Problem joinging friend's server
I'm having an issue joining my friends server, it doesn't appear in the friends tab in (join game) I tried reseting all settings in the advanced tab but nothing works.
Every time I want to join I have to use shift-tab to open steam overlay, join through friends by pressing the join game button 2 or 3 times, server then loads to 98% and shows the message of the day and freezers. I then have to alt-tab to steam to close the game and launch it again. Then I have to re-do the previous steps but this time I get loaded into spectator with the game paused, at this point I have to press F5 to rejoin to finally be able to join that server.
Our other friend from a different country doesn't have any proble joining the server but me being in the same country as the host does.
This is starting to get really frustrating and I tried every fix I could find but nothing is working and I have no idea what could be the problem.
(I have no VPNs active such as Radmin, hamachi, etc.)
I'd really appreciate it if someone know what's going on and how to fix it.
I have the same bug
Hello Engineer,
Thank you for reaching out to us on the forum.
The issue appears to be related to joining games via the Steam Overlay. We are aware of this and already have an internal ticket open, which you can follow here:
https://support.keenswh.com/spaceengineers/pc/topic/48996
To resolve this, please try the following workarounds that may help:
Once done, the host’s game should appear in the Join Game > Friends screen for all clients. Please check if you can then successfully join this way.
If the issue still occurs, please send us the latest log files from both the host and client at the time the issue occurs so we can investigate further.
Kind regards,
Keen Software House: QA Department

I'm not sure if these are what you need.
We'll try making a dedicated server to see if I can join that, the previous one was peer to peer

Hello Engineer,
Just to confirm, are these logs from after you and the host already tried the workarounds we suggested above, or from before?
If the logs are from before trying the workarounds, please try them and let us know if they help.
If the logs are from after the workarounds, we noticed that the host’s world has active MODs, and some incompatible MODs could be contributing to the issue.
To confirm, please try hosting a fresh unmodded/vanilla world/lobby and check if the behavior changes. If the issue still persists, please send us the log files from both the host and the client from the time the unmodded session was running.
Kind regards,
