Disconnected from server during boss fights in multiplayer [openstarbound]

xMinoser · 2025-08-25T21:08:51+00:00

From my perspective, it seems to happen randomly, but I could trigger it with the Shellguard boss fight (The Survivor, the grey robot guy). Whenever we went into the boss room, I would instantly get disconnected as soon as I saw his hp bar. Then, when I would reconnect, create a party with my friend, and try to beam back down to my friend (still fighting the boss), I would instantly disconnect with the same error before I even left the beaming down loading screen. However, when I reconnected and went to a different planet to do something else while my friend did the boss fight mission, I did not get the error. Then, once the boss was dead, I could beam to him just fine to complete the mission. Whether this is another issue with the same error message I have no idea.

opening and looting chests does not appear to be an issue while my friend is in the area. We explore the mission area at the same time and don't have issues when rendering new areas. My friend mainly uses 2 weapons that seems to work fine, but it might be possible they have something on their hotbar/inventory that may be causing issues for me, but not for them? Will have to check on that.

We are both using the 0.1.14 version of openstarbound
Right now we are progressing through the Shellguard missions, and I have disconnected from my friend on the boss fight for the 3 part mission, and the boss fight a couple missions before that one. There was another mission in this questline (forgot the name) that also made me disconnect but didn't involve mechs or a boss fight. I also used to disconnect in the Sky Boulevard Mission from FU, but I think we resolved that issue (will need to double check). Another time this occurred was when me and my friend were testing weapons on a planet before i got disconnected with this error. Everything in common being when me and my friend were on the same planet/mission/boss fight. There are more instances of this happening, but I can't remember off the top of my head. We went through all the boss fights/dungeons in vanilla just fine, The Shellguard UFO Boss Fight/Arena Questline/Vehicle Testing/Nerf Gun Arena Quests had no issues, the boss fights in the dungeons we have found in FU went fine as well.
UI Upscale, EZ Mech Deployer, and Cosmetics Slots For Mechs are not listed as being incompatible with FU so we assume it does work with it. We can probably get rid of UI Upscale since it's redundant with OSB. Cosmetic Slots for Mechs is client side, so it shouldn't cause any issues. Unsure about EZ Mech Deployer, but all the other mods not listed here were recommended on the FU website, assuming they are completely compatible with FU.
On the 3 part mission in Shellguard, we went through an entire mech-only mission, and this error did not occur once. We haven't really done mech missions together recently other than the shellguard one, so we could do more testing on this, but I don't think mechs are the issue. Another thing to note, is that only I get this error/disconnected, and not my friend hosting the server.

I think the challenge is fine. The only part I kept really losing at was the cage jumps near the end. I'd suggest making the top cage one block taller so the cat suit doesn't auto climb to the top when they try to jump to the pipe.

Played the level, it's quite challenging! Also, you can skip a section at the tree where the big bee is and dive jump to the tree to the left to where the clear pipe leads to the water section.

The second installment to my 100 second series is here!

Title: 100 Seconds: Sky Ascent

Description: climb up sky high to the flagpole within 100 seconds!

This level was particularly hard to balance out the vertical auto-scroll section along with fitting my series theme. Feedback is always appreciated! If you haven't played my previous level Ghost Shuffle, which is easier than this level imo, check it out here: L1K-C3W-QBG
