Hey!
So as you may or may not know, my current project is an online game using, of course, blizzards awesome RMXOS. I'm getting close (relatively) to being ready for public testing. I've got an old laptop that I want to use as a dedicated server for the game. I've never done this kind of thing before though, so any help at all would be greatly appreciated. I need to know what to do to set up the laptop and what I need to do to make sure people can access the game, but not the system if that makes sense.
You should check out the few topics that are here at the forum already. If I remember right, most of them are somewhere in the script section.
If you use a router, the most difficult part is probably setting up port forwarding; the exact steps depend on your model of router. Google it, and I'm sure you'll find some results.
