[41.78] [Dedicated Multiplayer] Can’t join dedicated servers

Chernobilly · November 11, 2022

Hello,

I am having issues joining dedicated servers (Nitrado, IndifferentBroccoli) and only able to play on steam hosted servers.

I play on my own rented server through Nitrado with a friend, and as of yesterday (last played with no issues last week 3/11/22) I am the only one experiencing issues connecting to the server, with Error 1/Error 2 showing every time on the bottom right of Connecting to Server. My server had mods, so I tried doing a complete server wipe launching it vanilla, and again only my friend was able to successfully connect. Thinking it was a possible issue with Nitrado, I rented another server through IndifferentBroccoli, launched with no mods, and same issue again. Tried verifying integrity of my game files, same issue connecting on both. Re-installed the game multiple times, same issue connecting on both.

My friend then tried hosting their own PZ vanilla server through the game, which I was able to connect to; then they hosted another one, with all the same mods that I had on my server, and I was able to successfully connect with no errors. However, since neither of us have good enough specs to host as smoothly compared to renting a server, playing through steam host is not an option for us.

The following is the error in my console.txt file of when I couldn’t connect to my own Nitrado server with the mods enabled:
