Wi-fi P2P. Inform all peers available of some event

Question

The problem: I\'m making an offline-multiplayer android game, where people can create or join a room and play together via Wi-fi. Consider the situation when a user creates

Answer 1

Basically, your design as I see it has very simple solution for the design with Wifi Direct.

Basically when creating "a room" that other can join, simply create a group, then do add local service to advertise the room.

note that you might need to start peer discovery, in order to be visible with your local service, at least my experience has been that, you do need to be active somehow, or you are not discoverable.

Then with clients, simply do service discovery and once you find the "room" simply connect to the it.

Then as the connections are initiated by the clients, the acceptance dialogs should be shown in Group owners side.
