(Available with SDK v2.0.7)

The User Presence Event Simulator is a prefab that can be added to a Canvas in your project and used to simulate User Presence events while running your project in the editor.

The User Presence Event Simulator prefab requires the Gameboard GameObject to be present. Find the Gameboard menu at the top of the unity header and click "Add SDK" to add the Gameboard GameObject to your project. If you do not have the Gameboard menu options, see Gameboard SDK Access

Navigate in the Project explorer to Packages > Gameboard Unity > Runtime > Tools > Prefabs and look for the one named UserPresenceSimulator.prefab

And drag the prefab into your scene. You should see a panel with some dropdowns and input fields.

You can also add the prefab through the Gameboard menu by navigating to Gameboard > Tools > Add User Presence Simulator (debug)

Once running the game, the widget will be able to be used to simulate various User Presence events.

• Event Type
  • ADD - A user is joining the board for the first time. The User ID needs to be unique, you will get an error if a user with the same ID is already present. (NOTE: The Gameboard does not send a position with ADD events, the position is sent with a subsequent CHANGE_POSITION event)
  • REMOVE - A user leaves the board
  • CHANGE - A user updates something, such as changing the display name or token color.
  • CHANGE_POSITION - A user moves their drawers on the board.
• User ID - Unique identifier for user
• Display Name - The username or name the user set to be displayed
• Position - Location on the board. See image below to see where each position lies on the board.
• Token Color - Color the user selected to represent themselves. This will be parsed by ColorUtility.TryParseHtmlString, so you can pass the hex value or color name.
