Multiplayer Character sometimes won't load
I am a host and sometimes the server wants me to create another character. After many trying, if I am lucky, I can play with my character. The save is not corrupted. This is the maybe 10th server. Just as server wanted, when I created another character, I can not see anything but black screen, and the game freezes.

I tried to reset my internet. Even turn on/off VPN. I restarted my computer and steam. They did not help me at all. What might be the real problem?

If you have any mods that add traits then they can sometimes cause issues with character loading.

Yes I have 3 different trait mods, If I do not remember correctly, they are called
More traits
Simple more traits
More Vanilla Traits

I'm getting the same thing, I have a lot of mods so it's probably one of them, I only have the Snake Mod Packs for the Traits I think, but yeah, it always happens to me once or twice when I start the server. Also the first time i do it is ALWAYS, "cant connect P2P server" or something like that.

I guess randomly I can reach my main character, for instance today my sixth attempt worked. Now I deleted 2/3 trait mods and I'm using only "More Traits". Still same. I do not know whether I should delete all the trait mods, or not.
