Bluetooth multiplayer problem

[Slighmd]

Hi! Pls help, in multiplayer using bluetooth (3G and 3GS), the devices always get disconnected. I tried this on 2 different 3GS's and 2 different 3G's and the connection between devices still drops, disconnects

Apologies with the bluetooth play.. Due to the way our game works and the construction of the actual iPhone, bluetooth play can have issues.

There are ways to increase connectivity tho.. Firstly the iphone is prone to alot of interference, so if u are playing in a heavily congested wifi area then that could cause issues.. E.g. an office full of PCs and wifi stations can cause havok..

Also the iphone uses its one aerial for both bluetooth and wifi, so another thing u can do is turn off wifi mode (via phone options) - we found this helps alot..

With the iphone, wifi is given greator priority over bluetooth, so if the iphone wishes to send / receive over wifi for whatever reason, the bluetooth part just has to wait.. This can unfortunately cause disconnects.

Hope those tips help..

Thanks for the tips. Turning off wifi, albeit still gettng disconnects, helped a lot as it reduced them. Waiting for the online mode, no more bluetooth problem there :)
