Hello again!

I have a an Show Banner behavior in lets say about 50% in my scenes, but the Ads only show up if the previous scene had no Ads enabled.

Example:

1- Scene with Ad

2- Scene without Ad

3- Scene with Ad

works fine, but when I have this:

1- Scene with Ad

2- Scene with Ad

3- Scene With Ad

"2-" won't show any Ads. How so ever If I get to "2-" from an Scene without any ads it works fine.

Do I have to use blanket scenes between them now?

Hope you get my point

    @rombowich‌ , there are many reasons why this can happen.

    Most commonly it is that there is less than 30 seconds from one scene to the next. This is most probably the case here I assume.

    The fill rate in your country may be low, that is, not enough campaigns to go around.

    Your ads convert badly, so the ad provider delivers less ads to you, eventually even blocking ads.

    etc.

    Its kinda confusing to be honest. ItunesConnect says my filtrate is by 100%, I live in germany.

    Its seems more like the ad actor isn't loading in the next scene when there was an ad shown in the previous one. But thats just a guess and kinda weird :D

    @rombowich‌ , how long is it between scenes?

    Germany here too, fill rate is usually not the problem.

    Most Scenes aren´t very long, you can quickly change between the scenes.

    My specific example:

    Game Over (with ads)
    Main Menu (with ads)
    Options (without ads)

    If Im GameOver and switch to the Main Menu the Main Menu won't show any apps, If I then go from the MainMenu to the Options and back to the MainMenu (dosnt matter how fast you change between them) it will show the apps.

    From what I have read and believe , the "change scene" behaviour effectively kills an ad. From there I'm not sure why the ad doesn't show up after changing scenes but shows up later when you changed scene again.

    I have also found that "pause game" stop ad/makes it disappear.

    Perhaps contact gamesalad to see why.

    Yes change scene kill iAd but you can use a timer to force the show of iAd, example:
    put inside a timer like this "after 0.5Sec" Show Banner behaviour.

    I just tested the "afer 0.5Sec Timer" and unfortunately it didn't work.

    Update: It worked with a "after 1Sec Timer" , thanks for the help!
