}}
Developers are working on fixing this issue.
 
 
 
=== Endless Loading Screen ===
 
No solutions are yet avaiable.
 
 
 
=== Crash on 32 bit Windows Systems ===
 
It appears that there might be compatiblity issues with 32 bit Windows systems, the game itself crashing after the users attempts to run it. This does not affect users with 64 bit systems.
 
 
 
Instances of this happening include:
 
* After the loading screen that follows 'PLAY' from the main menu. This is accompanied with object related scripts not being found.
 
* During gameplay.

== Multiplayer ==
 
=== Port Forwarding ===
 
StarForge requires the 7100 UDP port in order to create a server. Certain players may experience conflicts with this port, no solutions exist for this issue.
 
 
 
=== Can't Join A Server ===
 
Either the server is down or the ip was written incorectly. It can also be cause by the inability of properly opening ports. The current 7100 port may have some conflicts with other services making hosting impossible at the moment for certain users.
