Portfowarded! OMG (need testers!!)

[hodototman]

GTG dad is here >.>

no need to announce this.

I put my ports to 28000-28007

ports should be 28000 - 28030

no need to rape the reply key, just use that dandy modify button and all your post problems are solved.

tip: don't rape the exclamation key!!!!!!!!!!!!

You do know there is UPnP in Blockland now right?


That means portforwarding isn't required at all anymore, you just have to enable UPnP on your router.

Hold on, How do I enable it?

Options/network.

I used to have the same problem with this until I entered my ip address into the address bar. Then used my routers info, but apparently my new router doesn't need to port forward since it automatically does it, which is weird..

The port is just 28000. You no longer need to do 28000-2800XX (XX = Number of players).

Make sure you have a static IP and you edited your IPv4 properties in your network card.

Any Router should have UPnP already enabled, if it is just enable it in the Blockland Options.

I don't know why this myth is so prevalent. I've run a whole lot of Blockland servers off hardware servers and I've only ever seen them use 1 port each, it's considered extremely bad practice and completely pointless to listen on more than one except for the purpose of providing a different service on a different port. Most people forward a 7ish port buffer zone so if they for some reason restart their server multiple times very fast (before the port has a chance to close, they take like ~3 min after being disconnected from) the server can use the next port up for hosting off of.

Soo.. I don't understand. I used to do 28000-28020, change 20 to how many players an then people told me its just 28000 UDP and TCP so I was like oh okay and it worked fine.

You only need to forward a single UDP port.
There is no need to forward an array of ports or their TCP equivalents.

When I do the ipv4 thing it just messes up my network and then I have to remove all the things from the ipv4 address then my network starts working. Help?

You don't need a static ip and what the hell is a network card.
