"already a room with the specified id"

Postby Breaker » January 28th, 2012, 7:56 am

Hello, just a quick question. Is the room name "Lobby" a reserved name? When testing on the development server I keep getting the "Error: You are unable to create room because there is already a room with the specified id" when trying to call client.multiplayer.createJoinRoom("Lobby", "MyCode", true, {}, {}, handleJoin, JoinError); listRooms shows 0 rooms. Lobby2 room ID seems to work fine when joining, leaving, and rejoining. It worked just fine yesterday, am I doing something wrong?

Can you post the game ID of the game where this happens so I can have a few people looking into what might go wrong?

Game ID: break-yqops1nte2atwrinwqaa
I have not uploaded anything to the game server yet. I have not received the error today when running it although I have changed nothing since then so I feel this might come up again. I'll notify you when and if this problems comes up again. Thanks.
