I've been trying to host a dedicated PZ server for my friends and I, but no matter I try they cannot connect to it (getting a "server failed to response" message.) Here's what I've tried:
-I've forwarded ports 16261 and 16262, as well as Steam ports 8766 and 8767 as UDP rules
-Created exceptions in the Windows firewall for these ports
-Completely disabling Windows firewall
-Enabling UPnP on my router
-Hosting the Steam and non-Steam versions of the server (I have been launching the server program from its installation directory/batch file, not through Steam)
I'm going crazy - did I miss something on the wiki? I'm able to host other servers without issue, it's just PZ that's been giving trouble. I can post the server logs if needed. Thanks for any help you can give!
