    Hi, I just got starbound, and I have no idea how to play it with a friend. Can anyone explain it to me? Thanks!


    Kindest regards,

    Uhm the tutorial tag is the wrong one for this topic. It also seems to be the wrong section. ^^'

    Well uhm... >v< To play with a friend you have these options:
    - Play via steam multiplayer (requires both of you playing starbound via steam and is the easiest way)
    - Join via ip which requires port forwarding setup in your or your friends router depending on who is the host
    - One of you set up a dedicated server and you join on this which also requires port forwarding setup in your or your friends router depending on who is hosting the server
    - You play on one of the already present servers

    Here is a pretty cool tutorial by @Hel http://community.playstarbound.com/...r-setup-for-multiplayer-without-steam.119089/ how to setup a server :)
