Troubleshooting

What is the port used by the game?
The default used port is TCP 14804. You need to have it forwarded to your machine if you want other players to be able to join your game.

Do i need to port forward if i'm just joining someone else's game?
No

When i start my own game, nothing happens and i get a 'connection fail after 3 attempts'.
When you click to start a game, it auto-launches a server and attempts to connect you to it.

The server is a different program and a different window will popup.


 * If you see the server start but connection fails, you likely have a local issue with anti-viruses or firewalls.
 * If you don't see the server start it means the "auto launch" does not work on your machine.

You will have to launch the server manually from the game files and then connect to it by

going in "join game", direct IP, and typing "localhost" as the IP and 14804 as the port.

This will connect you to your own server.

I'm getting lots of "out of memory" errors every few minuts!
Make sure to launch the game in administrator mode.

I'm stuck at the tutorial.
If for some reason your tutorial bugged or you got stuck, you can disable it.

Go into %LocalAppData%\local\ymir  open config.ini.

Put the startup tutorial value to 0 to disable it:

Put the enable tutorial to 0 to disable ALL turorials.

Where do i report bugs, issues and suggestions?
You can report these in the Ymir reddit here


 * Please make sure to select the appropriate flair after posting your message.
 * Do not report "one time bugs". If the issue only happens once randomly and is gone when restarting the game, do not report it!

I am randomly getting disconnected with 'ping timeout' errors.
You can check the quality of your connection to the server by putting the mouse over the round light button on top right of the screen.

It tells you your ping, and % of network packets lost. It turns orange if the connection gets too unstable.
