How to set up a server?

Right click "Colony Survival" in your Steam library > Properties > Local Files > Browse local files...

There is a file there called "colonyserver"

You run "colonyserver", enter a server name, decide if it is public to all (Steam Public), only visible to your friends (Steam Non-Public), or singleplayer.
You also enter the amount of players you allow on your server, and finally you select a world by "Load a world", or create a new one with "Generate a world".

You may have to open ports to allow your server to show up in the serverlist.

Start the game and go to Multiplayer to join your own server. You can always find it under Join LAN, but make sure to check Join Internet to see if it is accessible to others.

So my Question than is since I already did all of this, how do you go about opening the ports and what are the port numbers?

[The Black Baron]

Ports are: 27016-27018

To configure ports, I go to Configuration Screen > Network and Internet > Display computers and devices in network > Networkinfrastrucure

I dont see how this does anything. What kind of OS do you have that lets you do this?
