You must have a static IP to make that.

No other ways? Our ISP doesn't give static ip's.. So i have to publish my ip every reconnect? What about No-IP?

I have dynamic IP and I run my servers through no-ip. I know at least no-ip have a small software that tells no-ips dns what IP you have.

However I don't really get the point as your tw-server tells the master server your IP every now and then, so it should be up to date all the time.

Used to be very active waay back

Yes, the teeworlds server tells the master server it's ip.
Your teeworlds server can be connected to the internet via DSL and LAN or WLAN,
even behind a router, there only has to be a portforwarding to the teeworlds server.
From this point of view, a static ip is makes sense because it mostly also means that the server is
directly connected to the internet, and not with a NAT between.
But a static ip or DynDNS is not necessary.

There would, however be a problem when someone puts your server as favourite and next time they start Teeworlds your server has changed IP. They won't be able to find your server in the favourites.

Maybe it's possible to manually add the server to your favourites by adding the dyndns/no-ip address to your settings.cfg (add_favorite teeworlds.no-ip.com:8303)?

I have a dynamic ip too, and in 0.5.1 it is not possible to add a favorite using letters.
At least I tried and it failed.
