Hi,
I spent some time using the arena feature of FPSC, and finally created a cool map to fight on. I gave the files to my friend so we could test the game together. The problem is, both of us can host a game, and we can even see eachother's games in the join game menu, we just can't join them.
For example if my friend names his character Matt at the beginning and hosts a game, when I go to join game I see 1. Matt; but I can't join it. What do we need to do?
Thanks!

Hello, only one of you can host and the other person has to join after the host starts, and the host must also setup port forwarding on their router if they are using one to open UDP port 2303 and also make sure your software firewall must also open port UDP 2303 as well, failure to do the above will always cause you to get "waiting to join"

here's a post from Darkfact that goes into more detail.

Ok,
I'll re-direct and post back see if that fixes it. Now, is there a way I can keep a server open from my computer without sitting on the program all day? I don't want to force users to direct ports just to host their own game. If I could have multiple default servers going that would be better.
