Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues, here’s a section to help you troubleshoot:
Chat is not opening: Gamepass PC version (non-steam) doesn't have chat by default, but there's a mod on client-side that can be installed [here is a guide for enabling chat on Gamepass version].
Password is not working: Make sure you're typing the correct password (ADMIN password) and that the game was restarted after changing it in the Basic Settings. Configuration templates will show incorrect passwords until the game has been restarted.
