Wait, what? Do you mean you want a server that no-one else can connect to?
Well, then...
  • you can safely ignore the error message and just do /lanconnect (in the client, of course)
  • actually, you don't need a server at all

I've used the server.exe for multi-client tests on a single machine. No internet required. It's rather boring though.
You need to add -mlocalhost to the server's commandline extension, then you won't get that pesky "WARNING: Could not connect" message. Or... Maybe you get the message anyway, but it doesn't hurt you.

Ok im going to change my words... I need help.. what do I put for the server and the forwarding? and how do I connect the thing to the internet.. it keeps on saying Cannot connect
I know I put 25764 or something for the server port but what do I put for the forwarding and how do I connect it to the internet

well connect to the internet, then forward your ports. use an ethernet cable or wireless to connect.

in your router, go to port forwarding and insert the ports
28763 28764 udp tcp
have them forwarded to your computer. also, make sure that you have a static ip on your computer.

TCP is unnecessary, why does everyone include it? Just in case?
