    I'm writing an extension to NetworkManager to help handle/create an automatic matchmaking drop-in/drop-out sorta game setup, but I notice OnMatchJoined isn't virtual so I can't override it - yet every other "on..." function is virtual. Is there a reason for this?

    Hi Everyone,
    Thanks for reporting this, the missing virtual keyword is an oversight on that one function. I'll put the fix in, though it wont come out until a future version of Unity.

    As a workaround you can supply your own callback to the JoinMatch() function, just be sure to then call the OnMatchJoined() callback from within your custom callback.

    Future version means it could be 5.3, 5.4, or 6.0.

    Then we can assume it's going to be in 6.0.

    Are you kidding me? How can such an oversight slip through the Q&A and still be not fixed after this was already reported here on 30th September? This should take 30 seconds to fix!

    This change missed the 5.3 submission window which is why it never made it in. It is fixed in 5.4.
