While this does allow you to host a server, other people won't be able to join it, so you'll need to port forward 2 ports to allow other people to join. The ports you'll need to forward are 37015-37020 UDP, and 8081 TCP by default, if this works as it should, this should result in your server being displayed on the server browser, and other clients being able to connect to it. - + + +## Hosting a Dedicated Server -**Hosting a Dedicated Server** Dedicated servers allow you to host a Northstar server without having to use a full client, making them more lightweight and easier to host for longer periods of time. Dedicated servers are still in development for Northstar, so while they do work, expect some bugs and general jank. To start a dedicated server on Northstar, launch NorthstarLauncher.exe with the argument `-dedicated`, this can be done manually, but releases also provide the batch file `r2ds.bat`, which will also do this. When using a dedicated server, arguments are read from `ns_startup_args_dedi.txt`, rather than `ns_startup_args.txt`. |
