Problem Description

Issue

do you know why this wouldnt be working?

Reproduction Steps

  • launch server
  • have players on the server
  • view dashboard, 0 active users
2

If I remember rightly, Project Zomboid does not properly log player joins/leaves - so AMP can’t track who is present and the number of users.
