (C:\Program Files\Unity\Hub\Editor\2020.3.41f1\Editor\Data\PlaybackEngines\AndroidPlayer\SDK)

 

Copy build-tools/29.0.2 from your system's android sdk to Unity's Android SDK build-tools folder.

 

It worked! Thanks for your help

 

2.5.1 available on Asset Store!

 

Hello again. I saw in your documentation that you can get the value from the webview. But I can’t understand how I can do this, do I need to get a string into a variable after opening the page, or can I pull out the HTML already from the view?

 

We can evaluate via your javascript code. By that it means, you can pass info to your java script code(once after you load an url of your webpage) and then get the result once your java script code process it. Please have a look at RunJavaScript method.

 

Hello,

The email share option does not seem to work on iOS when they do not have "Mail" app setup, even though they have others such as gmail etc.

Is this a bug?

Code ->

Code (CSharp):

1.     [SerializeField] bool canSendMail;
2.  
3.     private void Awake()
4.     {
5.        canSendMail = MailComposer.CanSendMail();
6.    }
7.  
8.        if(!canSendMail)
9.         {
10.             Debug.Log($"We cannot send email...");

Fingers crossed this is a bug and not a limitation

Thank you!

 

If CanSendMail returns false, the system don't have a service to share email. This usually happens if there is no mail setup on the device. This is the limitation on the os.

 

Ah, maybe one day Apple will cease being lame and stop 'forcing' people to use their apps.
Thank you

 

Hi, I'm trying to update this plugin and follow the instruction from the tutorial pages.
But there are errors upon import which I cannot solved by myself.


I can't find any information of these PBX classes, which libraries I should include. (I'm on Android build target at this time, but I have IOS build support installed)


There are still classes duplicates even I have deleted the CoreLibrary and EssensialKit as instructed in tutorial. Which class I should remove?

Thanks

 

Hi,
Can you try deleting Assets/Plugins/VoxelBusters and try importing the plugin again? Looks like some files didn't get cleared before importing leading to duplicates.

 

It works! Deleting the whole plugin folder clear all the errors without causing other issues. Thanks

 

Hi there,
We are trying to update one of our old games and we face some issue when importing the latest version of Unity in-app purchasing and Voxel Busters Native plugins (latest version too):

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2. FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
3.  
4. * What went wrong:
5. Execution failed for task ':launcher:checkReleaseDuplicateClasses'.
6. > 1 exception was raised by workers:
7.   java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.RuntimeException: Duplicate class com.android.billingclient.BuildConfig found in modules billing-4.0.0-runtime.jar (:billing-4.0.0:) and com.android.billingclient.billing-5.0.0-runtime.jar (:com.android.billingclient.billing-5.0.0:)
8.   Duplicate class com.android.billingclient.api.AccountIdentifiers found in modules billing-4.0.0-runtime.jar (:billing-4.0.0:) and com.android.billingclient.billing-5.0.0-runtime.jar (:com.android.billingclient.billing-5.0.0:)

Could you guys help us with this one? We haven't found a way to delete billing-4.0.0-runtime.jar...

(edit Tried turning everything off but... does not work.

Also, saw that when building, showed gradle 4.0.1, which for unity 2021 is... weird? Tried to use gradle 6.1.1, which is supported by Unity as stated on unity docs, but got this message:

Code (CSharp):

1. Android gradle plugin version is compatible with queries tag. The build won't fail for queries tag in manifest...

So, we must use an old gradle version=?

Thanks in advance.

 

Well, if you use anything above 3.6.3 (Android gradle plugin version) and 5.6 (Gradle version) will work. However, lets first find out what is the issue.

As per the error, it says it found two libraries with similar classes. This usually happens if you use both unity iap and our billing feature too at the same time. We need latest billing client version which is 5.0.0.

First try disabling the unity's IAP if you are want to use ours (find out some orphan folders which might be added by unity).

Once we resolve the duplicate issue, we will see the gradle version issue. For queries tag to get detected we need the project to use versions which support queries tag. Share me the current gradle, android plugin versions and unity version to help you out.

 

Hello, I am using Essential Kit v.2.5.1 and Unity 2022.1.21f1.
And if I turn on Essential Kit, my Android/iOS apps only draw the first frame, then it hangs.
In editor it’s works.

 

May not be actually an issue of our plugin as we don't touch any of your root activity or initiate on startup. Can you please share me the apk with any of our demo scenes to give a test on our end?

 

Can I write you an Email?

 

Or Telegram may be? It would be more convenient.

 

How about discord? Please ping us on discord. You can find the discord support link on our asset store product page description.

 

Hey, the essentials plugin doesn't seem to be requesting Contact permission on Android...

 

I get the follow error when trying to show contacts from the address book:

Code (CSharp):

1. Unity: Request to read contacts failed with error. Error: Error Domain:  Code: 0 Description: Not authorized to access contacts database.
2.     VoxelBusters.CoreLibrary.<>c__DisplayClass9_0`1:<InvokeOnMainThread>b__0()
3.     VoxelBusters.CoreLibrary.CallbackDispatcher:LateUpdate()
4.  

 

Ok so it looks like AddressBook.ReadContactsWithUserPermission() doesn't perform as expected on Android. You have to call RequestContactAccess() first for some reason?

 

It is actually a utility method built on top of RequestContactAccess. Let us schedule a test and fix if it doesn't work as expected.

