ipv6 support

Can empyrion have ipv6 servers?

 

what is your reason for the request?

 

i want to host a server with my homepc 24/7 but i dont have a public ipv4 address, they all taken in germany (ipv4 addresses)

 

It is not needed to be supported by Empyrion, that is an OS function, not a game function.

Your Windows box controls the IP Stack, not the game.

 

Empyrion would need to be able to handle IPV6 addresses as well. I have no idea if it can or can't. I agree it's a feature that's becoming increasingly important as we run out of free IPV4 addresses.

 

yes the game needs to support it too, ipv6 is supported by the engine, but not from the game

 

I agree, that the support of IPv6 addresses is necessary. Several ISPs nowadays chose the concept of dual stack lite (multiple customers share a public IPv4 address). This cripples the possibility of such users to host a game.
