Players attempting to self-host Dune: Awakening servers have encountered a technical issue where using dashes in network device or server names blocks server access. A community member discovered that names like MYNAME-GAMESERVER prevent the server from working, while removing the dash restores functionality. This suggests the game’s server software or networking components struggle with dashes in identifiers. Self-hosting players should avoid dashes in device names to ensure smooth server operation and save troubleshooting time.
- Issue confirmed with official Funcom, AMP, and GitHub Docker tools.
- Removing dashes from device names resolves server access problems.
