Hosting Multiplayer

Ports or instructions

From my understanding multiplayer requires a designated host. I know from other games you need to forward ports but I couldn't find a list where the port numbers were listed. Can anyone please tell me which ports I need to forward or what are the instructions to host multiplayer games?

Thanks in advance

Just set up a game in ICO or LAN. No need to worry about the forward ports.

ICO? and we aren't playing on the same connection, will lan still work? (usually it doesn't)

IronClad Online or ICO is where most go to hook up. LAN still works last I check (about a month ago). Just have Alloy set to on and set up.

Make sure you run the host test first once you sign in to ICO. When I'm at my place in once city I can host just in, at another alloy has some sort of issue with my internet IP or port or whatever. If you can run it great, if not you'll need some more in depth trouble shooting...
