Server multiplayer IP
Posted: Fri May 18, 2018 3:23 am
Hey everyone, I am trying to create a headless multiplayer server on Ubuntu but I am running into an issue of not being able to get in game because I am not getting an IP address after starting the server. If I start a server as visible to the public then the address (or something that I get as an address is a random, long string of letters and numbers.
This shows the server as running but I have absolutely no clue how to join a server with this address since it doesn't show up on the public game list and it won't connect directly, even if I try my real IP address with the game's port.
Meanwhile if I set it to hidden I get stuck on opening socket for broadcast.
If there's anyone who knows how to resolve this issue I would be very glad to hear it. Preferably for both visible and hidden options.
