Integrating game server build with Playfab GSDK

Hey! Hopefully someone can help. I'm not a developer and helping the team out so be patient with me lol


I don't know how to integrate game server build with GSDK as per Microsoft documentation into my code.

The document says to implement Start and Ready for Players methods into game server but how do I do that? I'm guessing adding a C# script but I'm not sure on the actual code... The doc says GameServerSDK.Start(); but that returns an error in the console...

This is the doc I am referring to:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/gaming/playfab/features/multiplayer/servers/integrating-game-servers-with-gsdk


Thank you :-)

Hi @inacomic, typically you would add Start and ReadyForPlayers in the entrypoint, or code that's called when your game server is started. Can you share the high level details about your team's project? Are you using an engine like Unity or Unreal?

Hi Austin,

Thanks for replying. Sure it's Unity and we would initially like to use PlayFab for internal testing before setting it up properly as using all the funtionality.

We're using DarkRift for networking.

It's the actual code I'd need to add into the project to get it setup...

Thanks

Have you come across this Unity + Mirror sample project? It should outline the steps to get up and running with Unity + PlayFab. All of the necessary code is included in the repository.

To adapt this sample to DarkRift, I would take a look at this MonoBehavior.
