# Actions

The **Photon** module comes with a set of **Actions** that complement **Game Creator**'s. All actions can be used on any other module

{% hint style="warning" %}
Most of the Actions won't work if you are not connect to the Photon Service unless you have **offline mode** activated.
{% endhint %}

## Synchronizing Actions

Synchronizing Actions it's just as easy as a single click. Once the module it's installed you will notice a new tab called "**Network Settings**" below the *Action's Inspector* in order to make this work just go ahead and enabled the option "**Sync Actions**" that's pretty much it (well that was actually 2 clicks).

{% hint style="warning" %}
This requires to be within a **room** to work. Nothing happens if not.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="danger" %}
If you are *synchronizing* **actions** some times you might need to use target **Invoker** instead of **Player**
{% endhint %}

Once you enabled **Sync Actions** you can select the [targets](https://njg.gitbook.io/gc-modules/~/drafts/-LGavgvIRvIu9eDV2NNm/primary/photon-network/photon-network/overview#targets) you want to synchronize with.

{% hint style="info" %}
Notice that this will add a **Photon View** component to the game object.
{% endhint %}

## Action Photon Connect <a href="#action-photon-connect" id="action-photon-connect"></a>

Allows you connect to the Photon Service, parameters:

* **Game Version**: this client's version number. Users are separated from each other by game version (which allows you to make breaking changes).
* **Methods:** this action allows you to connect using 3 different method types:
  * **UsingSettings**: Connect to Photon as configured in the PUN settings
  * **Region**: Connects to the Photon Cloud region of choice.
  * **BestCloudServer**: Connect to the Photon Cloud region with the lowest ping.

{% hint style="danger" %}
Connecting to the **Photon Cloud** might fail due to:

\- **Invalid AppId** calls: OnFailedToConnectToPhoton. check exact AppId value

\- **Network issues** calls: OnFailedToConnectToPhoton

\- **Invalid region** calls: OnConnectionFail with DisconnectCause.InvalidRegion

\- **Subscription CCU limit reached** calls: OnConnectionFail with DisconnectCause.MaxCcuReached. also calls: OnPhotonMaxCccuReached
{% endhint %}

## Actions Photon Disconnect <a href="#actions-photon-disconnect" id="actions-photon-disconnect"></a>

Makes this client disconnect from the photon server, a process that leaves any room and calls OnDisconnectedFromPhoton on completion.

## Action Photon Instantiate <a href="#action-photon-instantiate" id="action-photon-instantiate"></a>

Instantiate a prefab over the network. There is 2 types of instantiations:

* **Player Object**: the owner of the object is the player. Normally when player disconnects all instantiated player objects will be destroyed.
* **Scene Object**: the owner of the object is the scene. The object will always be there unless someone destroys it.

{% hint style="warning" %}
This prefab needs to be defined in **Prefabs list** from **Photon Preferences Settings** or located in the root of a "Resources" folder.
