    Hello, sorry to bother you guys, i'm new to PA and i've been playing since last week.

    I seem to unable to add my friend to my friends list though i could search and found his username in the search field in friends list menu. He didn't receive any pending request in the notification field at the bottom right corner of the main menu. When he tried to add me, the same thing happened.

    I'm not sure if this related but i bought the key through humble bundle and my friend's through steam. We both played through steam though.

    Thank you in advance,
    K

    Is his steam name different to his linked uberent account? Ask him to try add kakadede and see if that solves it. Alternatively you can go to recently played in the friends and see if his name is there.

    Oh and hey by the way. Welcome to the forums.

    Hi, Thank you for the reply :).

    He uses the same steam account and linked it to uberent, i also tried adding him trhough the recent player but still having the same issue. Will try again and recheck everything about the account, hopefully i could find out what's causing the issue.

    Me and my friend are also having a problem adding each other as friends. No invites get sent one way or another and we both appear on each other's recent players list.

    I am interested in your problem. Please try the following.

    1) Disable *all* mods.
    2) Create a game (probably with a password) and get your friend to join.
    3) Once your friend is in the lobby, open up the uberbar and select the 'Recent' tab.
    4) Your friend should appear at the top of the list. Right click on their name, and select 'Send Friend Request'.
    5) If this doesn't work, make sure that your friend has not accidentally blocked you. They can check this by right clicking your name in the recent tab. If the 'Unblock' option appears they should selected it.

    If this didn't work, then please let me know and I'll try and figure out what's wrong.

    We had done all that you've suggested already. (Sorry if that wasn't easily understandable in my post).

    Hi, thank you for all the replies.

    I don't know how, but the issue seems to fix itself, i use no mods, and also have tried all the methods above. 5 hrs later i enter the game again with my friend and suddenly i can add him into my friends list.

    Not sure what causing this, we've checked our steam and uberent account and they're linked.

    We've been playing for some hours with minor issue, where my friend who host the game had his PA crash.

    Other than that, it's fine.

    Once again thank you for all the suggestion. :)
