Cannot connect or see my server on t6zm

[Dss0]

Stratos no. make sure that server is running on port 4977 or whatever the next free port is (prolly 4978 if you also have a mp server running?) 4976 is reserved for the client so you shouldn't be using that.

[Stratos]

Dss0 I tried using 4777 strictly, then 4777-4778, and then 4778 strictly with no change. Friends can still on all ports, but I cannot.

[Dss0]

Stratos the server is running on the same pc as the client right? so try 127.0.0.1:4977 or localhost:4977

[Stratos]

Dss0 I am using a separate computer to host the server unfortunately

[Dss0]

Stratos can you ping that pc from your pc?

[Stratos]

Dss0 yes I can!

[Dss0]

Stratos no idea then, that makes no sense.

[Stratos]

you mind joining the plutonium discord vc? I can run you through everything I am doing via screen share as I RDP to the server.

[Dss0]

Stratos but there's nothing wrong with the server setup as other people can connect, there is smth wrong with the connection between your primary pc and that server pc on your lan. what if you just move the server to your primary pc?

[Stratos]

I'll try that, but before I do, I should mention that with all the connection processes possible, I can connect to my own server, so long that it is running as an mp(multiplayer pvp) server

[Dss0]

Stratos did you make a firewall rule on your server pc? Maybe you only allowed the connection for public networks by accident?

[Stratos]

Dss0 I am quite sure as I had both checkboxes ticked on the windows firewall pop-up when I first launched the server.

[Stratos]

So after messing around with it, somehow it finally allowed me to connect, I basically just installed the server-client on my pc but ran the server on my dedicated server and I can connect somehow. TL;DR it works!
