Hi, I'm trying to setup a server for me and my friend to play on(not hamachi), but it doesn't work. I've setup a server in vanilla Terraria before and it worked just fine. With N Terraria, I do the same thing to setup a server as with Terraria, but when my friend or I try and join, it just sits on the connecting screen forever. And yet, for some reason, if I set up the server, then click host and join, I join my server no problem but my friend can't.

I've checked to make sure that N Terraria isn't blocked by my firewall, I've even turned off my firewall and it didn't help. I don't know how, but I think that when I make the server it doesn't use my computers ip address for the server, but something else. That's the only way it makes sense to me (even though that doesn't make sense either).
