0 handofthesly 211 Posted February 8, 2018 Yup, i get that multiple times in a session. Many other people are also experiences the same problem across different servers. This is what the devs have to say about it: On 1/27/2018 at 5:07 AM, Aleš Ulm said: Also, we have concluded our analysis of "Host unreachable", one of the high-profile critical issues. Even though there can be many causes behind this that we don't have control over, we indeed found a situation where players can get this message and be unable to connect to an MP game. Good news is that it is something that is fixable, but it may take some time. What is going to happen now is this: in 0.7, if this situation happens, you will see a specific error message. If you see it, you'll know that we're to blame and that it's something that you would be getting no matter what port you have opened etc. It's quite obvious, though, that you're more interested in getting a fix than just an indication. We have already started working on it and chances are that in 0.7 you'll find yourself in this situation less often. The complete fix will be released as soon as possible and we'll keep you posted on the progress. This is a very high priority for us. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

0 kimbuck 746 Posted February 9, 2018 Hope to get discord working as soon as we can find out where the springs, cogwheels and nuts go in the computer / monitor I prefer not to use voice as we have a 3 ring circus performing in my house and add to it the always loud TV ( to drown out the neighbors heavy metal on his stereo..) plus the other neighbors 3 dogs that think they can sing to "Lead Zeppelin" ... you cannot hear yourself think here ...let alone communicate via signal flags...

That's ok, I don't use voice chat either, discord is also a text based chat app too. It's just a good way of communicating with the server host if something happens or organising events with other members without the rest of the world seeing here on the forums Edited February 9, 2018 by handofthesly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 kimbuck 746 Posted February 9, 2018 (edited) Still trying to set it up ..its a bit hard when you got an elderly relative who thinks every time you are talking "to your self" ( onthe phone or using a mic) that you are on the 'phone to a relative and she shouts out maternal instructions incessantly, such as " Tell aunt Doris we will send her a card next birthday next month ... ( aunt Doris passed away 8 years ago... ). Technology is way beyond her but she insists she has to give advise direct from "Thomas Edisons' instruction book of telephonic courtesy" Now you see why i like Ylands .. it's a great escape Edited February 9, 2018 by kimbuck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Energritz_ 107 Posted February 9, 2018 You don't have to talk or anything like that, you can just type stuff in the chat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
