Players can see server but can only connect when I'm connected. #201

If I'm not in my server the players will load and eventually say "Connection Refused" I host the server off another dedicated server but it is on the same network as the other computer I play the game from. I have hosted servers before on the same computer but not through this Docker container. I think it is a great tool but trying to find out what else I can check to be able to have my players connect.

Other issues I have seen in the threads here is some user disabled SteamNetworking and LiteNetLib. I already have SteamNetworking disabled and have read that LitNetLib could cause more networking issues.

The ports are forwarded I would say obviously because they see the server on the general port and can begin connecting at the very least. And will stay connected if I'm in the server. But once I'm out if they try to connect when I'm not around they are refused.

Thoughts?
