If not, are you getting any error codes? Which game version are you using? You can see it on the main page, e.g. Alpha XXV 4 hours ago, Harry.J.Silver said: i was wondering whether online is possible between linux and windows or if this is just a bug Cross-platform works. Make sure that you and your friend have the same game version. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry.J.Silver Posted October 25, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2021 it also does allow me to log into the multiplayer lobby but it only ever has a couple of people playing (i believe this is because i am on 23) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Player of 0AD Posted October 25, 2021 Report Share Posted October 25, 2021 If you don't mind some effort you could build the newest development version: https://trac.wildfiregames.com/wiki/BuildInstructions#Linux And maybe then update (or better said downgrade) it to Alpha 25b: https://trac.wildfiregames.com/wiki/BuildInstructions#Keepinguptodate1but "svn update -r r25860" instead of "svn up" There might be an easier way to install 25b, but I don't know. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
