Server Help

Ok first off i want to host my zone off of my computer so people can come in but of course im behind a rounter/network. So i was wondering what do i have to do to host my zone off of my own computer or server (comming soon) so that i can get people and me to come in it. Any ideas? Ok for my second qustion, currently all i have is a bot that can die that somone gave to me. I was thinking of a code to make it follow a player and possibly shoot. For the following part would it be somthing like: *get players position* *warp* ect. Then as i thought more into it it would never be able to shoot so how could you do it mabey like by pixel? I am willing to possibly make this on my own but remember i am not that smart so i do need extra help

Thanks in advance.

As for your first question, you must port forward the zone and biller ports that you are using. You can connect to your router by hitting 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.168.1 in your Address bar. Then, after that, simply load up subbill and subgame2 and I guess you're ready to go.

Please, use paragraphs to make it easier to read your posts.

If you are behind a router you'll need to open your router for incoming connections and forward those connections to the computer which is running the zone.
Most routers support this port forwarding feature, you'll be able to find the settings concerning this feature in your router's setting.
Because most routers need to be controlled by using a web-interface you'll need to find out how to get there, for that you should read this thread, or if you have a Linksys router, read this one.

For your second question, get someone to help you.
What you want to do may not be possible.
