For quick turnarounds please include:

  • a short description of the issue in English: "expected behaviour" vs. "actual behaviour". How frequent is the issue? Does it happen for everyone and all platforms? In specific situations? What happens?

  • can you reproduce this with one of our demos (modified or not)? Include repro steps or minimal repro project. For Unity, make use of the export package feature.

  • details about the client environment used:

    • Send us the Client SDK version. This is part of the SDK zip file name.

    • If you use a framework or an engine, send us its version. e.g. Unity 2017.3, Unreal Engine 4.18.

    • The platform details could be useful (device model and OS). e.g. iPhone X/iOS 10, Pixel 2/Android 8.0.

    • For Unity builds, let us know which Editor you use (including the third digit) and if you compile via IL2CPP or Mono.

  • details about the server environment used:

    • Via email only: Drop us the AppId and the AppVersion used.
    • Let us know the Region and the Server Address.
    • If you have trouble with a specific channel, send us the ChannelName.
  • details about the network environment when needed:

    • Send us the protocol used:
      • IPv4 or IPv6 (or DNS64/NAT64).
      • UDP or TCP or WSS, etc.
    • Modem, router or other network equipments used in the affected network (gateway or between client and server).
    • Via email only: We may request that you provide:
      • Public IP address of affected client(s) / server(s).
      • Results of ping or tracert/traceroute.
  • add screenshots or a short video if the problem is something visual.
