trouble in viking town
After extensive troubleshooting on my end, I wasn't able to get my valheim server to be joinable. However it immediately worked when I used gportal. However they did immediately refund me when I raised a ticket, so 3/5 stars. I suspect a valheim server might work with them if you're not loading an existing world. To the company I recommend posting a video tutorial on loading an existing valheim world with your service. Because even though it showed as running, the IP wasn't joinable.

Hi Ben, I am sorry you had issues with our service. If you had reached out to our support we would have been able to get you up and running in a couple minutes (even with your own world as most customer use their own worlds). We saw this issue with the first releases prior to the Join IP addition to the server browser. The trick to find the server and join was to use your game port +1 (aka the query port) as we noted in our documentation and our FAQ bot. This method is no longer necessary since the developers released the Join IP inside the game itself.
