Multiplayer server question.

Daniel Lopez shared this bug 20 months ago
Won't Fix

How do I set setting to allow other players to join my game progression when I am offline.


Ex: when I play my friends are able to join but when I leave it kicks everyone off of my game? Why and is it possible to change this?

Hello, Daniel,

thank you for contacting us.

Can you please share me more information?

What type of the MP game are you playing? In Lobby mode, or on Dedicated server?

If in Lobby mode, there is no option for others to stay online on Lobby world that you started. Because you are technically running the server by sharing the world and all its settings etc directly from your PC.

Once you turn the game off (go offline), you actually stop that server and it is no longer running. Thus other players can not join there or stay playing.

If you want to have a server that will be running even after you leave the game, please use Dedicated server instead. You can find "how to" here:

This server from its own app can run even after the admin is no longer online.

Let me know if this helps you, please.

Kind Regards

Hello, Engineer!

Because there is no new comment from you, and we are unable to reproduce the issue on our own, I will close this thread now as outdated.

If you or any other player will experience this issue again, please make a new thread and provide all needed info there.

Thank you for understanding.

Kind Regards
