I have a server and i can connect to it when it's running on local host but when I make it my WAN IP I can't but my friend can connect, is there a way to let the server connect to it self?
I am not going to use Hamachi.
Use a loopback adapter.
How do I do this?
I installed it but how do I use it now?Quote:

use a clean (127.0.0.1) IP localhost for yourself and distribute a client with your wanIP for your friends.
It didn't work, it kicked me back to the login screen.Quote:

EDIT: Ignore this, since you're using a localhost and not a redirector. I misread in the beginning.
There is no debug, here is the file
Do I set the lookback as the server IP or no? I tried both and still no dice.Code:package constants;

You set the loopback as your wanip or 127.0.0.1. Either will work, since you just want it to allow you online while the server is public.Quote:

I want my friend to be able to connect to it too though so It can't be 127.0.0.1, my friend lives on the other side of the country but if I set it as my wan he can connect but I can'tQuote:
