Quick Question on Photon and logins

Hello! I am just wondering how Photon works with login systems. Does it have a feature to handle logins itself? or does it have nothing to do with logins?

also any links to resources and tutorials on the subject of setting up photon with logins would be much loved!

i am making a destroy the nexus style game (league of legends, smite, ect) for me and some friends ( we have a audience of about 50) i want to have a login system to save player stats and items. Any extra info/links/resources that you think might help me out would also be very appreciated!

Thanks for your time!

You can combine Photon with any login/account system you have in place. This feature is called “Custom Authentication” and is quite flexible. There is a doc page “Custom Authentication with Facebook” which should provide the needed info.

Aside from that, PlayFab is a great service to combine with Photon. It’s list of features goes way beyond user accounts, inventory and in-game item sales. Might be worth checking out.
