Game Center authentication question

[mobichan]

When running on the PC debugger, I have noticed that when you change frames, the authentication seems to get lost.

I have the following events in my frame, but they always run, even if I ran authentication successfully in another frame:

+(NEGATE) Local Player is authenticated
+Only run this action once
- Authenticate local player

I assume if you authenticate in a previous frame, then you are authenticated across all frames. Is this true? Or is this a limitation of running it on the debugger? I haven't tried exporting yet to the Mac, but I am still trying to get my head around how to use Game Center.

Any help is appreciated,

EDIT: I have unchecked "authenticate at start of frame." This is because I don't want to see a GC login message every frame. Or is that only a limitation of the debugger as well?

Yes, the PC emulation looses the (fake) authentification for every frame. I have to correct that.
This does not affect the iOS version.

Thanks Francois. Another "bug" is that if the authentication message is onscreen when a frame changes, then the message never disappears.

If already authenticated, it won't re-authenticate. Should be fine to keep it checked in other frames if I remember correctly.
