<p>HWBush: Added comment/suggestion about a bullet point in the prerequisites section.</p> <hr /> <div>== Clarification on the Prerequisites section ==<br /> <br /> Hi webb, I wanted to ask about a specific point in the prerequisites section: <br /> <br /> &gt; ''Optional:'' An opened port on your firewall for the server if you want a persistent IP address<br /> <br /> I'm confused by the wording on this, wouldn't having a port open on the firewall just mean that it's accessible past the firewall? Persistent public IPs are usually given by the ISP and aren't related to the firewall directly.<br /> <br /> I think the last bullet point could just be combined with this point instead:<br /> <br /> &gt; ''Optional:'' Opening port &lt;code&gt;27015&lt;/code&gt; on your firewall and/or forwarding UDP port &lt;code&gt;27015&lt;/code&gt; on your router, if you wish to let players connect over the internet.<br /> <br /> Great work on the wiki page otherwise! looking forward to using this when the steam release drops.<br /> <br /> --[[User:HWBush|HWBush]] ([[User talk:HWBush|talk]]) 20:32, 16 January 2026 (UTC)</div>
