Describe the bug When trying to play on local network, guest cannot connect to server. Both computers run Linux without firewall active, both computers are on same network connected via ethernet and both computers can ping each other without a problem.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. On host computer create new world and open to LAN
  2. On guest computer attempt to join hosted game

Expected behavior Guest should be able to connect to host without a problem.

I think I managed to isolate problem. When trying to connect to host via scanning for local games, the game tries to connect directly to MAC address hosting the game, which results in an error. This can be bypassed by:

  1. Press Direct Connection button
  2. Enter IP address of host computer
  3. Hit Join Server and enjoy

I still leave this issue open as it could be potentially very problematic for less technical players.
