Laravel 5.3 relationship issue

Question

class Game extends Model
{
public function regions() {
    return $this->hasMany('Region');
}
public function servers() {
    return $this->hasMany('Server');
}
}

class Region extends Model
{
public function servers() {

    return $this->belongsToMany('Server');
}
}

class Server extends Model
{
public function regions() {
    return $this->hasMany('Region');
}
}

Every game has a server and every server has a region. I'm trying to get all the games, its server and its region:game=Game::with('regions', 'regions.servers')->find($id);

I get an error, that: Base table or view not found: 1146 Table 'region_server' doesn't exist (SQL: select servers .*, region_server . region_id as pivot_region_id , region_server . server_id as pivot_server_id from servers inner join region_server on servers . id = region_server . server_id where region_server . region_id in (4, 5)

What am I doing wrong? Thanks!

Your relationships seems to be broken, you should do it like this:

class Game extends Model
{
    public function regions() {
        return $this->hasMany('Region');
    }
    public function servers() {
        return $this->hasMany('Server');
    }
}

class Region extends Model
{
    public function servers() {
      return $this->hasMany('Server');
    }
}

class Server extends Model
{
    public function region() {
        return $this->belongsTo('Region');
    }
}

According to the above relationships,

• Every Game has many Servers.
• Every Server belongs to a Region
• Every Region has many Servers

Hope this helps
