AccelByte Cloud 3.11.0
Release Date: December 6th, 2021
Here's a look at what's new in AccelByte Cloud 3.11.0:
Highlights
New Delay for Kicking Disconnected Players out of Parties
The latest version of AccelByte Cloud gives you the ability to add a delay to the Auto Kick on Disconnect option for parties. The delay ensures that players aren't removed from their party if they can get back in the game in time after being disconnected, so that if the delay is set to 10 seconds, the player will stay in their party for 10 seconds after being disconnected.
Improved Matchmaking Ticket Handling
AccelByte Cloud 3.11.0 includes improved matchmaking behavior to enhance player experience. Now the Matchmaking service will preserve the age of matchmaking tickets belonging to players who are matched with a player who leaves before the match begins. This way, these players will be prioritized next time they try to find a match.
