Barotrauma

Barotrauma server not showing up or unable to connect

Match the Barotrauma client version and enabled content packages, then search the public browser or connect using the assigned game address. The deployed template uses serversettings.xml rather than a panel field for the server’s identity and gameplay settings.

If joining fails

If players can see the submarine lobby but are rejected while joining, compare enabled mods and their order. If the process starts but the address does not respond, have support check serversettings.xml against the assigned game and query ports.

  1. Open Console and wait for the game or world to finish loading. Save the first error if startup stops.
  2. Use the joining method above with one client on the matching game version and required content.
  3. If entry is rejected, compare the exact error with the password, edition, map or authentication checks above. Keep the working save while testing.
