Topic: Got server and can use it on "LAN" but not online

Well i can make an own teeworlds server.

My problem is: I cant make it online so that everyone can join. I can only find it under "LAN". Does anyone know how to make it online?

And how can i change maps? I can only play on ctf2 and if i make it to a different map then it doesnt start anymore.

Re: Got server and can use it on "LAN" but not online

have a look at the "setting up a server section"

sv_register

Whether the server should register on the masterserver or not (if on, it will show up in the server list). (default: 1)

==>
sv_register 1 means you register the server at the masterserver

Also, check if people can join your server by connecting to your IP. If they can't, then you should configure your firewall and/or router.

The proposition "I am the center" need never be uttered. It is the assumption upon which all certainty and all doubt turns.

Re: Got server and can use it on "LAN" but not online

Well on "LAN" i can see my server. If i host a server and i can see it on "LAN" and not on "INTERNET" means this that i have to change anything under settings or anything or is it my firewall which fails and if it wouldnt fail then i could see the server under "INTERNET" AND under "LAN"? So is there anyone around who has a server and who can answer me the question: "do you see ur server only on INTERNET or also on LAN?" if u see it only on Internet: What do i have to change to get it to internet and not LAN?

Re: Got server and can use it on "LAN" but not online

no he didnt. he only said that i have to make "sv_register 1" and i made this. and he said that it should be in my list then but not that it will be in both lists (Lan and Internet)

EDIT: i looked around in the forum and there has somebody said: "The server will allways be under LAN for u. And for the others under INTERNET" so i got my answer now smile

Re: Got server and can use it on "LAN" but not online

nope. that's wrong! I had it several times under Internet (as I think correctly).
and you never mentioned that it didn't worked. you just asked your first question again...

Re: Got server and can use it on "LAN" but not online

Another question is:
If i change that sv_map (or so) from "ctf2" to "lost" then it doesnt start anymore. Why?

Re: Got server and can use it on "LAN" but not online

1) You wont be able to see the server on the internet page unless the router supports internal connections to the external ip.

2) Probably 'cause you don't have the map in the data/maps-folder.
