Hello,
I wanted to ask some help about hosting a server in Killing Floor 2.
I wanted to host a online server, where I could play custom maps with my friends. So I rented a server from the site called: ZAP-Hosting.com. But I don't quite understand how the game hosting works when you have a rented or dedicated server (KF2Server.bat).
I wanted to ask a few questions regarding that:
1) First of all I would like to know, if my rented server is up and running, does it appear on the server list in the game? or I have to connect to it by opening console: "open (server ip)"? or where does the server appear?
2) Question about the rented server: I'm renting a server from this site called: "ZAP-Hosting.com". But I guess the settings are almost the same also on the other sites. How do you change the difficulty, map, waves etc? Do you have to open the config file on the server site and then edit the settings there?
3) If I can't see my server in the server list and can't connect to it by console. Then I probably have to open some ports in my router page?
4) When hosting a dedicated server: I have to open the KF2Server.bat, and go to the webadmin page (where I can change the map and all the server settings). And my server should pop up on the kf2 servers list? Or where do I see it/ How can I connect to it?
I'm very grateful for all the support you can give me.
Thank you in advance,
Chris M
