Laravel 5.4 $ redirectTo不工作

Question

I am stuck with getting the redirectTo() function override in my LoginController.php as shown in the Laravel docs here.

My controller contains:

/**
 * URI where we redirect to after login
 *
 * @var string
 */
protected $redirectTo = 'player/home';

/**
 * Set route redirect
 *
 * @return mixed
 */
protected function redirectTo()
{
    dd("STOP"); <-- does not trigger

    if (session()->has('game.details')) {
        return route(session()->get('game.details.setup_route'));
    } else {
        return 'player/home';
    }
}

Why would the dd never trigger and the page always redirects to player/home? Thanks

Although I did not get the method override working, I solved it by changing these lines in the login method:

    if ($this->attemptLogin($request)) {
        session()->put('game.details', Game::findByUUIDOrFail($uuid));

        $this->redirectTo = route(session()->get('game.details.setup_route'));

        return $this->sendLoginResponse($request);
    }
