Ever since I installed the update I've only once been able to click into multiplayer with no apparent reason why it worked the one time. It's not save game specific at all as I can click "new game" and then tab over to multiplayer and it gives the same error. To be clear my internet is working, I'm talking on Discord, Amplifiers connects, the game knows I'm online but gives that error anytime multiplayer is engaged. 


Thank you! Love the game, just can't play it with friends at the moment :(

Hello!


In order for us to fully investigate this issue we need the following:

Your diagnostics logs. These are time stamped, and any time you close and relaunch the game, new ones are started. Please grab all diagnostics logs related to the session you were playing where the issue occurred. These are by default located:

o PC: \Users\[username]\Documents\Humankind\Temporary Files

o Mac: This is hidden in the Libraries folder. You will need to do an internet search to find specific steps for your OS. Once the libraries folder is revealed, they are in user/library/ application support/humankind/Temporary Files


- An output log. These can be found here:

o PC: This folder is hidden by default. You will need to reveal hidden folders (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/show-hidden-files-0320fe58-0117-fd59-6851-9b7f9840fdb2 ) then navigate to: Users\[username]\AppData\LocalLow\AMPLITUDE Studios\Humankind

o Mac: This is hidden in the Libraries folder. You will need to do an internet search to find specific steps for your OS. Once the libraries folder is revealed, they are in user/library/logs/amplitude studios/humankind


Truly sorry for the inconvenience! Currently a workaround may have been found by other community members which is to click multiple times on the "Refresh" button. Could you tell us if it helps avoiding the issue, event temporarily?

Thanks you for talking the time to send us your bug report!

I appear to be having this issue, here are the attached files asked for from a steam post on the same topic.

 Player.log

Temporary Files.zip

I had to zip the diagnostic files as the file upload would not let me put them up individually, sorry for any inconvenience

The Steam app updated this afternoon and now I can click on multiplayer without the error! Haven't loaded an actual multiplayer game with another player yet however. I restarted the game several times and there is no error now so hopefully it's resolved somehow via the Steam update. I'd be curious if the same is true for Vulfy?

Someone just posted on the developer stream stating that they have the same error a couple minutes ago so perhaps it's not fixed


UPDATE: it is not fixed it is just intermittent, worked twice didn't work twice. I'll post my logs as requested here in a moment.

Just realized this message was at the bottom of your comment, I'm not aware of a "refresh" button anywhere in the game menus? I can't find one in multiplayer or setting screens anyway, please advise! EDIT: found it, next time the bug occurs I'll try it

I can confirm that when the error occurs that you can go to new game -> multiplayer -> refresh until games populate. After that you can do whatever it seems.
