@hollow tapir created the forum post for you

hollow tapir
#

nice

#

so yeah

#

i know i can connect to people because i accidentally did

#

but i dont seam to be able to host

#

(this is something im familiar with)

#

happens to me in other games too

iron geyser
hollow tapir
#

yeah i dont have a router

#

i use mobile hotspot thats probably the problem

iron geyser
#

now that's a peculiar situation

#

hotspot is your only option?

hollow tapir
#

yes

#

im super rural

iron geyser
#

i know you live on the countryside

#

interesting

#

so prob not much we can do since you don't have a router

hollow tapir
#

yes thats what i tought

iron geyser
#

now you made me wonder how well does starlink work with squiroll MikoLaugh

hollow tapir
#

so i guess its up to the person i want to play with

hollow tapir
hollow tapir
#

lets se

#

might be closed ports

#

or something

#

@iron geyser she has wired internet

#

so i guess closed ports?

#

now i ask if you need open ports to actually play

#

i guess yes

#

right

iron geyser
#

that would be preferable

#

at least you can connect to people

hollow tapir
#

hmmmm also what is the UPaP thing

iron geyser
#

upnp?

hollow tapir
#

uhhh yeah the setting diable or enable

#

what is that

iron geyser
#

upnp is universal plug and play, it will automatically forward a port that is being used

#

so you don't have to go to router each time you want to change the pf

#

if you have closed ports it will most likely not work for you

hollow tapir
#

wait

#

this is just autopunch right

iron geyser
#

on the readme if you scroll down a bit you'll see the download options

#

it's to check if you support holepunching or not and the details of it

hollow tapir
#

ah i see it thanks

#

huh?????

image.png
#

thats strange

#

i though i could not hole punch

iron geyser
#

if you can join someone else you should be able to do it

hollow tapir
#

can we like test?

#

if we can conect both ways

iron geyser
#

sure

hollow tapir
#

novice waiting

#

other way around

iron geyser
#

seems like it works

hollow tapir
#

well ill be damed

#

it works

iron geyser
#

the person connecting to you might be the problem as well

hollow tapir
#

yup

iron geyser
#

but hey on a functional connection you can host

hollow tapir
#

ill try to troubleshoot her now

#

thanks

#

man

iron geyser
#

np

hollow tapir
#

👍

#

what im wondering now is why other games wont let me host with my network.....

#

have to explore that another time

#

@iron geyser you there

iron geyser
#

yes

hollow tapir
#

the result

image.png
#

this should explain it

iron geyser
#

yep

hollow tapir
#

so now try to open ports right?

#

is there a esier alternative way?

#

autopunch maybe?

iron geyser
#

for these types of NATs proxy servers may be able to allow you to holepunch

#

chinese players use one to use squiroll

hollow tapir
#

she is on Ethernet

#

so its probably a device thing?

iron geyser
#

yeah

#

we currently don't have anything for that sadly

hollow tapir
#

so we gotta open ports manually

#

its just because she is not super technically versed

#

i dont want to let her go trough that if there is another option

#

someone should make a port opener script for windows

crisp shale
#

I know I'm late to this

hollow tapir
#

i know

#

its a system thing

crisp shale
#

Mhm

#

Upnp can with to open ports

#

But I've found that usually people need to go to their routers

#

Since upnp is typically disabled

#

But anyway, you guys solved this MamiPray

#

Have fun with the game

hollow tapir
crisp shale
#

Unfortunate, as I read

#

Since they have a router

#

They could attempt a pf

#

But having a router doesn't mean it's always possible

hollow tapir
#

i know

#

idk if its router or system related ether

crisp shale
#

We can help them out if they come in here

#

I can help check if they can pf

#

If not me, taku

#

If not them

#

You probably have plenty of connections in soku

#

To see if someone in there can help with better timezones

#

I don't get out until 4 hours

#

And takuneru might be busy

hollow tapir
#

im good i will see what i can do

crisp shale
#

So just let us know if you/ your friend would like to push this

hollow tapir
#

its late for them tomorrow we can work on it again

crisp shale
hollow tapir
#

i found this

#

requires java 11 but im trying it now and it looks like it works

crisp shale
#

managing pf

#

So...

#

Yeah, good luck

hollow tapir
#

scary ui moment

crisp shale
#

Not really

#

Looks simple

#

Look at the buttons only

#

Create
Connect

#

Those are the important ones

#

The top is a list

hollow tapir
#

yeah

crisp shale
#

Not really that scary

#

Just gotta figure out which helps you

hollow tapir
#

so get my local ip and port and map it to something port forwarded thats how this gores right?

crisp shale
#

That's not how pf works

#

Well

#

Kind of

#

Listen, I'm on my job break

#

@iron geyser if you want to keep helping him, feel free

#

And Lorenzo, I wish you good luck
