Author Topic: I can't join my own dedicated server but others can?  (Read 9539 times)

I can't join my own dedicated server but others can? For the past week I've been trying to figure out why I cant join my own DED server. Though I can easily start my own game from "START GAME" in the Blockland Menu but can't join my own DED server. When I try to join the server, the DED console doesn't even react to my joining connection but it does for others. IT IS NOT MY IP because others can join and I've tried changing it to make sure it was the right one. If anyone has another idea other than, opening ports, making sure the IP is right, and restarting the router, then I'm listening! I'VE TRIED ALL OF YOUR GUYS'S SUGGESTIONS!


Someone help...

Give us a console.log of the server please.

Why did you make a new topic?

Join through LAN or put the server's IP in the Direct IP box.

It doesn't show up in LAN. When I try to type the IP in from the computers CMD Ipconfig section, It STILL doesn't react. Is there any way to find the IP from the DED server console?

from the computers CMD Ipconfig section
Ohh lordy, this is just too good.
Try the ip you get from http://whatismyipaddress.com/

Ohh lordy, this is just too good.

Shut up, he's doing it right. (assuming his computer is on LAN)

Did you try joining it through "Internet"?

Assuming his computer is on LAN
He says his server wont show up on lan and in one of his other three topics he stated that others can in fact join his server, so he's doing something wrong in that department. It may be worthwhile to try his actual external ip address tp connect.


Is the server running on the same computer that you're playing Blockland on? In that case, try typing "localhost" or "127.0.0.1" in the direct IP box.

NOTHING comes up on the DED console. Its like it doesn't even realize im connecting.

You didn't answer my question:

Post an actual console log, not a picture of it.
Go to Documents>Blockland>Upload the thing named "console", it should be here:

Im pretty sure thats the right one, correct me if I'm wrong.

You didn't answer my question:
Yes...its my computer system and network...

So it is on the *same* computer as the computer you're trying to join from.

Check what port it's running on by typing this in the server console:
Code: [Select]
echo($Pref::Server::Port);Tell us the results.
