Detecting in app purchases

dimkadimon

Hello! I am having problems detecting in app purchases. How can I detect that an item has been purchased? I tried using iap.purchase_owned(item) but it didn't work. Perhaps I should be using iap.has_purchased() instead?

what addon/library are you using and what version of godot? Ah, a quick google search indicates that you should be using godot 3 and that you are trying to use the demo project bundled in the demos repository.

heres the documentation page for anyone looking to help: https://docs.godotengine.org/en/3.0/tutorials/platform/android_in_app_purchases.html

Alas I don't currently own an android device and do not develop for android so I can only be of very limited help with this.

I am using godot 2.15 and the demo Android IAP project. I think I should be using IAP.request_purchased() to get all the purchased items. I will try this and write how it works.

Hrm, 2.1 documentation does not seem to include any documentation for the IAP plugin. I guess the best you can do is try to infer from the 3.0 documentation I have linked above.

I sort of got it working. The trick is purchasing takes some time to update. So you need to start a timer and then check once in a while (eg every second) whether on_purchase_success() has been called.

The problem I have now is detecting previous purchases when starting the game. I call iap.request_purchased() and then wait for on_has_purchased() to fire, but it never does! Any help would be greatly appreciated.
