Hello. I am working on reducing traffic during the load of our game.
I notice the following code when a player disconnects: (only the master client executes this)
bool isPlayer = (string)otherPlayer.CustomProperties[Strings.PLAYER_TYPE] == "Player" ? true : false;
int playerCount = (int)PhotonNetwork.room.CustomProperties[Strings.PLAYER_COUNT];
int newPlayerCount = isPlayer ? playerCount - 1 : playerCount;
int newSpecCount = !isPlayer ? spectatorCount - 1 : spectatorCount;
ExitGames.Client.Photon.Hashtable roomProperties = new ExitGames.Client.Photon.Hashtable();
roomProperties.Add(Strings.PLAYER_COUNT, newPlayerCount);
roomProperties.Add(Strings.SPECTATOR_COUNT, newSpecCount);
PhotonNetwork.room.SetCustomProperties(roomProperties);
These room properties are set in the game room before we load into our game scene. I don't see these properties used anywhere after we start our game. I just want to double check that it is ok to remove this code.

Display every player's name?
First, the player inputs his name into an input field. Then, the user presses a button and it loads the level. The player's movements are perfectly synchronized and everything, but their names don't show up properly. I've got a canvas attached to both players. It will show your name, but it won't show all the other user's names. How can I make it so that when a user joins the game, it will display everybody else's name? I'm a total noob :(

Photon SetCustomProperties not working for previously connected players
Hi
I have some problem while using SetCustomProperties
The code is like below:
Hashtable playerCountryCode = new Hashtable() { { "CountryCode", "HK" } };
PhotonNetwork.player.SetCustomProperties(playerCountryCode);
PhotonNetwork.JoinRoom(roomName);
3 players connected.
Player1 (First Joined): shows all player's country code properly.
Player2 (Joined secondly): shows Player2 and Player3's country code.
Player3 (Last joined): shows only Player3's country code.
I would like to solve this problem. Please help me to get all player's name correctly for all players. Look forward to hearing from you

Scene objects not deleted on other clients devices
When I try to delete scene objects created by master client , they are deleted on master client's device, however, some of them are still seen on other clients devices. This is my codes.
if (PhotonNetwork.isMasterClient) {
PhotonNetwork.Destroy(go66); <= this is deleted on master, not deleted on other clients.
PhotonNetwork.Destroy(go6); <= this is deleted on master and other clients.
}
One thing,,, go66 used to be a child of go6 when it is created. Later go66 is released before getting destroyed.
Can anyone help me on this? Thanks for any advice.

photonView.RequestOwnership(); it does not work
I'm creating a multiplayer game and I would like to insert the grab system, I know I have to put photonView.RequestOwnership ();
but I do it, it does not give me error, only when I take the object does not make me take, instead if I do not put photonView.RequestOwnership(); it works great, how do I solve it?
on photonview I already put on "TakeOver"
here are the codes of the files

photonView.RequestOwnership(); I put it inside the function, so it's okay? do you do it well?

Weird error when attempting to Add component "An item with the same key ... Photon View"
So as the title says, since updating to V2, I've been getting this error
"ArgumentException: An item with the same key has already been added. Key: Component/Photon Networking/Photon View" whenever I press the "Add Component" button. I realized that for some reason, my editor has multiple copies of "Photon view" and I don't know why. See image https://imgur.com/a/l44Xozx . I've been scouring my folders to see if there were duplicates somewhere, but I found nothing. Any advice?

PUN doesn't find in-scene prefabs when loading the scene second time around
Sorry, the title is probably a bit confusing. I'm trying to do the following: I have a "Start Scene" in Unity, which is where the player starts and is off-line. when ready, they click a button to connect to photon and have it load the "Main Scene". Once the main scene is loaded, the player is instantiated by photon at the position and rotation of a prefab (ie, a spawn point). Once in the Main Scene, the player can click a button to disconnect from photon and return to the Start Scene.
The problem is, this works perfectly the first time around, but once the player goes back to the Start Scene and then tries to repeat, once the Main Scene is loaded for the second time, I get this error message:
MissingReferenceException: The object of type 'GameObject' has been destroyed but you are still trying to access it.
The spawnpoint is just a prefab that I've placed into the scene. There is no photon view or anything on it. I'm only using it to read it's position, and I know it's there the second time because I can see it in the editor scene view, but photon thinks it isn't. I know I'm probably just using a wrong command or something, but I can't figure out what it is, and I have no idea why photon thinks it's been destroyed because it didn't instantiate it in the first place. Here is the only script in the Start Scene(heavily condensed for brevity):
public class StartSceneScript : Photon.PunBehaviour
{
public bool offlineMode = false;
public byte MaxPlayersPerRoom = 6;
void Awake()
{
PhotonNetwork.logLevel = Loglevel;

