I am almost 100% sure that OpenPort() doesn't do its bidding in Dream Daemon. Well, if it is, try to fix it in the next version.

If all else fails, you could just block people from joining... I agree. That would probably be the best way to prevent hosting. After the first player joins, no one else is allowed to, or they are allowed to, but are just spectators. | |
In world/New(), spawn one second, check to see if port is something besides 0, and if it is, shut down the world.

In DS you couldn't possibly click the Host button and set up hosting that quickly, so there's no chance of this biting DS in the butt. Lummox JR | |
Which is why it says just that in the documentation.
Can't. Dream Daemon works a different way--blocking hosting with it is a technical nightmare on the internal side of things. Instead you should design your games to be generally aware of the possibility of being hosted in DD and make them cope with it.
