Is that the IP I send to my friends for them to join my server? If so thank you very much

[matte563]

Yes...

EDIT: http://www.cmyip.com/ or you can use that one.. easier to see stuff etc.. :p

and i guess the port is the one i select in launch options.
so my I'd send them 82.22.67.228:27015 ? Am i right?

Thanks so much matte.

Your now my God XD

EDIT: When i try to connect to that it says connection failed after 4 retrys D:
If i was to not have -hostport in load options, what would it be?
Would there be anything in the console server that would let me find the IP to send to friends

Have you done some portforwarding? And try without -hostport in commandline..
