Start here when the game is already shared with other players and the real problem is invite flow, save ownership, or version drift.
Shared sessions
Co-op database
Browse co-op entries that lead into real Core Keeper routes.

15 live entriesCommon mistakes includedLinked to deeper pages
What to watch for
The common mistake is jumping to gameplay fixes before the world, version, and ownership baseline is stable.
Good next click
If the co-op baseline is still unclear, move into the shared-session hub or the update page that matches the drift.
When to use this shelf
