Hello, I've been debating over putting this question on the forum for a while now because it feels like I'm missing something simple to fix, but no matter how long I look, I can't find anything.

In my code it says:

On start of layout:

(Setting variables and positions of objects)

Connect to signalling server "wss://multiplayer.scirra.com"

Set Text to "Connecting, please wait..."

Wait 10 seconds

If not connected:

"Not connected. Trying again, please wait..."

Wait 10 seconds

and that cycle continues, but every time I run the program it will never connect, and I have no clue why not. Does anyone know why that might be? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You're probably using the wait action wrong.

Do you have an "On signalling connected" trigger event to catch the successful connection?

It would be useful if you showed your actual events.

I found the issue. It was because I was using a school computer to try to connect to the signalling server. I didn't realize this was something schools could block, but now that I do know, everything makes more sense. Thank you for trying to help me out though! I do appreciate it.
