Hi,
Just curious if anyone can shed some light on successfully testing IAPs. Some people say you need to upload a new binary to test an IAP, so say you dont and I can't seem to figure out how to get it to work. I created the IAP yesterday evening, Created a test account for IAPs in itunes connect, and just can't seem to get anything to show up in my game. Any direction would be awesome!
Thanks,
Tony
i can at least help you with the info that you do *not* need to upload a binary to apple to test IAP
Am about to implement this IAP but a super cool click team manual for nabs would be cool!
So this is what I have going on so far so if anybody sees what i'm doing wrong please let me know
Itunes Connect side-
Created a "New Version" (no new binary uploaded)
Created an IAP with the Product ID - com.mycompany.mygame.2000coins
Details for the IAP
Added Test User for IAPs
Added/Approved the IAP in the new version of the game.
MMF side (once the IAP is purchased I want to add 2000 coins to a counter called "Coins Counter"
Main Menu
+ Can Payments be made?
- Make IAP Store Button reappear
User selects the store button and it takes you to the IAP menu
Once in the IAP store I have a menu on the right with buttons for each of the IAPs and a box on the left that shows the details and price (I have a counter named "Cost" to display this) of the selected IAP. I use a variable called "Choice" to keep track of which button is selected.
+ Choice = 1
[iOS Store]
- Request information for "com.mycompany.mygame.2000coins"
[iOS Store]
+ On request response for "com.mycompany.mygame.2000coins"
[Cost Counter]
- Set Counter to Product Price
If the person wants to purchase the item I have a button called "BUY" they can press.
+ User Clicks on "BUY"
[iOS Store]
- Request payment for "com.mycompany.mygame.2000coins" quantity=1
[iOS Store]
+ On payment processed for "com.mycompany.mygame.2000coins"
[Coins Counter]
- Add 2000 to counter
So far nothing happens. The IAP store appears but I can't seem to do anything else in regards to Purchasing or getting info for the IAP
Well, as is usually the case....I am an idiot lol I didn't realize that I had the purchase process inside of a Group that I had turned off. I feel dumb but am happy it seems to work now
I do this all the time. It's amazing how playing around with stuff can produce a solution.Originally Posted by DTownTony

I have a working in-app purchase in a game that's been released, so it definitely works. Post again if you continue to run into issues!
Hey DTownTony. Are there more steps to the Iap purchase to work ? It works when i test it quickly on pc but on the iphone nothing happens. Is this supposed to be fully working like game center sandbox ?
right now to test the functionality all i did was add the following events :
event 1______________________________________
conditions:
Can payments be made ?
user clicks on image
only one action when event loops
action :
request payment for xxx.com.company.item1
event 2____________________________________________
On payment processed for xxx.com.company.item1
only one action when event loops
event :
set global value item1 to 1
destroy buy button
Make sure to have a new version of your app, or a new app, added in itunes connect(you don't need to upload a binary). Also, you have to add the IAPs to the app in itunes connect and create a test account under the account manager..
I added the app to my first version which hasn't been submitted yet. I didn't think I would need to add a new version even if my app hasn't been submitted. I saw yours showing as ready for sale while mine is prepare for sale. I will try adding a new version...
Also should I use the request product information ?
Also what is 'Can payments be made ?' what doe sit look for ? Internet connection only ?
Thanks for your help btw.
