MatchmakingRequest filter based on client version

Vincent Paquette

started a topic over 5 years ago

Hi, I'd like to know what would be the best way to avoid matching players that don't use the same client version. We currently set the skill and the matchshortcode when creating a new matchmaking request. There are other parameters available but it's not clear what they do.

Thanks!

Thanks :) I ended up using the customQuery field this way:

...

.SetParticipantData(new GSRequestData(new Dictionary<string, object>(){{ "version", Application.version }}))

.SetCustomQuery(new GSRequestData(new Dictionary<string, object>(){{ "players.participantData.version", Application.version }}))

...

And it works fine.

Hi Vincent,

MatchGroup parameter will allow you to match players that use the same client version. Only players with the same MatchGroup value are matched together. So if you pass in the client version as the MatchGroup string, only players within that client version will be matched.

Cheers,
