I want to build a poker-like game via turn-based challenge.

And the next player depends on various factor, folded? all-in? ....etc

1.

Can I use cloud code to simply "set" the next player?

Or can I use turn consume function multiple times?

2.

How can I do time-out maybe after 30 secs each turn?

After time-out, do the default move for the player to make game smoothly.

3.

Or should I not use turn-based?

Thanks a lot!

Hi Jo

1 - You can use consumeTurn until Spark.getData().nextPlayer is the player you want.

2- You can set up an event that set's a timer in cloud code to call the default move after 30 seconds.

3- you can use turn based

Thanks

Any answers to the question above?

hi Katie

how can we do that you mentioned? 2- You can set up an event that set's a timer in cloud code to call the default move after 30 seconds.

The event/countdown will have to be started after the ChallengeEvent: challenge.takeTurn(playerID)

And on complete of the timeout of the event the:

challenge.consumeTurn(skipPlayer);

But how should the event be configured in the gmaesparks panel? And prob give an example for the cloud code on the event timeout.

How can we help you today?
