So I am trying to set up a dedicated server for playing with friends. I have three PCs. Regardless of how I set up or configure the dedicated servers on any of the PC's they are unable to ping each other or themselves. Nevertheless, they do all show up when searching for them in game. All IPs are the same when looking at their settings within the join game window and all appear on the same port each IP starting with 204. I have checked my WAN settings for the router and opened all ports. Attempting to join results in "Could not connect to server. Could not retrieve server information." I have additionally attempted to install Radmin VPN which can ping each machine within the network but does not resolve the connection issue within the game.
Any help you are able to provide would be appreciated.
Additional info
All PCs are running Alpha 21.2 for both the game and the dedicated server using windows and steam.
UPDATE: I deleted all 7dtd game folders, Dedicated server folder, and User files under roaming data and then reinstalled the game. Seems to work now.
UPDATE 2: So while it worked for me to connect to my own machines it does not seem to work for others outside to connect in to me. Any help anyone can recommend would be appreciated.
