Hosting a LAN Game behind a proxy
Posted: Wed Oct 12, 2016 4:01 pm
I'm trying to set up a spare machine to run a LAN game that people can join, however it is behind some proxies and firewalls that I don't have control over.
Version is 0.13.20
If I run the game client normally and create a multiplayer game, people can join fine and everything is grand.
If I try to run it with --start-server I get:
I don't want to keep putting the server up and down when people want to play, but since people can join when running it from in-game, is there a way to get the server to not need to contact auth.factorio.com?
I tried in the server-setting.json, in the hopes that it would stop it, but didn't seem to do anything
