ENET_HOST_ANY #7

Closed wpbirney closed 6 years ago

wpbirney commented 6 years ago

using ENET_HOST_ANY, makes enet listen on the ipv6 device if available ( at least on linux ) this isn't a problem but i was wondering if there is a ENET_HOSTANY variant that forces ipv4

I dont see one in the source, but i figure i could add it quite easily

edit further digging seems that ENetAddress expects an in6addr and seems to only* support ipv6 now

Currently there is no way to force listen to ipv4 only via ENET_HOST_ANY directive from what I know. However, ENet should support both ipv4 and ipv6, not just ipv6.

Have you tried binding the ipv4 address, and check wether it's gonna listen to ipv4 only? The usual address for listen-all on ipv4 is 0.0.0.0

IPv4 supported via IPv4-mapped IPv6 address.

@inlife attempting to bind to 0.0.0.0 still had it listening on 'udp6' according to netstat. I will look into doing it via a ipv4-mapped ipv6 address. Hopefully soon everyone will have a public ipv6 address, I only have two players that have complained about the ipv4 issue
