Hello
What is UPnP?
And, could having it enabled cause any issues for a client trying to join my hosted server?
Could having it disabled be what may cause issues?

How are you hosting your server? @cobalt token

#

The Host option in the game

#

From my PC

#

My Hosted Server*

#

No idea why I typed "dedicated"

Well, typically for dedicated servers that are in home setups, UPnP should be disabled and the ports opened manually (port forwarding) in your router

I don't have a router, I share internet to my PC from my phone via Hotspot

You will likely need to direct invite your friend(s) then via steam or such

Yeah, that's expected

#

I really won't host the server

#

I'm just trying to test a configuration that will work with the friend that has only 4 GB of RAM

What you mean by configuration?

I fear that he might run into problems when I host the server, but the same mods and maps could work fine for him if the regular host uses them

The mods and maps added and loaded

#

One of the players has Terrible performance if we add too many mods

#

And seemingly if we add many maps as well

Possibly
