Hey Dev Team.

I built an online multiplayer game using AppGameKit Tier 1, already released on Android Devices, however the build is rejected by Apple because it does not work on IPv6 networks. Tested and confirmed that when using IPv6, the socket does indeed not function. Are possible work around or just bite the bullet and not release on iOS?

Thanks for any advice,

Cheers

Rob

If this is true then I'm sure Paul can add it to his list of things to fix. I know Apple insist on IPv6 compatibility for networking and as it's a deal breaker then no doubt it'll be sorted in AGK.

Fingers crossed! It has stifled the released of my current game on iOS devices until then.

Any thoughts Paul?

Well I was going to have to move to IPv6 sooner or later. I'll see what I can do
