i raised 2 tickets via mail, with all the logs attached to it - just an automated reply i raised the topic here in this forum, no reaction, not even a "go to hell reply". seriously? i have a dedicated server running, as long as my power as server admin is not required, the game works up to 50% fine, in the moment i am asked to help out in some what ever case and i even activate the map view feature, of the admin permissions - BAM i got disconnected. i get disconnect as a result of every admin permission i activate, does not matter, if i am in space, on the surface, just standing around or typing into the chat. These are the other 50% of the game. the first 50% currently are covered by unknown disconnects - an unknown error occured - oh i love this messages, same goes for all the people who tell me that they have this message. it does not matter what they are doing either, if it is building, looking on the map, flying around or being idle somewhere without anything else near them. When i look into the logs, well funny to read this message - 04-19:05:38.324 21_05 -WRN- CONNECTION TO DEDICATED SERVER LOST - WTF. you want to know that i did before that happened. i was in an asteroid field- my ship near a another players ship and i asked him, what he was farming. end of story. disconnects, disconnects, disconnects. my entire weekend was ruined because of this annoying disconnects. -reinstalling - hey, i am getting tired of this suggestion -check files - creates a lot of fun, everytime before starting playing, to have to check if something is broken again Since the last patching cycle began, a lot of exceptions started popping up in the log files as well, here just a small selection of them - 2549 04-19:11:32.147 21_11 -EXC- System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Index was out of range.

What is the name used that sent a email so I can look for it ? Did you attach all of the logs from the B2549 folder from the servers logs folder ?
sent you the email via conversation and also the link to the entire zip file 2549. even today, better few minutes ago, i connected, due to player request, wrote into chat - bam disconnect, i did not even do anything else, but writing into the chat.
well i have to admit, the idea, that the steam application itself is broken, came never to my thoughts. every other online steam game worked perfectly, only empyrion was affected by it. also the fact that the use of empyrion admin commands accelerated the disconnects was/is a little bit confusing till now. i reinstalled steam, reinstalled empyrion and well what do you know, the game is now running smoothly, without any disconnects so far. thanks for the tipp in our private conversation, to check the steam app installation itself, sadly there is no function for checking the steam app itself, only games. so it cannot be helped, the reason will stay a secret.
@Guardian44 thanks for confirming it appears something may have gone wrong with steam authentication & a reinstalltion has worked for others. I don't know why it happens but other games can get this issue also.
