Changing ports on LAN

Post by Ghost367 »

Is there a way to change the ports Spring uses (8200) when hosting a LAN server? I already searched for this but couldn't find anything.

Are you talking about spring.exe or the lobby server?

You can change the port of the Lobby server by adding the -PORT flag. I would guess that you can used the fixed port tunneling meathod to change the port of spring.exe

I am talking about the lobby server when hosting it on LAN. I know you can change the one the game uses from the host battle window of the battle screen. How exactly would I add the -port flag? I already tried changing the port it says it uses in the TASserver file.

When starting from the commandline probably.
