Can a iOS user join a world with a PC user? [duplicate]
I can't figure out if the PC version user can join an iOS version's user world. I tried connecting, but I don't know if I have to click Join Via Steam
or Join Via IP
.
Best Answer
No, you can't.
Despite being the same game, they are two different versions; even with the exact same content, the PC and mobile versions of Terraria work differently, and making them interact like you would with two mobile games or two PC games is not a simple task. Or not, see comments.

Answer 2
As it is, you cannot do it. The PC version and the mobile version are different in terms of items, bosses, etc.
It might be possible to make some sort of "crossover" server, but I bet that it would require effort, and you would need to make a Terraria mod on the PC, or a modified game client for compatibility with the server. I am not sure if the source for iOS is available, but the PC server source is AFAIK.
