I saw that there is a new metric in the engagement labs feature "Cumulative Revenue (ILRD)" It's nice. It would be great to have Cumulative Revenue Per User (ILRD) as well

It's hard to test AB's. There's no in-built system to force the game into one cohort. Would be nice to have it or any advice how to make it

In the previous version of our game, when reporting Design Events, a large number of meaningless events were wrongly reported. We subsequently updated the version and fixed this issue. However, when I need to count the Design Events of the new version, I found that in Event id 01 of the Explore section, there are no Event ids from the new version. Instead, it's all filled with the wrongly - reported meaningless events from the previous version. I suspect that the number of meaningless events has exceeded the upper limit of the allowable number of events for statistics, which has prevented the new events of the new version from being recorded. May I ask how I can fix this problem, delete those meaningless events from the backend, and start recording the Event ids of the new version normally?

Sometimes especially when test sample is not that huge a few very engaged players can alter the picture entirely. Is it possible to filter 2-5% most engaged players to get more median results?

1- The groups in the widget extend outside the widget. This problem is especially seen in small widgets. 2- When we set the widgets to the smallest size, the "aggregation" value hides the title and this is annoying. I would like to see my own title in my own widget. I think you should place the aggregation value under the title.

I just spent an afternoon trying to get the Unreal integration to work. To be clear, I'm installing from GitHub (which already had issues because if you try to download the Source.zip from releases, the big .lib file isn't there, instead you get the LFS stub). I'm using UE5.4.4 and C++ (not Blueprints). I almost gave up, but I dug into the issues and here's what I found. The instructions from https://docs.gameanalytics.com/integrations/sdk/unreal seem to indicate that GameAnalytics acts as an analytics provide for Unreal. This sounds great, except that Unreal doesn't run analytics provider in non-editor builds - so game/cooked builds wouldn't work properly. This is obvious if you look at the function "void FEngineAnalytics::Initialize()" in "EngineAnalytics.cpp" (this is Unreal's code). As a result, simply calling UGameAnalytics::initialize as the instructions indicate is insufficient, and the analytics engine is misconfigured. Besides, all the configuration that exists in the Project Settings is completely ignored, because it's only accessed when a session is started using the analytics provider interface. It was also very inconvenient that the SDK-CPP lib came in binary format, preventing me from debugging it and figuring out the issue much faster. I even had to modify the integration to add a log handler to understand why some events (resource) were not being sent correctly. Overall, I'm disappointed by the integration process. I don't know if going with Blueprints would've been better - though it that still relies on the analytics provider interface I doubt it. My advice would've been to essentially expose a very thin interface over the CPP lib, just transforming from FString to char*, and then make those available to Blueprints as static functions. The module already handles Startup and Shutdown, so integration could be seamless.

Hi! I initialize GA SDK in Unity and at this moment send ProgressionEvent "Start_game_ready". But in Dashboard I see data like 4600 DAU and 2600 players with "Start_game_ready" event Why does it happen? When DAU calculated? Before initializing? GameAnalytics.Initialize(); ProgressionEvent(GAProgressionStatus.Complete, "Start_game_ready");

Can you please add global filters back to the Cohorts module? V2 had this and I don't see any way to filter here so the the functionality took a step back. The engagement tab can be used similarly except there is no weighted mean at the bottom which also seems lacking. Ideally this would also be added to the engagement tab. Either one of the above would rectify the issue here.

When you look at charts like Revenue in menus like Realtime, Dashboards, Explore, etc., the charts don't look reasonable when there are a lot of items. Let's take a look at the Revenue chart by product as an example. [First screenshot] You can see that there are 5 items and 33 more items in the chart. Well, the best-selling item seems to have made about $120-$150 a day. [Second screenshot] The item that has made the most money recently seems to be... main_monthlt_grow. ★ <First problem> The information in the window where the details are displayed is not sorted, so it's really hard to find the information you want! [Third screenshot] This is where the real problem comes in. Since there are so many types of products, only one graph is displayed on the chart for some products. Of course, this is easy to understand. It would be too confusing if all the graphs for all items were displayed on the screen. But the real problem is that this information is not 'sorted' at all. Let's look at the following screenshot. [Fourth screenshot] Select to display event_legend and event_pass items. Voila! The graph is completely different! The event_legend product even made over $500 in revenue in one day. We don’t see this important information at a glance. We have to manually edit the chart every time we look at it so that we don’t miss this information. [Fifth screenshot] Of course, if we draw the chart by sorting only by revenue, we can see which products are selling the best much faster and easier. However, we don’t know how much is sold by date or what the trend is for each product. Revenue information is very important, and we hope to improve these issues with the chart.

Please help to build a session histogram like it was possible in old GA tool (see attached). Thanks in advance!
