How does Grounded work with shared worlds?

[British Bloke]

Looking for people to play Grounded with, however what confuses me is that a shared world can only be playable when a 'host' creates a lobby, and when mid-game nobody can join, they have to recreate the lobby for someone new to join.

Is there not a way round at all, or has anyone figured out a way passed to make it seem less confusing or am I just looking at it wrongly?

Currently looking for people to play with, feel free to add me.

To clear up confusion:

-You can join in progress lobbies, I join my wife this way all the time.
The new player will just be given the Teen selection screen- if all players are currently filled, they will be unable to join.

-Anyone can host the Lobby- like if Player 1 hosts and then gets off, saving and closing the lobby. Player 2 can re-launch the lobby under their computer and people will be able to join once again.
(Please keep in mind this new feature is buggy, and sometimes does not provide players 2, 3, and 4 with a proper save file upon Player 1 exit, so make sure you save manually to ensure it works properly)

So you should be good to start an online lobby- but keep in mind that Esc will not pause the game- you'll need everyone to be prepared to enter Picture Mode with "P".
Picture mode will be unavailable if any player is inside their menu, otherwise, will act as a pause.
