Well I'm not exactly sure if this is a connection issue or not, but I am at a loss, and I cant find info on this.
I have been running a campaign for a group of players for a little over a month now. recently (as in today) I had a player who tried to connect. He was able to get into the game, however he cannot see any information. He open the tabs and all they show nothing they are just blank. I had him try just about everything I could think of including reinstalling the program. However nothing worked. No other player had this issue save for him, and by the end of the night he had just had a bad day and went away frustrated. Has anyone experienced this? are their any solutions?

When he reinstalled, did he delete his FG Data folder? If not, have him delete his player cache (cache folder accessed from the folder icon of the launch screen) and then try connecting to you when he's the only player.

i'm also having problems. one of the players can't connect due to this fatal network engine error. He used to connect before last 07/16. He already deleted the whole folder, and downloaded again...

None of my players are able to connect today. I have an ultimate key and my players have Demo copies. We normally use LAN mode. My route is port forwarded, everyone's windows firewall is confined to let FG through via opening its default ports for TCP and UDP. No one is able to connect, it's as if there is no route when people can in fact ping my machine. Everything worked fine a week ago... Why did you change things? :/

@MeepTheChangeling,
As many people are having networking issues, and the fact that the 7/16 update improved connections for many people, it's expected that we will continue to work on the networking engine to try and stamp out any disconnect issues. I know we are looking at things in another thread as well. Please note that I did not change anything related to LAN networking in the 7/16 build other than incrementing the network version for updated token packets to resolve an endless networking loop related to FoW data on tokens.
@theMaXX,
Can the player connect to any other servers? Does his client show 2020-07-16 in the upper right of the launch screen? Can you get the logs from him, per original post? (Open console in upper left; and press Compile Logs button; then send the ZIP file)
@lostsanityreturned,
@rpgathome,
@someoneinatree,
There was some down time on the networking facilitation service on their Australian servers on Jul 24. Where is the GM located? Are they still having an issue?
@Iron Templar,
I haven't heard of anything like that before.
* Perhaps the player was on an older version? (should be 2020-07-16 or newer)
* Perhaps the player cache got corrupted? (can hit the folder button on launch screen, and delete cache folder before next connection to check if that's the issue)
* Can the player connect to any other GM games without issue?
* Could we get more details, including logs and a screenshot?
@JSCHERTLER,
This is the main network issue I'm tracking down now. There's some sort of hiccup in the networking communication that can occur during play that stops communication, but doesn't trigger the disconnect event. I'm trying to work with the networking library developer to see if the current logs can help pinpoint; or whether more logging is needed to pinpoint.
Regards,
JPG

My PC players are able to connect and stay connected. I worry that I can't help my Mac player stay connected to the point. She will disconnect and I can kick her before she rejoins. But, there are times that I've kicked her, she tries to reconnect, but I can't force her to disconnect again. So she literally has to wait 10-15 minutes before that connection times out before she can reconnect.
Some days, this might happen once in a two hour session; other days like today, it will happen every 20-30 minutes, so she's spending the majority of her playing time reconnecting. Is there a mac support thread that I can be pointed to? Or is this a recurring issue for others?
Thank you in advance,
Tazural

All issues dissolved away
Thought I would just mention my group now playing on Wednesday evenings Uk time. Is having no issues since 2x weeks. My MAC pc player is connecting 1st time and stable. My PC players are stable.
We did have symptoms of desync on maps a few weeks back. But now stable.
If only discord was this stable.
Performance generally is very good.
Unity is really getting there.
One thing we done that made a big difference was to not play Tuesday evenings - to avoid update clashes. It would be nice to be able to choose a build number on launch maybe or auto detect GM buildLast edited by EllivasKram; July 30th, 2020 at 06:47. Reason: Adding detail
