Problem joining Game server

[ShadowMonarch]

Hey,
I am pretty new to Linux and Proxmox. I tried to use my Terraria game server as a VM in Linux. everything is working, I do have a Network connection and its all working. Ports are forwarded etc. But I cant join my Server. But why am I asking it on the Proxmox Forum? The big problem is that I don't even get a notification in the terminal that someone tried to join. It seems like they don't even find the server. Am I missing something? do I have to explicit activate or open something else in Proxmox? Did anyone experience something like this too?
please help
and if its definitely not an issue with my Proxmox than I am sorry

Are you sure you have forwarded *all* the required ports. If my memory serves correctly, then Terraria required quite a bit of them to be forwarded. Did you forward them on the router or via DNAT?

I used my router to port forwarding, and now I tested it with ufw. Both didn't work for me. I forwarded all of the ports. And still no message of trying to reach the server.

If you forward the RDP (Windows) or SSH (Linux) port as well, are you able to reach the VM itself that way? Just to rule out something being wrong with the Terraria-server itself.

OMG I am feeling dumb. I port forwarded all these ports for my rig. But now I looked at it again and saw that a new name appeared. The router identifies the VM as a own PC. It completely makes sense but I didn't thought about it. I am sorry wasting your time.

I don't get it ... can you explain again what you did to solve this issue ... ?!?
Didn't you port-forward to the ip address of the VM ... did you port-forward to the Proxmox box instead ... ?!?
No big deal if you did, but I did port-forward to the LAN ip of the lxc containers and I still have problems connecting with some of the master servers.

See this thread:
Game servers (lxc) cannot be listed and are unreachable for master servers

I am just searching for a solution for my situation and so far I can't seem to find it.
