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....

The game stays on the loading screen and closes suddenly

Hello, when I tried to enter the game today, I entered the game and clicked on the game save I bought yesterday, the name Sons of the Forest started to fill in and when I reached the halfway point, I got the Unity Crash Handler error and my game suddenly closed, please help me.

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is set to "Wi-Fi" (it gives it its own ip) I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if the guide I'm following is outdated, can anyone help?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...

Files changed in dedicated server revert to default

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...

Can you build a wall around the Cannibals to stop them from trying to raid you?

If you disable construction damage and then build a defensive wall ring around the camp of the cannibals. Are they still gonna be able to get to you or leave the camp?
