How do you connect to a game running thru the daemon? I run my world with it and then start up DS and type in my worlds address JUST like it says in DD and the connection always fails. But I can run the world in single user mode and then click host and everything works fine.

To join the game on the same computer as DreamDaemon all you have to do is type in the port it is running on.

If i were you i would type byond://localhost:YOURport on your dream seeker ALT box and press ENTER.

thats should work 100%.

Remember:
byond://localhost:YOURport <-------- it should contain your port!

I always do byond://myIP:myport, but that requires knowing what your IP is. example: byond://123.456.789.12:1337

Are you 100% sure you know what your IP is? Cause there's really no other reason that byond://yourIP:yourport shouldn't work.

Are you running a firewall while running your Dream Daemon?

I run into weird problems with hosting in DD too. I usually have to try 10, 20, or even more times to connect to dream daemon from dream seeker on the same computer. This is with localhost:someport. internetip:someport usually works on the first or second try.

You can also just input the port number, and it should automatically add the "byond://" bit and your IP address.

For example, if I'm running a world on port 3000 on the local machine, I enter the following (and only the following) into Dream Seeker's command line thingy:

<code>3000</code>

That's IT. Works for me! =) Means you don't have to mess around with IP addresses.

Evil giant .BMP files...
I run into the same problem too, when trying to connect to localhost. I think it may be a BYOND bug. Connecting to an actual IP address seems to make it so you don't run into a bug.
