Title: Weird Encounter
Post by: Fuzzy168 on December 15, 2011, 04:40:49 am
Yesterday(14 December 2011), I was taking vehicle position. I used Internal IP as my server IP. I thought no one will see it. Than suddenly three guys entered my server. 1 from my country, another from Pakistan and another I don't know from where. I always thought that Internal IP won't be on the internet list? I checked using the VCMP check by stormeus. It says not online? There was the guy from my country when I checked to see if my server is actually online of not? I have a screenshot and a thread of my discussion with the first two.

It's not about what IP you use. The announcing to the master server is automatic as far as I know. You'd need to restrict the server to your IP only i.e lanmode 1. (In case you're talking about Pawn that is)

Nope. Its squirrel. So if your lucky you can see the development of Project RPG. Else, you have to wait.

Squirrel's originally discussed in the other VC-MP forum and yes, now that I remember, announce is attached to the Squirrel server. Only thing you can do is lock your server to keep people away from it.

If I recall correctly,
Quote from: server.conf
<Announce>false</Announce>

Then why does this never happen when I use Pawn? I mean its ok for people to come in but why when I use Pawn, there is no one coming in?
