Photon players' usernames not syncing properly
So far in my game, I have a login system and a database where I am storing user accounts (I am using Playfab in this case to store player info), and I am using Photon PUN2 in order to create my scene. I have been testing two different players spawning into the room, and I am trying to get their usernames to sync about their heads.
On each player's individual screen, the player's own username shows up perfectly. But, I can not for the life of me understand why the other player's username won't show on others' screens. Here is my basic code setup:
public class PlayerController : MonoBehaviour
{
private PhotonView photonView;
public Text display;
public string username;
private void Start()
{
photonView = GetComponent<PhotonView>();
}
void OnDisplayName(GetAccountInfoResult result)
{
if (photonView.IsMine)
{
username = result.AccountInfo.Username;
}
}
[PunRPC]
public void getDisplayName()
{
GetAccountInfoRequest request = new GetAccountInfoRequest();
PlayFabClientAPI.GetAccountInfo(request, OnDisplayName, OnErrorDisplay);
}
void OnErrorDisplay(PlayFabError error)
{
Debug.Log("Error with display name");
}
private bool playercount = false;
private void FixedUpdate()
{
if (photonView.IsMine)
{
if (PhotonNetwork.CurrentRoom.PlayerCount == 2 && playercount == false)
{
playercount = true;
photonView.RPC("getDisplayName", RpcTarget.AllBuffered);
}
display.text = username;
Debug.Log(username + " is in the game.");
}
public virtual void OnPhotonSerializeView(PhotonStream stream, PhotonMessageInfo info)
{
if (stream.IsWriting)
{
stream.SendNext(username);
}
else if (stream.IsReading)
{
username = (string)stream.ReceiveNext();
}
}
}
Another thing, in the FixedUpdate() function, where I have the debug line...
Debug.Log(username + " is in the game.");
it IS recognizing that there are two players. But, it still isn't printing out the other username. The debug log will show something like this:
"Player1 is in the game."
" is in the game."
And that's it, meaning it recognizing that two players are present, but still fails to grab the other player's username.
Any help with this is much appreciated. I have spent hours switching code around and to no avail. Idk what I'm missing.
