I tried to make a cluster in ARK, but I cannot find my second server in the game.
The IP address in my second server looks so weird as my first one, even though they are in the same game cloud.

The IP won't matter. How did you cluster them?

supple fossil Feb 8, 2024, 3:18 PM

#

@brazen wave

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 7:34 AM

#

I set them with the same cluster ID, like a 28 digit ID

#

Like what the Gportal video told

I mean the second server is in the same game cloud, but with different IP started, like one start with 176, another with 180(maybe, just an example)

#

I still cannot find another server in “transfer to another server”

#

brazen wave I set them with the same cluster ID, like a 28 digit ID

Did you make up your own or did you use the cluster ID it gave you then copy to the other one?

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 4:08 PM

#

@brazen wave

#

You need to use the cluster ID provided. So on the first one, there will be a cluster ID there. Copy that cluster ID then paste it to your second server.

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 4:43 PM

I tried provided ID and own ID

#

Both of them don’t work

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 4:44 PM

#

brazen wave I tried provided ID and own ID

I'm not sure what you mean

#

So you can't make up your own. That won't work.

#

So we can start there.

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 4:44 PM

#

Like it provide ID first

#

I copy to the second server

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 4:44 PM

#

Make sure you have enabled on both.

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 4:44 PM

#

And I see it still not work, I tried own ID

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 4:45 PM

#

supple fossil Make sure you have enabled on both.

I am sure both are enable cross ARK

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 4:45 PM

#

I don't know what you mean by "own ID".

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 4:45 PM

#

Like the ID I created

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 4:46 PM

#

Ok. That will not work.

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 4:46 PM

#

I was being told in the ticket, the guy want me to create a 28 digit cluster ID

#

So I just follow it

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 4:47 PM

#

How long was the original one?

#

That doesn't make sense to me, but I'm not support so there may be something about that I don't know.

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 4:49 PM

#

supple fossil How long was the original one?

Sorry, I didn’t get it

#

You mean the length of ID?

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 4:50 PM

#

Yes

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 4:50 PM

#

The original one is 12 digits

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 4:50 PM

#

Ok. That would be correct.

#

Ok let's start from the beginning.

#

Go to the server that you would choose as your original. Just calling it that. Pick one then scroll down to "Cross Ark Travel".

#

Let me know when you get there.

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 4:53 PM

#

Yes, I was there

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 4:54 PM

#

Are you there now?

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 4:54 PM

#

Yes, I am at the “Cross Ark Travel”

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 4:54 PM

#

Do you have that enabled or disabled?

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 4:55 PM

#

It’s enabled

#

For both servers

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 4:55 PM

#

We're not talking about both just yet.

#

Ok so you have it enabled. Take a look at your cluster ID. Just make a mental note.

#

After that refresh the page.

#

See if it changes the cluster id

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 4:57 PM

#

Refresh the page won’t change the cluster id

#

Delete as blank and then refresh will work

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 4:57 PM

#

Please just follow me. lol

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 4:58 PM

#

Okay, it didn’t change, what’s next?

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 4:58 PM

#

Ok. The cluster ID that is there, is it the one you made up?

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 4:58 PM

#

Yes

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 4:58 PM

#

Also, are your servers stopped right now?

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 4:59 PM

#

Not stop

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 4:59 PM

#

Stop them first

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 4:59 PM

#

Both of them?

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 4:59 PM

#

I mean you can just stop the one you are working on right now if you want to.

#

But, you are going to have to stop them both to get them to work.

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:00 PM

#

Okay I stopped them

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:01 PM

#

brazen wave Yes

Ok so here, you said that the cluster ID is the one that you made up yourself. Correct?

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:01 PM

#

Yes, it is correct

#

The cluster ID right now is the one I made up myself

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:02 PM

#

Ok. Disable Cross Travel

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:02 PM

#

Ok, disabled

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:03 PM

#

Now refresh and see if you can get a cluster ID that is not one you made up.

#

You may have to save first after you disabled.

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:05 PM

#

No, the ID didn’t change.

#

I am sure I disabled and saved

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:05 PM

#

Ok I'm going to dm you an ID to put in there for you.

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:06 PM

#

brazen wave I am sure I disabled and saved

After you disabled and saved, you refreshed, right?

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:06 PM

#

Yes, you mean refresh the page right?

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:06 PM

#

Yes

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:06 PM

#

Then I did everything right

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:07 PM

#

Ok. Since your ID did not change, I'm going to dm you an ID to put in there.

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:07 PM

#

Got it

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:07 PM

#

Sent you a friend request so I can dm you.

#

Ok I dm'd you a code.

#

Enable travel first, then put that code in.

#

Save then refresh and make sure it stays the same.

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:12 PM

#

Should I do this to both of them?

#

I got it on the first server

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:12 PM

#

brazen wave I got it on the first server

So when you refresh, the id I gave you stays the same, right?

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:12 PM

#

yes

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:13 PM

#

Great! Make sure you have saved.

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:13 PM

#

Yes, it saved

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:13 PM

#

You can start that server now if you want. Then go to your other server. Make sure it's stopped.

