Multiplayer mod desync
I've recently started a multiplayer colony with a friend and a few mods and it's been going pretty well so far, with desyncs happening quite rarely. However, the desyncs have recently been much more common and i have to rehost every 2-3 minutes. Is there anything i can do about this ? I haven't added or changed any mods, so i'm not sure what's causing this problem.

I guess he WAS referring to the developer and not the mod author...

@OP: That is pretty normal. The stability of a multiplayer games decreases over time, propably from the improvements of the colony(ies) (i.e. rising numbers of pawns, amount of stuff and animals).
That's the reason why you would want to have as few mods used, as possible. To me and my pals, only "a dog said" (because you can heal, operate, etc. your trained animals), "show draftees weapons", "color coded mood bars" and propably "prepare carefully" are the only ones we use when playing multiplayer...
Please take note, that only the first one mod is one who really changes actual gameplay mechanics, while the other ones only change minor ui-elements. That is no coincidence.

You better get used to it, until (and if) the developer brings out official multiplayer.

I think I remember that someone told me, that all the things, that do tings over a long time are cusing theses probelems. If you use dubs bad hygene for example, the burnpits and making fertiliser ay cause desyncs...

Best you can do is remove mod by mod and see if it gets better

I like how you had to mock him by letting us know, you could have just done it quietly but you had to flaunt it huh? >->
