Don't know if I should make a new post about this but after reworking the network events, things start to work kinda properly, player can connect to each other after transition BUT this time it's the peer side that fail to send the infomation. Everything work just fine when you tried on the local network, but after several tests with others through different machines, none of them work. Feel like same bug for me

File for anyone interested: goo.gl/EPEoo5

In all honesty, your event sheets are a bit messy this way.

Have you used the multiplayer example games as reference ?

If not, it might definitely be worth checking them out and see how they are build up.

I know that mine is messy, I did spend ( a lot of ) time reading the multiplayer example and online tutorial.

I don't mind reworking all the events, but seeing it worked, in a weird way, especially the host tends to keep the old room name.

In my opinion the host somehow manages to keep the old multiplayer's room name and join it, even it's in another "game" section.

Thanks for spending time at this post though, I might have to do something with it

When you go to layout 1 ... the first thing you do there is leave room and disconnect (network event sheet) and reconnect to the signalling server.

Is it what I should do or I have been doing it wrong? In case I've done it wrong, why the Peer can properly join the correct room (which is the combination of names) and not the Host ( The lobby and the game are in the different game "name" in the join room setting, and I even double the Leave and Disconnect event [ Sheet 2 and Network ] to make sure that everything is gone before attempting to reconnect again, I could be wrong though.) The big mystery to me is how the Peer can do that ( works everytime ) but not the Host?

You were trying to login in a with a blank name (Username="") if you change it to anything, (like: meh) it will log you in.

You were getting an error "Invalid alias"

Then, the room you try to join was also blank, change it to anything, and it works.

Invalid alias happened to me before since I tried to login using the text inside the "loginName" textbox, which is destroyed upon transition, the username work just fine for me

The red circle I made ( which you can test it out too by connect 2 player then after the transition, waiting like 8 secs then press "L", you'll see the messenge "Not in a room". Also the room is not correct, and the username has no problem

Unable to download your capx

As a test, in the menu, before transitioning to the new layout, add a text field for feedback and add to the event sheet:

event:

on joined room

action:

textfield set text "joined room"

And check if you actually joined the room.

I did add a text field as a debug thing to see that if i'm in the room but no luck.

P/S: updated the capx link
