Hello everyone!
I’m having trouble setting up a LAN connection and would appreciate any help or advice.
I have one host and one client:
Host: MacOS Sequoia
Client: MacOS Ventura
When trying to join the LAN server from the client, I receive a "Connection Failed" error.
To troubleshoot, I monitored the network traffic on the host using:
sudo tcpdump -n -i any port 24642
When the client tries to connect, I can see the following packet arriving at the host:
IP 192.168.1.15.61568 > 192.168.1.52.24642: UDP, length 5
However, there’s no response from the host, which results in the "Connection Failed" error on the client.
One thing I’ve noticed is that under System Settings > Privacy & Security > Local Network, Stardew Valley is not listed, and I can’t seem to add it manually. I found this thread (https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/475737/how-can-i-manually-allow-local-network-access-for-an-app), which tells us that Local Network Privacy is a new feature in Sequoia and that the app needs to be updated by the developer with a "multicast entitlement" for it to be granted local network access.
When I switch the laptop roles (host becomes client and client becomes host), it does work.
Has anyone had success running a LAN server for SDV on Sequoia? Or does anyone know what could be causing this issue / how to fix it? Thank you!
