    Thanks for the fix, Piddlefoot! Are the corrections also in the original download link? I just need to copy over to my multiplayer server's scenario folder via FTP.

    totally agree about this being an awesome scenario!

    Thanks!

    Thanks for the quick reply and again for the fix!

    I subscribed and do not see it in the scenario folder on my HDD. Which is where I was going to just drag the correction to my multiplayer server. How do I get the corrected files for upload to my public multiplayer server which is at a different IP address.

    Thanks!

    Ok, maybe i am not getting how the Scenario thing works for Dedicated Servers. Initially, you had a direct link to a zip file and all was good. but since the update, i have subscribed to the MP scenario in the workshop based on the link in the first post.

    First observation, it does not download the scenario into the Scenarios folder of my client (i was hoping to just grab it and ftp it to the server)

    Second observation, it downloaded the sector file and the playfield files into the new game i started based on the scenario into the saves folder

    Third observation, it doesnt do it instantly...i stayed in the game long enough to crash my pod and it had gotten about half the playfields. I had to go back into the game and load the save and sit for a bit for it to grab the rest of the playfields.

    Fourth observation, it doesnt seem to download the prefab folder items at all...maybe the client is fetching them in real time? but how is that gonna work in a DS environment.

    Any thoughts? has anyone successfully gotten a scenario directly from the workshop to download completely and be playable on a DS?

    Hey Mate

    I am having issues getting actually the dedicated server running with the Scenario..I can connect to my Server but it keeps loading and loading and nothing happens with the emp admin helper tool.

    For the Workshop Scenario File, it is located here:

    Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\383120\945796566

    Since in your Scenario Folder from your Dedicated Folder Structure you have no Folder for it, you may need to create one and paste the content of "945796566" inside it. Open up the dedicated.yaml file and adjust the Settings to your needs. Then I am not sure if I need to copy the dedicated yaml file over to the root folder of the Empyrion Dedicated Server Folder Structure or not.

    Server runs but I can't connect. You may have better luck then I do :)

    Ok I got it working now.

    The Content of "945796566" needs to be copied into a newly created Folder named exactly as this: The Lost City Of Sol-Exploration. Make a copy of your original dedicated.yaml file and alter the dedicated.yaml file to your liking which resides inside the "The Lost City Of Sol-Exploration" Folder Structure. Once the changes are done, copy it over to the root folder and overwrite the original dedicated.yaml file. Launch your Server and Enjoy :)

    Do what he says, here is what I do to not to have my dedicated.yaml file overwritten every update. I make a new dedicated.yaml named anything u like ex 2yysforu.yaml and launch my server via bat file like this
    Code:
    @echo off
    EmpyrionLauncher -startDedi -dedicated 2yysforu.yaml
    echo.
    echo Dedicated server was started as background process
    echo Enable Telnet (default port 30004) via dedicated.yaml and connect to it locally
    echo for configuration of the server (type 'help' for console commands)
    pause

    i would like to put it on an online server provider by Nitrado, and i really dont know how to do that with the scenario.
    i apologyse for the quality of my english...
    i already drop files on it like, new planets but it doesn't seem similar to me.
    in fact i dont know how to find the scenerio files (look likes "The Content of "945796566" may be), and drop into the nitro sserv and changing the dedicated file ?
    sorry i m not really used to that, thx for time spending in explaination .

    UPDATED FOLDER

    Create Folder named exactly as this: The Lost City Of Sol-Exploration, in your server Scenario folder. Then get all the files from Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\383120\947185338. then put in in your server folder Scenario The Lost City Of Sol-Exploration

    then u need to set up your dedicated file. ex
    Code:
    # Dedicated server settings
    # To use your own dedicated.yaml (e.g., "MyDedicatedConfig.yaml"), add "-dedicated MyDedicatedConfig.yaml" to the corresponding batch file
    
    ServerConfig:

    echo.
    echo Dedicated server was started as background process
    echo Enable Telnet (default port 30004) via dedicated.yaml and connect to it locally
    echo for configuration of the server (type 'help' for console commands)
    pause
    Hope that helps, hit me up if u need more help

    if you see something "broken" inside that file dedicated, plz let me know here or on steam.
