[1.1.35] "Browse Game" window for multiplayer displaying old information despite clicking on refresh.

For roughly the last 3.5 hours, the list of available servers and their corresponding age haven't updated for me. E.g. a game server (that it says has people in it) shows itself as always being 10 minutes old. I hop onto one server that displays 154 hours on the browse game screen, type /time into the console and get about 3.5 hour difference.

Pressing refresh, closing and re opening Factorio does not fix the problem.


Edit: I uninstalled and reinstalled the game but now have a similar problem. When clicking "browse games" / refresh, it sometimes displays the old information and sometimes displays the current information. Clicking refresh a few times seems to reliably switch between the two. When the game automatically refreshes the list, it seems to default back to the old information.

Can you provide a log file?

I no longer have the problem of sometimes loading old information after having been logged out of steam and sleeping for a few hours.

In previous.log, I'm 99% sure I pressed refresh in browse games a few times before/between joining multiplayer servers. If I did spam refresh in that session, I would have seen it occasionally give old information as today is the first time I'm noticing that I'm not seeing old information.
