End day 1



Well, here is our progress for now. The GUI is basically done (need menus - main, drop down, right-click) but that is a simple addition.
Also in is networking via Twisted. Never thought I'd say it, but Twisted actually made it really simple, so we should be good to go, we'll see though lol.

Gah, does anyone know how to set it up so that my twisted server can be accessed across the internet, instead of just over my local network? I keep searching and testing things and it just won't work - I have my firewall disabled, as well as my routers - so it really should be working... error code 10061.

I'm on windows vista if that makes a difference...
-sigh- so much for the easy networking...
Do you need to forward the port?
vista has the built in firewall -- are you sure that it is allowing incoming connections to be made to your python process?
georgek had it.  You need to go to your router and forward the correct ports.
Yeah, I tried that and it looks like every port is already open and firewall disabled, I also turned off my firewall.
Tried it with another friend from Pyweek and I could get through to his server either, connection timed out on that one :S

I'll defo look into it more later though
Make sure you aren't hosting on 127.0.0.1. You need to host on 192.x.x.x or whatever your actual ip is. That's thrown me off before. If it's not that then I dunno.
The things is, I can't seem to get Twisted to host on a specific server using Realms - it only takes a port when you start the server :S
It must be that that is the problem, since I've managed to do this before with other servers, but not with Twisted...
OK, well teh server works on a teamates computer, it just seems to be me not being able to host it correctly - interesting...
