The peerID assigned to your device in a GKSession, is it always the same

  • 0

The peerID assigned to your device in a GKSession, is it always the same for the same device?
I mean, every time you create a GKSession, your peerID will be the same one? or a random one is assigned everytime you create a GKSession?
How is this peerID generated?

thanks!

    Just ran the GameKit sample code a couple times and it looks like peerIDs are created randomly each time you create a new GKSession.

    For instance:

    1st Run:

    remote peerID = 599103133

    session.peerID = 1227554288

    2nd Run:

    remote peerID = 990301845

    session.peerID = 1731464655

    No idea how these are being generated but they’re stored as NSStrings which is kind of odd to me.
