Closed Friend cannot interact with anything on multiplayer and then gets disconnected

He can't access chests or send a party invite, but he can see other peoples chats. After a minute he gets disconnected. We tried to get him to host the server, but whenever I connect I get a black screen like shown in the thread here: http://community.playstarbound.com/...issue-failed-to-read-full-buffer-error.89251/

Any ideas? We even tried connecting to a public server and he still can't interact with anything. He can on a new character, but we've tried that several times and eventually his character always breaks and the issue repeats itself.

 

It'd be really REALLY helpful if we could get one copy of your starbound.log and - more importantly - one of his starbound.log.
They can be found in the "giraffe_storage" folder.

It's only giving one specific error I can give you hurtful advice on, so follow this list in order to get it working (still check if it works after every step):

• First, Uuid mismatch can be caused by a corrupted or renamed playerfile, this might have a bad effect in multiplayer. To get rid of it the only way is basically deleting the linked playerfiles.

Other advice if that didn't solve the problem:

• Delete the whole player folder
• Delete player AND universe folder
• (In case it's core-corruption) Delete your "/assets/packed.pak" file and re-validate the game cache via steam
• (In case everything doesn't help) Delete your "/steamapps/common/starbound" folder and reinstall the game.*

*Don't just deinstall starbound. Delete the game folder. Deinstalling will leave you with the trouble-making file-remnants.

If nothing above works and the error still persists you're better off telling your friend to throw his PC right outta the window.
Watch out for people tho, hitting them with PCs is illegal.
Alternatively you can just repost here so we can figure out another way.

 

He tried all of these to no avail. I don't think the log tells much about the problem, the error you're referring to was probably something that occurred when he was copying over characters trying to find a solution.

 

Since none of that worked (the last step should solve everything game-related) I assume it's a network error.
I'll report the thread for moving, I don't really have much clue about networking issues, so the multiplayer forum might really help you more.
Plus, doesn't seem to be a core-game issue anymore.
Sorry for not being helpful.

 

Not that it's not multiplayer related, and as such, possibly suited for the "networking category", but I'd say unplayable multiplayer is a core game issue.

 

Well, as that, sure it is.
It's just that more players fond of multiplayer issues / fixes read the multiplayer section then the In-game & Billing Support section, that's why it's better kept there.

 

I seem to be having this issue as well. It started up yesterday on a character that I'd just finally worked through the first boss fight. Following what Blitz has said in this thread I created a new character today and found that I can connect normally using that new character, so the problem seems to be character linked. I haven't done any fiddling with character files lately so this log may be useful:

I believe this is related to an issue I've encountered in the distant past and was never able to find a solution for. Whenever I would connect to a server I would have a period lasting up to about a minute in which I could move around my ship but not interact with anything on board. Eventually the game would "catch up" and everything I'd attempted to use would open a menu or otherwise respond in sequence over a period of a couple of seconds. This seems like the same issue, but with an auto-kicker booting me out before I can fully connect.

I still have old character and game files lying around from a previous install so it can't be said that I have a clean install right now, but this all suggests to me that there's a way in which individual characters are getting corrupted or rendered unusable in multiplayer.

 

Updates on the problem:

After the previous post I uninstalled Starbound completely, deleted the remaining files in the steam and appdata folders and re-installed, then made a new character. The issue has just appeared on that new character and I'm no longer able to access multiplayer with that character as a result. Here's the most recent .log and some interesting trivia from troubleshooting attempts.

Trivia:
When the original bugged character file was moved to a friend's computer he was able to play the character in multiplayer without any issues.
A separate character created at the same time as the new bugged one can still connect to multiplayer without issues.

Since this thread doesn't seem to have been moved to the Multiplayer sub-forum as planned, I may start a new thread there to seek help.

 

When I look at this I think that it might be caused by a bad/weak network connection. Back when my internet was having trouble these exact things happened to me. Once I fixed my router, though, everything worked fine again. I'd speculate that this is the case, especially since @Talek 's error log doesn't show any errors.

 

My thought as well. Sounds like a network issue.

 

Mirror thread in the multiplayer section is leaning in that direction as well. My download speed is workable, but upload is about .5-.6 mbits/s because AT&T thinks that's reasonable, apparently. If I'm guessing correctly about how the game works, it could be that the connection is getting overloaded while trying to transfer all the character data to the server?

I'd be interested in knowing what sort of speeds your friend gets off of www.speedtest.net Blitz.

 

The thread.

 

Because end users typically consume more than they upload, so connections are asynchronous in favor of higher download speeds and slower upload speeds. This also helps prevent people from running home based servers. ISPs typically don't like that.

My work, on the other hand has 10Mb download and 30Mb upload. Id love to run my server from there, but I like my job too much.
