Multiplayer not working for prisons with more than ca 200 - 300 prisoners

[AntiGallium]

Hello,
Me and my friends have tried several times during a year or so to play multiplayer. Sadly we haven't been able to get pass about 200-300 prisoners before everybody except the host gets disconnected. I have tried to find a fix for this but without success.

We play without expansions and mods, on the european server. We have tried the other servers too without success.

Please fix this. The multiplayer is super fun but gets ruined when knowing that we wont be able to build a big prison without connection issues.

That's odd because there was a major patch a while ago that fixed all known MP issues, we've gone from having regular reports of MP problems to virtually none.

That said perhaps you are running bigger prisons or something. Does this happen no matter how many players are involved?

I also experience a lot of desynchronizations and disconnecting. Playing only with my friend with less than 200 prisoners and all DLCs.

Establishing connection takes too long as well.

The stability of the game now and the number of bugs with the newest version and all DLCs is horrifying and I really would like to enjoy this game so much. Please fix it.

Though, it sounds like things are working as intended. Yard time is really yard/lockup currently if they have no exercise need they stay in their cells. For eat time we have eat/lockup and eat on the regime. For eat they’ll treat any time after eating as freetime and go fulfill their needs.
