How does coop work

[NotYourBuddy]

Do you share money/purchases? Is progress shared between host and players? Is the coop stable?

[Rocky McRockerson]

You share bank account but not money on your person, your inventory should save from what I've experienced but I'm not sure if saves carry to the clients.

There also seems to be an issue with blackjack/ride the buss in co-op where the client can crash and lose their winnings though

progress is shared within the save file.
money which is on the bank account is shared, the money which you hold on yourself not.
the netcode of this game is aswell very generous latency wise, i am playing with a friend from australia and i live a in germany ... so~ thats a huge distance and i do not lag... except i try to pick npc´s which lay on the ground up XD. with other words, yes it is stable i didnt had any DC in the 20hours where we played.

co-op should get started after the prologue, many peoples do this mistake and start it in the prologue with peoples.

aaaand it seems there are sometimes bugs with quests? tho, i dont know what peoples do. with me and the friend which i play bugged no quest so far out ... maybe we are lucky? but then again ... its an early access game ... so, expect to run into this but hope that it does not happen too early XD.

Is there a way to switch hosts??? My friend who is currently hosting the world that we play on is not enjoying the game anymore. Is there a way for me to takeover the "hosting"???

thats weird tho. i didnt crashed even once with this.
its in general weird overall. everything which peoples so far wrote did i not encounter.
like
-workers not doing their thing (except they slack off)
-quests not appearing
-npc´s disappearing
-quest appears but doesnt wants to complete.
-items vanashing when bought too much in a store (aka your inventory being full)
and some more which i dont remember exactly now.

we played so far nearly 20 hours ... and we had 0 problems.
i have no idea what you guys do with the game.
tho, just because we dont have it doesnt means the bugs dont exist though.

and yet, its very strange that there are peoples which have 0 issues and others run into problems. do you guys finish things too quick? like for example. when a quest which should appear is already done goes it automaticly to call the guy on the payphone.

i assume it would? be possible. but it would have aswell its drawbacks.
like, you wont have your own avatar and would take over the one from the save file.
all you can do is asking your friend to give you the save file via discord or other ways and putt it into the folder where you have your saves for the game.

if it works ... works it. if not theeeeeeeeeeeeeeen not.

I think the casino thing only happens when there's a mix of someone joining/leaving the table and someone betting? I'd have to test to be sure but it's happened to me twice and I'm pretty sure that's what happened when my friend crashed both times
