How to Join Friends in ROB RUN on the Same Server

Agree on the destination first

Information to share	Purpose
Region	Select the same geographic server group
Exact server	Identify the same world, not just the same region
Who is switching	Avoid both players moving in opposite directions
Session goal	Decide whether to meet for a run or settle together

A character identifier is not a substitute for agreeing on the server. Keep the information distinct when explaining a mismatch to another player or support.

Fix the server mismatch

Decide which player will move and confirm the destination.
That player opens the global map and selects the Prison.
Choose Surrender to Feds and enter the Prison.
Switch to the friend’s server from inside.
Send the party invite again after the move.

The support article provides that sequence. It does not guarantee that bases, carried items or money will move with you. Inspect current warnings before switching an established character.

Build the group plan after joining

For a heist, assign entry, carrying, cover and transport duties. For a shared base area, look at settlements and progression requirements before paying for land. If the goal is a fresh cycle, remember that picking the same server does not itself prove that it just opened.

Clans are also server-scoped under the current FAQ. Organizing a clan does not remove the need to coordinate the world each player joins.

Will repeatedly sending the invite fix it?

The documented solution changes the mismatched server first, then sends a new invitation.

Can friends in different regions play together?

The official switching workflow supports joining the friend’s server. Both players need to agree on the destination; connection quality remains something to check in the client.

Does joining a clan move a player?

No automatic move is established by the sources reviewed. Coordinate the server separately.
