1. Hi dear friends

    I ever was using servers with the ports open
    Is any way of open a server on the same computer of the servers run and test in it something.
    There is not needed to let more ppl enter, just me on my pc.

    I tried running a server with this configs:

    RustDedicated.exe -batchmode -nographics +server.ip 0.0.0.0 +rcon.ip 0.0.0.0 +server.port 2801 +rcon.port 2801 +rcon.password "pass" +server.maxplayers 75 +server.hostname "test" +server.identity "testsrv" +server.level "Procedural Map" +server.seed 190719 +server.worldsize 3000 +server.saveinterval 1000 +server.globalchat true +server.description "test" +server.headerimage "" +server.url ""


    but I can not connect in any way

    I tried:
    client.connect 127.0.0.1:2801
    client.connect localhost:2801
    client.connect IP on the LAN:2801
    client.connect PUBLIC IP:2801

    What do you see on the server console? It will show when it is started. First step is starting the server, connecting is later.
     
  3. I hope your joking... o_O
    Of course I started the console
    All fine and running,
    I connect to Rcon
    but Can not connect in game
     
  4. client.connect 127.0.0.1:2801 ?

    Not joking, I can't tell what your console shows, and it may not actually be connected. Looking at your config now though, it looks like you have both ports set the same, which you can't do. Set RCON to 2803 and it should work.

    That's the port he has set in his .bat.
     
  6. The Server seems to be working fine, is started and can connect by Rcon,
    I can change things by commands, and run SAY "HELLO", all fine,
    but testing all of this Not worked:

    client.connect 127.0.0.1:2801
    client.connect localhost:2801
    client.connect IP on the LAN:2801
    client.connect PUBLIC IP:2801
     
  7. server port and rcon port can't be equals...

    Right, which is what I mentioned when I said to change the RCON port to 2803, though 2802 would work fine now too since query isn't split anymore.
     
  9. thank you,
    I not noted that!
    Seems like changing the ports now work...

    but its rare, because Ports not need to be used in a pc without connection...

    Ports are always used. 28015 is the default, but that is still used.

    I put 28019 rcon
    and 28020 for game and worked

    thanks to helpers
    and Wulf... the first time I read your 2nd reply I dont read the port thing, maybe you edited later :/ sorry

    I edited it shortly after I replied, but you likely had the page open before I completed it. No worries. :p
     
  13. Running a local test-server with the default ports, its also enough for local access to call
    Code:
    client.connect
    only to connect yourself to your server.
