RedDevil: My problem specifically is not knowing what goes in the "whateverthecommandis" part

I accidentally cleared my Cltr+B keybind to eject ship.

In-Game UI won't let me press two keys at a time, and didn't know what code call to use inside my custom bzgame_keys config file.

What's the fix?

Also, in 5v5s, I can't select/send units to F7. Is there a fix for that as well?

It works!

With UPNP off, a static IP, and proper port forwarding (one rule: 17770 UDP only), my friend was able to join.

Thanks for all the help.

Apologies GBD et. al., I meant my friend hasn't been able to join MY games. We've both been able to join others' games.

See nettips.rtf installed with BZ2. BZ2 1.3.6.* (as well as 1.0/1.1 patches) uses port 17770/UDP to host. TCP code is long dead, as well as the other ports.

Also, do others see ...

since your router said that,

My router doesn't say that: Battlezone does (in the chat area, pre-game).

i would try manually forwarding the BZ2 ports and make my PC's IP a static IP so the forwarding always points to the same IP address.

also, one thing i have experienced is when copying my ...

Problem Description:

My friend and I both connect to the internet via wireless adapters/routers (on our own respective home networks (not the same one)).

I've both played and created games (others have been able to join) in the past, but my friend is always unable to join games that *I* host ...

I'm returning to BZ after about 8 years of downtime; currently waiting on my CD to come in from Amazon.

I'm looking at this thread trying to plan what I should download once I get a stock install, but the mod-to-patch dependency tree seems pretty hairy - I understand certain MODs work best/only ...
