SCP: Secret Laboratory

SCP: Secret Laboratory server not showing up or unable to connect

Check that SCP: Secret Laboratory has reached its normal waiting-for-players state. A running LocalAdmin process is not enough if the game is still loading or reporting a configuration error.

If joining fails

Public server verification is separate from installing the game. Use the correct assigned address when following Northwood’s verification process, and do not assume a new hosted instance is automatically approved for the public list.

  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.
