Local Server doesn't work though client GUI

LordZardeck

Tried to test out the local server launched through the client GUI, but after launcher the server and trying to connect to it, I get this error: Your client version is incompatible with this server version. From what I can tell, the server is an electron app bundled with the game, and I just freshly installed the game today through steam. Is the local server via client not supported anymore?

What is the server version as reported in its launcher?

Hi, I got the same issue. Client was installed yesterday through steam. The server version is v3.1.7. How to solve?

artch

What is your OS?

I'm on macOS High Sierra 10.13.6.

I can confirm that the Steam client for MacOS is bundled with the wrong server version. We're going to fix it ASAP. Meanwhile, you can install the standalone server package from npm: https://www.npmjs.com/package/screeps

Ok thank you. I could already start a local server via docker. Anyhow, thank you for support.

macOS and Linux distributions are updated with 4.0.5 version.

Hi @artch!

I'm not sure this is resolved. I was encountering the original issue the other day and then yesterday a new one popped up in its place.

I'm receiving the following error in engine_runner1.log:

There may be an issue with the 4.0.5 update.

@carlcastello Could you please update your Steam client and try again?

@artch Updated and seems to be working. Thanks so much!
