I am trying to set a multiplayer game but I dont understand how you use the ip addresses. Say my address is 71.220.62.249 . If i am going to host a game on my computer shouldnt everyone including the host enter 71.220.62.249 as the ip number? I've tried that but it doesn't fund any games when the client enters it?
