[MP][HOSTING]At a distance

Post by Marshal »

I can`t host any game.
I have no a router.

But, we have a lobby server :)

If player very want to host game, but can`t, need new function with
hosting game on lobby server with permissions for hoster.
This sub-server for games need of course catpcha and other anti-bot protection.
But for 1 ip 1 game, no more than 1 game.

Password and\or secret name.(I think need only password, pass=name)


Release this please :)

It rather means that you *can* host games. Routers block hosting, that's why they need configuring to allow it.

If your connecting through a network like a block of flats or a school or units ask the network administrator to open the ports in your community router for you.

This topic not about blocking, I about hosting on server.

I repeat again: if you don't have a router, it is even easier to host (no need to configure the router). You are still keeping all the details as a top secret, so we are completely unable to help you based on what you say.

No, they will not make a dedicated server. Not because they don't wont, but because it's a lot of work. Discussed a million times.

NoQ, you should put that another way, dedicated server is AFAIK one of goals, but chances that it will be available in foreseeable future are very small. :-)

Secret?
If I have a secret, why I post here messages?

This is not topic about my connection.


If this disscused many times, why you flood here?

Ok.
Be a respectful :)

Marshal: Would you be willing to host your own public, dedicated server? It's more of a financial and personal-time investment than anything, once the code would be put in place to use one. If you wouldn't do so yourself, then it might not be a good idea to ask/demand the devs to, since they have a lot on their plate that the rest of us are patiently waiting on. :)

(Edit: I don't mean to sound like an ass for saying this, sorry if I come across that way. I'm just saying that it's a larger investment than you may realize.)
