CreateSFSGameRequest

new CreateSFSGameRequest(settings)

Creates a new CreateSFSGameRequest instance. The instance must be passed to the SmartFox.send() method for the request to be executed.

This request creates a new Game Room in the current Zone through the istantiation of a SFSGame object on the server-side, a specialized Room type that provides advanced features during the creation phase of a game. Specific game-configuration settings are passed by means of the SFSGameSettings class.

If the creation is successful, a roomAdd event is dispatched to all the users who subscribed the Group to which the Room is associated, including the game creator. Otherwise, a roomCreationError event is returned to the creator's client.
Also, if the settings passed in the SFSGameSettings object cause invitations to join the game to be sent, an invitation event is dispatched to all the recipient clients.

Check the SmartFoxServer 2X documentation for a more in-depth overview of the GAME API.
