Hi there! What you may have to do to fix this problem is to re-install your FH, and then see how it works after. I hope this has helped. If it hasn't please PM or Whisper me in game: Dimensional Tea

It is most likely just a glitch, there is no need to re-install you game there Morgan. It could be that the other player needs to restart and not you. It sounds like this only recently has been happening so again, it could just be a glitch. If the same thing keeps happening after a few days then feel free to send me a message about the issue you are having.
