p0rps Posted January 28, 2025 Report Posted January 28, 2025 I've been having an issue since updating my server to 1.20.3 where i have to do /serverconfig advertise true for anyone to see it on the list of public servers, and it only stays advertised for 10-15 minutes before it's off the list again. In serverconfig.json, "AdvertiseServer": true, is there, as it has been since I started this server on 1.19.8. I'm wondering if anyone else has had this happen or if I'm missing something. Obviously there are plenty of servers listed which this is not happening to. The server is password protected but that shouldn't make a difference here. Something else, which may or may not be related - I'm noticing that my server, when on the public list, is showing 0/20 players, even though I can confirm there are at least two players currently connected. Apparently that also makes it so it won't show up here: https://servers.vintagestory.at/
Solution p0rps Posted January 28, 2025 Author Solution Report Posted January 28, 2025 I've just realized this could have been happening because I set "VerifyPlayerAuth": false, in serverconfig.json when authentication servers were down a few days ago. I ended up deleting the serverconfig.json I had so the game would generate a new one, and went through the new copy while comparing it to the old one, and that was one difference. To summarize... Turning off authentication will prevent the server from showing on the list of public servers persistently, as well as the non-empty public servers list here https://servers.vintagestory.at/ Makes sense.
