Hi,
I just downloaded PZ and when i try to host a server via the host button it keeps getting stuck on the initializing part after making backups. I checked the coop-console.txt and first it said to disable the unpn setting if it got stuck there.
So i disabled it and manually port forwarded both 16261 and 16262. but it still gets stuck, I dont know where to go from here.

Is Zomboid given full read/write permissions for the $HOME/Zomboid folder?

mint coral
#

The third permission did not have create and delete files, i changed it now gonna attempt to host again

mint coral
#

i have given the one in common full permission as well but it doesnt seem to have changed anything

#

wait it might have, the .txt is showing a lot more this time around

#

nvm i was looking at the console.txt instead of coop

Can you try doing a steam file verification?

mint coral
#

yep

mint coral
#

i dont know if its relevant context but some things:
tried to run a coop server on my windows 10 laptop, instantly worked (so not sure if its really my port settings)
im running proton experimental

Can you run it on native rather than proton?

mint coral
#

didnt know that i shouldnt auto proton games

appreciate your time and help❤️
