Is it a generous time to complete these challenges or can the timer be turned off?

Been through every map with sick gamer Bean5050, twice so we could both interact with the sword but no achievement for either of us?

To swap with another player it says to hit home + 0. What or where is the home button?

Trying to play with a friend and we're having trouble joining each other's hosted games. We've both tried being the host and neither direction works. Are there ports I should be opening? In-game settings I should check?

We had a bug where we placed all the food correctly and the game didn't let us progress. We spent around 20 minutes trying to figure out if we missed something eventually giving up and pressing the hint button. As soon as we pressed it, the dinner table puzzle completed (without us or the game moving anything) and we could progress further....
