Connectivity Problem with V Rising - Can not connect to Vrising server locally or outside network

Alrighty, let’s break down the problem and get you connected to that V Rising server!

Let’s Start with Some Basics:

  1. Home Hosting Check: Are you hosting this server from your home network? If so, you’ll need to set up both local firewall rules and port forwarding on your router.
  2. Port Forwarding: V Rising typically needs ports 9876 (UDP) and 9877 (UDP) for game traffic. Have you done this step yet?
  3. Firewall Rules: Make sure your firewall allows traffic on the above-mentioned ports.

Next Steps:

Port Forwarding

  1. Access your router settings: This usually involves typing something like 192.168.1.1 into your web browser.
  2. Find the port forwarding section: This varies by router but is often under ‘Advanced’ or ‘NAT’ settings.
  3. Forward ports 9876 and 9877: Both should be set to UDP.

Firewall Rules on your Server (Linux)

  1. Check your firewall status: Run sudo ufw status to see if a firewall is active.
  2. Allow the necessary ports:
    sudo ufw allow 9876/udp
    sudo ufw allow 9877/udp
    

After you confirm these settings, let’s see if you’re able to connect. Let me know how it goes or if you need more detailed steps on any part! :rocket:
