Hi! I'm a returning C3/DS veteran, and I see a lot of posts and pages saying that the Docking Station server is now online.
Trying to connect, however, has proven difficult. The game says that either I or the server isn't connected to the internet. I know my credentials so it's not them that pose the problems.
I found some instructions on Creatures Wiki about connecting to the new server; by letting the game create a new server.cfg. However the address in the old and new files is the same so either I already am configured for the new server or the game can't find the new server. I've been trying to connect for ages. Can anyone help?
the current server and port my game insists on:
"Server 0 FriendlyName" Heart
"Server 0 Host" heart.creatures.net
"Server 0 ID" 1
"Server 0 Port" 49152
"Server Count" 1 |

It's probably down. Happens quite often as it's basically now a hobby project. I would recommend just waiting 24 hours then trying again. Unless someone here is connected at the moment - then you may have a problem. |

I see, so 'Heart' is the correct server?
Thanks for the swift reply, btw. |

If you delete server.cfg, and run the game from the engine.exe file, the game will create a new server.cfg file with the current data in 
and Welcome back

On this page you can see if the is online and it's not the provider or firewall causing the problem. If it greets with "It's alive" then there is probably a problem with your connection.
