Achievements not working

[Hennuli]

Just a little info first. My achievements works fine, but my friends don't. I host a server for 4 people and those other 3 people don't get the same achievements that I do. Everytime I get a new achievement unlocked they don't get those.

Where is the problem and any advice for me and for my friends that we could do, to get those achievements?

If you have shared the world with them, then you can have whomever doesn't have the achievements unlocked to host instead of you. They should get the achievements as soon as they log in.

But they don't get the same achievements even when they log in to the shared world. :o

Hmmm, well that's not cool. Last patch was supposed to fix this I thought but obviously it didn't.

Do you know off hand which achievements they aren't getting to register?

My son usually hosts for us, we made the world shared and I joined first. I received the two boss achievements immediately (wasp queen and infected), the super duper as soon as duped an item again but couldn't get level 5 cosy no matter what we did.

All the new ones like super duper, infected broodmother, chillax, etc. are not working. But they got old ones like go big and all the other old ones! But then there is that old one "gotta peep them all" that is not working either. So it is very wierd that some work and some don't.

I can confirm as a player that the new achievements from the Super Duper update DO NOT unlock for players but do unlock for the host. I brought our house to 5 Coziness but did not get Chillax but my friend who was the host did. Likewise we just unlocked the Super Duper and I cloned something but did not get the achievement then he tried and did.
During the same game session we killed the Mantis and I got the achievement and then I killed a gnat and got the long distance kill achievement.
From process of elimination the new achievements DO NOT work for players and only work for hosts.

Yes! THIS!! New achievements don't work at all to those who join in a server, but works well to the hosts. I hope there is going to be a fix for that, soon.

They had this problem during the early access for non-hosts but they fixed it. It looks like maybe they messed it up again when adding the new achievements from the update. Hopefully they fix it soon.

Nah they didn't fix a single thing with the achievements, I still miss many "old" achievements that do simply not trigger because I am not the host of the savegame of my friendgroup. It just sucks immensly since the game is advertised as MP game and I will have to do a single player game to get the missing achievments which I frankly can't be arsed to.

Odd, because my husband has never hosted a game and he has all the old achievements up until this last update.

That is indeed very odd since all of my friends got every old achievement in a server that I hosted. I hope they fix those soon!
