I found a couple of threads that was just closed by mods on the forums. So I rented the server last night and we are unable to connect to the server from 2 different geographical locations. We're stuck on Loading... screens, we've also opened a ticket pertaining this, the ticket as of the time of this post is still in "New" status.
Symptoms:
Upon connecting to the server, pw was put in and accepted, the server does recognize there's a player on the server, the client was able to pick a starting planet, client gets to Loading... splash screen and is stuck there indefinitely.
The following has been done in attempt to troubleshoot the issue:
- Re installation of the server.
- Version confirmed to be Experimental 12.4.2 on both server and clients.
- Port forwarding TCP/UDP has been added to client's router.
- EACLauncher/Empyrion Launcher has been configured to run as admin as well as excluded from local AV scans and blocks.
- The clients are confirmed to be able to access other experimental server in the game list.
- Upon re installation of the server we attempted to run the server in pure vanilla settings to no avail.
- Tried running with EAC on and off to no avail.
Any insight into this would be awesome!
Thanks in advance!
