Trying to help troubleshoot the game for a friend who I've played with for a while, but haven't been able to have a session for a few weeks. I've got their log text here, and from what I can tell, the API call just fails for an untraced reason? Apologies for not having much more information than this, I can find out more on request if needed. I guess I'm just trying to find out if this is a common error message, and if there's something simple to blame. Thanks!

#

Forgot to send the actual log sorry

They are, yes

#

Is that an issue?

#

They've changed their steam name, but that hasn't worked

@torn linden Any idea what Nameresolutionfailure would mean

#

And I suppose @real bobcat as well

Fizz is the friend, for reference

#

Of course other things apply, no cfosspeed or anything that messes with packets

#

or VPNs

#

Using a VPN actually seemed to be a workaround to the issue? But it made the game exceedingly unstable

#

(Crashes, dropped players, a weird bug where an opened security "closed" when we were on the other side of it)

or stuff like goodbyedpi

I can imagine lmao

#

Assuming you two are from the same country there shouldn't be those kind of issues, as a rule of thumb

#

But if you're from continents apart it becomes harder NOT to have some sort of desync

#

I'm from New Zealand, he's from Australia iirc? Might be wrong on that, can't properly remember

#

We've played for a few months without any issues at all

Try restarting modem/router and all the usual suspects already mentioned like DNS

#

The other two we play with are from Aus though

#

We've tried restarting game, computer, router, and verifying files

#

Well hirnu should have a better idea on things

#

That said, haven't seen this error before, so won't be able to help much anyways
