Importing Local Host Player to Dedicated Server

Hey guys, maybe someone can help. My friends and me have a Game hosted by me where played quite a while. Now we wanted to try some mods and it's not working properly. Due to that one possible solution might be a dedicated server. The Server runs fine by now and I managed to put on our savegame. But I was not able to add my character to it. This is what I tried several times: 1. Joining the Server with a new Character. 2. Replacing the new Player...-Files in the SaveData.zip with those from the Savegame. 3. Make new Zip and join again....

Dedicated server not showing up on LAN

Was following a guide, (https://hub.tcno.co/games/sotf/server/), and have tried joining my server from sotf but it doesn't show up, I have also tried direct joining. Important things to note are, I am running the server on another computer, it is a Windows VM on mac (VMWare), but I am using the IPs and stuff from inside windows, and the network adapter setting is set to "Wi-Fi" (it gives it its own ip) I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if the guide I'm following is outdated, can anyone help? update: we discovered that putting all of our computers on ethernet solves the problem, it doesn't seem to transfer over our network for some reason(?) we don't know why. leaving this here in case anyone has a similar problem...

How can I remove NPC (Timmy) from my save?

Yes, I tried the console command and advanced the story mode, sadly I believe this is gonna ruin the game experience (He's inmortal, kills enemies and kinda makes the game boring) . I tried removing all living beings but still not worked....

Building bug has ruined my joy :(

Hi everyone. I've hit a building bug in the game and can't find a fix online 😦 I've been playing for a few weeks and have built a huge base, and suddenly I can't place blueprints anywhere, can't dismantle a lot of things, blueprint platforms are glitched with no legs and parts don't click together anymore. I'm unsure what's happened.. Anyone else experience this and maybe have a solution? It's a Multiplayer Hosted server, and i didn't make multiple saves 😦

RedModManager not showing my mods installed.

Yesterday I installed about 35 mods using redmod manager, and it installed redloader and required files etc. All works brilliantly in game, all mods show in game, no issues. However I want to delete a specific mod, and going to redmod manager it shows nothing is installed - been like this since used it and I just thought was a bug.
Is it possible to just manually delete the mod from the mods folder? Cheers...

Transferring world but keeping player save

The current owner of the world does not play often enough so we want to change the host to someone else. I know that you can transfer the world save to somebody else but while doing some research online I found a post that said the new host would get get the player save from the old host if we were to do this. Is this true? If so is there a way to avoid it? (beyond just using cheats to manually recreate each inventory) or would each player still just keep the exact player save that they had on t...
