Hi,

I am trying to get a very simple example working. I want every minute to send a message to all the players.

So I modified the cloude code of the system event GS_MINUTE with this:

var players = Spark.getPlayerIds();
Spark.sendMessageById({"TEST" : "DTC"}, players);

 Then in unity I have an object with the following script attached:

public class TEST : MonoBehaviour 
{
    void Awake() 
    {
        ScriptMessage.Listener = (ScriptMessage message) =>
        {
            Debug.Log("We just got a ScriptMessage");
        };
 
        GSMessageHandler._AllMessages = (GSMessage e) =>
        {
            Debug.Log("ALL HANDLER " + e.MessageId);
        };
    }
}

But I do not get any printout in the console. I also tried to put the cloud code in an event and to trigger it from the testharness, but without more success.

I don't think that it will be very informative:

{
 "@class": ".LogEventResponse",
 "scriptData": null
}

{
 "@class": ".LogEventRequest",
 "eventKey": "TEST_EVENT"
}

{
 "@class": ".AuthenticationResponse",
 "authToken": "87aa662f-ba31-4c1f-9ad1-fed15c612397",
 "newPlayer": true,
 "scriptData": null,
 "userId": "56c1e3a8f528a1ccf49b385a"
}

Up.

I still have this issue. I managed to send messages to the users in other pieces of cloud code, but I do not seem to be able to do so in the EVERY_MINUTE and EVERY_DAY codes. Well, at least nothing is received in Unity. I'm not sure if there is a way to check if something was fired from GS server.

That is probably not an error in the script, as I was mentioning the test harness do not cry and the code is trivial:

var players = Spark.getPlayerIds();
Spark.sendMessageById({"TEST" : "DTC"}, players);

Does not seem to change anything.

I noticed the cloud code I used is now marked as deprecated. I changed it to this, 

var players = Spark.getPlayerIds();
var msg = Spark.message(null);
msg.setPlayerIds(players);
msg.setMessageData({"type" : "MinuteUpdate", "Message":"This is a minute update."});
msg.send();

but it is still the same: I do not get anything on Unity's side, neither in the editor nor deployed on a device.

Actually I think I found what is the issue here, I added this line to my cloud code to be able to inspect the content of the variables:

var players = Spark.getPlayerIds();
var msg = Spark.message(null);
msg.setPlayerIds(players);
msg.setMessageData({"type" : "MinuteUpdate", "Message":"This is a minute update."});
msg.send();

Spark.setScriptData("Debug.PlayersIDs", players)

 It turns ou in the inspector that the response is the following (the player list is empty.):

{
 "@class": ".LogEventResponse",
 "scriptData": {
  "Debug.PlayersIDs": []
 }
}

Hi Vinnie,

Thanks for the pointer. Indeed I managed to have it working with maintaining my own collection.

Actually I'm going to have this script executed every hour. 

I am just putting it in every minute to make it easier to debug. The idea is to update some decaying values that are stored against each player, and warn them when they are too low.

Thank you again,

Stephane
