Metrics and status are incorrect

Hello,
I'm running a following setup:

The /status and /metrics endpoint report incorrect information about player count, this is with 2 players connected:

any advice?
This causes backups to never happen.

This information is fetched via the steam api, in the ingame browser does your server appear with the correct information and player count?

[mbround18]

Can you try

odin --debug status --address [public ip you use to connect with]

[mateuszkozakiewicz]

steam@valheim-server-web-app-645df98ff7-z67w7:~/valheim$ odin --debug status --address <my public IP>:2456

however my local IP gives me somewhat better output on port 2457?, still number of players is incorrect

[mbround18]

the +1 port is always the status port, should have specified :P and this is with people in the server?

[mateuszkozakiewicz]

Yes 3 people currently

[mbround18]

Just tested Vanilla

With just BepInEx

With BepInEx and that mod:

Are you sure you are using the correct public ip address and the public port is forwarded for the steamcmd status port?

[mateuszkozakiewicz]

I leave the ADDRESS env empty and it fetches the correct one, I have ports 2456, 2457, 2458 forwarded, people from outside are able to connect but odin seems not working correct.
With local IP output from odin works like I would expect it to, except player count.

[mbround18]

Would you mind trying to set the ADDRESS field?

[mateuszkozakiewicz]

The pod kept crashing because odin would never start the /status page on the http port, however I was able to fix that by setting up NAT hairpin rule on my router, now it works with external IP same way as with the internal (everything except player count)

Hairpin NAT rule also fixed my steam server browser and this one shows 0/64 🤔
