I fixed it. When you hold ctrl and click lmb on a server grid you see a thick box called Home Server, i had to click that on all non freeport/lawless grids and now all servers show up.

also on the same tab you will see Override ShooterGameMode Defaultgame.ini Values, with key and value under it.

under key you can put ClampHomeServerXPLevel and under key put 100

This will let you level up past level 8.

I hope i helped someone with this.

 

You can more help on the devs discord, as many of us had the same problem .   The better fix is to add all the servers to your steam favorites and make everything not a home server there is too much hidden stuff we cannot control for home servers.  The real bug is that rejoin does not work, as it knows where you are.

Atlas really needs single player mode or LAN server support. Especially now that the devKit is out.

You do not need a LAN menu just put it in steam favorites using your internal IP and query port and it will show up in favorites.    Now this is not as user friendly to use as ARK was (port forwarding multiple servers) but once you get past that it works great.   Although you do have to still deal with updates like that last one that trolled those in sloops searching for FoY by making the damned AI impossible for noob and solos to deal with.   But once you realize it is a MMO that you can play private solo and look for the gameplay tweaks and mods you can make it more to your liking...

Yeah - that seagull contributing to your poop deck?   Birds are NPC too so if you are fully crewed - ship sinks.    The unofficial server I play on had mystery boat sinkings looking for a scapegoat to hang as exploits are bannable.  Turns out a bird will up your count, whereas a rabbit does not.  I could see that parrot on your shoulder counting, but apparently code does not care if wild or tame?

need to be if you do not have sails above 30% it works as it did before otherwise the beaches will be littered with stuck rafts.    It was vrery useful to slowly pivot your raft to sail out of a dock or rock.

Bit silly to have to write down your entire skill tree because last level you took an unwanted skill and just want to drop that one.   Just use the existing drop hotkey used in inventory to drop individual skills so can more easily edit the respec.

Found this server when my original lower rate server vanished, no discord contact.    If looking for modest rates that enables solo and small group play while still feeling like a survival challenge this is for you but those looking for 5x-20x should go elsewhere. 

Active discord notification on reboots is great as is admin availability.    Have yet to explore the new 3x3 map (afraid of border death) but was able to get a land/naval claim same isle as my old server, learned a lot from watching the server creation on twitch.

The current UI it is very difficult to see where the centerline is, be much easier to read if the origin of the bars was at 50% rather than 0%.    Too  many times I inspected it closely with H and saw I was at 30%.  This way if your vitamins are going down the bar itself points down rather than retreating from up.    You are balanced if you do not see any bars.

Check the upcoming patch notes, vitamins already do provide a buff if balanced - nobody noticed because you have to stay balanced for an hour so they are reducing that to half hour.   

I suggested they counter the buff if unbalanced so it is +/-  continuum and do away with vitamins killing you

In upcoming patchnotes there is an Equilibrium Buff which I presume is for vitamins, but I have never been able to keep them in the middle for required hour (new patch cuts time in half)  despite eating balanced meals as I would kill myself with overeating - much quicker to just drown myself and respawn.  

So instead of vitamins killing you  just increasingly reverse this buff when out of Equilibrium.   Chasing a continuum of  +/-20XP, +/-30 fort, +/-10 speed, +/-20 dmg seems like a buff/nerf worth managing rather than drowning respawn to rebalance vitamins.

Having it do buff/nerf rather than outright killing you seems much easier to balance the gameplay mechanic in the future rather than having to deal with conflicting vitamin/food rates that are changed by different perk builds.
