In my project I’m using the advanced session plugin and I wanted to create a party. How can I detect all the players that are in the session to appear later in a vertical box.
Someone?
There are a couple of common ways:
- One way is to just use the “Player Array” variable contained in the GameState. This will give you access to the list of all PlayerStates currently in the server.
- Another way is to make a new variable array of PlayerControllers in your GameMode and then you just manually add and remove PlayerControllers whenever there is a PostLogin or a Disconnect.

I am not getting it just to see the name of the player himself, the rest does not appear even if they are already in session or if they re-enter basically what seems to me is that the players of matrices in the game are just Have the player himself , do not know.
Prints:
Yeah for my problem I would do a server travel then on begin play I would grab the player array and it seemed on the client I would never get the host. However, for testing purposes I put it on tick and then I would get the host soon after.
I ended up going with option 2. What I did was added the PlayerController to a TArray on the GameMode then I would go into the PlayerController and update a TArray that contained all the players that have logged on. The PlayerController also had a repnotify which would then update my widgets on the client. Works for what I need it to do.
