**Brief description**
The following two PubSub topics pertaining to extension… s don't like to reconnect
- Twitch Extension pubsub.
- Twitch Extension control pubsub.
The former:
https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/extensions/reference#helper-extensions
The listen events described there
And the latter:
The Extension Control pubsub, the one that live changes what extensions are active on a give stream.
Both of these topics, are not "reconnect" safe on the main Twitch PubSub.
Resulting in the wrong extensions being loaded, or extensions no longer receiving PubSub broadcasted events
**How to reproduce**
Leave a Twitch stream open for an amount of time.
Today's issue occured on itmeJP's channel after about 30 minutes. The loaded extension stopped receiving PubSub broadcasted events.
**Expected behavior**
Whenever Twitch "main" pubsub reconnects, or whatever, reconnect the extension control and extension listen topics.
**Additional context or questions**
It's both an extensions issue and a main website issue.
It's unclear what can cause the main Twitch pubsub feed to die.
Where the streamer changes what extensions are active and the updated list is not pushed to connected clients properly as the client is disconnected/not correctly connected. A refresh by the user reloads the data from master
