Sever disappearing

[dawn ridge]

if you're hosting your game (listen server) then it's only online if you are, if you want a server online all the time you'd have to create a dedicated server: https://discord.com/channels/944307356693577799/1018400650146627594

No, when we first start the game, the server is there, but if the host were to disconnect in any way during the playing time, the next time he launches the world up we can not join the game nor find the server in the tabs anymore.

[dawn ridge]

so you're saying this is a dedicated server?

[crude oxide]

Yes

[dawn ridge]

What you're explaining makes me believe that the host is just enabling multiplayer and then people can join him... are you sure this isn't the case?

to clarify further, dedicated servers will have a checkmark next to them in the server list:

[crude oxide]

Yeah when we start the game we enable multiplayer but if the host were to disconnect at anytime the non host cant join back?

then relaunch the non host cant join back is what i mean

[dawn ridge]

this is called a listen server, so if the host goes offline then the server is offline

[lyric horizon]

so there is no way to get that server back?

[dawn ridge]

when loading a previously saved game, there will be an option to enable multiplayer:

you have to enable it each time when loading the save

[crude oxide]

how would you do that?

[dawn ridge]

can you elaborate a little bit? do what?

[crude oxide]

Ah we figured it out was worried we were going to lose all of our progress again. Thanks a lot bro\
