HEL City Survivor Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Occasionally, my server reports as "fails to respond" in the favourites. It shows up as not responding immediately, I suspect the connection is not even attempted? Refresh doesn't help. This can happen while another player can connect just fine and is playing on the server. Trying to connect regardless of the reported status also fails with "server failed to respond". Oddly enough, trying to connect with "-nosteam" and failing and then going back without "-nosteam" seems to fix it: have witnessed this twice personally, and a friend has had this happen, too. Server logs do not show anything hinting at even an attempt to connect, when it's failing. 41.60 Multiplayer. Dedicated. No. Reproduction steps: Favourited server fails to respond, even though it's running and other people can connect. Restart PZ with "-nosteam", try to connect to server (the same, haven't tried anything else). Fails to connect. Restart PZ without "-nosteam". Server is responding on Favourites list and can be connected to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HEL City Survivor Posted January 4, 2022 Author Share Posted January 4, 2022 Had this happen again, and the workaround worked, again. I doubt it has anything to do with the server actually being unresponsive or unreachable. More likely to be an issue with the server browser, or the server's Steam integration?

HEL City Survivor Posted January 4, 2022 Author Share Posted January 4, 2022 I'll PM the IP and port information, if needed for investigating. I'll probably try snooping on the network traffic myself, when time permits, in order to get more insight into this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beard Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 There are some issues with the steam P2P integration that will be looked into, generally the server shouldnt need to use Steams P2P but it is being investigated right now.

Are there any server settings that can be used to mitigate the problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beard Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Not that I know of except the -nosteam parameter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
