Server type "public" does not exist?

Hello, I'm nopjaz and I'm new to bot-making.
Short story short, I haven't even got the bot connected before running into a brick wall. I'm following a tutorial which instructs me to write the following lines:

▼Hidden text

client = PlayerIO.QuickConnect.SimpleConnect("everybody-edits-su9rn58o40itdbnw69plyw", email.Text, password.Text, null);
con = client.Multiplayer.CreateJoinRoom(worldid.Text, "public", true, new Dictionary<string, string>(), new Dictionary<string, string>());

However, this raises the error: The game Everybody Edits does not have server type with the name "public".
So, can anyone help me with this? Is this my code, something I forgot to import, or is the tutorial outdated?
I'm looking specifically at finding a working room type in place of "public" which does not appear to be working.
Thanks in advance and I'm very sorry for this trivial question.

Not related thing but I am just saying you can put null instead of new Dictionary<string, string>()

Re: Server type "public" does not exist?

I doubt Player.IO has changed their architecture at all, the only reason this worked was for backwards compatibility pre-roomtype. You could actually put in any string there, as long as the room id existed in any given room type.
I'd suggest sticking with $"Everybodyedits{client.BigDB.Load("config", "config")["version"]}" though, not much to add.

Re: Server type "public" does not exist?

I have one more thing to write.
Instead of client = PlayerIO.QuickConnect.SimpleConnect("everybody-edits-su9rn58o40itdbnw69plyw", email.Text, password.Text, null);
You add functions where you get information if the login succeeds or if the login fails. Add them in the end of the code.

Re: Server type "public" does not exist?

It seems that you've made the same mistake I did.

Anyways.

string worldID = "Insert World ID here";
var ver = client.BigDB.Load("config","config")["version"];
con = client.Multiplayer.CreateJoinRoom(worldID, worldID.ToLower().StartsWith("pw") ? "Everybodyedits"+ver : "Beta"+ver, null, null);

Edit: Followed Gosha's new Dictionary<string, string>() to null

Re: Server type "public" does not exist?

btw you could just use .JoinRoom(worldid,null);

Wouldn't that only work on rooms that has atleast one player joined in? (e.g. one player on room)

This is correct. The reason I always use CreateJoinRoom.

Re: Server type "public" does not exist?

Hi just wanted to point out you are doing a mistake.
"public" is a connection type, not a room type.

You should use this:

con = client.Multiplayer.CreateJoinRoom(worldid.Text, "Everybodyedits221", true, new Dictionary<string, string>(), new Dictionary<string, string>());

Re: Server type "public" does not exist?

You should use this:

con = client.Multiplayer.CreateJoinRoom(worldid.Text, "Everybodyedits221", true, new Dictionary<string, string>(), new Dictionary<string, string>());

Change

 "Everybodyedits221"

with

"Everybodyedits" + client.BigDB.Load("config","config")["version"]

and it gets the version for you automatically.

This code is good, unless you're a beta member and you constantly switch between PW and BW lol. Use my code instead.

string worldid = "PWRoomID";
con = client.Multiplayer.CreateJoinRoom(worldid, (worldid.ToLower().StartsWith("bw") ? "Beta" : "Everybodyedits") + client.BigDB.Load("config", "config")["version"], true, new Dictionary<string, string>(), new Dictionary<string, string>());

Re: Server type "public" does not exist?

while we're flinging semantics around, how long have world IDs been case insensitive? Why the ToLower? And as previously pointed out we could apply the null values for brevity

They've always been case-sensitive. There's no reason to do .ToLower() when it will always be either, PW, BW or OW.
