Servers?

Post by Silencer805 »

I'm unable to join any servers, or rather find. Nothing turns up in the "Find server", and I get a message in my chatbox saying "Can't talk with list server"
I'm using windows 10, just installed the game so probably not an issue that can be solved by reinstalling.

Do you have any parental control apps on your computer or do you have Windows firewall turned on? Sounds like something is blocking BZFlag from connecting to the internet

I allowed BZFlag to bypass firewall and issue still persists. I can't join a server I started too. Localhost doesn't work either

Did that, plus turned off firewall. Didn't work. Still can't connect to localhost or find any servers
Edit:Issue seems to be with my wifi connection. My ping is about 70 which isn't the issue. I am able to load youtube videos. However I cannot update games on steam or launch some games. Not sure if this is related to why BZFlag isn't working for me. Anyone know any solutions?
Edit 2:Just restarted my computer and my router at the same time, that solved it, sorry for the trouble guys! Thanks for the help :)
