Peer id issue ?

[Mxthe]

Hey, sorry I post another thread...But I kinda have a weird issue !

I am trying to set every peer to a specific Id, until I found out about the Peer Id expression...

So I made a condition :

Always : Count 1 : Set to Peer Id


So I was like happy, I ran the game on 4 different computers, and when I look at the counter with the Peer Id, the number are...Jumping around, like they are looping between the number of IDs...

The number were jumping between 1, 2, 3 and 4 randomly...Why is that happening ? Anyone, Any idea? I did something wrong or is this a bug ?

Thanks, and sorry for posting again !

If there are more than two people in a room, of course that would jump around, as you are not selecting a peer to set the counter to! Each peer has thier own ID, starting at 0.

The expression returns the ID of the selected peer.
You can select peers manually, by looping, name, or ID.
Plus, peers are selected when a message is received (in this case, the sender of the message is selected), and when they leave/join a channel.

Ohhhhh I see, thanks for the explanations !

So, there is no way of knowing the Id of the current peer ?

Example :

I join the channel, and a counter shows me my own id...

Any automatic way to do that, or I keep coding this myself?

Oh. Use Self -> ID

"Peer" means someone else on the server. "Self" means yourself. You can't select yourself as a peer, although other people on the channel see you as a peer to themselves.
