instantly losing connection when joining a friend through steam
whenever i join my friend through steam, for ~10 seconds it says joining friend, and then it says lost connection. i tried joining with different characters and with my mods disabled, and tried joining a fresh world he made with no mods, but nothing has worked. and i confirmed that we are on the same version of tmodloader, 2023.11.3.3. he was also able to join me through steam when i hosted a world.

neither of us know how to set that up or port forward
Port forwarding should be automatic, all you should need to do for typical setups is check your public ip address https://www.canyouseeme.org/
