How to have player list show players playing on all places?

  1. What do you want to achieve?
    I want all players who are playing my game (on any of the multiple places) to be shown on the website server list

  2. What is the issue?
    My game has multiple places.
    The first place that players join is a “main menu” of sorts.
    You customize your character there and then join one of the multiple biome worlds. Here’s a diagram of an example:


    For whatever reason, the player list only shows the players who are on the main menu place.
    Seeing as players will be on the main menu for a relatively short amount of time, I’m afraid this will hurt my game’s discover-ability.

  3. What solutions have you thought of so far?
    I’ve thought about having the entire game on a single place, however, this would greatly limit my flexibility. This would also greatly increase load time.

If I’m not mistaken, I recall seeing some games that somehow got around this issue.
Is there an option somewhere that I can toggle to fix this?

there is no toggle
make an ingame server list

discoverability isn’t a problem, it shows the actual player count on the main games page, you just cant directly join someones server from the website in this manner
