Yes, the
ownerIDSelfDidChange event fires when the ownership of a RealtimeView changes, including when it becomes unowned. When no one owns the RealtimeView, the int parameter (representing the new owner ID) will be -1.
This behavior is consistent across RealtimeView, RealtimeComponent, and RealtimeModel, as they all have similar ownership properties. According to the RealtimeModel reference:
The client ID of the model owner. If the model is unowned, this returns -1.So, when the RealtimeView becomes unowned, the
ownerIDSelfDidChange event will fire with -1 as the new owner ID.
It's worth noting that you can also check the ownership status using the isUnownedSelf property, which will be true when the RealtimeView is not owned by any client, as mentioned in the RealtimeView reference:
isUnownedSelf: True if the component is not owned by any client.This property can be useful in conjunction with the
ownerIDSelfDidChange event to manage ownership-related logic in your application.
