Hosting issues

Also. In 'Settings'/'Basic', my password is not remembered when I go to 'Log In'. Some other password is in there ... I don't know what the string is ... so I have to enter my password in every time before I 'Log In'. I click 'Save' every time.

This part is a known issue. The good news is that you don't have to go in to go in there and log in every time for normal use. You only have to log in once, unless you changed your password on this site.

"If your game closed unexpectedly then the game is not being cleared from the lobby. It is a known issue. Switch to local and you will be able to start a campaign or load an existing one."


I have attempted restarting and I have shut down my computer over night, this issue persists. Can you remove me from the active server list so I can continue to work on this campaign until there is a fix? I appreciate it.

Can you start a Local server?

Can you start a Local server?

Yes but I was trying to log my second laptop into a game via the cloud to see how it was done. The local works but cloud has the message stating I am already using a server. Is there a way to resettle server issue on my end to allow me to log back in?

Just run the campaign as a local server and connect your second laptop using the local IP address. No need to use the cloud if the player computer is on the same network as the GM.

Thanks for that.

The Lobby is the start screen when you start or load a campaign.
See the attached for where to switch between cloud and local
You can't clear the cloud server; it should clear itself but as noted above it isn't doing so.

Thank for that.

I'm having the same issue. I started my cloud campaign a few days ago, and at the moment I am only able to play locally. If I try to connect to the cloud server it states that a server is already running on my name. It happened after a crash, so I assume it's the same problem as everyone.

Welcome to the FG forums. This is the known issue mentioned in post #3.

Ugh, I am not able to get into my campaign and am getting the same error that started this thread. It won't connect in Cloud or Local. I restarted my MacBook and then let my computer sit for about 5 hours and still get the error. Any chance a fix or another suggestion for a workaround has been figured out for this? If someone has the ability to clear the private cloud server game listed under daggerfortysix, I'd appreciate it.

I just restarted the lobby server, and killed any game servers running for more than one day (including yours).

We're still trying to figure out the Mac local server issue. As I asked in the other hosting thread, are you familiar enough with Macs to re-order the network card priority? I'd like to see if that makes a difference for local servers.

Thanks,
