The Linux version doesn't filter the multiplayer server/games list to only show compatible games like the Windows version does. Instead it shows all games for all Factorio versions.
Currently the multiplayer server list shows servers where the version is incompatible to the client version. Regardless of any password or mods I will not be able to join a server running on version 0.13.20 with the client version 0.14.17.
Because of this there should be either a filter for compatible versions (which should be defaulted to "Yes") or these servers shouldn't be listed at all, I cannot join them anyway.
[0.14.17] Linux version doesn't filter games list by version
Re: [0.14.17] Multiplayer browser filter for version number
Are you sure that's the case? I've never seen a server/game listed that was not running the same version as mine. Right now I just compared the Browse games dialog of 0.13.20, 0.14.13 and 0.14.17 and I get completely different results between them, each only showing games with the version I'm using.
You can check the version of the game/server on the right side, in the mods list it says base 0.14.17 or whatever version the server is running.

Re: [0.14.17] Multiplayer browser filter for version number
As seen in the screenshot I get servers which are incompatible to play on.
In case its relevant, I'm using the linux 64bit version

Re: [0.14.17] Multiplayer browser filter for version number
It does look like it's linux (and maybe mac) specific.
On windows I only get the servers/games running the same version as me. There also is no "Version: ..." listing on the right side. And going by the scrollbar you can see more games than any of my versions, probably all of them.
I'm not sure if that's a bug or a feature only available on windows, it doesn't make sense for me to implement it different on different platforms.

Re: [0.14.17] Multiplayer browser filter for version number
I have the same problem as the OP. I run Ubuntu Linux version 16.04. Can this be classified as a bug and moved to the appropriate forum? 

Re: [0.14.17] Linux version doesn't filter games list by version
First check your configs for 'use_version_filter_in_browse_games_gui', that determines whether the list is filtered by version or not.
Re: [0.14.17] Linux version doesn't filter games list by version
On Linux (64-bit .tar.gz) this setting defaults to false, but on Windows (64-bit .zip) it defaults to true. Is there any reason it's not enabled by default on Linux?HanziQ wrote:First check your configs for 'use_version_filter_in_browse_games_gui', that determines whether the list is filtered by version or not.

Fixed for the next version.
