For some reason in Valheim these players meeting causes issues that neither experiences alone or with other players of a similar ping.

This is actually quite interesting. I had to read it twice to see if I'm reading it right - hopefully. ^_^ I never would consider that ping differences and location differences would trigger something like this. This sort of knowledge could be useful in other applications as well.

Are you hosting the game via dedicated server at home, or just a multiplayer game via from one person who is also playing the game?
