How To Connect via Mesh to A Computer NOT ON YOUR NETWORK
(This in Misc. because it is not finished)
1. Go into computer 1's router settings (usually http://192.168.1.1 and forward Port _____ to the computer with Scratch
2. Repeat for computer 2 (to prove it works, put it on a diff. network)
3. Go to http://DynDNS.com and set up aliases for both networks external IP addresses (Ex. network 1 = 12.34.56.78 = network1.dnsdojo.net and network 2 = 78.65.43.21 = network2.dnsdojo.net )
4. Connect to network2.dnsdojo.net on computer 1 and network1.dnsdojo.net on computer 2 in scratch.
5. try mesh
UNFORTUNATELY FOR ME TO TRY THIS ON MY OWN AND CALL IT A DONE DEAL, I NEED TO KNOW WHAT PORT MESH OPERATES ON

Hamachi is much easier. Just connect, get the hamachi IP and hey presto, mesh game!

How does that work without port forwarding on the correct port?

It won't work until I know what port Mesh operates on,

I don't know, but it works wonders. It's a VPN service.

It's easier, and you can go online with other players. I posted a guide on how to do this also.
Ugh. Theparadoxial will never come back - lonwol
