Hiya, I have a question related to backfill logic. When creating the backfill ticket, we can pass in the list of players currently considered on the match, I'm wondering whether I should use the members in the GetMatch api response, or should I filter that based on who is actually connected to the server?

  • By using members in the GetMatch response, I'm worried that players matchmade but end up not joining the server will take up the space, so we won't have a full server.
  • By using the currently connected user, I'm worried that we will end up with more players matchmade into the server, and if they all join, we'll exceed the number of player limit we set for the server.

Any ideas what is the best practice for this? Thanks!
