Server is started, but only RCON works

So ive been messing around trying to get my RUST server running. Finally got the Rcon to go fine, one step in the right direction. Now im having trouble getting the server to load though. I can access locally. As the batch file was booting i saw "Rcon started on 28016", nothing else that hinted towards the server. Ive heard I may need a static IP. what is that and how do i go about doing so if needed.

Thanks,

I dont know how to test for the server. Just been trying to see it in master list. I have port forwarded 28015 and 28016. Im assuming i opened Port 28016 since i was able to connect using an Administration tool. Though not seeing Server on master list...

Here is batch if it helps.

Code:

@echo off
cls
:start
echo Starting server...RustDedicated.exe -batchmode -nographics +server.ip 0.0.0.0 +rcon.ip 0.0.0.0 +server.port 28015 +rcon.port 28016 +rcon.password "xxx" +server.maxplayers 100 +server.hostname "Phoenix Gaming X5/TP/" +server.identity "MyRustServer" +server.level "Procedural Map" +server.seed 2147483647 +server.worldsize 3000 +server.saveinterval 300 +server.globalchat true +server.description "X5 Gather/n Teleport/n Stacks " +server.headerimage "http://i.imgur.com/ouN630f.jpg" +server.url ""echo.
echo Restarting server...
timeout /t 10
echo.
goto start

Any help woud be much appreciated, learning about all this is interesting. Renting a server just isnt feesable at this point.

Thanks,

That is correct, yes. And yes i can connect via"connect localhost:28015"

 

I've tried the suggested to no avail. I dont understand why. Thanks though.
