Steam Key Validation

[Col. Burton]

Every time I start up blockland, it will just sit there and validate my key for 5+ minutes until I close it and restart it, most of the time it works, and sometimes I need to fully restart steam, and sometimes my computer.

Does anyone know what is causing this?

post the console log you get when it takes 5+ minutes to auth

Huh, that message shouldn't even show if you use steam. Are you sure there isn't an old key.dat in the folder for whatever reason and it's using that instead?

Your network router could be the cause

bump, it still does this every time i first log into steam.

It's natural if it occurs for a few seconds.

If it still goes on for five minutes though...

which it does, and i need to close and re-open the game multiple times, and sometimes shut off my computer for it to work.

Same issue, but it turns to Authentication FAILED: Connection to steamAPI failed (1).

Actually, I fixed my issue by clicking the Retry button.
