get_transform can only be called from the main thread.

what's the best practice to set something like transform inside On event

i'm not really experienced with multithreading, from the example all i can found is "lock" which i'm not sure what to put inside

        socket.On("pos", (data) =>
        {
            string str = data.ToString();
            Vector3 pos = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Vector3>(str);
            remotePlayer.transform.position = pos;
        });

i'm using fpanettieri's before using this, and i can do above script

Yes, the callback is running in a background thread, so not operate the UI in that.

Instead, put the data in a variable, the use the main thread to read the variable then operate the UI.

See the example: https://github.com/floatinghotpot/socket.io-unity/blob/master/Demo/SocketIOScript.cs#L68

@floatinghotpot can you please update the lib to support the script that i'm doing? just like how this lib work https://github.com/fpanettieri/unity-socket.io-DEPRECATED crating a variable for every event seems unnecessary if i have lots of events it's going to be messy

[floatinghotpot]

I think that is same, the callback is a background thread, you can write log, but you cannot access UI.

@floatinghotpot i'm not accessing UI, i'm accessing player gameobject transform and i can do that in this lib https://github.com/fpanettieri/unity-socket.io-DEPRECATED i can even access UI when using that lib

[floatinghotpot]

But your suggestion is good. If initialize a function in main thread to regularly check the queue then call your callback, it should be okay.

[enviel]

yeah and that should be a core element on the lib can you add that to the lib?

[floatinghotpot]

I think that is not difficult, just add a wrapper. I will try.

@floatinghotpot thankyou so much sir :)
