Third Party Photon Network would delete all objects with PhotonView on them.

Hello guys!

Please help!

I have a fairly simple project that I'm working on:

FPS-Two player game.
Players spawn at different end of the map, not problem.
I can even run with them for 5~10 seconds. Everything is smooth.

But for some reason Objects(Players, and other few objects with PhotonView) would disappear from the scene, about 10 seconds in to the game....

I have absolutely no idea what is the reason for that.

Please help.
Thanks

 

Found out that function OnDisconnectedFromPhoton is called....
Still have no idea why.

 

Yeah, it's a default feature of Photon to clean up objects on the network or something. Often clients are automatically disconnected if X amount of packets are dropped. You can mitigate this issue with something like PhotonNetwork.MaxSendsBeforeTimeout or something (I forgot the exact name) and setting it higher to be more tolerant.

Another possible solution is finding the event that's called when a client disconnects and removing all photonviews from their units. Then you can keep your objects existing but upon reconnection, they will need to be reregistered to the server.

 

That sounds like a timeout. It might be due to what you send or due to your network connection.
Do the Tutorial in the PUN package and check this page, too:

Maybe you can use
void OnDestroy() {
print("Script was destroyed");
}

to reinstantiate a similar objects
