About Interstitital Ads

Hello! I'm implementing Interstitital Ads with Admob, and manage to show then with Object -> Call Event, the problem is that when I add the "ShowInterstitial" event itappears the ad but the scene is still running in background, is there a way to stops everything when it shows it. Like when it says Wait until finish or soemthing?

Stop as in pause time? You could try turning on a Menu that pauses the game just beforehand.

You'll need to similarly turn it off again once the ad is over. Does the ad system have a callback that can be used to e.g. trigger an ActionList once it completes?

Havent thought of that. Creating a menu called Interstitial and then call the menu. Thanks for the idea. It works!

Ok, the only issue i see now that im testing it. You can say that when a menu is closed the gameplay will continue, but in that case. I open IntersttiialMenu, I close the ad but then scene still frozen. How can I manage to tell the interstitial code that when ad closed also is like menu closed also?

ChrisIceBox

That depends on the ad - does it not provide a callback event that can run code when the ad is closed?

CutyDina

Yes, is on InterstitialIsClosed, but how do I call the AC to continue gameplay from coding?

Ok, read the documentation and try to add this on my interstitial Code:

  private void ListenToInterstitialAdEvents()
  {
      interstitialAd.OnAdFullScreenContentClosed += () =>
      {
          Debug.Log("Interstitial ad closed.");

          //AC CODE
          PlayerMenus.GetMenuWithName(string AdMob);
          AC.AdMob.TurnOff();
      };
  }

But its giving me issues in the syntaxis, maybe im a little too noob on code? My menu name is AdMob.

PlayerMenus.GetMenuWithName("AdMob").TurnOff ();

Ok, was a syntaxis error by my side, thanks for the correction. That worked fine
