Hi Miners! ⛏️
While we were working on preparing the roadmap for you, we discovered that some users were using external/hacking methods to abuse the private lobby system in ways that should not have been possible.
These users were joining rooms they were not supposed to access, disrupting other players’ games, selling items, and generally griefing sessions. We want to be very clear, we have already identified the hackers involved, and we have the necessary account information. Action will be taken against those responsible for what they’ve done.
This update is a temporary security fix while we work on integrating a better and more permanent protection system.
For now:
Invite-only rooms can only be joined through direct Steam invites (you can send invites inside the game by clicking invite button from the pause menu)
Lobby codes are temporarily disabled and will not work
Invite-only rooms will no longer appear in the Server Browser
These temporary changes are here to protect players while we finish a stronger long-term solution.
We’re sorry for the trouble this caused to players who were affected. Thank you for your patience while we deal with this properly, and please keep reporting any suspicious behavior or issues you encounter.
