Console OPEN <ip:port> on a dedicated server with password?
As the title says, how can you join a dedicated server via OPEN command if the server has password?

If you're on steam... just turn it into a direct join link.

steam://connect/<ip>
Paste in address bar in your web browser

In the web browser?? Can you please elaborate with this? How about the password and the port?

Yes... in your web browser... it will attempt to join the server and should bring up the password dialog box.

Ahh this is the same as Steam Client > View > Server > Add servers?
This one does not work and do not see the dedicated server either.
.
The dedicated server is working fine if I use Epic Ark Client but Steam Ark Client cant see it. However if I use the Open console command, it gives warning that I did not put password which means it can see the server through that command but cannot authenticate because of the lack of password in the command. I would like to know the proper syntax of the command if password is included.
.
I have tried
OPEN <ip>:<port><space><pass>
OPEN <ip>:<port> PASSWORD <pass>
OPEN <ip>:<port> -PASSWORD <pass>
.
Nothing works both on Steam Ark Client and Epic Ark Client.
.
Using the correct IP it returns error "password field is empty"
Using wrong IP it returns session time out
So it means I am able to see the server through the command but cannot pass through password verification.

Wiki says open IP:PORT?PASSWORD should work, but I couldn't do it :/

it dont work because ark is ark, and so poorly made
in launch arguments, put -crossplay and then youll be able to find your server i believe
if you want to connect your server on epic client,your server should not set password.
The console open ip:password is not support password.
