Experiencing huge lag via Steam Connection

[Nevarth]

Does anyone is suffering because massive lags via Steam Connection?
i've tried to play with a friend by steam invite and i'm experiencing huge delays while playing, like 5secs to open a door, it's a Starbound problema or our connection problem? Sorry my bad english in advance.

I'm also experiencing this, but only with a certain friend who lives in another state. Another friend who lives close to me are able to play with me with no lag. Haven't tested with anyone else besides those two yet, though.

Well, it's seems i'm not the only one experiencing this, i hope they can fix it soon, :(

Same here. Having huge lag upwards of 3 seconds playing with friends in another country via steam. Hopefully they are on this as I'm assuming a lot of people would want to play co-op directly through steam.

I'm also having lag problems. 3-4 second delays to action anything in the game. I bought this for the co op mainly so a bit disappointed especially considering it is a 2D game. Hope they resolve this as it should be working on a fully released game.

Follow up - Being a 2D game may not have much relevance to this but the networking should be working properly.

Yeah, the multiplayer of Starbound is the best part for me, i wanna avoid the problems of creating dedicated servers to only play with two or three friends.

Agreed. This lag is a pain, i don't care if the game lags for 0.5sec or 1sec sometimes, but 5sec for every action you do is unplayable, i hope the dev team fix it soon

Im from Sweden and are playing with friends in the same country, one of them 2 km from me... The lag is huge! Even when it's only me on the dedicated server.

Have anyone found a solution?

Or could we please hear from a Dev? A little light at the end of the tunnel would be nice. Talk to us, we wont bite... much! :)

this game is cpu/memory intensive, if your hosting the game server and playing at the same time this is why you will be lagging so much. better to use a standalone server or have a powerful gaming machine.

Even if you are playing directly via Steam Connection option?
My friend have a pc gamer, he hosted the server and the lag persists...

Its a latency issue.
Or a NAT issue.

Google that to solve it

The same problem here... Dev need to communicate about this...
