I can host online, I just cant host dedicated?

[Chrono]

Just because it has no ping, doesn't mean people can't join it.

It works.

Check if your router is in Stealth Mode.

Sometimes it doesn't.

@ JPSC: I configured my router in a way where I can easily join other people and other people can connect to me (Blockland hosting, Xbox live "NAT" bullstuff, etc) and like I said, people can join me when I host from a windowed blockland... Either im impatient with people joining my server or due to my awesome _ _ _ ping, nobody can join...

@ Chrono: I joined other people with _ _ _ and i connected yet like how JPSC said,

Sometimes it doesn't.

[Chrono]

I just checked it before I posted that.

It works.

[Shocklink]

Before I go I need 2 more questions...

1: How do I talk with people from the command prompt of the ded server?

2: Where is the file I can configure so it automaticly loads the map I want "Lets say Slate Orbit made by Ace"

1: How do I talk with people from the command prompt of the ded server?

talk("Hello everyone");

2: Where is the file I can configure so it automaticly loads the map I want "Lets say Slate Orbit made by Ace"

You can't, I think.

[JPSC]

You can't, I think.

ops. Yes you can, I just don't know how. You have to edit the batch file.

[Shocklink]

talk("Hello everyone");

You can't, I think.

So if I wanted to talk I have to put talk("Im god"); 

Also, im sure u could...

Edit: Alright, now we need someone who knows Lol

[JamestheLeet]

So if I wanted to talk I have to put talk("Im god"); 

Use announce for that.
It's funnier.

You edit the dedicated command folder so that it is the map you want.
Example:
#!/bin/bash

cd "`dirname "$0"`"

./Blockland.app/Contents/MacOS/Blockland -dedicated -map slateorbit
But DON'T copy this, I am running a mac.
You could try joining and changing the map.

Ya thats what I have been doing, joining, change map, and dip but that begins to get annoying :/

If you start a normal server and change the map, it will use that map when the dedicated server starts, unless that's just for addons, I can't exactly remember.
Anyway, port forwarding conflicts with UPnP, you should really turn one off, I suggest port forwarding.

[Mr.jacksaunt]

Did you ignore my post?
it would be

Code: [Select]

slateorbit
replace that with the map that is in there.
Open up the dedicatedcommand file with notepad to do this.
