WHAT IS WRONG?

[top10awesome]

So I wanted to publish my game. I read the tutorial and did as they did.

1.) went to config.ini and put my Ip address from IpChicken
2.) Zipped up My game and Data Files
3.) Got Simple Port Forwarding and set up a Port to TCP 7001-7001 Ip: (Current Router Ip)
4.) I tested it out and it works for me, but when My friends from away try to play, it doesn't work!

The server was running and everything, but for them it says server is down..

PLEASE HELP!!!

Hi Chrome!
Just to double check you have port forwarded right? If you're not sure or think you have then start up the game's server and use a port scanner ([http://www.t1shopper.com/tools/port-scan/](http://www.t1shopper.com/tools/port-scan/)) to verify the port has been forwarded correctly.  Just enter in 7001 in the input box 'Scan this list of port numbers:' and click scan. If the scan says the port didn't respond you probably haven't port forwarded.

Haha, yeah I was about to suggest using a tool like that but then got distracted by youtube.

You can also use [this tool to check if your server is running and accessable](http://www.freemmorpgmaker.com/status/index.php). Just put your server's IP, port, and have the server running and it'll tell you if it's online of offline to the interwebs!

You should but the computers internal ip on the portforward not the router ip
