Hi, I am trying to host a server for my friends and I but we are running into some issues. My friend who is on my LAN network and I can join with no problems but my friends not on my LAN network can not join. I have set the port in commands.dat to 27017 and port forwarded a range of 27015-27017 and have checked and the port is open. I have opened the ports on my firewall as well but they still are not able to join. They can see the server info and that me and my friend on my LAN network are on but when they join they get server not responding
#Friends can not join

if you make the port 27015 or 27016 in the commands.dat file it should work
alternatively, there's server code (shows up in the console each time the server is loaded up) and they should be able to join with it even without port forwarding
(the game uses the port set in the commands.dat (or 27015 by default if one isn't set) and the +1 port from that, so by setting the port to 27017 you'd need to port forward 27017-27018 for it to work)
