Disabling show_popups variable doesn't work

Hi, I'm using your plugin and works well (thanks for it), but at the first game run it show the Google Play Game Services Permission Popup, I think it will ask permission to modify or delete google play services data or something.

How do we prevent this to happen ?

I think user will be scared to continue playing the game when we asked permission to modify their Google Play Services and most will probably uninstalled the game when they read the popup dialog.

I just tried setting:

var show_popups := false
var request_email := false
var request_profile := false
var request_token := ""

but the result it's always the same.

PGSGP: Backend Token Verification – [Server-side] extension for increased security

I made the two following requests about a year ago in the original PGSGP, I think that such an extension or creation (of a server-side module) could be of great importance, especially for Godot-Android developers, and a great contribution to the security of the application can afford.

##############################################################

I would like to integrate token authentication on the server side for the PlayGamesServices so that only the server can make calls.
"Never trust the client" ;)

Seems to be a common practice:
https://developer.android.com/games/pgs/android/server-access

Here is a graphic (for better understanding):
https://developer.android.com/games/playgames/integrating-pgs-existing-id-solutions#restore_player_state

How can I have the token received - (on the backend) from the client - exchanged for the access token at Google Play Games Services. Is there a module for this or another solution? Thanks in advance! :)

GooglePlayServices (client-server model):
Does anyone know how to check my client's token on my game-server? Is there a module for Godot for this? (I also have to connect my server to "Google Play Games Services" and query the token there, right?)
🤔

Two more official links:

Error on init

Hi, i'm using your latest 3.1.1 version for Godot 3.3+ (also tried the previous 3.1.0), and i do have an error when calling the init method. GooglePlayServices are installed on the phone and i can use them in other games.
The singleton is found but the error says no init in it.

Any idea?

please update godot 4.2

Error when using Snapshots code on Godot 4.x.x

Hello there, I am having issues with some of the code in Godot 4. This has to do with Save Games. Sadly I don't really understand the issue or what is going on, but I will provide context and hopefully, it can be solved.

I am receiving the following error:
USER ERROR: Error calling from signal '_on_game_load_fail' to callable: 'Node2D(main.gd)::_on_game_load_fail': Method expected 1 arguments, but called with 0.

This occurs for _on_game_saved_fail too

For context, I am making the following connections as such (for Godot 4 compatibility)

# Saved games (cloud saves)
play_games_services.connect("_on_create_new_snapshot", Callable(self, "_on_create_new_snapshot"))

play_games_services.connect("_on_game_saved_success", Callable(self, "_on_game_saved_success"))
play_games_services.connect("_on_game_saved_fail", Callable(self, "_on_game_saved_fail"))

play_games_services.connect("_on_game_load_success", Callable(self, "_on_game_load_success"))
play_games_services.connect("_on_game_load_fail", Callable(self, "_on_game_load_fail"))

On the JSON side of things, I am using the methods directly from the JSON object. Specifically, the stringify() and parse_string(). Example:
from var available_events = parse_json(events_array) to var available_events = JSON.parse_string(events_array)
and
from play_games_services.saveSnapshot("SNAPSHOT_NAME", to_json(data_to_save), "DESCRIPTION") to play_games_services.saveSnapshot("SNAPSHOT_NAME", JSON.stringify(game_save_data), "This is a test")

The other code works using this implementation, it is just the snapshots part that is causing issues. Furthermore, if I try to show, save, or load snapshots only then do the other parts of the code present the same error message for their respective signals for some reason.

Hopefully we can find solutions to this, I will update this thread if I find one.

Sign in onResume

If activity is in the background for a while, the app loses sign-in status, and cant open for example leaderboard.

According to Google docs, sign in should be called onResume

Since the state of the signed-in player can change when the activity is not in the foreground, we recommended calling silentSignIn() from the activity's onResume() method.

btw thank you for this plugin!

Wrong "release" link in README.md file

In the README.md file,, the reference to the "release" page link to the "cgisca" page.

The correct link would be:
