Running SPADS behind a router
Posted: 29 Aug 2015, 20:23
I'm having trouble running the autohost from a laptop using that's behind a router. I forwarded both 8452 and 8453 ports to it.
The host shows up on the official server, players can enter the battle room and chat.
Another computer from the same LAN can start and join games successfully, but outside players can't connect to it at all.
from the settings here
tried to change
forceHostIp to 0.0.0.0
and natType on hostingPresets.conf to 0, 1 or 2
the current ports are:
- spads.conf
autoHostPort:8453
- hostingPresets.conf
port:8452
I tested some combinations, but nothing worked : outside players can chat but can't join the game. Spads log only shows the "[GameServer] Connection attempt from .... " for the other computer on the same LAN.
and do I really need 2 ports?
