Re: Cargo Distribution
As FooBar pointed out, if you know the name of your server you can look here: http://www.openttd.org/en/servers
Mind that the list is cached, so allow 10-15 minutes or so since you started you server before concluding that the server is not listed.
Ensure that you have made the necessary port forwarding settings in you router. Please see docs/multiplayer.txt in you OpenTTD installation for some hints. For help on how to do the port forwarding in practice you have to see the manual of you router or search online as that differs from router to router.

Re: Cargo Distribution
They are forwarded, like the errors said I had to when I ran it the first time. Anyway i'll check that one out.Zuu wrote:As FooBar pointed out, if you know the name of your server you can look here: http://www.openttd.org/en/servers

*edit*
They are open o.0 I'm sure of that, non more warnings and I did it myself so I'm sure of it

Re: Cargo Distribution
The server will only show up on the list if it can be contacted by the master server. So somewhere the signal is lost.
When I use the PHP library to connect to OpenTTD servers, I get a CONNECTION ERROR when trying to connect to your server at address=94.226.226.163, port=3986.

Re: Cargo Distribution
I tried to join the server, but I get a "VERSION MISMATCH". However I have the right version, ge2371f40.
Re: Cargo Distribution
You need ge2371f40-cd. Does this -cd also appear in your version (see game title screen)?
Re: Cargo Distribution
No. But I have applied the Cargo Distribution patch and it works. What do I have to do to get the "-cd" in the version?
Re: Cargo Distribution
you need to get a git clone, otherwise the revision detection will not work, and multiplayer will be disabled.
Re: Cargo Distribution
What I always do is:
git clone git://github.com/fonsinchen/openttd-cargodist.git
cd openttd-cargodist
git checkout origin/cd
./configure
make
make install
So what do I have to do instead?
git clone git://github.com/fonsinchen/openttd-cargodist.git
cd openttd-cargodist
git checkout origin/cd
./configure
make
make install
So what do I have to do instead?

download the right version/latest.
Re: Cargo Distribution
What is the version string displayed in the title window? You may have to do "git branch cd && git checkout cd" before configure, so that the branch name matches ("origin/cd" might not be the same as just "cd").OggVorbis wrote:What I always do is:

Re: Cargo Distribution
Server is up again, it just shut down for some reason, but I'm only now back so that is why it took so long.

I think there was a powerout or something. Anyway nothing on it suggests a crash.ChillCore wrote:Crash log? crash save? Out of memory? anything?allemaaltevinden wrote: it just shut down for some reason
