For our mobile game we are working on storing content title data locally so we don't have to download it every time the player opens the app. We are making sure to handle sensitive data through CloudScript to minimize the chances of cheating. Caching our content title data poses the following question: is there a way for the client to check if the title data has been updated on the server?
You can create an additional pair of key-value pairs to store version information, then players can use API GetTitleData to get this specific KVPs and check if the Title Data has been updated. Since Title Data is sharded and cached, it can take a significant amount of time before all servers are returning the new value. And during that time, depending on which cache services the request, the client could get the old value or the new value.
Thank you, regarding the use of GetTitleData i assume it is faster to request only 1 key versus requesting all of them right?
