    I have shared my project with another developer who is building on their own machine (mine is Windows, theirs is Mac) and when we try to connect to each other, we are getting a "Network Config Mismatch" error. When I build a Mac build on my machine and send it over, it works fine.

    What could be the issue here?

    Hi, what NGO version are you using? Did you try these steps already?

    I'm on 1.4.0.

    I've looked at that thread, but I don't see "Use Prefab Sync" in my network manager, so I'm not sure if that's the issue.

    Do you have a stack trace of the error we can have a look at?

    EDIT: I think "Force same prefabs" it the checkbox that thread refers to

    Not at the moment, the next time I can test with this friend I'll see if I can grab it.
    Thanks for getting back so quickly.

    Follow-up: I think it was that the Network Prefab List updates dynamically sometimes. I'm not sure when this happens, but I believe it caused the list to be different on the machines without us realizing it.

    Oh ok, so the error is legit in your case, as your configuration is actually different
