Technical Support / Hosting error
« on: October 30, 2014, 03:27:31 PM »
Once a week I have friends over and we play games. The last couple weeks we've tried to play hammerwatch but had issues connecting. I would host on my mac and my friend on a PC was unable to connect. I left the game and clicked on host again, this time I got the error:
Host error Socket address already in use.
We each restarted hammerwatch, then we restarted our computers. We still couldn't connect, so we restarted our games once more and somehow it worked. Our only clue is the host error mentioned before. Also note that we are playing through LAN. I really have no clue whats causing this and why sometimes it works.
