## Lobby & Relay

We use the lobby service to create a space that our users can join and share data through.

We use the Relay service to obfuscate the Hosts' IP, while still allowing them to locally host strangers.

## Solo Testing

Create a new Unity Build of the project in the OS of your choice.
Because the Authentication service creates a unique ID for builds, you will need to host a lobby in Build and join in Editor or vice versa.

1. Start the game, and hit start to enter the Room List. This Queries the rooms service for available Lobbies, there wont be any right now.

2. The Create Menu Lets you make a new Lobby.

3. This is the Lobby, It has a Room code for you to share with your friends to allow them to join.
For demonstration purposes we also show the Relay Code, which will be passed to all users in the Lobby.

4. Open the second game instance in Editor or in Build, you should now see your Lobby in the list.

5. The Lobby holds up to 4 players and will pass the Relay code once all the players are ready.

6. The countdown will start after the rooms data synch has completed. (It is a little slow due to our refresh rate being low at the moment)

7. The relay service IP gets passed to all users in the lobby, and this is where you would connect to a server, if you had one.
