 I've been recently trying to play with friends on P2P server. A issue which i become:server connection closed. I attach the fragment of the logs below:
2022-03-22T22:07:47 179.857 INF [Steamworks.NET] NET: Connection closed
2022-03-22T22:07:47 179.857 INF Exited thread SteamNetworkingClient
2022-03-22T22:07:47 179.858 INF [NET] DisconnectedFromServer: Serwer zakończył połączenie z klientem
2022-03-22T22:07:47 179.859 INF [EAC] Disconnected from game server
 
I tried to reinstall steam and the game, also verified the game files, reinstalled the EAC software and wiped the download data from steam. I realized that should be a problem with the steam authorization token and my nickname is not visible on ingame console while trying to connect. Our common ideas for solving the problem are over. We tried to connect while i was hosting too and there were same problems with connection. 
 
I am sending the latest logs from the game in the llnk:

Thank You in advance for Your help.

Issue with port forwarding and/or an antivirus/firewall preventing the connection. There's a support FAQ covering how to rectify this

 
Use an online port scanner to make sure the ports are actually open. We've seen some cases where some routers are not actually forwarding ports that you ask them to. Also, some internet providers do not allow customers to forward ports on their routers and you  have to contact them for them to forward the ports. But first, I'd run the online port scanner and be sure you are forwarding all the ports necessary. The critical ports that need forwarded are listed in the pinned topic above.

 
The problem was solved after removing the external anti-virus program which was blocking the port forwarding, despite the settings in his firewall. After remove I simply opened firewall in windows and problem resolved.

Glad it's resolved. Yeah lots of external antiviruses are way too aggressive.
