how do 2 devs play a game on the studio ?

Post by fafa-fr »

Hi !
I tried to play a game on the studio with another dev, but we couldn't. The one who opened the table could go to the game table without problem, but the other one, after having accepted the invitation without problem, couldn't go to the game table and always got the following error :
Unable to find table database (1): ebd_jumpgate_30829 (this happened multiple times with different game tables, and with me or him having the error)
I wonder if this is connected with the fact that it's not a 2 players game, so one of us had to use 2 dev usernames to play.

Have you ever played with another dev on the studio ? Is there a correct way to do this ?

Thanks a lot

Databases in the studio seem indeed to be assigned to only one account :(
Which means adding the other dev as a project member probably won't solve the issue.

You could change the password of one of your Studio accounts and share it with the other dev. Not sure if changing the password is possible though.
You dev friend must have agreed to the BGA terms & conditions for developers so legally there should be no issue in giving her/him access to the Studio through your account.
I did it many times without changing any password and when asking admins about it they said it was fine. It's not national security, really...

Thanks Pikiou for these informations, we'll try with several of my accounts.

It doesn't, indeed, we're already both of us members of the project.

At least you can change the password for your "0" account, so you're not opening this one to the people you invite for testing.
