Im getting this erro, what am i doing wrong?
23:59:27 Navigation: User registration failed

You need to forward whatever port you have specified in navserv.json, then use your external IP address (found by visiting www.whatsmyip.org)
I think this is a permissions error, if you're on Windows, you'll need to run the binary as administrator or run it from a user location (documents / desktop, etc). If you're on Linux, either run with sudo or run in the home directory (/home/user).
This is a very general error, usually associated with .NET so I find it marginally odd that you're getting it, still, make sure you have downloaded the Visual C++ Runtime environment, linked in the main post and here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/down....aspx?id=48145 - it is the most likely cause of this error. Ensure you download and install the 32-bit version, even if you are on a 64-bit operating system, because the navigation server is a 32-bit application. The 32-bit one is named
vc_redist.x86.exe.

All good!
Simply stops working, either on my computer or on my vps. This is really sad
Can you access your router via a common IP address? Usually, you can get to it on 192.168.0.1, from there you should look for firewall or security options, then find port forwarding. Once in, you need to forward the port listed in navserv.json to the internal IP of the machine which is hosting it. To find the internal IP of the machine hosting the nav server, simply open a terminal and run ifconfig for Linux and find the inet addr for the internal network adapter (the IP will be something like either 192.168.x.x or 10.121.x.x) - this will be your internal address. To find it on Windows, it's the same process but using ipconfig.
If it's that bad, help us do something about it and provide information on what's going wrong for you. We would love to have released a more finished product for the navigation server, but sadly we've been forced to release it now to alleviate problems with the public server being attacked.
I'm working in an industry where I have learned enough about networking and servers that I can help people work around these issues, but when complaints are "this sucks" and "simply stops working", it's very difficult to understand what's going wrong, let alone to advise on how it might be rectified.
Can I create more rooms?
