Can I close a Session for new Participants but keep it open for joined ones?

Hi,

I'm using Project Rome in my UWP game for Multiplayer turned based game playing. It seems to work OK but I have a question or maybe a feature request.

Can I close a Session for new Participants but keep it open for joined ones? The host can start a game after 1 or more participants have joined the session. When the games is started no extra participants are allowed. If other users try to discover a session they still see the already started game. I would love to be able to "hide" session for discovery.

I used the QuizGame sample code (SessionManager) as a starting point for my own game.

@sonnemaf thanks for the question.

A RemoteSystemSession can be marked invite-only (see doc here) which will make it non-discoverable. However, a discoverable RemoteSystemSession (discoverable == non-invite-only) cannot be changed to invite-only after creation.
