Some Networked Strangnesses

Thanks to you guys I've gotten much farther towards making online games. Now I have some more questions.

Here's the test so far: http://www.wanilla.net/random/mastertest/mastertest.html

The things that are bothering me are:

1. When the second player joins, two blue cubes are instantiated, even though I've checked and double checked that the code only calls for one.

2. When a player leaves, even though I have OnPlayerDisconnected attempting to clean up objects, nothing gets cleaned up.

3. I can't find any way to set the maximum number of players per game to 2 rather than 33.

Thanks for all the help!

 

There is obviously a problem with your code, so we'd need to see it to be of much help.

Again, we'd need to see code. ;-) Perhaps you are doing your Destroy on the wrong client, or you are not using Network.Destroy, or not sending RPC calls correctly to take care of it, etc.

You pass the maximum number when you are calling Network.InitializeServer(allowedConnections, listenPort);

Check the docs:

Thanks for the ideas. I'll take a look at it later (messing around with orbital gravity from the Wiki right now. )

 

I was able to get the player max to two (don't know how I missed that!). Here are the sections of code for the other parts.

Cube Instantiate Code (Creates two cubes at the same place):

Code (csharp):

1. function OnConnectedToServer () {
2.         networkView.RPC ("CreateBlue", RPCMode.All);
3.         gameJoiner = false;
4.         gameInPlay = true;
5. }

Delete Disconnected Player Objects (Doesn't delete anything at all):

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. function OnPlayerDisconnected (player: NetworkPlayer) {
3.     Network.RemoveRPCs (player);
4.     Network.DestroyPlayerObjects (player);
5. }

Thanks for all the help!

 

CreateBlue is an RPC function a little further down the script that just Network.Instantiates a blue cube prefab. I have the exact same thing (called CreateRed) that gets called when the user creates a game, and that works just fine.
