Issue Title: Can't connect to my friends

Issue Description: Me and my friends used to be able to play together and have played on quite a few servers hosted by ourselves, suddenly though, since yesterday we are not able to connect to each other on servers anymore. If i try to connect to my friend it asks me for the password and after entering the screen will remain black, then after a few minutes or so it says something fishy is going on, unable to connect to servers. i have not been able to find a fix for this yet.

Steps to Reproduce: all i did was try and connect to a server of a friend of mine, it doesnt work when i try to connect to another friend either, i have been able to connect to them before. but now we are not able to any more.

I'm having the same problem - played with my boyfriend for the first time 2 days ago (he hosted) and it worked fine, now when I enter the server password and try and connect I get a black screen. He says that it shows that I've connected at his end though.

:heart-broken:  Same trouble here since the newest update. Friends can't connect. Tried resuming the server (which I'm hosting) but unticked 'Friends'. Still couldn't connect. What's interesting is that, when I'm in the game, I press the Tab key and can see him listed with him but there's a question mark over where his name should be so it's failing at the last hurdle. We tried restarting the game; restarting Steam; reconnecting ten or so times. Hope Klei fix it soon as we're dying to get on with more co-op shenanigans.

Hey it's the steam connector that doesn't work  in my case.  If I try to join game through steam friends it fails but I searched for the server and it worked for me.  Hope that helps

 

Good to know. I can see my co-op chappie is online so will see if he can test it with me. Thanks for the tip. :-)

Hey guys, a little update here, i am still not able to connect to my friends through the friends list, we did, however, find another way to join each others' servers. if you go to the server list itself and then filter on friends, you will be able to join the server hosted by your friends, this is not a fix of the problem, but definetly a way to work with it!
