calling save_game() more than once

[a-irsyad]

I have two related questions:

What would happen if I call PlayGamesSnapshotsClient.save_game() more than once with incremental change while...

1....the device is offline. Let's say, first call save_game() with player_score 100, second call with player_score 200 then device goes online. Would only the latest score that get uploaded to Google?

2....the device is online. The same case but while uploading player_score 100 is still in progress, I call save_game() again with player_score 200. Would the first uploading progress get cancelled and resume with the latest one player_score 200?

Hi @a-irsyad how are you?

I'm not sure about what happens if the device is online, to be honest, I haven't tested.

For race conditions (in the same device or in multiple devices, for example a player saving in the phone and in a tablet at the same time), Google's API has a workflow for automatic conflict resolution, but unfortunately, the way it's designed, it can't be implemented in this plugin, so you have to deal with conflicts manually.

Here you have the Google guide on Snapshots, in case it helps you.

Yes, I have read the Google's doc. But I don't know if all the features are implemented in the plugin. I will plan manual test.

Thanks for replying. 🐱👍
