Me and my friend are trying to make a set of maps to play online between us and a few of our other friends. However we have come across a slight problem. Whenever either of us host the game, the one hosting the game can choose their character and run about, however the other is always waiting to join. I am using FPSC 1.09 to make the map, and we both have port 2303 open in UDP and TCP. Is this a problem we are facing that is easy to solve?

Thanks in advance for your help.

instead of typing the ip address that yo want to connect try typing the number all the way to the left of that line, for example it would be #1 if there is only one person hosting the game and try both enters, first the one next to the " key, if that one does not work try the other one.

please post if it worked or not.

Still didn't help :/ I had an idea though and just thought it might be a problem. Would I need a static IP address for it to work?
