to run a server on a seperate port you need to use the -p swich in your conf, and also add the port number to the -publicaddr .

Code: Select all

-p <port you want>
 -publicaddr your.ip.or.dns:port

or as an example

Code: Select all

-p 5155
 -publicaddr example.bzflag.com:5155

I should also add that you need to convert your existing port 5154 server to use the format:

Code: Select all

your.ip.or.dns:5154

Otherwise your new servers on the 3 ports will not get on the list server.

Don't forget to also forward and/or open ports 5156-5158 UDP/TCP (if you haven't done that already).
