Publish and see it on your own Board
With automatic updates on for your own Board, as they are unless you turn them off, a build you publish reaches it by itself, within about a minute for a web game.
For creators. All guides
Set up BoardFlight on your computer
Get the app, sign in and pair your Board. It is the same app your players use.
Install your game once
Open your game in the library and press Install. Automatic updates only update a game that is already on the Board.
Choose the channel your Board follows
On your game’s page in the library, set Channel this Board follows to the channel you publish to (playground for a game you are building in the playground).
Leave automatic updates on
On My Boards, Update games automatically is on for your Board unless you switched it off. In BoardFlight itself, the same page has Keep BoardFlight running, which lets it work with its window closed.
Publish
Publish a build to that channel. While BoardFlight is running on your computer, it looks at your Board about once a minute and puts the new build on.
What to expect
- A web game is updated within about a minute. If the game is on screen it keeps running the old build: quit it and start it again to see the new one.
- A Unity game is closed by an update if it is running, so BoardFlight updates those by itself only between 3 and 6 in the morning, by your computer’s clock. To see a Unity build sooner, press Update on the game yourself.
