that means you can not connect, which usually means a firewall issue is present. most likely, the one who is hosting the game did not forward the requried port to his machine (router settings/NAT).

he has to forward 8452 UDP

Try hosting game using SpringDownloader
Or join existing autohost and add AI bot there.

simplest solution : when hosting a new game, just check the "use relayhost"
