Or use Server Port Changer to choose a different port.Then give people your external IP. -- Invite Code: Invite Code connections are routed through Steam/GoG . I've provided two methods for delivering your - game's current invite code to players: - Invite Code Auto Copy/Paste: The server will copy the most up-to-date invite code to the clipboard (on by default in - the config.json file) whenever it changes. You can then use a macro program of your choice to paste that code into the - chat service of your choice so that your non-steam friends can always have access to the most up-to-date invite code - even when you are not there. For your convenience I've included an AutoHotkey script under the Files Tab> Optional - Files here on Nexus that you can use. Run the Game Server>Run the AutoHotKey Script>Open Discord or other chat - service and click into the chatbox of that service. The current invite code for your game will be pasted and sent - every two minutes. Do not close the chat window of your chat service or click out of the chat box or it will not work. - When the game server is turned off it will no longer copy the key so be sure to turn off AutoHotKey as well. - Invite Code Bot: The server will copy the invite code to an "InviteCode.txt" file in the same folder as the mod. You - can use this to make a bot for a chat service/website/etc. I've provided the code for a node.js Discord bot in the " - Discord Bots" section at the bottom of this page. +- Direct IP: You will need to set a up direct IP access over the internet "Join LAN Game" by opening (or forwarding) + port 24642. Or use Server Port Changer to choose a different port. People can then "Join LAN Game" via your external IP. (Taken from mod description.
