i got a question, i've openned all the ports for KF... and tired to host my own listhening server... but i waited for a long time and nothing happened at all...

is there a way to check to see if ppl even tried to connect?

coz i'm not seeing anything... not even in the console... regarding ppl joinning... so i have no clue if my server's even being seen by anyone or not... or ppl are just not able to join...

thanks in advance~

If you are behind a router you might need to forward the ports to your computer's ip. It depends on the router, some need a forward some not.

Additionally there is a setting in the killingfloor.ini which is called ServerBehindNAT=False. Set that to true and see if that helps.

I've got all the necessary ports forwarded and I've tried that NAT setting, but still no dice. I'm able to host in other games and I was able to host in the previous version of KF, but not here. Anything else I could try?

I've forwarded all necessary ports and changed that setting, yet it still doesn't work. This is rather disappointing as I was able to host just fine in the previous version of KF, and still can in other games. Is there anything else I could try?