Oculus Avatars setup
Hey, I followed this tutorial to get Oculus Avatars to worK: https://doc.photonengine.com/en-us/pun/v2/demos-and-tutorials/oculusavatarsdk
I don't see my local avatar in game i.e. no hands or any indication it's loaded, on the other end on a remote client I can see my avatar but it doesn't show my personalised avatar and it doesn't follow my position if I move around locally (I use VRTK).
Do I have to sync the positions separately and does the localavatar automatically attach to my scene OVRCameraRig even if I'm using VRTK which handles multiple setups?
Thanks

Issues When Adding PhotonViews to GameObjects at Runtime
Hello!
I am working on a game where I need to be able to add and remove PhotonViews to objects at runtime relatively frequently. I have a system where I add a PhotonView on the client side, then send the name of the GameObject, and the ViewID that I allocated to the PhotonView through a custom PhotonView (lets just call it SharedInfo) script that I have created. SharedInfo then sends the data over the network to itself (serializes it? I'm not sure what the technical term is for this). It uses the name that is sent over the network to find the corrosponding GameObject and creates a PhotonView on that object, with a ViewID that is the same as the one sent over the network. Sorry if I explained this poorly.
Anyways, when the master client runs this, everything works fine. But the weird thing is that when a non-master client runs this, I get the following warning.
Received OnSerialization for view ID XXXX. We have no such PhotonView! Ignored this if you're leaving a room. State: Joined
What is weird is that the warning doesn't appear at all on the non-master clients. It only appears on the master client when a non-master client tries to run through this "process". What I also find strange is that it seems to be stopping SharedInfo from reading anything from the stream on the master client (as I found out by putting a debug.log in the start of if (stream.isreading), and seeing that the debug.log never showed up in the console).
Again, I'm sorry if this is explained poorly. But does anybody have any ideas as to why this might be happening?

Grab information about players BEFORE entering a room PUN 2
Hey all,
So I am trying to implement this dynamic matchmaking system where the player doesn't interact with it at all. Basically I want implement a system when the player connects to the master server they are given a choice to host or join a game. If the player clicks on join, in stead of prompted to a list of rooms currently active, the game checks the player's save game, sees where the position they were last at and then picks a room where the host has a current position nearby the player's saved position.
Is this possible? Can I get information of players in a game without connecting to the room? How can I do that?
Thanks.

Cannot connect to MasterServer on wifi network
Up until this morning I have been able to connect to master server and test my game just fine on both my computer and test device. Now when I try to connect using my home wifi network it just hangs on ConnectingToMasterServer and ultimately times out. When I turn off wifi and use my cellular data everything works. Any idea what might be happening? I have not made any changes to my game since this started happening and my wifi seems to be working fine otherwise.
Appreciate any insight.

Sequence for joining lobby/room
Could someone please advise or point me to an article (looked at Sky Arena, etc) on the basic workflow when using lobbies/rooms? The info is fragmented and a bit confusing :-(. Lot of stuff about joining rooms, listing players and all the callbacks - but HOW do they fit together?
For the simplest case: I have two maps, the players pick one and hit "play", wait until 5 players (including themselves) get matched and are ready to go, the level loads (on ALL clients - i.e. wait until the slowest machine has finished loading), 10 second countdown, game begins for everyone.
Question is: Where do they "wait" (is that in the lobby or in the room)? When do I JoinOrCreate the room? When do I load the level? Does the room have to be "JoinOrCreated" by at least one player before others see there's a room to join (with the room property "mapname" (or "mn" as recommended) exposed to the lobby for matchmaking)?
Thanks for any help!

What exactly happens when reached CCU limit?
Hi,
Sorry if this is duplicate (pretty sure) but I counldn't find my answer.
So I'm using 100 CCU currently,
What I'm curious about is what happens to 101 CCU?
Can 101 CCU connect to lobby?
or can 101 CCU "only" connect to lobby and not the room and if attempts to join the room OnPhotonMaxCccuReached() is called?
I'm trying to figure out a way to handle the situation gracefully.

2 Person multiplayer (Help: Camera issue)
Hey
I've been struggling to create a simple 1 vs 1 game. I've managed to do get both player join the same room and launch the scene. After that I've also managed to spawn 2 players each on their side. The part that bugs me is setting up the camera for each player so they can see from their own camera.
The player prefab has a camera included
So far in the code part i used the PhotonView.isMine to check which one i own and then i checked if PhotonView.isMine isn't mine then disable the camera. But that didn't seem to do what i want it to do.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Any help is really appreciated! :)
