Is GKLocalPlayer's gamePlayerID different from the gamePlayerID other players in the GKMatch can access/see?
I'm trying to make a real-time peer-to-peer multiplayer game with GameKit/Game Center. I'm trying to store a dictionary of player IDs and scores ([String:Int]) to keep track of and share player scores during a game. Essentially, I want to be able to increment the score of a player locally, then send the updated scores dictionary to all the other players. However, the GKLocalPlayer.local.gamePlayerID seems to be in a completely different format than any other connected GKPlayer, so when I try to access the GKMatch.players with the gamePlayerID, it isn't found (and yes, I'm aware that GKMatch.players doesn't contain the local player). The GKPlayer has an 18-digit long integer, whereas the GKLocalPlayer has A:_ and then a long hexadecimal number (I think it's 37 digits in decimal). Can someone explain this difference or point to some resources that explain how I can implement this functionality correctly? Here's a simplified example of what I'm doing: var scores: [String:Int] // dictionary of [gamePlayerID:Score] scores[myMatch.players.first.gamePlayerID] = 3 scores[GKLocalPlayer.local.gamePlayerID] = 5 sendScores(scores) // sends data to all players using myMatch.sendData() /* When the receiving players decode and try to access scores[gamePlayerIDOfSendingPlayer], it isn't found because it's different from that player's gamePlayerID in the receiving player's GKMatch.players array */

No .cancel() on AuthorizationController environment value?
I'm implementing passkeys by following the example from the Food Truck sample project. I have nearly everything working, but there's one problem. I'm using the AuthorizationController environment value and passing that to my login and register functions, but when I call authorizationController.performAutoFillAssistedRequest, I don't see or know of any way to cancel it, so if the user tries to type in their username instead of use the autofill suggestion, the second (non-autofill) request throws the error, The operation couldn’t be completed. Request already in progress for specified application identifier. I know that ASAuthorizationController has a cancel() function, but is there any way to do this with AuthorizationController?
