I've been trying to play u2 online multiplayer with my girlfriend but we're having a problem where anytime I try to join her or she tries to join me, we get stuck at "waiting for connection". She's played through the tutorial, accepted the privacy policy, verified her steam files, and even tried reinstalling the game to no avail. I'm able to join other public games and host games, but for some reason she can't do either, so I'm thinking it has something to do with her game. Also, when I try joining her, we noticed that under the "manage lobby and players", I was listed as a player on her game.

can you send me your logs from
%appdata%\godot\app_userdata\Unrailed2\logs
(in the best case from both of you)
You both have your own steam account, right?

we do, and here are my logs

Some possible mitigations:
- Can you check whether the system time is up to date on both systems? Our networking middleware might not like it.
Some further questions:
- Is one of you able to connect to other lobbies online? - So does the error seem to be caused only at one device? Can we run as admin there and / temporarily disable ther firewall or check if other services might intercept the network traffic?

It seems to be just on her side since I can join and host other players and she can do neither. I believe the time settings are right on both devices. Neither of us will be at our computers until much later in the day, but I know what you're talking about with the firewall and can check the settings for that when we're on. We'll get back to you when we do that.

Update! Apparently my pc did not have the time zones set to "automatic", and once that was switched on, I've been able to join/host no problem. No need for changing firewall/checking network traffic. This solved it!

Okay nice! I'm glad that it's working now! Thanks for letting us know 🙂

This is still present. Just got it from joining random game lobbies. Also had the issue last night with someone we were playing with just a few minutes before.