 

Hi,
Any update on the upcoming feature for cloud migration? Thanks

 

Hey Sorry for not updating! We already made a fix which is working fine. But its scheduled for next release.
In-case if you want to try it now, you can ping us on our discord.

Basically, we fetch the available snapshots on init and save it as a value for key named ESSENTIAL_KIT_CLOUD_SERVICES_OTHER_SNAPSHOTS_BACKUP. More info once we chat on discord

 

Hey, The Sharing vis SMS works great on iOS however on Android it always returns as User Cancelled before even prompting to share... Any idea what could be causing this?

Code (CSharp):

1.             MessageComposer composer = MessageComposer.CreateInstance();
2.             composer.SetRecipients(phoneNumbers.ToArray());
3.             composer.SetSubject("Subject");
4.             composer.SetBody("Body");
5.             composer.SetCompletionCallback((result, error) =>

 

If it returns quickly, it usually means there is no service to serve it. Can you try removing the Subject and try once to see if it works?

 

Glad to know it is already added!
I would like to be a tester. But I'm sorry I don't have Discord and not familiar with it, so I've sent you an email instead.

 

Hi, new user of the plugin here. The features available are awesome. I just get the plugin setup, but I got error when I tried to make a build.

I am in the middle of the project when I got the plugin, so I did have some other Google official packages imported. Such as the Android in-app review package. I have also implemented my own Google Cloud save. It would be best if I do not have to restart a clear project..

The error log is:

Ok, got it.
You don't need to start from scratch. Recently, we have made compatibility with cloud save too so that devs can migrate from other plugins in the middle of the project.

Regarding the error, it's because you enabled both our billing services feature and unity's IAP mostly. If that's the case, please make sure you use only one of those. Either our's or Unity's. Also, if you don't use Unity IAP, cross check if any orphan folders of unity iap in your project. If you don't use our's, disable the feature in our settings.

 

Hi. Your asset looks great.
Can I set a custom push notification sound via the asset?
If it is possible, I will definitely buy it.

 

It's possible to set custom sound but the sound file need to exist in StreamingAssets folder.

 

Thank you for your quick reply. I bought the asset.

 

When I install the plugin to a new project, Unity is asking me to add the npmjs scoped registry. Is it normal? Should I add it or not? And may I ask what is the registry for? Thank you for your help.

 

When using Cloud Services, if I checked Synchronize on load, would OnSynchronizeComplete in my script be called? Another question is if my script with OnSynchronizeComplete hasn't been loaded when Synchronize on load is completed, how could I catch the call back of Synchronize on load?

 

In Rate My App, does the Min Hours option count the time elapsed in-game only or the time since the app is installed?

I am sorry for the posting several questions at once. I am new to the plugin so I am still trying to figure out everything. Thanks a lot for your help and making this great plugin.

 

@QuilloGames Please contact our discord support for quick communication.

 

Hello, I bought essential kit 3 days ago for the cloud saving solution, but I'm unable to use it in a reliable manner. I've found that whenever I save offline on Android, even if I reopen the app, the saving function gets permanently broken, regardless of me saving and sync'ing online. I've attached the reproduction method below:

This behaviour can be reproduced in the Demo that comes with essentialkit. Authenticate() -> Synchronize() -> SetLong("dif", 5) -> Synchronize() -> Go offline -> SetLong("dif",7) -> Synchronize() -> Restart app -> Go online -> Authenticate() -> Synchronize() -> SetLong("dif", 9) -> Synchronize() -> Reinstall app -> Authenticate() -> Synchronize() -> GetLong("dif") -> Returns 5. So even reopening the app online from the beginning and saving a new value got ignored

Could you explain to me how to fix this issue so I can have reliable cloud saving? If not, do you have an ETA on when this'll be fixed, so I know if essential kit can still be useful for me?

 

Let me answer it step by step

1. Authenticate() -> Synchronize() -> SetLong("dif", 5) -> Synchronize() => (Cloud, Local) = (5, 5)
2. -> Go offline -> SetLong("dif",7) -> Synchronize() -> (Cloud, Local) = (5, 7)
3. Restart app -> Go online -> Authenticate() -> Synchronize() => You get a callback saying cloud value for "diff" has a conflict. You need to call CloudServices.TryGetCloudAndLocalCacheValues to get (Cloud, Local) = (5, 7) and set the value which you see is valid via CloudServices.SetLong. If you don't set your local value here to CloudServices setters for diff, it considers the cloud value when you call GetLong, i.e, it returns 5.
4. SetLong("dif", 9) -> Synchronize() => (Cloud, Local) = (9, 9)
5. Reinstall app -> Authenticate() -> Synchronize() -> GetLong("dif") => (Cloud, Local) = (9, 9)
6. Returns 5 => This should be 9

If it returns 5, something else is wrong. We will do a quick test with the above steps and get back to you at the earliest possible.

Only thing I doubt is at step 4, where the issue can happen if the sync fails or you quit the above before synchronise getting finished/processed. You can ignore steps 1-3 as you have set in step 4.

Cheers,
VB Team

 

Thanks for taking a look at it. To clarify, I've waited for the Synchronize() callback every time, before closing the app or even doing other operations, so it was always finished. Step 1 is to show online saving was working, step 2 is an offline save test, steps 3-4-5-6 are there to show online saving no longer works after an offline save
