Common Issues

    • Solution: Verify server is running and try direct connection method instead
  • Wrong port causing connection failure: Enshrouded uses different game and query ports
    • Solution: Try adding +1 to the port number if initial connection fails

    • Solution: Wait for player slots to open or increase server capacity in settings
