Hi, I am new to this forum. I have tried to set up my own PA: Titans custom server in order to play with my friends with less lags and more player slots. After a few attempts the server seems to be working but I can't find a way to connect to it because the server is not visible in the lobby. I am using Windows 10 and the server is set up on my computer. I port-forwarded this port in my router: 20545. Thank you in advance. Here is the server log: Code: [10:24:58.000] INFO Started at 2016-08-08 10:24:58 [10:24:58.000] INFO SDL: Built w/ v2.0.4, linked w/ v2.0.4 [10:24:58.000] INFO Mounting D:\Program Files (x86)\Games\Planetary Annihilation Server\Planetary Annihilation Titans\media\ as / [10:24:58.000] INFO Mounting C:\Users\KopajGlan\AppData\Local\Uber Entertainment\PA Server\download\ as /download/ [10:24:58.000] INFO Loaded buildID 2016053194684 [10:24:58.000] WARN Crash reporting disabled.

You are missing several dashes in your serverparams and some of the dashes are fancy hypens. I think it should be: Code: "serverparams": ["--headless", "--game-mode", "PAExpansion1:Config", "--allow-lan","--server-name", "PrivateServer", "--max-players", "15", "--max-spectators", "5"] The "No sim" just means that no simulation has been started yet. That is, it's just waiting for players to connect and the game to start. You shouldn't see this screen though. The --headless parameter is supposed to suppress it. ( @Quitch : I noticed that the guide on Exodus has – instead of --. I think fancy editing software got in the way there.)
The text is correct on the backend, but it's being displayed wrong. I've switched it to preformatted mode to resolve the issue. Thanks for the report.
There are 2 guides, one on this forum and one on Exodus site (I'm on the phone, just Google it). As far as I remember, both are for Linux, but you can make it on Windows in similar way. There is a YouTube video in which someone does it on Windows. If you need some help, reply here or send me private message.
