How do i join my friends terraria world

Renji ツ · May 25, 2023

Hi, i’m having trouble connecting to my friends terraria world even tho both of our NAT types are open, i’ve clear my persistent storage, cleared my mac address etc. I’m starting to believe it’s because me and my brother are playing on the same network but he was having the same problem so he moved to playing on the cloud. i just want to play terraria. It also just doesn’t show that he’s hosting, i’ve tried adding and unadding him but nothing works

Hey Renji!

Nice to meet you! I'm Darhyl, a fellow gamer. I'm sorry you are experiencing this. I am here to help.

If I may ask, does the same error occurs to other games or just specifically for Terraria?

In order to fix this, you and your brother need to perform a series of troubleshooting steps. Kindly manage your account's Xbox privacy settings.

Note: If you and your brother are unable to access your accounts' Privacy settings, which means both of your accounts are child accounts. You will need help from an adult account to manage your privacy settings.

A child account is registered on the birthdate 21 years old and below upon the account's first creation

An adult account is registered on the birthdate 22 years old and older upon the account's first creation

Sign in to your Microsoft account at Xbox.com.

Select your gamertag, and then select the More actions button (…).

Select Xbox settings, and then select Privacy & online safety.

Note Because you’re accessing sensitive info, you may have to enter your password or PIN.

Select either the Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Windows 10 devices Online Safety tab or the Privacy tab.

Review the current settings and update all of the options as "Allow" and "Everyone", and then select Submit to save the changes.

Note You must select Submit at the bottom of the page before leaving or switching to another tab. If you don't submit the changes before you move to the other tab, your changes won't be saved.

Once you're done, check if you can join your friends in the game.

You need to have friends to join or invite somebody to play, there is no matchmaking service for Terraria.

Basically, only friends are join-able/invite-able.

Have fun,

firstly check the game settings then check your privacy settings could be a issue with friends that have not added you as a friend not allowing them to join lastly check nat type settings and ask your friends to do the same.

Thank you for the reply.

My settings allow friends and friend of friends to connect.

As i said, when nobody is connected on my world, one person only can join.

Let me explain with an example :

I am in my world

Friend A tries to join my world : success

Friend B tries to join : failure.

Friend A disconnect himself

Friend B ties to join my world : success

Then, Friend A tries to join again : failure.

The problem is that only one person can join me, and nobody else can, no matter who it is.

Hi Hagen!

Were you able to play on the world before? Do you own it yourself?

Is it a regular World or a Realm? May I also know the exact error message when your friend tries to join?

How about your other friends from other platforms, are they able to join the world which your other friend cannot?

I have found two instances now that multiplayer has had errors like this- The one you are describing and one in Terraria. In Terraria the second, third, or fourth player COULD NOT JOIN until you went online and signed them in (online) or signed a Guest in,
quit, then went back on the world (offline).

These instances BOTH involved major updates to the games and may have something to do with Xbox 360 Programming.
