[BUG] Animations don't start after rewarded ad is closed

[SanderVanhove]

Describe the bug

When a rewarded ad is closed, it switches back to the game but it doesn't seem to continuing the game. All the animations stop playing and it won't take input. It is like the game is not getting updated.

After switching apps everything resumes like normal.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Wait for MobileAds to initialize.
2. Load a rewarded ad.
3. Show the rewarded ad.
4. After closing it, nothing gets updated.

Expected behavior After the ad is closed the game should resume.

Screenshots N.a.

Smartphone (please complete the following information):

• Device: iPhone SE 2016
• OS: iOS 14.6
• Version: 3.3.2

After switching apps an going back to my game I see this:

start animation!

I think it has something to do with the

******** stop animation!

and

start animation!

lines.

Hi @SanderVanhove thanks for reporting it, we will check it

@SanderVanhove hi, we tested here and it's working normally, can you send to us more detail about what are you doing?

If possible try to record a video for us.

Also try to download again the updated version of Editor Plugin and iOS Plugin

Hey Gustavo, thanks for getting back to me!

Here is a video of what I mean:

As you can see, after closing the ad, the animations stop. After I switch back to the app they resume.

I also tried the newest build of the plugin without any advance. The admob_api folder is gone from the master branch in this repository by the way.

[SanderVanhove]

Aha I have found the problem!

Everytime I showed an ad I did this:

MobileAds.show_rewarded()
MobileAds.load_rewarded()

As soon as I showed an ad I started loading a new one, in another library this was possible. But with this library it gives the behaviour I showed you. Now I only start loading the new ad when the old one is closed and that does the trick! 😁

I don't know if this should be considered a bug?

[gumaciel]

Yes, I guess this is a bug, we will check why is this happening

[gumaciel]

@SanderVanhove we are migrating the iOS Plugin to a dedicated repository, you can check here: https://github.com/Poing-Studios/godot-admob-ios

Pros:

• You can change the version of your Plugin whenever you want to
• Separe the iOS code of Android code

[gumaciel]

Hi @SanderVanhove please try with out latest version: https://github.com/Poing-Studios/godot-admob-ios/releases/tag/1.1.0

[gumaciel]

Observation: You won't be able to load a new rewarded, interstitial or rewarded_interstitial ad if is not "closed"

[gumaciel]

@SanderVanhove i will close this issue since i tested sometimes here and seems it's fixed, if the problem persists you can open again the issue, thank you!
