    We have been trying for 3 hours straight now to get a server going to play together, followed the instructions given from the admin and even tried some youtuber's vids to try to get it to work. Nothing has worked, cant connect to either local ip address or the general ip address. Anyone have suggestions?

    Check your firewalls and the host also needs to portforward the port 21025.

    We have forwarded the port already, what should we be looking for in the firewalls?

    You need to make sure that "starbound_server" isn't blocked.

    My friend who is trying to run the server is wondering if he connects to single player or multiplayer as well?

    What do you mean by that?
    Also: Go to your Steam/SteamApps/Common/Starbound/win32 folder and there should also be the starbound_server.exe - start it as administrator.

    Hm. Wasn't that hard for me. Can your friend connect to his own server or are you both unable to join it?
