Issues for using Huawei GameTurbo Engine API updateGameAppInfo()

Question

I am trying to use Game Turbo Engine API updateGameAppInfo(), but it does not work consistently, sometimes seems it did not send game info to the device. What could be the reason for this? Also, can I use updateGameAppInfo() to send out messages in a batch?

Answer 1

Please check to see if in your code, you use updateGameAppInfo() to send out game info. to the device too frequently? If yes, try to revise your design to limit the usage of this API to extend the API call intervals or add wait(...) in between calls. The minimum time required in between these API calls is 10ms. If shorter than that, the 2nd call will be ignored. That can cause the intermittent issue for using updateGameAppInfo() similar to yours.

As for sending out message to device using updateGameAppInfo(), you can only send out one message at a time, batch messages are not supported.

Example for Global game message: in the JSON format:

{ "MessageType":0, 
  "PackageName":"xxx.xxx.xxxx.xxx", 
  "AppVersion":"1.0", 
  "ResourceVersion":"1.0",
  "EngineType":2, 
  "EngineVersion":"1.0", 
  "GameType":2, 
  "VulkanSupport":true 
}
