Friends can't join on a Factorio.com install

Post by S_gamez »

[0.18.16] Issue having people join on a Factorio.com installs. Every thing working fine with steam. It's really annoying to load Steam every time anyone is join my game, as i have to move mods and save over to steam folder. As not all setting is the same from steam as in a Factorio install. with the view of me using different setting from save to save. /update game before using. Have even tried open port forwarding.

image of the error am always getting.

I'm sure providing a logfile, could be of some help. Right now, one can only tell the client can't connect to server, which doesn't help, I guess.

Issue solved by switching the port forwarding from TCP to UDP
