Dedicated Server not showing up in "Internet" list
Closed this issue · 8 comments
The things I've done so far:
Installed the server via steamcmd
Opened ports 27015, 27016 TCP+UDP
Added my GSLT to the config.json
Started the server via ./ServerHelper.sh +InternetServer/MyServer
Now everybody can join the server using the server ip but the server does not show up on the server list nor is it possible to invite people via steam to the server.
Here is the console output I'm getting:
Also when I look up the GSLT, I see that it is being used since the lastest login in set.
It looks like it's starting up okay. When you mention players can join by the server IP: are they on your local network, or over the internet? If they can join over the internet then it should just be a matter of time before it shows up. If by joining through Steam you mean over the internet though it's probably related to the port forwarding configuration.
Thanks for your reply. Players can also join the server outside the local network. So I think I will just give it some time then. And for the invite via the steam overlay: Does this also only work when the server is listed?
Inviting through Steam overlay should work regardless of whether the server is visible on the internet list. What happens when trying to join through the Steam invite?
When I accept the invite over steam, this happens:
I wonder if it's getting the wrong port through the Steam invite. Off the top of my head there are a few messy things there, but as far as I know the Steam invites should be working normally. I'll double-check whether Steam invites are working on my end.
Could you attach the Client.log file after accepting the Steam invite and then manually connecting please? This way we can see if the port is wrong. https://support.smartlydressedgames.com/hc/en-us/articles/12299037547284
I found the problem in the log file. So basically what happened was, when trying to connect directly to the server everything was fine. But when trying to connect via steam overlay then my server is sending outward traffic which is somehow sent with a different sender address out of my local network. So when the other is accepting the invite, it is trying to connect to the different sender address where obviously no unturned server is running.
Thanks a lot. Now I know what to fix in my network.
Glad to hear you got it sorted out!
