Someone to help me with mesh

Okay, I've seen a mesh chat by Magnie and it seemed like it wasn't really mesh. I actually made a note app and was wondering if someone could get it to work with my app so you can send notes. There are NO stupid answers. (as long as it's simple fast and FREE.)
It also must be on scratch.

< Without Hamachi! >
< Help Wanted! >
Thanks to everyone who helped!

Re: Someone to help me with mesh

Hamachi is required for Mesh to connect to the internet, but it's free.
But locally, with another computer in the same house, Mesh is able to connect with the other computer.

tl;dr: There are NO answers at all.

Re: Someone to help me with mesh

dadkid101: I used Remote Sensor Connections for my chat project. You can host a "world wide mesh" if you port forward 42001. You can Google how to port forward, there are hundreds of tutorials.  smile

rdococ: Hamachi is not required to make a "public" Mesh. Hamachi is just a way to get around port forwarding.  smile

Which Program to forward to? Scratch isn't an option.

Choose either Games or Other if Scratch isn't in the list. What options are there?

If you don't feel like googling it, then here's a short answer.
Go to 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1 in your browser.  In the popup, enter the network admin password.  Then select the interal IP you want it to point to, and choose port 42001.
If I forgot anything, please tell me.

What would be cool is if you could choose what port mesh used.  I guess that should go in my mod.
