Hello!
Is there a database for matchmaking? if so, how can it be called? or how to properly save the parameters of the player or his attributes and extract them?
For example, there is a player with saved attributes who wants to enter the game and it is necessary that his attributes are automatically loaded. What solution is there for this?
What's the purpose of those parameters? If it is for common use, when creating matchmaking tickets, you can store any attributes in property MatchmakingPlayerAttributes, and these values will be available until the matchmaking ticket/match expires (it will take quite long time after the tickets are matched).
For long-term use, attributes must be stored somewhere. does playfab have such a database in general for Matchmaking or not? or do I need to create my own database? this is necessary in order to remember the attributes with which I play. Tell me how do you imagine a game where you fill yourself with experience, magic, some skills or abilities?
Sorry for the late response. According to your description, you may try Entity Objects. The basic function of Entity Objects is like Player Data (can be stored for long-term use), besides, the Entity Objects can be directly refered by a matchmaking queue. If selecting any rules in the queue configuration page, for example String Equality Rule, you may switch the "Attribute source" to Player Entity, then input the entity name in Attribute path for reference.
If Attributes source is selected as "User", it can be defined anywhere, including the clients. Some rule attributes don't require anti-cheat, such as QoS/latency. If the source is "User", those parameters can be stored anywhere on PlayFab.