#

Are you there yet?

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:14 PM

#

Okay, I run the first server

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:14 PM

#

Awesome.

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:14 PM

#

And now i was at the second

#

I stopped this server, what's next?

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:15 PM

#

Ok great. Disable travel, save.

#

Let me know when you've done that.

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:15 PM

#

Done

#

The id didn't change as usual

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:15 PM

#

Ok on cluster ID PASTE in the code. Don't type it. Copy and paste.

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:16 PM

#

Yes, I pasted it

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:17 PM

#

Ok enable travel, then save.

#

After you do that, refresh to make sure the cluster ID stays the same.

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:18 PM

#

yes, it stays the same

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:18 PM

#

Awesome!

#

Enable travel then save again.

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:19 PM

#

yes, I enabled the travel and saved

#

If I don't enabled the travel, it won't saved

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:20 PM

#

Ok. Now that it's enabled and save, when you refresh, the cluster ID stays the same, right?

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:20 PM

#

yes

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:20 PM

#

Ok good.

#

Before we move on, did you change any of the settings for it?

#

Like the prevents

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:21 PM

#

no prevents

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:21 PM

#

#

So they all look like this, right?

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:21 PM

#

only the expiration time

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:21 PM

#

supple fossil So they all look like this, right?

yes

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:22 PM

#

brazen wave only the expiration time

What do you have that set at?

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:22 PM

#

6000000 seconds

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:22 PM

#

On which part?

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:23 PM

#

Tribute Character/Item/Doni Expiration Seconds

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:23 PM

#

#

Set everything like this.

#

After that, save it.

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:24 PM

#

do I need to set the first server like this?

fair mason Feb 10, 2024, 5:24 PM

#

supple fossil So you can't make up your own. That won't work.

actually You can make your own ID

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:25 PM

#

the second was set like this

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:25 PM

#

fair mason actually You can make your own ID

How long does it have to be and are there any stipulations to make this work?

#

I couldn't get it to work when I tried it myself.

fair mason Feb 10, 2024, 5:25 PM

#

Don't think a limit, Ive seen people use 4 letter words

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:25 PM

#

😂

fair mason Feb 10, 2024, 5:25 PM

#

Long story short, The cluster id, Is just the folder name stuff is stored

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:25 PM

#

Brain goes straight to creative 4 letter words.

fair mason Feb 10, 2024, 5:25 PM

#

so unquie is better, So its not shared

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:26 PM

#

I m sure my Cluster ID is pretty unique before

#

🤣

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:26 PM

#

I created one for them. We can continue troubleshooting with it.

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:27 PM

#

Okay

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:27 PM

#

Don't change it. Leave it like it is. But, I do want you to change the exp seconds like I showed in the screenshot. Those are default.

#

Need to rule out other things.

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:28 PM

#

yes, now I set them as default

fair mason Feb 10, 2024, 5:28 PM

#

Checked both servers, And looks like he set right

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:28 PM

#

both of them

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:28 PM

#

Ok save those.

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:28 PM

#

saved

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:28 PM

#

Ok if everything looks set right on the settings, we can move to in-game possible issues.

fair mason Feb 10, 2024, 5:29 PM

#

my guess

#

when transfering

#

he not marking the password protected box

#

so he cant see it, since both password protected.

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:29 PM

#

^^^

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:29 PM

#

fair mason he not marking the password protected box

I marked

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:29 PM

#

Exactly the next steps I'm looking to troubleshoot

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:29 PM

#

I tried everything

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:29 PM

#

brazen wave I marked

Where are you marking it?

fair mason Feb 10, 2024, 5:30 PM

#

can you provide screenshots of what your seeing ingame?

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:30 PM

#

on the left down side in game

#

It saied display the protected server or not

#

I tried both

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:31 PM

#

On your main screen when you first log on to the first server, from the very beginning, how are you filtering?

#

Like Brad said, screenshots would be invaluable.

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:31 PM

#

I didn't use filtering when I first log on the first server

#

Because I cannot find my server by filtering

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:32 PM

#

Ok

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:32 PM

#

I used steam directly joined

#

from the Steam, and use view my server

#

And I typed IP and joined in

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:32 PM

#

fair mason can you provide screenshots of what your seeing ingame?

.

fair mason Feb 10, 2024, 5:32 PM

#

Login to the server now, The go to a beacon, Try transfering

#

Screenshot this if u cant find the server

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:39 PM

#

#

I asked my friend to do this, and this was his screen shot

#

I got it

#

I know what you are saying

#

the protected problem

fair mason Feb 10, 2024, 5:41 PM

#

ya

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:41 PM

#

🥲

fair mason Feb 10, 2024, 5:41 PM

#

pretty common, i get a handful of tickets a week on it 🙂

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:43 PM

#

So is it fixed?

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:44 PM

#

yes

supple fossil Feb 10, 2024, 5:44 PM

#

Sweet

brazen wave Feb 10, 2024, 5:44 PM

#

Appreciate!
