I am planning to release a game on Steam using convai. Can users play without special settings?
I believe that all users will be able to play the game in the same way as long as they have been given a Character’s ID in advance. However, I am developing with UE5. What happens if I use Utility Functions such as Create Character and Update Character?
When I used Create Character, a new character was created in My Character on the Dashboard. How does this work on the user side?
To begin with, can I release a game using convai? Please let me know if there is a guide, etc. <@&1163218672580575372>
Absolutely you can create a game with Convai, you can use the function ‘Set API Key’ to pass the player’s api key to the game and then when you create or update a character it will be on this user’s account

Thank you. I would like to check some more details.
Is it not necessary for users to access https://www.convai.com and create an account?

<@848877255198900269> If every player has to enter their own API key then they will have to create an account.

I would like to update the backstory in the middle of the game. Also, the backstory changes depending on the user. In that case, do I need to have the user enter the API key himself? If I set my API, the backstory will be strange. If I distribute the game to users, should I not use Utility Functions such as Create Character and Update Character?

While updating the character you don’t need to enter the API key again. You can just use the functions like UpdateCharacter to enter a new backstory. If you want to create a new one then you can surely use the Create Character function. But the voices and language also has be updated along with it.

I set my API to the game. 3 users play the game. Inside, I have implemented Create Character function. In this case, will there be 3 more My Characters in my Dashboard?If you do not understand what I mean, I would like to explain with images, etc.
When using the Update or Create Characte feature, it is impractical to use my API key if many users play the game.
As shown below, the only way to get many users to play the game is to have users create accounts? Is there any other strategy? Discord <@&1163218672580575372>
