Can a friend with Fo 1st join my Private world when im offline?
I know you can invite friends without 1st to your world but if you leave they get kicked in 20ish minutes. However if they would have 1st to can they stay in the server when im offline or does it stay the same?

no, when you're offline, your world goes offline

No. What they can do is IF you are teamed up they can stay on your Private server after you drop out. But, you must be on a private team not public.

Did things change, before when you were on a private server and the "owner" logged off you had a certain amount of time to leave then the world shut down. I forget how long it was think around 10 minutes.

HMM? Not sure if there's a time limit when both players are Fallout 1st. I've stayed on a friends Private world for maybe 20 minutes before and not gotten kicked as long as we were teamed.

Private worlds shut down 20 minutes after the last 1st subscriber logs out.

Yeah, that's what I thought. The visitor can stay as long as they are a FO1st member too.

So if both me and my friend have 1st and im the host and logout he can continue building the camp etc? Also can he just go into my world when im offline thats not possible right?

He can't go into your world when you're offline.

Whether it's a public or private world, I can't build in a private team member's Camp when they are not in their Camp. I keep getting kicked from the build menu. For me, it only works when they are with me in their Camp.

Also, be aware that when you have built/placed anything in your Camp your friend Can't delete/scrap those items.

Maybe we need to go back over some terms

A). Adventure: Regular mode.

B). Private Adventure: Just like Adventure but requires a first person to spin up and be present. It is identical to Adventure and stuff goes back and forth between them. While you have a Private Adventure world when you are in it, there are no custom settings and when you go away the world ceases to exist and has no permanence. A first player must be logged into it to keep it spun up. When the last first person logs out, the world shuts down. an additional difficulty is that entrance to the Private Adventure world is tied to the friends list of person who created it. This means, you start the world, I am your friend I can join. I have first so when you log out. I can stay in the world. But, nobody else can join, even if they are on my friends list.

C). Public: Bethesda owned worlds that have modified settings for difficulty etc. Public worlds require you to import a character from Adventure and whatever happens in a Public world stays there. Also, that world will be swapped out frequently and you will lose everything.

D). Custom: Custom worlds are defined by a 1st member to have specific difficulty settings. Anyone who is a friend of the 1st member can join up to 8 people. You import an Adventure character and nothing gained in the Custom world goes back to public. If you are not a 1st member you can only join when the 1st member is in the custom world. However, if you have 1st, you can spin up that custom world if they are not in. (I have tried this with a friend.)

And because that wall of text wasn’t enough. You can only build in someone else’s camp if you are on a private team, and they are on the world. When they log off, their camp goes away.

LOL, oh yeah. You can't build in a player's Camp if it's not there.
