PC Hotfix (29.06.2020) - Server browser, connectivity and Friends List fixes

With the server update that accompanies this hotfix, whitelisting seems to have stopped accepting SteamID. I can’t find any documentation on this, so with some pointers from the nice community on the Admins United: Conan Discord server, I figured out how to find the Funcom IDs now used for whitelisting (and probably a slew of other things.)

As a server owner, you can find the IDs of a player by following these steps. (This has now been edited twice. Sorry for the confusion. This is all highly strange.)

  • Make sure player has tried to join your server.
  • Open the relevant log.
  • Search for their SteamID.
  • From the join attempt line where you find the SteamID, find FLSPlayerIds_TitleID and FLSPlayerIds_MasterID and grab the strings that follow them. (That is, after the equal sign.) These are the new IDs you need to add to whitelist.txt on separate lines. (Yes, both of them. Yes, together with the SteamID.)

Some official documentation on this would be nice.

EDIT: It’s MasterID, not TitleID. My bad. This is all highly confusing.

EDIT OF EDIT: After messing around with this for hours, I have finally come to the same conclusion as BeardyTheGreek (further down.) You need all three IDs for it to work: SteamID, FLSPlayerIds_TitleID and FLSPlayerIds_MasterID, on separate lines in whitelist.txt. At least this works for me so far. I can actually get into the server again.
