Hello Crate,
Firstly, congratulations for this amazing game
My friend have a big problem on his game (and can’t make an account on the website) so I just transmit everything :
Hello Crate, your game is awesome, and I’m French, so, sorry if something isn’t correctly clear because of a bad translation.
It ressembles to the issue reported here :
https://forums.crateentertainment.com/t/internet-has-lock-icon-for-friend/127608/16
But the subject is closed, and I don’t found what investigating the issue has reveal today
Basically :
- I can’t host or join any multiplayer game online, the internet has a lock icon
- If I try to join, my game « crashes », black screen, and I need to force shut down the game/restart the computer (probably because it’s in LAN and not configured)
- I am on Linux, on Ubuntu 22, and I use the Steam version, with Proton 7.0-6 (the other ones doesn’t work or less efficiently)
- I technicaly had the similar problem before 1.2 ; but I resolved it with going to the previous Beta. But now, the only accessible Beta for me is the 1.1.9.8 where the same occurs.
So I’m stuck between 2 version of the game where I can only play offline.
Of course, I read this dedicated post for commun issues :
And I tried to resolve it with. But… when I go to the options, UPnP is allowed and say it’s totally fine !
But when I was trying to configure and resolve as detailed in the post, I discovered a variation in the connection : in the option menu, if I check the network status several times, sometimes (but clearly a minority of times) it says it’s not the correct IP. But, if I redo it… it quickly says everything is okay !
When I was looking my router IP, computer IP and other informations to try to enable the UPnP (before realising it was ok, according to the game menu), I found my computer IP seems to change « order » depending on how I try to identify it (sometimes it’s something 192.168.1.XXX ; and by another way, it’s XXX.192.168.1 ; or 192.168.XXX.1)
I could think that may be a symptom of the issue… but this « variating IP » doesn’t make troubles for other online games I play. And if the IP is just about allowing the UPnP… the UPnP indicate it’s all fine. So I’m not sure if it’s really the issue ?
I don’t know if it’s related, but on Steam, it looks like I downloaded the 1.2 version, and in game, I have access to the dash action + the potions act like spells with cooldown ; so basically I think I run the game in 1.2
But at the launching of the game, under the Crate logo, I see that I am on 1.1.9.4. And after, on the main menu, in the bottom right I see 1.2.0.3 ; so I think it’s just a display issue, but not something important
After trying other Proton versions, uninstall and reinstall the game, and of course what I detailed above… I’m out of solution 
So, is there any news about this problem ? Is there already something know to resolve it, or in the opposite, still a known issue not clearly diagnosed, but maybe for a future update ?
Thanks a lot
