Is the server you are attempting to join running the correct version of factorio?

[Unfug]

Yes, Problem is still there, some servers work, some do not. Cant figure out.... doenst even matter modded / unmodded

You've got extra/garbage files left over from old versions of the game.

If you're on steam delete the steam Factorio folder and verify the game files.

I ran into this issue today on 16.39, and Rseding91's suggested fix worked for me.

I deleted the folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Factorio

Then, to restore that folder in steam I did factorio properties -> Local Files -> Verify Integrity of Game Files, which restored all the missing game files I just deleted.

Both me and the hosting player took these steps, so I'm not sure which one fixed it, but after we both relaunched, it let me connect.
