Okay how do I access a custom currency from GameSparks.Api.Responses.ListVirtualGoodsResponse._VirtualGood?

I can see there is a currencyCosts in the returned response but how do I access it with the Unity SDK?

Thanks

Quentin

Hi Quentin,

Sorry for the late reply. Our SDK will update shortly to allow you to interact with the new currency system. I apologise for the delay.

It will be:

int currencyCosts =(int) virtualGood.CurrencyCosts.getNumber("currencyName");

Cheers,

Omar

Thanks for your reply. Is there a way I can pull this information with a logevent and cloud code? I'm thinking it might be better that way.

Have this in your event's cloud code:

Spark.setScriptData("balance",Spark.getPlayer().getBalance("currencyName"));

Thanks, I haven't tried that but won't that just get me the balance of the virtual currency? I was looking for the currency cost of a virtual good. I did some digging around and found I can get the value using the rest api for Virtual goods. it's mapped under currencyCostMap ? but it's not available in the JSON returned from ListVirtualGoods when using cloud code.

I tried SparkConfig.getVirtualGoods() but I'm getting a "ReferenceError: "SparkConfig" is not defined "when I run it in the test harness.

Thanks for your help

Hi Quentin,

To get an instance of a SparkConfig object, you need to use Spark.getConfig(), e.g.

var virtualGoods = Spark.getConfig().getVirtualGoods();

Hope this helps,

Jon.
