Whenever me or my friend try to join eachother through any means, steam invite, manual join, code, we get this screen in screenshot. We have tried restarting router and pc's. we have cleared download cache, we have all necessary ports open.
#Just bought game, cannot join my friend

Does your friend have ”bots and players” as the red button when he’s hosting? Further more if you have a vpn enabled disable it
vestal citrus
neither of us are using a vpn and we changed the "bots and players" into "players only" and it didnt work
late ridge
Both are using steam version right?
vestal citrus
yes
late ridge
And you can’t join via a req sent via steam chats/thru steam friends tab?
vestal citrus
nope
late ridge
Huh
@chilly heart I got nothing else lol
He’s the one that actually knows how to fix stuff
chilly heart
So for some reason your friend just can't join your session, no errors or anything present
@vestal citrus maybe your friend's logs might also help, tell him to send it here as well
@ancient swallow Ever seen anything like this before?
chilly heart
i cant join them either
ye I know, but maybe their logs would be what I need to see the issue
Cause if they're the one that's having the problem (not being able to join anyone and no one able to join them), that might just mean that they're the ones that are causing the issue
Not you
chilly heart
All the stuff look normal enough
If you're all using the legit versions of this game everything should be fine
Hirnu and sleepo might come by later and take a look, maybe they'll see something i don't
You aren't running mods at all, right?
chilly heart
i cant join them either
certain mods don't allow people to join each other, though I don't think this is what's happening
vestal citrus
no mods no
late ridge
no mods no
mods isnt bad in this game, some genuine nice to haves to fix bugs

isp maybe blocking udp or doing sneaky double nat stuff.. try mobile 4g/5g hotspot/tether, disconnect normal net.. works? router or isp issue
late ridge
@vestal citrus could you ask your friend to screenshot their lobby screen? i wanna check smth
chilly heart
<@714442098954338404> could you ask your friend to screenshot their lobby screen...
He's on the same version I think
late ridge
Nvm then
vestal citrus
Just found a fix
my friend had multiple static ips
when he removed the extra ones he was no longer using in his setup we could load
hope this helps someone else lol
late ridge
holy lol
