-Have you ever been able to connect to your friends server?

-Does your friend live in a seperate country from you?

-Have you ever been able to connect to any server?

-How long do you allow it to say "connecting" while it tries to join a server?

No, I could never connect to any servers from the list, my friend lives in Ukraine, when I'm in Russia. When connected to the servers I waited sometimes for more than 10 mines, updated and waited again, no reactions

-If other people in your household are using the internet, you might need to do all of those to prevent lag.

-Don't have any programs running in the background or any windows/tabs open in the background.

-If you're joining a server, always look for the ones with the lowest ping (you can view ping on the right hand side of the server name while searching for one).

-The more people you have in a server, the more PC power required.

-If the people joinging your server are from other countries, this also lends a hand in the lag/rubberbanding/glitching/inability to connect.

-If your computer meets the minimum specs, and can handle it all easily on your end when hosting your own world: then the lag is most likely due to high latency (congestion/bandwidth/distance/connection type/distance from other players/etc).

Try:
-a smaller world size.
-a world without extra/creatures resources added in settings.
-a world without mods (or as few as possible).
-a world without caves.

*Caves require 2 seperate servers running at the same time, and takes alot from any PC.

*If even a single mod is messed up/out of date/etc, it can wreak havoc on an entire world, it happens all the time sadly.

The are was no problems with creating server( is think) just connecting

Everything above can cause connection issues (whether hosting or joining).

with the Internet there are no problems

Joining/hosting a world is completely different, and takes waaaay more than accessing the internet.

Try launching the game, selecting "browse games", and try joining the world that shows the LOWEST ping (the number on the right hand side of the server name). See if that works and let us know.

I was (30 ping)
drinkmetogrow Mar 1, 2018 @ 10:42am 
So you were able to join the world with no problems?
iFreet Mar 1, 2018 @ 10:44am 
Problems remained

What are your computers specs?
drinkmetogrow Mar 1, 2018 @ 10:47am 
Copy the client_log.txt from Documents\Klei\DoNotStarveTogether folder and paste it here so we can try and figure out what the problem might be.
iFreet Mar 1, 2018 @ 10:53am 
what I need to do? just copy all text into file?
drinkmetogrow Mar 1, 2018 @ 10:54am 
Just highlight and"copy" all of that information and "paste" it here.
