Help: Raids Don't Start

Raids do not start if I am next to another player. That is, there is a notification about the start of the raid, the music turns on, the effects are there, the attack area is shown on the map, but the mobs do not appear. And this only happens if I'm next to the second player, when I'm alone, the raids work fine

what is the problem?

There was an earlier thread posted where another viking said he was being hunted (the wolves raid/event0 while on his longship in the ocean. No wolves appeared. The same thing has happened to me. I passed it off as the wolves spawning on the ocean floor and being unable to swim up to the surface. The wolf raid/event can happen anywhere; the presence of three or more base structures is not required.

Yesterday, the wolf raid/event triggered while I was scouting a Fuling village on the Plains. I hopped up on a nearby boulder, invoked the Bonemass power, and prepared to meet the canine onslaught and the fulings drawn in by the ruckus.

Except for an occasional goblin giggle and the red circle appearing on the minimap, nothing. No wolves. No fulings. No lox. Not even a deathsquito.

Other normal raids have occurred since. Obviously, some other factor is in play.

numerous tests have shown that raids do not start when I (the creator) is next to another player. When I'm alone on the server, raids start anywhere without problems

I'm wondering if the event is using your buildings but triggering for the other player and if they don't have the required base items down themselves its not spawning the mobs. just a guess.
I would report it as a bug here. https://valheimbugs.featureupvote.com/

How much building have they done? There are claims (that I am inclined to believe but have not personally experienced) that if you have enough spawn-negating buildings around you can weather a raid without any enemies having the chance to spawn in and attack.
There are not many buildings, my main base is many times larger, but raids appear without problems
